EXCELSIOR!

I apologize to my loyal readers (both of you - you know who you are!) for not updating for several weeks. I also apologize for the stupidity of the updates, when they are eventually posted.

So, how's by you this past weekend? I checked out the annual Grape Festival down in Naples, New York (at the southern end of the stunningly beautiful Canandaigua Lake). They sell a great local delicacy there this time of year - GRAPE PIE. I'm so excited about it because I thought it would be terrible (sicky-sweet and such), but it was actually really good. I even found a fun article about the origins of grape pie, because I'm good like that.

So, anyways, that's the latest thing. Otherwise, I've been busy at work and at home. I had an unintentional swimming pool installed in my back yard the weekend before last, courtesy of a freak storm. But that's dried up now. I'm also excited about the fantastic web-comic-man John Allison's latest foray - an exploration of his artistic process, done in the style of Marvel Comics legend/gasbag Stan Lee! EXCELSIOR, as ol' Stan the Man would say. Hey, that also happens to be the motto of our fair state of New York, home of the Grape Pie. Wheels within wheels, I tell you.

Whoa - scathing

Square-jawed homunculus and Cornell alum Keith Olbermann's recent commentary about our government's response to that bad ol' hurricane can only be described as scathing. I pretty much never watch MSNBC or any other TV news program - thankfully, we have the internet now.

Bad stuff, man. Let's hope our leaders can come to some sort of consensus on how to keep us all safe. Frankly, I ain't got that much hope left.

I got your Chief Justice right here!


The next Chief Justice of the Supreme Court of the United States of America should be Mr. Benjamin A. Scales, Esquire! He will dispense immediately with all stupid stuff from the Constitution, and ensure that no more stupid stuff gets added.

Wow, I can't believe that is the only picture I have of Ben. He will no doubt exile me to Canada once he does rise to power.
