I respect and enjoy the original 12-issue limited comic series (and later graphic novel) (and later movie) (and later TV series) Watchmen. What Alan Moore and Dave Gibbons did with their comic story was nothing short of revolutionary and inspirational. Where else can you take re-interpretations of the old Charlton Comics superheroes and turn them…

Walter Masterson is a New York City-based comedian and satirist. And he’s been having a tremendous amount of fun lately in trolling the far-right. Why, who would suspect a man who’s wearing a button-down shirt and cargo shorts, all festooned with the stars and stripes, of being a provocateur? I mean, have you NEVER heard…

On occasion, I will stop at one of the local fast-food breakfast emporiums on the way to work. And yesterday, I felt the itch to order some food at Dunkin’ Donuts. Yes, I still call it Dunkin’ Donuts, as far as I’m concerned, the word “Donuts” is still part of the company’s name. Normally, I…

I’ve been having a lot of fun with this drive-in speaker art kick of late. It was something that started during the pandemic, and I’ll probably make about four or five more of these before I work it completely out of my system. But in that … it’s still fun. So let me introduce you…

Well, I guess this is our next step in the pandemic recovery. The Altamont Fair is accepting entries into its competitions for the 2021 fair season, which will run August 17-22, 2021.

Last Friday, I needed to burn off some energy. So I went to Rivers Casino in Schenectady for a little while. Now there’s a few things to remember when you go into any gambling establishment, whether it’s the horse track or the casino. Bet within your limits. Know when to stop. Know when to leave.…

I’ve used Cameo in the past, and it’s a great gift idea if you want to send someone a birthday greeting or something of that nature. I’ve used it twice – once when my son Kris underwent surgery (gave him positive messages from Shangela), and once when Kris was having a birthday (with birthday greetings…

So this happened. A little background. Yesterday, while perusing Twitter, I saw that tennis / human rights legend Martina Navratilova had retweeted a Twitter image from NBA veteran Rex Chapman. It was a magic trick in which a man was able to magically spread milk from one small cup to three larger cups. Now I…

A long time ago, I blogged about some dog agility competition videos – first I showed a dog raced through the obstacle course like there was a plate of Alpo at the end of the run, and then I showed a dog who was just taking his sweet time through the course like it was…

Sports mascots are a hit-and-miss option for sports fans. Some fans love their team mascots, others, not so much. I mean, you can’t go wrong with the San Diego Chicken, but when the New York Yankees had a mascot for a couple of seasons … the less said about that, the better. I mention this…
