Hi everyone, Welcome back! How are you? BDH and Little Buddha were just giving me the latest weather forecast. It called for rain at one point a few days ago, but now I guess we're just looking at mostly cloudy with maybe some precipitation tonight. I'll take it. The guys also said that the coffee is ready, so grab yourself a nice medium DD, and let's clear out some Tuesday Clutter. Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell (R-KY) doesn't understand why Jon Stewart is "bent out of shape" over the funding of the September 11 Victim Compensation Fund. McConnell basically said...

Hi everyone, Welcome back! Come on in, have a seat. Sorry we're late. I've tried several times over the last few weeks to get the Clutter Car detailed, but the local place doesn't take appointments, and every time I went, they told me it would either be a three-hour wait, or they couldn't take me that day. I was determined to finally get it done, so I showed up about 30 minutes before they opened this morning. Success! I treated myself to a haircut after that, and BDH and Little Buddha think I and the car both look good, which... Read more →

Hi everyone, Welcome back! Come on in, have a seat. How are you? Wait, a quick programming note before we go any further: There's a chance we may be late getting here on Monday, and a smaller chance we may not be back until Tuesday. Okay, where were we? Right, how are you? BDH and Little Buddha were just looking at today's weather forecast. It rained a bit overnight, which is always good for the garden. Now it looks like it could be one of those days where there's a chance of more rain all day but it never seems... Read more →

We were just roaming around on the Internet, looking for any sign of a new story about the upcoming season of Doctor Who. Unfortunately, all's quiet at the moment, apart from a couple of early publicity shots. Our travels eventually lead us to an article about Lewis Capaldi, the 22 year-old Scottish singer-songwriter, who is some relation to the 12th Doctor himself, Peter Capaldi. (It sounds like they're third cousins twice removed, or something like that.) A few more clicks later, and we landed on this video for Lewis Capaldi's song, "Someone You Loved," which features his famous relative. Capaldi... Read more →

Hi everyone, Welcome back, and a happy Friday to you all! We've got a busy day planned here today. There are a couple of errands to be done this morning, and then there's the fun that is waiting for a repair appointment that has a four-hour window this afternoon. Thankfully, BDH and Little Buddha found a new book to read, so they can focus on that while we wait. Good times. Anyway, let's check out today's headlines. The guys just brought in a fresh pot of coffee, so grab yourself a nice medium DD, because it's time to clear out... Read more →

Hi everyone, Welcome back! Come on in, have a seat. BDH and Little Buddha were just consoling me about the Stanley Cup Final. As they point out, I should be able to get back to a more consistent sleep schedule now that hockey is over. Those two always do a tremendous job of keeping things in perspective. They also make great coffee. Speaking of which, there's a fresh pot on the table, so grab yourself a nice medium DD, and let's clear out some Thursday Clutter. Donald Trump admitted in a televised interview with George Stephanopoulos that he wouldn't feel... Read more →

Hi everyone, Welcome back! Come on in, have a seat. I was just talking to BDH and Little Buddha about last night's Red Sox game. The game itself was atrocious (more on that later), but it was great to catch up with a friend who I haven't seen in about 20 years. Of course I was up past my bedtime again, and Game 7 of the Stanley Cup Finals is tonight, so the guys are trying to figure out the best time for a nap this afternoon. They're terrific schedulers, you know. For now, we'll focus on powering through the... Read more →

Hi everyone, Welcome back! Come on in, have a seat. How are you? I got to sleep at a decent hour since there was no Stanley Cup Final game last night, and that was helpful. Of course, it was a little challenging to get up this morning with the rain falling outside. Of course, the plants are loving it, and if it drops the pollen count a bit, that's a bonus. BDH and Little Buddha say it's supposed to clear up around noon. That works. In the meantime, let's check out today's headlines. The guys made coffee, so grab yourself... Read more →

Hi everyone, Welcome back! How are you? I was up past my bedtime once again, thanks to the Stanley Cup Finals. It was worth it, mind you, but I'll be moving slowly today. The only real issue is that I have a meeting later this morning, so I'm going to need some coffee ahead of time to make sure I'm not just blankly staring at the other people in the room. As it turns out, BDH and Little Buddha just made a fresh pot, so grab yourself a nice medium DD, and let's clear out some Monday Clutter. We were... Read more →

Hi everyone, Welcome back! Come on in, have a seat. How's your weekend going so far? I was running around like a madman yesterday. It was a little crazy, but it was also productive, and the weather was gorgeous, so I'll take it. I think I fell asleep about 10 seconds after going to bed, but then I woke up in the middle of the night because it sounded like there were bottle rockets going off in the driveway. However, the noise stopped right after I looked out the window. People were definitely shooting off fireworks in the neighborhood when... Read more →
