The Blog Song

Do you think he wants us to check his blog? Proof positive that bloggers, no matter what their skin tone, cannot dance worth beans.

Octopus love
This touching depiction of cephalopod love in the fatal style of Romeo and Juliet was painted by Brandi Milner and passed along by Mistress Cowfish, at whose lovely tiki bar I, myself, spent a happy New Year’s Eve.

Sensible Shopper Strikes Again!

Now, I have my good points. Among these is my ability to shop. I’m not just a tireless shopper; I’m not just a savvy shopper; I think it fair to say that I am, in fact and in actuality, an expert shopper. If I can’t get it for you at 50% off or in exchange for something you have lying around the garage, it does not exist.
