Just voted to outlaw slavery in Colorado. Just in time too. Voted straight blue ticket on candidates. Once we get slavery outlawed we'll throw a weed party to celebrate. We legalized weed several years

It's take your dog to work everyday when you live in a van, and in my case, the term 'work' is very loosely defined. Enjoy.

I don't get by here often enough but things are going swell up here in the high mountain meadows as I enter my forth winter in Nellybelle. I lost my precious Bandit to old age last year but recently took

As if my aging decrepitude wasn't enough to remind me to keep a tight reign on my fabulosity, I've got this confounded 'old man' up-before-dawn thing running buck wild through me now. The only thing I'm

In my role as devilishly handsome #hoboheretic advocate, I queried the counter staff at Sister Mary's this morning about the consequences it could have on the soul of one whose belief system forbade any

Good morning to my collected gaggle of social media masters and misfits as well! It's a cold start to what will be a masterful mid-seventy degree day here in the flowering plains of the high mountain meadows.

It's Easter, that time of the year when a lot of you will be celebrating our long cultural connection to the lost religious art of human sacrifice. For me it's near enough to the anniversary of the loss

Work continues on The Hobo Heretic Handbook. Here's a snippet on item number two from the Hobo Creed, ratified 1889, and my take on it. When in town, always respect the local law and officials, and try

Let's talk about the intersectionality between capitalism and Cinemark theater marketing. I probably could have used a different word than intersectionality, but given my penchant for fabulosity (and on

It's a blustery 25 degrees out this evening with 15 mph winds whipping snow across Nellybelle's windshield here in the high mountain meadows parking spot I'm calling mine right now. The glow from nearby

For reasons I am not able to comprehend, an old blogpost I did on Why Walmart Failed in Germany is suddenly getting a ton of traffic directly from Google search. I can usually track these bursts back to

There's good news and there's bad news. The good news is that I am no longer in Chip's garage. I rolled out of there yesterday afternoon with the belt squealing and whining like a stuck pig. Knew it couldn't

Tomorrow morning will be day ten of the Nellybelle oil pump restoration project. This has been a rather stressful ten days, abated somewhat by the fact that I'm doing the repairs in the garage at a friend's

I was just in the 7-11 at Trilby and 287 this morning getting my coffee when the new assistant manager decided it would be a good idea to brow beat me for having a food stamp card. I mentioned I didn't

Good Morning Steemies Tremendous weather out here in the high mountain meadows. We did get a light dusting of snow last night but it's been highs in the 60's for the last week, and though it's brisk outside

Did you know you had one? I didn't. I was just tapping thru the FB app last night after finishing a late posting here on Steemit when I saw the tab. There were text mail messages in it that were several

Good evening Steemies. Today Today was a good day for me. I got a couple things done today, the most important of which was contacting the county where I got my marriage license (28 years ago) to retrieve

Nellybelle is back up and running. Unlike her namesake Jeep on Roy Rogers (best known for a habit of breaking down at the worst possible moments) my Nellybelle picked a near perfect time and place to throw

I've finally earned something more valuable than gold. The ability to freely speak my mind on sensitive issues that would have been impossible for me to address before I retired. For most of my working

I went to Walmart today to purchase a few items (propane, food, and a Coleman camp stove). I figured it was about time to get a portable stove even though I've gone two years without one. I got a small
