Vanilla enjoying a Starbucks "pup cup"

There is a very nice park about a mile from the house with miles and miles of trails. We like to take Vanilla there a few times a week if it's dry. I found these pictures from a walk from more than a year

Don’t say what, Dixon. We could not wait to see this film. I was disappointed. The only redeeming part of the film, if you ask me, were two excellent performances by McDormand and Rockwell. She was excellent.

O woman, we gonna burn in hell! The Post was a movie I didn’t love that told two great stories. The Shape of Water is a great film that tells a story I don’t really get. Certainly worth of the thirteen

Not too many people participated in my first contest, so it didn't make too much money, but I hope it will improve as the contest gets more out in the open. The winners of this first contest, although

I love to share my favorite quotes from any film I see. Over the last few years, I’ve even started to ask my son and daughter after the film “so what was my favorite quote?” It’s a fun exercise in how

Seeing home doesn’t help us get there, Captain. A little while ago, before I saw Dunkirk, my daughter asked me “which are your favorite three Nolan films?” Two of his films are among my favorites overall,

Whenever I write a movie review I have the urge to explain why the reviews are so short and lacking in plot details. Since I’ve decided to post reviews more than once a week, I thought I should just write

As I’ve written about before, my enthusiasm for the NFL is waning (while my interest in the NBA is re-emerging). But this year I have been pretty excited about the playoffs. Last week, we had two teams

I posted these over on my blog a few minutes ago and I thought I should probably share them here too. Just a few screenshots from a while back that I thought were a cool.

I started blogging in the late 90s and I didn't really have a niche. Back then blogs were about what the name suggested - short for weblog, a log on the web. So, everyone really just wrote about whatever

He knew it was only a matter of time before they'd find out. After forty years trying to keep it a secret, he knew the truth would be revealed after all. That terrified him. He would finally be found out

Becky was not able to join us this year, but we kept the tradition alive. With the release of some DC films recently and on the horizon, we thought a few superhero jack-o'-lanterns might be in order. And

Every year for the last twenty years or so, we have enjoyed a family tradition of carving pumpkins. In 2002, we moved to a neighborhood with hundreds of houses and we started trying to come up with fun

I received this one about a week ago. I do not now, nor have I ever owned or operated any business where I had truck drivers. :) image: Wikimedia Commons

Yesterday, we decided to head to Delaware Park for Beers and Gears 2017. We've been to both beer festivals and car shows before and we've enjoyed both, so we figured why not check them out at the same

It's obviously not the best sales technique in the world, but every time I see this episode and every time I'm reminded of it - which is every time the topic of selling comes up - I can't help but think
