It’s been a tough week for me, Carl. I kept forgetting to turn on the podcast thing and missed a whole bunch of stuff. So, I forced the Farkas Family (Tabby and Joe) and Andrew to talk about toilet paper a second time. It’s not as good as the first time but you’ll get the […]

Don’t Fall In Love

Long-term relationships brought about by clumsiness. Love is for the klutzy. Intimacy is for the inept. Any nitwit can fall. All you need is gravity. (Love […]

1 Reason

No Funeral For A Dead Raccoon
