First off, some cute cat memes that a friend sent me. I had my second COVID vaccine yesterday. So far, no significant side effects, although my arm is much sorer than with the first shot, but no flu-like symptoms. Messages about wearing masks, or not, are all over the place now and very contradictory depending […]
Now a couple of things I need to comment about. Things that have rankled for quite some time. First off, a note to reporters on NPR, especially those contributing to the morning news program Up First.

Help me welcome Slim Randles as today’s Wednesday’s Guest. The pandemic sure is taking it’s toll on folks, a fact that Janice and Annette can testify to. Sometimes it makes us say the oddest things, and it’s hard to recognize a joke when we can’t see a smile. Before turning the blog over to Slim,

Well, Friday sort of snuck up on me, and just as quickly went away. Not completely here in NE Texas, but in other parts of the country, and the world, it’s already Saturday. Still, I want to do Friday Reads and Friday Fun to kick off the weekend for the rest of us who still

Where I live it’s late Wednesday afternoon, or early evening depending on how you look at the clock, so it’s still officially Hump-Day and always a good day to have Slim Randles as my guest. I won’t bore you with the details of what kept me out of my office most of the day. Well,
