I made it through my surgery. Barely. From what I understand, while I was off in slumberland (thanks to a mixture of various anesthetics), my right ankle was surgically reassembled with pins and rods. It’s splinted up and wrapped in enough Ace bandages to insulate me against anything. But the big rule is – o…
Read MoreK-Chuck Radio: Keep me going
So I’m going under the knife today. By the time you read this, I will be swimming in a bath of anesthesia, while the doctor surgically repairs my ankle. So while I’m trying to get through the surgery … I’m going to need some music to keep me going. So let’s get started with ……

The second after I fell down … I knew something wasn’t right. i didn’t feel any pain … but my right foot felt funny. Not normal. And yet, I was still able to drive to my day job. But the longer the day went, the more worried i became that I had fallen on slippery…
Read MoreHow you can help to heal Australia
If you want to see what climate change and global warming is doing in our lifetime, look no further than to the wildfires that are destroying Australia right now. Make no mistake.

Read MoreFebruary 1st will be a very, very busy day for me …
This will be an interesting day, to say the least. It will actually combine two of my favorite things – my adulation for my favorite minor league basketball team, and my expertise in useless knowledge. And they combine on February 1st this year. And like Kurt Busch on Memorial Day Weekend, I’m going to attempt…

Yeah, I did it. By accident. In typing today’s headline for the blog post, I accidentally posted the headline as 2019. Whoops on me. But … it’s Saturday, no matter what year it is, and that means it’s time to recap the blogs that were written by those on my personal blogroll. So I hope…

Read MoreThe wallet split
I’ve had my wallet for at least six years. It holds my driver’s license, my medical cards, all my money, my credit cards, a ton of receipts … Yeah, it’s a Costanza wallet. And after about six years, my wallet was showing signs of fatigue. Some of the seams had split. And at one point,…
Read MoreSo much for the evolution of Harley Quinn
So … I actually looked forward to seeing the new DC Universe streaming animated series Harley Quinn. I realize that with a subscription service, you can air programs with more “adult” content to them – language, for example – that you can’t do on Saturday morning network TV. I’ve seen examples of this in the…
Read MoreChuck’s Best Blog Posts of 2019
It is that time once again … a time to recap all the adventures from 2019. The good … the bad … the strong … the tough … the ones that are essentially Chuck. Before I recap … thank you, my blog readers, for visiting my page every day. I don’t know if I’ve entertained…
