Our little village is having a No Kings protest today at our traffic light. As usual, I will show up with drinks and snacks to hand out. And as usual, I will be painfully aware that these people are actually just fine with kings, they just want King Obama back in one...
"Not today, you filthy old man." We seemed to have slipped past the equinox and into official Spring without much notice. Especially outside here where there's still sheets of ice and piles of snow. We might actually have above-freezing temps today, which would be...
Oddly, we had our local election in Glibs Gulch on Wednesday rather than Tuesday because of a state law forbidding elections on St. Patrick's Day. That seems counterintuitive since before voting is absolutely the most appropriate time to take a few slugs. In any case,...
Just when I think things can’t get goofier… well, anyway, Links.
It’s coming! It’s coming! So are the Links.
He’s back and the sheep are frightened. But not of the Links.
Banjos is restringing. So I’m taking over Links temporarily.
It was inevitable. Just like Links.
“What the fuck is he talking about?” Clearly not Links.
Today we celebrate Artaxerxes, alcohol, naked woman, and Links.
Your people have your holidays, (((we))) have (((ours))). And I’m getting ready, but not neglecting…Links.
I managed to make yesterday more exciting than planned. But not more exciting than Links.
My students wanted to know if I'd cancel classes on Pi Day. I told them that would be irrational. I did expect them to arrange their desks in a circle, but that backfired when the students behind me started making funny noises, as in "fart under the arm" noises. I...
I’m back and so is my pile of work. But there’s Links for consolation.
Back from New Orleans with traces of my liver intact. And Links.
The Old Man and Tomb Raider head off today. But not before Links.
The students have poured out of here in droves. leaving me to do Links on my own.
I have managed to reduce my teaching load the old fashioned way. And before you vanish, here’s Links.
What a mess! So let’s get distracted with Links.
Perhaps it’s better for everyone that Spud is only here 4 times a year. Better for my liver, at least. Anyhoo, Links.
Tomb Raider is off to a dance festival, so I actually have a weekend to get work done. And drop some Links.
So the Taylor Swift show is on tonight, but unfortunately will be sporadically interrupted by some football game. Spud is in town, so WebDom, l0b0T, Tomb Raider, and I will be gathered over at his place to see if we can consume sufficient intoxicants to blot out the...
Non-academic business brought me down to Pittsburgh whence I limn this ode to the stupidity of the world. If Lamar Jackson hadn't done an epic choke two weeks ago, I'd be trolling the populace with my Ravens sweatshirt. Alas, that opportunity vanished. But I did...
Rumors of my disappearance are greatly exagg.. oh, wait, they’re not.
We're between snowstorms and the temperatures have been hovering just above freezing. So of course, the trails are pure muck, my back yard is a marsh, and Dog is rolling in it, then coming back in the house and jumping on the furniture. Oh, and besides the numerous...
