OSCAR NIGHT 2026

This is what happens when old geezers like me watch the Oscars when you haven't seen any of the nominated films and you couldn't care less about the nominees. ( Thank God for Marilyn Monroe!)

MORE WORDS TO LIVE BY!

WHEN SHOULD YOU THROW AWAY A PERFECTLY GOOD SUIT?

Even a "perfectly good" suit should be retired or thrown away when it is no longer structurally sound, no longer fits your body, or is severely out of style. A well-maintained, high-quality suit typically lasts between five and fifteen years.

THE SIGNALS FROM YOUR HOME APPLIANCES

ACTING 101

CLARINET PRACTICE IN THE BEDROOM...

The snake charmer flute produces a high-pitched, droning sound used to "charm" snakes, which actually react to the visual movement and vibrations of the instrument, not the music.  On the other hand, if the vibrations of a clarinet can charm one of the belts in my closet, then I don't know what! 

VALENTINE'S DAY 2026!

Just be careful when smelling the roses!

Anyway...enjoy your Valentine's Day!

LOVE OUT OF STOCK!

 I've reached a point in my life where love is simply not in the menu and I accept it as one of the many inevitable facts of getting older!

THE GROUNDHOG DAY MYSTERY!

IT'S NICE TO GO TRAV'LING!

Spent three weeks with my chosen daughter Allana and her four kids at Boerne, Texas. We had a wonderful time in spite of the freezing cold weather they were facing there.  As always, I was deeply saddened when we had to part ways although the trip provided me with some priceless and memorable moments. Time to be flying home came all too soon and I brought back great memories spent with my family there. 

And just like Sinatra said in a song: "It's very nice to go trav'ling but it's, oh, so nice to come home!"

THE WORLD WIDE WEB OF SPORTS!

"Fishing for likes" is the practice of posting content primarily to gain social validation rather than to inform or entertain. This behavior is driven by the brain's release of dopamine, creating an addictive, validation-seeking loop. It often involves self-deprecating, "pick me" content, or, on professional platforms, inauthentic engagement to boost metrics. (WIKIPEDIA)

Whether this is true or not, the fact is more people need to be liked on social networks like never before!
