Gotcha…

The whole Rantionary concept has really taken off.  In the tradition of my string of “That Guy” posts, where I elected to take fan-based suggestions and expound on them, I’ve thrown open the Rants tome of vile, naughty and off-color words to the ‘Notes’ page and left the pen resting on the parchment for all y’all.  Here are Continue reading

Well, I’ve survived the epic snow dump thus far,  my only damage (if one could call it that) some lower back discomfort from the shovel work I did for MamaRants to clear the walk and driveway.  I find it amusing that these big storms make so much news.  I mean really – weather happens, people.  This wasn’t like the huge storm last year Continue reading

An interesting question, Mr. AutoTopic.  If you’ve followed me for any length of time, you know I’ve been through the circus of diagnosing sleep apnea and my subsequent fitting for my Darth Sleeper CPAP device.  However, Continue reading

A Little Competition

So here’s this idea I had that hopefully will spark a bit of a war… okay, firefight or skirmish… maybe just something that’s the equivalent of two Continue reading
