I do a lot of multi-lane metro driving in the early morning/late night and find the left lane sight seeing tourists or the wanna-be lunatic race car drivers a danger to life and limb. However, it is almost a habit with me to avoid the far left lanes during those hours, not only because of...

Many of those malcontents are politicians, or wanna-be politicos, looking for votes and have to be perceived as "doing something for the ________________" (fill in the blank with latest trending issues). some of my favorite latest issues are: For the children the environment our future the...

"Tis but a flesh wound"

Remember sighing that special contract? You know, the one that has the part about "for better or worse"? She's gotcha ya.

Same with Los Angeles. Lakers and Dodgers all seem to cause riots. Don't know about the Clippers and Chargers yet. Oops correction - Civil Disturbances, same broken glass and burned out trash cans and cars though.

My irksome emailer is Brownells. I get several a day touting some 'great deals'. I solved my irk by adding a filter, they just get sent to a separate folder as they are received. I can read/delete when I want.

You would be considered a Wizard or Warlock considering your modern attitudes and knowledge of math, science, medicine and a wealth of other "ordinary" knowledge. If you were lucky, you might be highly respected but you might also be feared and burned at the stake.

Some people call them locomotives.

Hot days of Summer on a Sunday morning dressed in sloppy shirt, shorts and floppy sandals or slippers. Open the slider around 6am to get the morning breeze through the house while I cook eggs, bacon/sausage, English Muffin and coffee. Then going to the outside table and eating while watching...

How was your walk on the wild side? Anybody asked how many rounds the magazine held or why were you only shooting it single shot?

I was a chaser a Camp Pendleton and took an in-transit prisoner to the Brig. His final destination was United States Disciplinary Barracks (USDB), colloquially known as Leavenworth, to start a sentence of 20 to life. He did something like that, told me his story but there was absolutely no...

Seems like descaling sets off the self destruct timer, at least on the 3 Keurig's I have had. About the 2 year mark I am forced to do something, like descaling, because the 8oz pour dispenses about 4.5 -5 oz. I just think of them as a coffee maker that you lease for 2 years then turn it in and...
