For those of you eagerly following the saga of the sitting room connected to our bedroom that I’m converting into a closet/dressing room for my wife for our 25th anniversary, I installed the door today and the closet inside is done (not counting one more light I’m going to put on a wall).

A delightful barrel aged imperial stout, or where the country is headed?

I don't know who's proofreading ads for Homes dot com, but for 4.8 million dollars I think the house probably has at least one bathroom.

The box containing all the boards and hardware weighs 115 pounds. “Not actual size” in the assembly instructions made me chuckle.

Share yer mug... The one I'm using at the moment happens to have an image from the book cover of my 2020 novel The Great American Deception. The narrator of the book (and its sequel), a robot coffee machine named Arjay, is holding a mug of the most delicious coffee in the universe.

I’ve picked a couple of novels to take on vacation to Mexico: Ubik by Philip K. Dick and The Third Policeman by Flann O’Brien. If I’m confused while reading, it might not necessarily be because of the tequila. #books #novels

I dislike AI summaries of reviews on Amazon, but I'm going to share the AI summary of the reviews of my novel The Great American Deception because it's the only good thing AI has ever "written" (aside from the novel itself, written by a sentient coffee machine robot). www.amazon.com/Great-Americ...

If your grilling utensils don’t have little kickstands, what are you even doing with your life?

We (three of us, anyway) will have a beer flight or two, probably whatever my niece and her fiancé choose from what I have in the fridge downstairs. What 4 would you pick?
