Working for a Living is Unnatural Torture

Is there really any doubt?
Salaried employment interferes with our natural sleep cycles - where’s my goddamned afternoon nap?  It forces us to spend our day among strangers, which naturally induces anxiety among humans.  It forces us to be answerable to a near-stranger, who is quite likely to be stupider, less qualified and, now that I’m […]

For those who liked my Crosswords

I finally have a new page set up.  I don’t have a new puzzle created for it yet, but I should have one in a day or so.

Closing Up Shop

Time to mothball this blog.  I will be concentrating on other things for the foreseeable future.  Thanks to all who read and supported this site.

Neglect and the Next Big Thing

I know that I have been shamefully neglecting this site.  That’s because I’m a bad, bad man.
Anyway, I recently came across Surface, which Microsoft is touting as the Next Big Thing.Â
I’m not convinced.  I see applications in banking, sure, and maybe a few other areas where they already use touch screens (would you like fries […]

I finally broke down and got some reading glasses today.  To be accurate, my wife bought them for me.  I guess she just got tired of my bitching about not being able to read stuff.  It’s amazing what that woman can find for $2.
New survey up.  Just one question, so it shouldn’t tax your patience […]

Crossword fixed, but not new.  I’ll get a new one up tonight or tomorrow AM.
Wikipage gone.  No tears.  I don’t think anybody even looked at it.  So much for that idea.

If You Build It, They Won’t Come

You may have noticed (how could you not) that this site is turning into something of a dog’s breakfast.  Really, I’ve thrown everything in here except the kitchen sink (oops).
I have been trying out features for two basic reasons.  First, to find out how they work, or even if they work.  Second, to find out […]

Added Features

I’ve brought all of my old posts from blogger and put them all on a page called (brightly) Old Blogger Posts.
I’ve created a feed in the right-hand column which doesn’t seem to be working very well or, at least, not updating very frequently.  It’s mostly blogs I like to read - soon I’ll add some […]

Stuff

The Crossword page is now operational.  If you don’t want to solve it online, there is a printable version you can download in a .pdf file.  I suspect a solution will be redundant, but I have created a space for one anyway.  Sorry if today’s clues are a bit lame - I’ll try to do […]

New Features

I’ve added a page of comic strips, for those of you who move your lips when you read.
I’ve also opened up comments at the end of each post, which requires [shudder] word verification, or you can post in our forum (preferred).
