The East Palestine charity scandal connects to … oh, it figures.

Remember earlier this year when a train derailed in East Palestine, Ohio? Remember the chemical spill and the burning oil cars and all that? Good. Now pay attention to this little tweet by a certain member of Congress. Ah, Marjorie Taylor Greene, stomping her cloven hoof once again to blame Joe Biden for everything. As…

Lauren Boebert suffers from “Little Red Hen” Syndrome

I know, I know, it’s another blog post featuring Lauren Boebert, the cocoa-nut from Colorado. Trust me. This woman is so dumb, she would stare for 30 minutes at a can of frozen orange juice because the label said “Concentrate.” Anyway … As you know, Rep.

“Alexa, recap my Sunday.” “Okay.”

The past two days were lots of fun, and I could write three or four blog posts to cover all the information. But instead … I’ll lump everything into one blog post for today. Starting off with my new household tenant. I purchased an Alexa Echo Dot. Yeah, yeah, I’m sure all of you are…

What’s Up in the Neighborhood, August 5, 2023

By the time you read this, I’ll be on the road, delivering my six photos and one rug to the New York State Fair in Syracuse for judging and consideration. On the way back, I might stop at that Amish grocery store in Fort Plain, they’ve got some tasty treats there and it’s a great…
