And I hate even more when I get off schedule. But if you promise not to sue me, I’ll post this I Hate Monday a day late. And anyway, I’m sure it’s still Monday somewhere. Today, I would like to know what’s the deal with drivers who feel compelled to apply their brakes going down hills, even slight inclines. Let’s …

Music soothes the soul
That’s why some pleasant musical interlude is always posted here on Thursdays. Or as we sometimes say, V is for Video. V signifying the number 5, Thursday being the 5th day of the week, not to mention the fact that music is made with hands and there are five fingers on each hand, guitars have five strings when one breaks, …
Par 3 Hiatus
Smack dab in the middle of Masters Week (circle R) in Augusta, let’s take a slightly biased look at the Top Ten Masters moments of all time. When you reach #1, you’ll figure out that this was compiled by Canadian ESPN. And it’s curious that there were evidently no Top Ten moments prior to the mid-1980s. Even so it’s still …

I Hate Monday
…and while I’m at it, I hate denial. What specific kind, you ask? Well, everyone knows distracted driving – like texting while motoring down the highway – is dangerous, yes, downright foolhardy.

Church Chat
This session of the Church of the Infinite Chasm is hereby called to order. As an addendum to last week’s diatri… I mean sermon, a few additional thoughts. To refresh your memory, or inform the FTAs (Failure To Attends), I rhetorically wondered why people can readily accept a “bad guy” in books, movies, TV shows, et cetera (whether fiction or …
Why is it a distraction???
APRIL IS DISTRACTED DRIVING AWARENESS MONTH Why is talking on a cell phone distracting, but talking to in-car passengers or listening to music while driving isn’t? Odd, isn’t it? It is a statistical fact that drivers talking on cell phones make more driving errors than drivers talking to passengers. Among the most common cell phone errors: drivers drifting out of …
Do not adjust your screen
You wouldn’t want to do that, because what we have here is (not) a failure to communicate. Instead, this issue contains a ton — well, to get technical it’s only about eighteen hundred pounds — of useful information that will encourage you to be a healthier person and live weller longer. Haven’t you always wanted to live weller? Of course …
