I rarely know what you’re talking about.

One down.

I’m pleased to report that we just sold E’s goddamn ‘96 Saturn — which for years stubbornly ran pretty well, thus refusing to give us any concrete reason to get rid of it — to a very nice Tanzanian student. We gave him less than the asking price. Mainly because for one, he’s in school; [...]

Tiny E and I dined at the lovely cafeteria at the Tulsa City-County Municipal Complex yesterday; she said they had salty gravy, which was more than enough to get me there.
In addition to the guy who, upon hearing TE blow her nose, suggested orange juice and possibly V8, the cafeteria featured this bit of quiet [...]

aaaaaaAAAAAAAAAAA!!!!!!!

Um, right. So I came across this while looking online for something completely unrelated today:

Yeah. Click on the picture for a little more detail, assuming you want it, and I certainly fucking understand if you don’t. That is, for the record, a hulking, breasted man-pig wearing nothing but a towel in the background. Apparently he’s [...]

Click.

So in the name of taking far more advantage of my soon-to-be-gone educational discount at the Apple Store, I figured I oughta go ahead and buy myself an almost completely unnecessary new computer.
And it’s fucking awesome. It can do many fucking awesome things. Here are a couple of fucking awesome things it’s done so far.

“Simulated [...]

So on “Sesame Street” just now, Gordon just got through reminiscing about being in a power trio with Bob and Luis back in the late ’60s. In the flashback, Bob was affecting an English accent because he thought it’d give them more cred.
My question, then, is this: How is it that after like 40 years, [...]

(Sound of fingers crossing.)

A couple are coming by to look at the house today. Our realtor says they’ve got a baby themselves. I’m hoping that means they’ll understand the crap all over our house. Which I vacuumed off this morning. So that the house is now filled with crap which has less dust on it.
If my unrealistic expectations [...]

Oh, that is it.

All right, Internets. ELB and I are moving to Chicago, and there’s not a damn thing you can do to change our minds.
Go ahead, tell us it’s more expensive to live there. Tell us it gets cold there during winter. Tell us we don’t know anybody there. And I’ll tell you you’re a LIAR! A [...]

fun fact!

Did you know?
• When a guy comes to your house to figure out where the short in your heat pump is, it can end up costing $888?
Did you know this? I, personally, myself, did not know this. Until fairly recently.

holy crap.

So. Somebody sent me the greatest thing in the universe, for today anyway.
It’s a video, from YouTube, of a song aptly titled “Stop the Madness.” The forward-thinking reader will not be surprised to learn that “Stop the Madness” is about drugs, and not doing them. That same forward thinker, though, might be impressed with the [...]

Internets, please just believe me when I tell you we have so incredibly much to tell you, so very, very soon. And we will. I promise. I will, anyway. But not yet. Because right now there are more important things to do. Like visit the official blog of Doubleshot Coffee Company, Tulsa’s very finest coffee [...]
