Not gonna lie, wasn’t my favorite grocery store. A little too expensive, a little out of the way. I didn’t shop there enough to say I wasn’t part of the problem. But that insane sausage collection has graced my grill at cookouts for nearly twenty years. And as a proud grillmaster, when someone brought oddball […]

So first, I would notice bluejays hop around my yard after the grass got mowed. So I started creating a little bath and other features for them to frequent their visits. This expanded to more features inviting finches, sparrows, junkos, flickers, woodpeckers, starlings, and then a hawk. The hawk was neat at first then the […]

I JUST Don’t UNDERSTAND. I never trust anyone sitting on a porch and just scrolling on their phone after having already been doing the same thing inside their house. Is this the break from “working from home?” I’d say the same about someone standing outside a building and smoking a cigarette and looking at their […]

“Portland city councilors voted unanimously Wednesday night to temporarily exempt a proposed Alaska Airlines maintenance hangar at Portland International Airport from property taxes.”… Or so the Oregonian tells us.  Which is to say that a multi billion dollar corporation has again trounced on the backs of we lessers to acquire favoritism that we could never […]

I wish some coworkers would just go away, in whatever way that could be. You got the selfish, non team player caring only about their own quota who will steal your work to make themselves better. Don’t confuse this with being an overachiever. You got the self centered person who’s time and work is more […]

On a show, there’s a certain scene where a person is being portrayed playing a guitar for tips with a cup hanging from their guitar and walking through a crowded train. All the passengers are shunning, cringing, eye rolling, and mocking. This portrayal was perplexing and a little disgusting. Is this what society thinks of […]

Here’s what most of you don’t want to hear. The Obama Presidency was a failed presidency. Banks got bailed out and millions lost their homes. Two foreign wars raged on sending young men home, injured, dead, or damaged. An opium epidemic ran unnoticed and unchecked through the middle of the country. We got a dirty […]

One way or another, I was still one of the best students you ever had and you were one of my worst teachers. I worked hard and became really good because I put the effort in. I over looked the fact that you were an asshole so I could get what I wanted. I made […]

Gotta say it was probably the most boring and least shocking thing I’ve seen on the internet this week Was surprised by Alicia Keys (which I enjoyed) and Deepak Chopra (which I also enjoyed). There was an enjoyable video of a cat lounging on a computer. The rest was so heavily edited and blacked out […]

With all the suspicion and mystery around Sen. Wyden’s letter to the CIA, there isn’t much to say. The letter is classified. For all the implications and criticisms of that fact, it is the reality. For now, and maybe for a long time, the public won’t know what it contains. It could be about Bigfoot. […]

There’s a moment I still keep with me. It’s fragile and delicate. It’s close to twenty years old now and still doesn’t drive, but that’s perfectly fine with me. I don’t know how much of the moment is a memory or how much has been filled in and switched out over the years. For example, […]

I don’t know who you are, or whether you’re a man or a woman. I may never see you. I may never hug you or cry with you or get drunk with you. But I love you. I hope you escape this place. I hope that the world turns and that things get better, and […]
