Good intentions always lead to bad destinations it seems. When Sam Walton created Walmart, it seemed like a one-stop shop for groceries, household products and goods, personal hygiene products and basic home maintenance and car repair items. At one point, you could buy live fish and lobsters. And Amazon seemed to hop on the digitalContinue reading “Buc-ees Is Becoming The Next Amazon And Walmart (And That’s Not A Good Thing)”

I Believe You Have My Stapler
I don’t need to staple many papers a lot lately as the world is becoming more and more paperless. But I couldn’t resist buying a Swingline stapler in Royal Red or Rio Red color. This became popular following the 1999 movie Office Space. Yet Swingline never used this color prior to this movie. It’s aContinue reading “I Believe You Have My Stapler”
Why We Need Jimothy Right Now More Than He Needs Us
Raccoons walk a fine line like opossums. They’re not exactly bad animals but they have the abilities to be pests. Some call them “trash pandas” for the ways they go after garbage and food for cats and dogs that’s left out. I used to have problems with opossums who would give me a busted lookContinue reading “Why We Need Jimothy Right Now More Than He Needs Us”
Vince Gilligan Helms ‘X-Files’ Episode On Dangers Of Wishes
With everyone obsessing over Obsession, I recently watched an X-Files episode that did the trope better and shorter. It’s also the first episode that Vince Gilligan directed of the show as well as writing. Gilligan had already established himself by mixing quirky and twisted dark comedy into precious episodes. I like “Bad Blood” which isContinue reading “Vince Gilligan Helms ‘X-Files’ Episode On Dangers Of Wishes”
Today Was A Good Day
Well, I’m finally getting my medical cannabis card as I heard my application has been approved. I had a difficult time going to sleep last night as I was hurting bad. So I got that going for me, which is nice.
Could Burnham Be The U.K.’s Lucky Seventh PM In A Decade?
Let’s be honest and no cheating, can you name all Prime Ministers of the United Kingdom? It’s ok. Neither can I without Googling it? Remember that Simpsons episode where Barney and Wade Boggs debate over the best PM ever. Barney likes Lord Palmerston while Boggs’ choice is Pit the Elder. Well they could have aContinue reading “Could Burnham Be The U.K.’s Lucky Seventh PM In A Decade?”
Felicidades Spain!
I’ve been battling a stomach bug so today has been very lax as I recover my energy. But I’d like to say Congratulations! or Felicidades! to Spain for winning the World Cup this year despite you know who trying to steal the thunder. And despite all the problems with FIFA, hopefully one day they willContinue reading “Felicidades Spain!”
No Smog But A Nice Sunset
Thankfully there’s none of the smog coming from the Canadian wildfires even though a friend in northern New Jersey posted a pic of the smog in the sky. People are always burning brush here so it’s hard to tell especially with the campsites nearby. Still, it is a lovely sunset.
Have A Great Bastille Day!
It’s July 14. While that day may not have much significance in American history, it was the day the French said no more. During the early days of the French Revolution, the people proved they can be a strong force and stormed the Bastille, an armoury, prison and fortress. The take over of the facilityContinue reading “Have A Great Bastille Day!”
Who Are They Fooling?
I’m almost certain that if Sen. Lindsey Graham hadn’t died over the weekend, the office of Sen. Mitch McConnell wouldn’t have released a questionable photo of him and his wife (possible widow) Elaine Chao. Graham was the Republican Senator from South Carolina who was often controversial and more on that in another post. His peopleContinue reading “Who Are They Fooling?”
