So you’re still sloughing through this political malaise. You’re feeling down and low, you’re feeling blue. And you need a pep talk to make you feel better. Trust me. We just got a pep talk. From our neighbors to the North. And it’s not the first time they’ve picked us up when we’ve been on…

The rarest Three Stooges films ever…
I grew up with the Three Stooges. As a kid, I watched Three Stooges movies at 7:00 a.m. on WTEN as part of a “Popeye and the Three Stooges” show, which would lead into Commander Ralph Vartigian and the Good Ship News. In later years, I would watch Three Stooges marathons on WSBK, when the…
Read MoreChuck drops running snarkiness on Donald Trump and Hillary Clinton’s first debate…
My original plan was to watch the Presidential debate with an open mind, to hear the candidates talk about the issues. Heck, when I saw Hillary Clinton and Donald Trump take the stage and shake hands prior to the debate, I thought things would remain civil and calm between the two. Yeah, right. That might…

My “Describe yourself in three fictional characters” are…
There is a new Facebook feature floating around, in which Facebook members post photos of three fictional characters to describe themselves. Aside from the fact that most of my female Facebook friends who participated in this program chose Daria as one of their fictional characters … wow, I never realized Daria was so popular… I…

I don’t normally watch Dancing With The Stars, despite the successful appearance of several members of the Pittsburgh Steelers on the show. In fact, I had a better time watching Antonio Brown, DeAngelo Williams and Ryan Shazier completely demolish the Washington Redskins 38-16 last night. That being said, I woke up this morning and saw…

Where do goats and cathedrals go?

So I’m busy on August 21, 2017…
I have a serious love-hate relationship with the social media site reddit. I’ve met great people on the site, and I’ve met people for whom the words “restraining order” fit them perfectly. But this time, while participating in a special themed reddit gift exchange, I received a gift that, for all intents and purposes, blocked…

I do not appreciate attempts by telemarketers, scammers or fraudsters to separate me from my money. I don’t. Not in the least. And that includes the person calling from “Internal Revenue Service” with their satellite office in Bangalore, telling me I’m being sued for back taxes. He got dumbfounded when I simply repeated all his…

The ownership of golden pins
Over the weekend, I began work on a new Dream Window project. No, I’m not going to reveal its concept to you right now. These projects take time. Trust me on this. As part of the project, I placed an eBay order for an item that contained various stickpins associated with the project’s concept. Yesterday,…

The Cathedral of St. Philco earned a silk of…
Here it is. This was once an old Philco radio cabinet, a worn-out husk that I bought on eBay for a few dollars. I added colored glass, dollhouse furniture and velvet interior, and created something spiritual and special. I didn’t plan on building this artwork for anything other than a proof of concept, a way…
