I’m watching CMT and I see a Crossroads episode with Bruce Hornsby and Ricky Skaggs. I’ve never been much of a Ricky Skaggs fan, but I loved Bruce Hornsby and The Range back in the day. Anyhoo, Bruce and Ricky do this bluegrass cover of That’s Just the Way It Is, and I have to admit it was pretty good. ...

Holly wrote in the comments section of my post about missing The Kid: And that is a beautiful girl-child there, I hope your shotgun is in workin‘ order. She’s gonna be a heartbreaker for sure. *grin* I always knew she was an uncommonly perceptive woman. Let it be known to any single women out there – I’m available, and obviously ...

My favorite professional ghoul has his very own blog, and didn’t even tell me. If you’re a fan of drunken Irishmen and motorcycles, he’s got you covered on both counts. And in an unsolicited Public Service Announcement… If you ride – heck, even if you don’t – seriously consider signing an organ donor card AND letting your family know of ...

Waaaa….Tam’s getting older. Let’s see, she’s got looks, brains, an extensive library, her very own arsenal, and the admiration of a gazillion fans on the web. The only thing that keeps her from getting more marriage proposals is the fact that she has yet to mention her liquor store, bass boat and hunting lease. But hey, I’m willing to compromise. ...

If any of you aspire to win the lottery, give me a shout. I know a sweet 80 year old lady who could pick the winning numbers for you right now. Her luck is that good. How else to explain how a woman in the early stages of dementia could hop in her car, drive roughly 280 miles towards no ...

" Did someone write STOOPID across my forehead when I was sleeping?" "It wasn't me, I swear. So, are you coming?" "No Paul, I'm referring to your invitation. You've got to think I'm a Kentucky Fried Idiot to show up for another dinner at your house. Without a gun." "Awwww, man! Don't be like that. It wasn't that bad." "For ...

Checked out Speaker Tweaker over at his blog, and he has a nice peaen to John Moses Browning, one of my favorite Murkins. Also, El Capitan has a nice post over at Baboon Pirates on his fevered pursuit of the Oscar Meyer Weinermobile through the neighborhood. Somehow, I keep getting the mental image of this guy shouting, “Franks and beans! ...

You were visitor Number 20,000! Columbus, the cement bicycles haven’t been too popular and since Land O Lakes, FL and Salt Lake City, UT haven’t claimed theirs, you can have ’em both. Please come and get them soon, because the garage is started to look cluttered. Or, you can choose the topic of a blog post. Hey, it works for ...

Thanks for all your comments, folks. I still haven’t convinced The Publisher that the blog is a good thing, but at least he’s not totally opposed to the idea, either. I just got a few copies from the second printing of The Book, and it looks like we’ve managed to fix the few little continuity errors from the first edition ...

Who among you would purchase a compilation book of the posts from a favorite blog? I’m one of many who thinks LawDog should put all his stuff in a book. I for one would buy it, even though I’ve read it all before. The same goes for Crystal. Rocky Mountain Medic has some good stories. All of them have plenty ...

“He’s such a narcissist that he wears ribbed condoms…inside out.” Chuckle…

I’m a little afraid to answer. So I just fix my Patently Insincere Smile on my face and say something noncommittal. “Why don’t you tell me what you think it is.” He’s thin and dirty, with that peculiar musty yet acrid odor of a crack user. He has burn marks on his fingers and the web of his thumb. A ...

Surfing a few blogs today, and I found this one. She’s acerbic, a little profane and funnier than a bottle of nitrous oxide. Not that she needs the link, but I’m adding Boobs, Injuries and Dr. Pepper to the blogroll. Maybe if I throw in enough shameless flattery, she’ll make it reciprocal. Go by and give her a read, and ...

… I've been thinking about going down and having my colon cleansed thoroughly. Lest you guys think I only dish it out when it comes to horseplay, I'll tell you of the time I unwillingly had my colon cleansed…thoroughly. When I was growing up in north Louisiana, I had a good friend named Paul. Every day after school, we'd fill ...
