Went home early last Thursday after another grueling morning of toil at The Paragraph Factory which involved various combinations of the 26 letters of the alphabet.
Walked in the door and proudly proclaimed to The Other Half: “I’m normal.” The initial response may have been a barely perceptible...
Thought you folks might want an update on how Bob has been helping out yours truly during some of my work at home adventures...
Bob, as you may recall, is one of our two cats. Bob, in a word, or two, has a lot of personality. Our understanding is that he is a barn cat who was born in Alto Pass. Bob...
Lions...and tigers...and bears...
Didn’t see any of those critters during the past week. Did see some young turtles...and a young snake...and some “Jesus bugs” of undetermined age.
To tell you the truth, I had not heard of “Jesus bugs” until last Saturday evening. That was when The Other Half and...
It would be kind of tough these days to not have any friends. That’s why I visited with Bearnard one day last week.
We’ll get back to Bearnard in just a bit...if you’ll bear with me, I wanted to share a “feel good” story I ran across one day recently on the internet. Once, since it was on the...
Thank goodness for the little things...and some of the big things, too...
These days, it sure seems like the little things mean a lot. For example, last Friday morning, yours truly made a quick visit to one of our local retailers. Had to pick up a few essentials...as in Goldfish crackers.

WARNING: This week’s column is unusually long, which might suggest that it is unusually good...or maybe just more unusual than usual...so...off we go...
...two bees...or not two bees...
...that is not a question...just an observation. We saw two bees buzzing around on clover in our front yard last...
Dear readers: Hi. How are you doing? Well, I hope. This week, we are going to have “the talk.” Yup. The birds. And the bees. Well, a “B.” And a bug, too.
First, I wanted to mention my crazy fantasy to do just like Forrest Gump did in the movie of the same name, at least in the sense of going for a...
This week, a bird, bird, bird is the word...because, well, everybody knows that the bird is the word...
...sorry...just thought you might like to see some photographs of birds I’ve seen while out wandering around during the past couple of weeks...
Meanwhile...
...as if there wasn’t already enough...
Just a bit of a note to start this week...to the driver of the pickup truck who passed a school bus which had stopped to deliver meals...that’s all...
My buddy Bob continues to very helpful while I am doing some of the work at home stuff. Bob, as you may recall, is one of our cats. One day last...
This week, how about a challenge for all you song writers out there?
See if you can up with some sort of lyrical expression about Al Kaline and John Prine. Maybe a song about the two of them, with a little bit of the coronavirus thrown in, just because.
I’m guessing that a lot of folks around our...
