There are a couple of service dog-related things I wanted to write down. I have been meaning to for a while, but they keep getting lost. Sometimes, when I’m following someone, and we slow down, the person I’m following will start saying, “Come on puppy, come this way, come on!” Then they wonder why I …

I Don’t Read Books, I Devour Them!
Quick note: I’ve updated the section about Audible Canada. Between last Christmas and my birthday, Steve created a monster; a book-devouring monster. Here’s how. First, he bought me Aftershokz Bluez2S headphones. Those things, although not perfect, are pretty cool. I can walk around, still hear, and listen to stuff from my phone. This made me …
Updates On the Two Black Beasts
I have some time, so I figured I should write about the two black beasts I know so the post doesn’t grow into a monster. Tansy went to the vet for her annual checkup a month or so ago, and they said she looked great. They did comment that she does have a tiny bit …
It’s All Fun And Games Until Someone Draws In Their Eye
When I heard about this woman and her eyeball tattoo gone wrong, all I could think of was this really old post. I guess this woman is really into body modification, i.e. adding and subtracting things from her body just for fun. She’s even had her tongue surgically split. Yeesh! So she thought tattooing the …

I’ve Got A Trombone To Pick With You…
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jc_BFM_wJMU This story, although kind of sad, makes me laugh. It’s definitely odd. It seems this fellow who just moved to a new apartment discovered that someone in his midst has a hate on for trombones. Sam and a lady friend had been living in Dixon. But this summer she got a job offer in …
Please Don’t Nuke Us, North Korea
I wanted to post this song when all the fire and fury stuff started, but then life got away from me. With North Korea doing more missile tests, Now is as good a time as any. Get your lyrics right here. I’m not dragging them over here, because they actually have links explaining context of …
Hear The Sound, Blind Guys!
I’m not sure if you heard, since nobody seems to be talking about it, but there’s an eclipse tomorrow. Everybody’s all excited about it, except my grandma who hopes it will be too cloudy for people to stare at the sun and do dumb things. I get that the moon will block out the sun, …
Ass Bucket Challenge
Here comes another one out of the rusty and dusty pile of old blog ideas that I’ve been keeping around for way too long, but part of this is kind of timeless. Back in 2014, when everyone was throwing buckets of icy water on their heads to raise money for ALS research for the Ice …
I’m Afraid They Maytag Her As A Bad Parent
Whenever I think about this poor, poor kid, after I can let out my breath, all I can think of are two things. The washing machines in the apartment building are so deep that in order for me to reach the bottom, I have to almost climb in to get everything, so Steve helps me …

The Pain In My Brain Is Caused Mainly By The Cane
Meet another group of police officers who need to learn the difference between a white cane and a weapon. This happened last year in Winnipeg, but I finally got around to writing it down. It seems that Steven Stairs was walking from a bar to a payphone, and he had the misfortune of being in …
