So the first thing I hear on NPR news this morning is about Governor Sanford. After so famously going all John C. Calhoun on President Obama by refusing stimulus money, it turns out the Governor was visiting his Argentinian mistress.

Alex waved to me frantically while I started mowing the lawn.
I’d already had some qualms about mowing the lawn to begin with. It was one of those rare times when I’m really into mowing, so I wasn’t trying to get my lazy ass out of any work. Earlier a lot of [...]

The women in my life have a big influence on what I listen to when they’re around. I have extreme tastes in music, and don’t object when the Queen of my Universe or the Cat of my Universe object to a song or two.
The disadvantage that Dolly (the Cat of my [...]

I’ve only watched one football game this season. DOUG doesn’t get cable anymore, and LIZ and Brian hate the Patriots, so I just didn’t watch. I can’t even remember who the Patiots beat that week. I still love football, but I found plenty of other things to do this fall and winter [...]

Last spring, when gas was over $4.00 a gallon, I started paying attention to my gas mileage a little more. Queen of My Universe got me a computer to hook up to the Korean Tiger’s brain which computes real-time gas mileage. I was having a lot of fun with it, driving slow [...]

I met this woman once while I was limo driving who let it be known to everyone after two drinks that she was Irish and she worked at a crematorium. In every drunken conversation, she would artfully steer the conversation to the topic of occupations. When asked what she did, she said

Fat Babies
by Lyle Lovett and Robert Earl Keen
I said I don’t like hippies
And I don’t like cornbread
And I don’t like much
I said I don’t hippies
And I don’t like cornbread
And I don’t like much
But that’s okay
Fat babies have no pride

Fat babies have no pride
And that’s okay
Who needs pride
I like you
‘Cause you [...]

What a great ceremony! Although the Prez (so great to call him that) has been kicking some butt already, the real work begins now. I really enjoyed the ceremony and speech, but it didn’t make me all giddy like I felt when we found out the election result.
I think the really [...]
