The downside of us changing our business model from a coffee/breakfast café to a dinner/wine bar venue is that my working days are now extended to 12-13 hours. Mostly on my aging feet. Well, that's what the customers seem to want, and twenty bucks is twenty bucks. I'm...
SP when we first met. Nothing humorous from me today. WebDom and I are marking the 4th anniversary of the passing of the finest human she and I have ever known, the mind behind this site and the creator of our community. Life has gone on, WebDom married and bore a...
We had an election in our little town, which encompasses both our village and the surrounding areas. Our village is, of course, Bluer than Blue, the surrounding areas Redder than Red. It involved a school board seat and the inevitable tax increase "for the children."...
Never give up. Never give up. Never give up. After all the NPR Lady ordeals, I've been trying once again. And this latest one may even be ready for the first of my two major filter tests: an evening with WebDom. If she gets past that, the much more rigorous filter...
Our university is sponsoring an Election Night Watch Party this week. We were admonished in the invitation: The event is non-partisan, and a cordial and respectful place to watch the 2024 election results as they come in. There will be food, an electoral college map...

My health has taken a bad turn. Nasty ass flu which has me fatigued, coughing, diarrhea (I do not recommend that combination), fever... but bless the amazing Kaiser who has stayed by my side and tried comforting and guarding. A pediatrician friend made some...
I get reminded of my Hell is other people. And Links just proves it.
This time it’s different for sure! Links are pretty much the same.
If I don’t get trained out of it, I’m a bigot. And I’ll prove that with Links.

What is the absolutely unlikeliest sign you’d ever expect me to be carrying at a demonstration? Pull up some Links and find out.
In which my tale of local controversy is postponed because of the Plague. And Links.
As much as I hated the Bush dynasty, I hate them more now. Among all the other stupid shit Bush The Elder did, the one with the longest consequences was probably the ADA. And as many problems and inconveniences as this has caused for me in the past, the latest...
I have visitors, I have stories, I have Links.
This is the shittiest of holiday weekends. And these are the Links to match.
All good things come to an end. But the stupidity of Links doesn’t.
Much comedy packed into our opening week. Details just a click away, and Links. And Birthdays.
It’s been Opening Week at Oberlin East, and a long one. Links are shorter.
And once again, I call upon your creativity. And Links.
A mini-Jewsday. And Links as well.
