iPod, therefore, I am
My ear buds were dying. I was midway through my morning commute when the left speaker cut out. I jiggled the wire and it came back for a few minutes, but by the time I got to work I was down to one channel again. I’d have to pick up a new pair on my… Continue reading iPod, therefore, I am
A Dignified Death For Man And Man’s Best Friend
Our dog Barnabus was dying. My wife and I both knew it, though we didn’t want to say it aloud. We’d been involved with animal rescue for many years, and we knew what the final stages of a pet’s life looked like: the loss of appetite, the incontinence, the restless wandering. No matter how Barney… Continue reading A Dignified Death For Man And Man’s Best Friend
My Wife’s Stroke or Why This Blog Sucks
Why does this blog suck so badly? Well, it’s not updated often enough, for starters. Why? Because I’ve been busy. Don’t believe me, read on. It’s been a crazy year. Then Google me, or look for my ebooks on Smashwords or Amazon — I’ve got a couple of new ebooks coming out, and more planned.… Continue reading My Wife’s Stroke or Why This Blog Sucks

The second post is from… Continue reading Commuter Blue, Commuter Pink
Passive Aggressive Christmas Fantasy, Circa 1996
[This was my 1996 Christmas column 14 years ago. Not sure what my problem was, but I was clearly f’d up. Maybe I have “holiday issues.” Strange year, 1996, like so many before and since.] Dear Rob, Santa has received the letters you’ve sent to him over the past several years. Every year you’re grouchy,… Continue reading Passive Aggressive Christmas Fantasy, Circa 1996
Advertainment: Product Placement Makes Crap Crappier
[I‘m working on a new column about product placement on “Days of Our Lives“, where plugs for Cheerios, Chex Mix, and Midol have been written into recent scripts, when I realized I wrote about something similar four years ago. Look below!] Good news: Television commercials are nearly extinct. The rise of TiVo, DVRs, broadband video… Continue reading Advertainment: Product Placement Makes Crap Crappier
Why County Clerks Suck
[Here’s another classic rant from 1998. I’m pretty sure county clerks are still selling your name and phone number to telemarketers. And they still suck. Interesting, back in ’98 I was bitching about telemarketers disrupting my Saturday morning tea-and-writing sessions. Now weekends are packed with kids, chores, kids, errands, kids, home improvements, and kids. But… Continue reading Why County Clerks Suck
