Let’s go over a few things. What do you put in dog cages? Dogs. That’s why they’re called “dog cages.” I suppose you could put a cat in a dog cage if you wanted to. Maybe use a dog cage for some emergency storage. A Houston mother, however, chose to put something else in her…

The new laptop in my life.
I’m honestly surprised my previous laptop lasted as long as it did. But here’s the backstory. In 2016, I joined several of my trivia friends to participate in the World Tavern Trivia championships in Atlantic City. We finished in third place – very respectable – and each of us pocketed a nice chunk of cash.…

I do NOT believe in cryptocurrency. As far as I’m concerned, if cryptocurrencies are not backed by the United States government – i.e., I could go to the local bank and convert Bitcoin into dollars and verse vica – then it’s no more financially solvent than the paper money in a Monopoly game. That being…
Read More“Hey, you can’t use a presidential pardon! Only I can use the presidential pardon!!”
Let’s get a few things straight right off the bat. Hunter Biden was guilty of tax evasion and weapons charges. Those facts do not change. These are federal crimes. And last night, President Joe Biden – Hunter’s father – issued a presidential pardon on Hunter’s behalf. And Republicans are losing their minds over it. All…
Read More“And what do YOU want for Christmas, little boy?”
I’m less than a week away from my 2024 CPKC Holiday Train chase. I’ve narrowed down my camera gear to the essentials – one digital (my Nikon Df) and three film (my Nikon F2S “Nikon Athena,” my medium-format Rolleiflex Automat MX, and my Krasnogorsk FT-2 super-ultra-wide “Raskolnikov”). I’ve checked out locations for shooting spots and…
Read MoreThat’s what I get for trusting the Rollei SL26 :(
Okay. I’ve already short-tested my new-to-me Rollei SL26 film camera – it’s an advanced camera that uses 126 “Instamatic” film. You know, the film that hasn’t been manufactured in over 25 years. So I wanted to try something with this film and with this camera. And for testing purposes, I’m going back to the Sacandaga…
Read MoreEdward Everett Hale might have some thoughts on this.
How would you like to escape the United States for up to four years? There’s actually an option. It will only cost you $200,000. According to this news article, a cruise line is offering travelers a year-long – or four-year-long, if you know what I mean – trip away from the United States. You would…
Read MoreI left the X cesspool today.
My Twitter account goes back to January 2011. And it ends today. It ends because of many things. I ended it after the results of last night’s election. I ended it because, in the past two years that Elon Musk has operated Twitter, he’s turned it into a cesspool. What was once a free outlet…
Read MoreHey, who wants to see a live castration on camera?
You gotta hand it to the Trump MAGA trolls. They go on social media and blather on about how wonderful their orange goblin leader will be for the country, and they’re not above – or below – pontificating with bold predictions. Now of all the usual “Trump MAGA trolls” out there that I could feature…

Let’s get one thing straight. Medhi Hasan is an incredibly brilliant and well-thought commentator. You may not agree with his arguments all the time, but you can agree that he has thoroughly researched every point of his argument and can defend every single one of his statements. Let’s get one more thing straight. Ryan Girdusky…
