So WP offered me this today.
If you could un-invent something, what would it be? A lot. What WOULD I un-invent? I’ll start with Doordash and Grubhub, and other delivery platforms. When we were kids, it was a big deal to have food delivered. Even bigger, since we lived 22 miles out of town and couldn’t do it unless we were…

Even more “Darn You Kids!”
The Phone Company I’ll bet some of you remember when the phone company was Ma Bell. You got your phone bill from [your area] Bell, probably had a rotary phone somewhere with an actual, physical bell in it. We can debate the merits and downfalls of the great deregulation all day, and at the end…

Sick, part 2
more shopping funthe reverse karenOh, just show me some pictures Do you ever notice how your sleep gets really out of whack when you’re sick? Mine is already out of whack naturally, so I would think maybe it could be back “in whack”? No such luck. I collapsed on the couch in the office around…

Sick
Well, once again, nature has turned out to be a dick. We’re both knocked flat with what we hope are colds. She’s of the opinion that ‘ignorance is bliss’, and after reading the instructions for the covid test, so am I. I live out in the middle of nowhere, and if I need to stay…

Ah, the holidays
And, like that, I’m out. I guess I’m just good on holidays. Every year, the Christmas season seems to start earlier and earlier. Now there’s ‘Pre-Black-Friday’ sales. And this says nothing about the people who have to work during this season. I’m not big on giving gifts to people that already have stuff. I want…

Imagery
You all know I obsess over radio antennas, and the imagery that they provide. I’ve found some new sources, so, without further ado… My favorite of these are the ones in Nevada. Who knew there were tall mountains in Nevada? California has a large number of these, and they move around. They use them to…

The Friday News
I know it’s Saturday, or for some, Sunday. Just go with it. This is something my father used to do back in the day. 2001, to be exact. I think these were typed out about 8 feet from where I sit now, on a computer that now sits upstairs, mostly full of cat hair. A…

More Weirdness about Town
I’m pretty sure I’d ruin some laundry were I to see something like this riding my bumper. I couldn’t find the owner, but this is pretty unique, I think. When I was a high-schooler, we had the Fort Collins Beaver Patrol that used to ride the main drag in trucks like these, but smaller Toyotas…

Weather dickdom
It’s summer, and it’s probably hot where you are. It’s hot where I am, that’s for sure. Dickdom is a creeping, subtle thing that finds its way into people before they know it. You ever watch the weather, and there’s a map covered with 3-digit temperatures, and across the whole thing in big letters it…

Don’t be a dick.
That’s it. That’s the post. And right there, is a prime example of being a dick. You were expecting more (which I will happily provide), but I led you on. Or did I? Dickdom is a creeping disease, that most people don’t know they have until they’ve been being dicks for years. And it sucks…
