It's like Grandma Pearl always used to say, "I'd rather have a Bible in front of me than give a gator a frontal lobotomy." Or maybe she said crocodile - it was a long, long time ago.

When I was a kid I played a lot of Stratego. I think it explains why I've had so much sly power and influence in the world as an adult.

Like you, I love elephants. They are amazing! It's not right that they have been seized by the G.O. Partypoopers as the symbol of their criminal organization. Free the elephant! The GOP can have a rabid skunk. Or better yet, they can have the mosquito. Bite me, GOP!

The directions just say, "cook that mutha until the cows come home." I wish it indicated what temperature I should use because I'm still a rookie when it comes to cooking with magnets.

When you have something that's creepy and scares people, try putting a cute hat on it! Note: a cute hairstyle doesn't do the trick.

My new goal is to not lose sight of the big picture while at the same time I will pay incredible attention to detail. Reach for the stars or wind up in bars! Or possibly both.

I wish I was going to a wedding today. I love a good wedding!

I've tried to live a life free from regret. But now that I'm old I keep recalling certain "opportunities" I bungled. Mostly they are romantic in nature or have to do with buying and selling automobiles. Some involve tree planting. A couple are things that I said or didn't say.

It was a weird summer. I kept finding fish on my lawn.

Ms. Lempicka, like almost all mandolin players, is pretty impressive, artwise stylistically.

My insurance company wouldn't renew my homeowner's policy until I had the trees pruned. Cheapest bid came from "Old Broad Tree Service." She did a decent job - for two hours. And she kept taking nips from a hip flask. Said she would be back today. I'll believe it when I see it.

If your child chooses "textile artist" as their ambition on school career day, Ms. Jennings has proven that it really is possible.

I see that a statue vaguely honoring Tina Turner resides in her hometown, proving once again that art is great, more or less.

Be careful if you go catfish noodlin' where Mr. Tamasauskas has been stocking the pond. Maybe just try to steer clear of water hazards in general.

"The Dream Team" was my favorite undercover cop show when I was a kid. I had a huge crush on Lorna. I loved the way Ace always greeted her with, "Hey Lorna, whacha doin'?" And then she'd pretend like she was going to smack the heck out of him with her purse!

All right - it's October and that means the new NBA season is about to start! I know that for many of you this is not a point of interest but for us NBA guys, this is a really big deal! And it only lasts until next June so we need to appreciate each and every day.

I've noticed that the internet is full of advice. Some of it seems good, like, "Never move into Liberace's old house." I certainly get that. But I've also been seeing a lot of, "Never bring a knife to an ice-pick fight" and I don't really see the disadvantage there.

Some guys like to get all fancy and make "art" out of books. I also like to work with books but I'm a lot more practical.

The greatest military mind we have to offer spent millions of dollars by requiring all the top brass from around the world to attend a meeting so that he could tell them in person that he doesn't like chicks, whiners and fatties. This is our government in traction. Fatties dismissed!

Every day I slap on my radio-headphones at 7:00 a.m. in order to catch the NPR news. I also like to grab the morning's copy of the Ukiah Times-Picayune off the front porch, all in hope that today will be the day we get the good news. Via semi-natural causes, of course.

I've always believed that a good illustration is one of the best ways to learn about the future!

That was the best medley of "Onward Christian Soldiers" and that Bee Gees hit, "You Should be Dancing" that I've ever heard. And I've been around quite a bit.
Mildred Piercing
Hmmm... so it's right in the name? Anti-fa. Does that mean the "fa" stands for "fat ass?" I guess that would keep it regime-specific. He's always right!

Meet Beak Boy, a 28-year-old California condor who lives in Big Sur. His turn-ons include roadkill that hasn't been there all that long and doing his part to save the species, one sunny day hook-up at a time. And you thought your life was good!

It's not like I need a place where everybody knows my name. I'm just trying to find a spot where I feel comfortable.
