Ok, yeah, that was bad. I expect more from myself in this space than cringe-worthy puns and dad jokes...

Socks for Social Distancing, Day 14
In a way, though, these are the perfect socks for such a missed occasion. The beer bottles are a nice call out to the event, but if you'll note, they are green bottles. And it's certified objective fact that green beer bottles are a terrible idea.
Socks for Social Distancing, Day 7
I was thinking happy thoughts and having fond remembrances this morning of the Before Times, lo, 10 days ago, when a person in America could saunter up to a bar and grill—hell, even an Applebee’s, if you were pressed for a spot—and order a big sloppy cheeseburger and a cold beer. They were good times, … Continue reading Socks for Social Distancing, Day 7
A Saint Patrick’s Day Primer
The calendar once against says today is March 17th. You know what means, right? It’s Saint Patrick’s Day, aka, the Feast of Saint Patrick, the one day of the year dedicated to the patron saint of Ireland, a man I’m pretty sure was canonized more for his conversion of Irish pagans to Catholicism than anything … Continue reading A Saint Patrick’s Day Primer

Being Friday evening already, I have little doubt that most of you are busy readying yourselves for the inevitable carnival of debauchery that comes with the arrival of the weekend. Well, unless you're like me, in which case you're planning to sit in the comfy chair later tonight, play a few cutthroat rounds of Words … Continue reading A Post Of Many Posts
An Independence Day primer
Before you get your suspenders all twisted up in an uncomfortable, constricting knot (and that goes for both the over-the-shoulder variety as well as the around-the-calves-to-hold-up-my-Mad-Men-esque-black-socks), there will be no history lessons associated with this post. Which is not to say it won’t become some kind of lesson for the children of tomorrow, a cautionary … Continue reading An Independence Day primer
Unrelated things you should know about
Some people get to travel to interesting, exciting places for business. New York City, Paris, London, New Orleans, Las Vegas. I also get to travel for business from time to time. And when I do, boy, do I ever get to go to some, um, smallish, largely unknown places. Places that occasionally might appear as … Continue reading Unrelated things you should know about
Repost: Life Lessons
[Author's Note: I'm taking the week off from writing new material, more or less, because, well, because. So instead, I'm going to repost a couple of old entries that may or may not have a thematic or referential similarity. In other word's, there might be some reason to my rhyme, but then again, they might be … Continue reading Repost: Life Lessons
Gone Puddin’
I know, we haven’t talked in a while. It’s, like, I haven’t been around for the past few days or something. Well, actually, it’s not like that at all. It’s exactly that. I haven’t been. Around, that is. I’ve been in Connecticut. Yes, that state in New England. Because I had to do [redacted]. Truth … Continue reading Gone Puddin’
A new craft brew and let’s play ball!
Every now and then you just happen to in the right place at the right time to learn something new. Something that enriches your life, grabs you by the hair, calls you a worthless scumbug, smacks you a few times and then leaves you in the gutter overnight to contemplate just how awesome your life … Continue reading A new craft brew and let’s play ball!
