We’ve had pleasant days here in Texas recently, and yesterday I took advantage of the warm weather to undecorate from Christmas and get things packed back in the garage. Normally I wait until after January 6, the day the three wise men visited baby Jesus, but it’s going to get wet and colder here. I […]

Sharing more fun from Slim Randles today, hoping we can laugh our way into 2021. If you’re partying tonight, be smart and be safe. With ICUs bursting at the seams, now is not the time to cast caution aside. “Boys,” said our tall cowboy, Steve, “I’ve got a real problem coming up and I’m not
Okay, two “I-knows” coming at you. First, I know I said I’d be gone for a couple of weeks, but since Slim Randles is here to entertain readers, it’s almost like I’m not here. Right? Second, I know it’s after Christmas Day, so this story’s a little dated, but it’s priceless. Reminds me of when

Before moving on, I do want to pause a moment to acknowledge all the Veterans across the country. Thank you for your service! In the past, I’ve blogged about all the members of my family who have been in the military and you can read that post HERE if you’d care to. I wrote it

As I write this, we don’t know for sure who has won the elections across the country. Lots of mail-in ballots are still to be counted. I’m still staying away from news for the most part, and I thought a little humor from Slim Randles might be in order. The following is an older post
