I heard someone describe a Muppet performer visit his workplace, and he pulled out the Muppet he'd brought (Telly I think) and he said everyone got as excited as if a celebrity had just appeared.

Because that's exactly what had just happened.

I once saw her described as "every Kids in the Hall cast member playing a different female role simultaneously" and that is so spot on...

I use ereaderIQ. Make a list of ebooks you want and a target price, and the site emails you when a book on your list drops below your price. I rarely spend more than $3 for an ebook anymore, and I always have a stack of stuff to read.

You think you've got it bad: I'm allergic to cotton. They gave me pills for it... but I can't get them out of the bottle.

It's like living in a war and every day there's news of the latest attacks except the attacker is the president.

Hey, everyone has a type.

I used to slice mine thin-ish, lay on a cookie sheet (must use nonstick spray), spray with spray butter, sprinkle garlic salt, and bake at 450° for 10-15 minutes, then flip, spray, sprinkle, another 10-15. That was my entire meal and I loved it.

I'll put it this way: have you ever heard from anyone who came in *second* at one of those "tournaments"?

I'll answer for you: no, you have not. No one came in second. There were no other entrants. Every time, a tournament of one.

Apparently we forgot how to keep them out of Nazi hands.

He will 100% show it off to people and say "Here is my Nobel peace prize", oblivious that it's meaningless unless it was awarded to you.

Jeff Hays does an amazing job with the voices. A few additional performers join in the later books but he manages most of the massive cast himself.

One sentence synopsis: the world ends, and Carl and his cat are forced to fight through a world dungeon on an interplanetary reality game show.

Dungeon Crawler Carl. Trust me. Audiobooks if possible, or if you read the hard copy first (like me) then do the audio. The eighth book comes out in a few months.

"We need public officials to allow law enforcement to do their jobs."

Speaking for the public: actually, we need public officials. Maybe you know some.

You know what, this is good, for real.

This means their personal cell phones have evidence on them. They are subject to subpoena. And if they delete anything, they can be charged with felony evidence tampering.

Or "phenomenon".
Or, unfortunately, "cadaver dog".
January 9, 2026 at 10:31 PM
Then that is another felony, whether or not he is cleared of the killing. Tampering with Evidence. For his sake, he'd better not delete it.

Early DVD box designs were all over the place. One of my most hated models was commonly called the "finger eater". No way to remove the disc without leaving some of your fingerprint behind.

Letterkenny and Shoresy, bud. Pitter patter.

When I was still doing IT for a living I came across a job posting for a computer guy at the Creature Shop in Burbank.

I had every qualification in aces, except film and television experience.

Talk about a dream job, though.

The purpose of entitlements should be to ensure that as many people as possible who need the help, receive the help.
