The Week In Some Black Panther Tweets

I bought a bird feeder. Unfortunately, it turned into a cat feeder.   The Olympics is bad for my diet. Every time they show the Olympic symbol, I get an urge for onion rings.   Some people call Wednesday "Hump Day." I call it "Three More Days Of Work."   The Olympics is bad for my diet. I can't believe how hungry I get watching the finest athletes in the world compete. That's why I train all year long.   In El Paso, Texas: Kern Place and Cincinnati Entertainment District patrons will soon have to PAY for parking!

Fifty Shades of Valentine's Day

For Valentine's Day, Christian decided to surprise me with a romantic trip to Italy.      I couldn't help but feel conflicted.      You see, my best friend Kate's marriage to Christian's brother was going through a bit of a rough patch due to the amount of traveling Elliot was having to do. Many was the night that Kate found herself alone in their mansion.      "I wish I were the kind of wife who always knew where her husband was," she once confided in me.      "And what kind of wife is that?" I asked her sympathetically.      "A widow."      But enough about Kate...      On our first night there, Christian spent the evening performing cunnilingus, and I'm not talking about an aria from an opera by Bizet.      The next afternoon, we found ourselves at an Italian restaurant.  ...

No Good Deed

as featured in Desert Exposure Magazine desertexposure.com   I don’t know what it is about newspapers, but they must think their readers have unlimited time and money to cook the recipes they feature in their pages.     Most of us, we have jobs. We don’t want to come home and spend hours fixing something that can easily be bought at Sam’s or Costco or the corner gas station. Not to mention the cleanup afterward. Also, if I fill my refrigerator with food, where am I going to keep my beer?     The recipes always seem to require a cornucopia of ingredients that you probably don’t have and will never use again. I don’t think Jesus multiplied the fishes into a number that high. It just seems to me that newspapers should acknowledge that we live in a different world now, and there’s no longer enough hours in the day for us to prepare these extravagant meals.     Recently, my local newspaper printed something by T...
