I’m kind to humans and animals and I am a raging knucklehead. I occasionally joke around. I changed my avatar to the very distinguished Panda Man.

This song is as relevant today as it was in 1979. I hope you’ll listen and enjoy. May you all be well.

I have a minor issue with Apple Music listing Nirvana as Classic Rock. They either don’t know what that term means, or they’re trying to make me feel old in a passive aggressive manner. Nirvana is Grunge. That’s it. Flannel shirts and mumbling. That’s not Elvis, for sure.

It seems to me that there’s a lot of misdirection going on around here, like a magic act. By here, I mean the news. There’s ICE doing bad things here and the Epstein documents are over there. Look, there’s war in Palestine and Ukraine. Possible war with Venezuela. What’s really happening? Honestly.

It strikes me as odd when someone says, “This is a picture of me when I was younger…” Literally every picture of you is one of you when you were younger. If they said, “This is a picture of me when I was a baby…” I’d understand that. You’re clearly not a baby because you can form a sentence.

Good news: the Dallas Cowboys will not lose today.

Bad news: they’re waiting for Monday.

Just finished watching “Death by Lightning” on Netflix. It’s alright. I was able to watch the whole thing. Your mileage may vary. My wife said every character should wear a name tag because everyone had a great big beard. That part does make it a bit hard to follow.

I’m watching this multi-part documentary about North Korea. I’m fascinated with this country. It’s deeply weird and talk about income inequality, man, they are out there. For a country that claims to be communist, they sure don’t spread the wealth. We’re getting there, though.

This Thanksgiving, I will steer the conversation away from politics into religion. That’ll show ‘em.

What’s the worst side dish someone could bring to Thanksgiving dinner? I think green bean casserole has to be way up there.

The philosophers from the band Chicago asked and answered an existential question. “Does anybody really know what time it is?” The answer is “25 or 6 to 4.”

@morna6.bsky.social You know you can just shut off DMs. That way, you don’t have to fuss around deleting them.

Let me see if I have this right. We need more immigrants because Americans don’t have talent. But, we keep rounding up immigrants and disappearing them. Who would want immigrate here? I would question their sanity. “Oh, you’re from India? Get in the back of the van. Back to Somalia!”

I’m trying to understand this fifty year mortgage thing. The average first time home buyer is roughly forty years old. Cool. Add forty and fifty and you get ninety, so the idea is that consumers just pay interest at whatever the Fed decides for the rest of their lives, gaining minimal equity.

You know what’s funny about YoutubeTV? Sure, they don’t have Disney/ABC properties anymore, but they do have an entire channel devoted to PickleBall. I’m not talking about your grandparents’ league. I mean full on championship level PickleBall!

Tell me some good news, please. It can be anything from a rescued animal to a foiled terror plot to something that happened to you recently. Anything happy or fun is good news. I want to keep positive thoughts in my mind. I’ll start. I found a penny heads up the other day. Beat that. Please, please.

Fun fact: Koalas have fingerprints indistinguishable from human fingerprints. So, bring a koala when you’re planning a crime. Throw off those investigators. It will be an adorable crime scene. I can’t wait to see those tiny handcuffs. Also, beware. All koalas have chlamydia.

In physics, there is a problem with perpetual motion. There’s friction, entropy, all of it, but if you think about it and have smoked enough weed, you’ll realize that a cat always lands on its feet and buttered toast always lands butter side down. Create a cat/toast array. Perpetual motion solved.💥

I saw recently that Mike Judge confirmed that Arlen, TX of “King of the Hill” is based on real life Richardson, TX. That happens to be where I grew up. I’m not at all surprised. I wonder if this show hits different for people outside of Texas. I can relate to all of it. He grew up in Garland.

Something is telling me that I shouldn’t try to get on an airplane anytime soon. Maybe it’s the overworked, unpaid ATC staff, or the grumpy, unpaid TSA workers wanting to shove a wand up my ass. I think I’d rather drive to a destination than to fly. Maybe I’m overly sensitive. That’s a possibility.

Dateline Chicago: ICE agent attacked with a hot dog. The agent revealed that “There was a scent of poppy seed bun and the pickle nearly speared my tactical armor. There was another offender with an Italian beef sandwich. I feared for my life when I sensed the unmistakable odor of giardiniera.”

Hi, everyone. It’s Friday and I hope you’ll have a splendidly peaceful weekend. Be well, people! ✌️❤️

Question for our Millennial and Gen Z friends: Do you like vintage media like vinyl, CDs, movies on DVD or BluRay, classic video games, or anything else like that? I’d love to hear what you have to say. Thank you and be well!

I just had this random memory. When I was 18, I visited Montréal. I was at a hostel with a couple of guys from Algeria. We frequented a brassiere that boasted a pool table. They never saw one before. In my broken French, I was able to explain the rules of 8 ball. They spoke only French and Arabic.
