Damn you, E…

Damn you, E.
I’m guessing that this is your revenge for pointing you to the LOLDogs and the LOLModels.

Life imitates bad joke

There is an old joke that almost always makes me laugh when I remember it:
Jerry suffered from terrible headaches all of his adult life. No docotr seemed to be able to help him He finally went to a new specialist in town. After a thorough examination, the specialist turned to him and said “Jerry [...]

$675.60

Another one of those stupid blogging memes making the rounds. This one purports to put some kind of price on your “crimes,” but the fines are so wildly unbalanced that it is more of a reflection of the person that wrote the quiz than the people taking it.
Here’s a list of the fines:

Mixed Feelings

I have mixed feelings upon discovering the events that unfolded over at Susan’s blog during the last two days.
Anger.
Disgust.
Disappointment.
Discouragement.

Okay, sure… Susan is over her admittedly over-reaction; but that’s not the point. She’s a new blogger, perhaps a bit excited over the new Comments feature, happily posting away with the little birds of praise twittering [...]

Welcome to The Edge of Vanilla

Yes, I know that I have a Blogger account of the same name.
I opened this primarily to have access to the comments and discussions on the various WordPress blogs out there. But I may eventually decide to mirror my main blog The Edge of Vanilla  here, or possibly move the entire blog here if I [...]

Welcome to The Edge of Vanilla

For those of you reading my original blog “The Tao of Me“, I’ve moved to this journal (taking some of my favorites from the old one) for two reasons.
One is that the BloggerBeta was giving me some technical problems that made things inconvenient. I’m all about simplifying my life, and instead of hacking everything, it [...]

Candace has an amusingly titled post, sparked to some degree by what I call the “helpful suggestions” sent in by some [...]

Sometimes being a grown-up really sips through a straw

Years ago, before I had kids, I saw some cartoon in which the parents - upon discovering that their various children had sleepovers or were out for the evening - said “Okay, great, let’s do something we don’t get to do when they’re home!” In the last panel it shows them going to be early [...]

Yes, we have no bananas today

Unbelievably, I don’t have some sex-related observation to make today. In fact, I’m willing to wager that after my piercing heals that I’ll be a bit less obsessive about my wang and will actually be able to hold conversations with regular, normal people.
For those of you - those very, very, very few of you - [...]

*woot* - It works! - *woot*

Okay, here’s the sitch: The daughter is at a sleepover, so my wife and I get the house to ourselves. Cool, right? She tells me this at 6:15 pm, so I’m thinking in an hour we’ll be on our way out to dinner and home early for some well-earned playtime. Haven’t been in the mood [...]
