Yesterday, I wrote an amusing little vignette about an email I had received. I am, of course, using the word “amusing” very loosely. I guess you could say the same thing about “vignette.” Really, most of that last sentence was a large pile of crap. In this email I referred to, the Republican National Committee […]
One of the joys of hosting a blog on WordPress is that you are privy to some of the search terms that have led people to you. It can be very insightful. For instance, I had no idea that this blog was a hotbed for information on irrational women, but thanks to WordPress, I now […]
Dear Barack Obama and/or any other public official this might pertain to, Happy 2014! I’m sure you are ready for 2013 to be over. With the launch of Healthcare.gov and the government shutdown, the number of Americans who disapprove of you has jumped up 10%. That’s not good for you at all. If I found […]
DEAR NATHAN: My husband of eight years will not resolve his foot odor problem. We live in a small apartment, and it’s humiliating when we have company and half the apartment smells like stinky feet. He refuses to wear socks, and his solution in winter is to open all the windows and turn on the […]
As people comment on my posts, I do my best to respond. It is the least that I can do. Well, actually the least would be to completely ignore you, but the SECOND least I can do is trying to respond. Sometimes, though, a few fall through the cracks. They end up in my spam […]

My wife and I just had a fight. Normally, this would be the part where I try to convince myself it was her fault. On her end, she is no doubt doing the same. This time, though, neither one of us is to blame. This time, it’s all Snoop Dogg’s fault. Like every married fight, […]
Dear CNN, Fox, NBC, Google, Yahoo, ESPN, and everyone on Facebook or Twitter, As you might have heard, the Olympics began this weekend in London. Today was the first day of events and I was very eager to watch Michael Phelps swim in his first race. As you have reminded me every day leading up […]
As I do occasionally, I was perusing a list of Google searches that have led to my blog. I skimmed through, finding the usual “Unicorns” and “Obama Shower Curtain” and came upon a new one I had never encountered. “What to say when you don’t know what to say to a guy.” This struck me […]
Nothing surprises me more than a voicemail. No one contacts me via telephone, so normally I am excited to answer. Somehow, though, an occasional call slips by me, only arriving as a voicemail. This was the situation I found myself in this evening as I looked at my phone. There, somehow going unnoticed throughout the […]
