Valentine’s Day. Bah! Humbug!
Posted in Holidays, Humor, tagged satire, stoning, The Onion, Valentine's Day on February 14, 2021| 1 Comment »
If you’re like me, the annual sight of blissfully happy couples on Valentine’s Day makes you ill. Not because of their cloying sweetness and dopey “eyes only for you” looks (though that’s part of it), but because you never get to join in. If your romantic life has stunk as badly as mine, you’ve often felt like that little kid looking in from outside the fence and wishing he could play, too, but never gets the chance.
Admit it: every Valentine’s Day is an annoying reminder of that. Don’t deny it, revel in it — wallow in the mire you yourself have created! Give in to the dark side…
And, while you’re at it, enjoy this Valentine’s Day report from The Onion.
You’re welcome.
Merry Christmas!

Happy Thanksgiving!

I hope everyone has a fine day today. And just to show that Turkey Day is a holiday for everyone, even the big cats of Big Cat Rescue get their helping of bird:
Somehow, I don’t think there will be many leftovers tomorrow. 🙂

A Laphroaig Christmas
Posted in Food, Holidays, Humor, tagged Laphroaig, scotch, whiskey on December 14, 2014| Leave a Comment »
The good people at Laphroaig, one of many great single-malt scotches from the Isle of Islay, took some of the comments they received and set them to Christmas carols.
Brilliant. 🙂
Happy Thanksgiving!
