The way I want to see if any players of a D&D campaign would mess with a Bag of Holding and Portable Hole.
Would I give them both items? Yes, they’re my favorite items.
Would I tell them what happens if you put one inside the other? No, I would not.
Let the chaos and potential heartbreak ensue

Bill Holley, who died in 2021, designed the original 1977 Cracker Barrel logo.

“He would not have liked the plain Jane logo,” his wife Beverly Holley said. “Because it really says nothing about the restaurant.”
He designed the Cracker Barrel logo. Now it’s caught in a culture war.
Bill Holley would be thrilled the company kept his logo, his wife said. “I think Bill’s holding his hand up and saying, ‘I made Cracker Barrel great again!’”

Being forced to do overtime at work for the last few nights and getting home at 3am has really put a damper on my blogging schedule.

I have no posts and haven’t even drafted anything for this week.
Hopefully the production slows a little and I get to go home on time tonight or tomorrow.

No blog post today. I had to work overtime last night (which was odd) and didn't leave my workplace until 2:30am
Awake now, but too tired to write a post.
Will write two tonight for tomorrow
Detectives These Days are Crazy! and Welcome to the Outcast's Restaurant Ep 4 coming Thursday 10:30a/2:00p

With You and the Rain episode 3 was a slow, heartfelt exprience. Friends, cooking, and the beach bring a new meaning to the mundane.

Wondering if anyone who reads my blog on the webpage itself has realized what I'm doing with my "Quote of the Week".

If not, keep an eye on that over the next two weeks and see how it changes. It's anime-related, and some times the vibe fits a lot of the episode reviews I have--which is cool
August 18, 2025 at 3:22 PM
Almost caught up on episode reviews. Two more and then I'll be back on track. Still a day or two behind, but I'll make that up this week.
On to the next one soon!
