Hi everyone, Welcome back, and a happy Monday to you all. How was your weekend? I know, no one is happy that it's Monday, but there's only one thing we can do in a situation like this. That's right, say it with me: Help yourself to a nice medium DD, and let's clear out a little Monday Clutter. There, I feel better already! The good news is that Josh Beckett continues to pitch pretty well since his disastrous first start against the Detroit Tigers earlier this season. The bad news is that Chicago White Sox pitcher Gavin Floyd continues to... Read more →

Hi everyone, How are you? Welcome back. Come on in, come on in. Make yourself comfortable. Sorry it's a little chilly in here, but it should be warmer soon. BDH and Little Buddha just finished making some coffee, so help yourself to a nice medium DD, and let's clear out a little Sunday Clutter. It took a six-game winning streak to get there, but the Boston Red Sox are finally back to .500 after beating the Chicago White Sox 1-0 last night. Jon Lester threw seven strong inning for his first win in what seems like a year, and the... Read more →

Hi everyone, Welcome back. How are you? Anyone do anything crazy last night? What's the plan for today? I've got some errands to run, and then BDH and Little Buddha are going to help me clean Clutter Headquarters today. We're particularly focused on the kitchen, which has a nice layer of plaster dust covering it after a contractor recently repaired one of the walls. I thought my stove looked a little whiter than usual. However, first things first, so help yourself to a nice medium DD, and let's kick off the weekend with a little Saturday Clutter. Don't look now,... Read more →

Hi everyone, Welcome back. Happy Friday to you all. We made it through another week. Hell, at this point, we've almost made it through the first 1/3 of the year. This calls for some coffee. Help yourself to a nice medium DD, and let's wrap up this crazy week with a little Friday Clutter. If you didn't see it yesterday, the first "Clutter Spotlight" has now been posted. Who was the subject? There's only one way to find out. We'll be doing more of those going forward, so please send any suggestions you have about who we should feature next.... Read more →

As a kid, I devoured every book about the Kennedy family that I could get my hands on. There were a few about President John F. Kennedy, a few about Robert Kennedy, and a few about the entire Kennedy family. I don't remember how I got so into learning about JFK's assassination, but by 5th grade, I could basically give you a minute-by-minute recap of the day's events, and tell you all of the major conspiracy theories. I actually still have a copy of the Warren Commission report in one of my bookcases. I had a large black and white... Read more →

Hi everyone, Welcome back. It's great to see you, as always. How are you? How's your week going? Any big plans for the weekend yet? BDH and Little Buddha have the coffee ready to go, so help yourself to a nice medium DD, and let's clear out a little Thursday Clutter. The reign of the Boston Bruins has come to an end as the defending Stanley Cup champions were eliminated from the playoffs by the Washington Capitals last night, falling 2-1 in overtime. It's certainly disappointing, but cheers to the Bruins for a great run. This team is built for... Read more →

Hi everyone, Welcome back, how are you? Come on in. It looks like a lovely day outside. It may be my imagination, but it looks like the Clutter Tree's leaves have had a little growth spurt since we had that rain. BDH and Little Buddha just made a fresh pot of coffee (thanks, guys), so grab a cup (sorry, the Red Sox mug is mine), help yourself to a nice medium DD, and let's clear out a little Wednesday Clutter. The Boston Red Sox had a nice stress-free 11- 2 win over the Minnesota Twins last night. Everyone did their... Read more →

Hi everyone, Welcome back, how are you? Today looks much nicer than yesterday did, which is good, though the Clutter Tree looks refreshed after all of that rain. The Boston Red Sox made it hard to get to sleep last night, so BDH and Little Buddha made some extra strong coffee this morning. (How fantastic are they? I didn't even need to ask them to do that.) So, help yourself to a nice medium DD, and let's get this day going with a little Tuesday Clutter. I'm glad the Boston Red Sox were able to end their losing streak by... Read more →

Hi everyone, Welcome back, come on in. It's a dreary Monday as it continues to rain outside. I'm actually okay with the rain this morning, because the Clutter Tree really needs it. BDH and Little Buddha just made a fresh pot of coffee, so help yourself to a nice medium DD, and let's kick off the week with a little Monday Clutter. What's that you say? New anti-voter registration laws passed by Republican legislatures to fight the non-existent problem of widespread national voter fraud could end up hurting President Obama this fall? Imagine, what are the odds of that? It's... Read more →

Hi everyone, Welcome back to Clutter Headquarters. It's a dreary Sunday, which seems appropriate, given what a disaster Saturday was in Boston sports. On a brighter note, I had a great time walking my friend's dog yesterday, so the day wasn't a total loss. In any case, it's time to move forward, so help yourself to a nice medium DD, and let's clear out a little Sunday Clutter. We've already talked about the state of the Boston Red Sox, but least we have the Boston Bruins, though, right? Oh wait, they're on the brink of elimination in the first round... Read more →
