This week, we’ll start with something funny (well, we hope it’s funny)...something disappointing...something a little bit spacy...and then, well, who really knows?
The Other Half uncovered this little gem in social media land and shared it with yours truly...it’s called...
“If 2020 were a math...
This week, we’re going to shoot the moon, so to speak. We’re kinda havin’ to do that because Plan A didn’t work out, as sometimes happens.
Here’s a bit of a follow-up to a previous item...
...yours truly spent some more outside in the dark of night in what proved to be several fruitless attempts to...
It was a dark and stormy night...
Before we get to the good stuff, just wanted to ask: has anybody managed to spot the comet which is supposed to have been visible in the early morning...and early in the night...sky?
From what I understand, the comet is called something like C/2020 F3 NEOWISE*....
This week is going to be about trying to tie up some loose ends...well, as best as one can do in the midst of a pandemic. Seems like you just about have a loose end tied up, and the other end starts to unravel...
Don’t know about you, but before the pandemic started, yours truly sometimes wondered...
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.

Thought you folks might want an update on how Bob has been helping out yours truly during some of my work at home adventures...

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.
As I...
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...
