I read a very dumb thing on Twitter yesterday regarding the guest host lit for Jeopardy. I discuss it here. … More Jeopardy and the Dumbest Thing I Read Online Yesterday
Recently my blogging friend wrote a post about reading that was featured on the Discover page of WordPress. I’m not jealous at all. Not one bit. Nope. Anyway, this is not about my jealousy. This is about what I thought about with that post. I responded that I didn’t think i was smarter or better … More You Are Probably Better Than Me
In my post yesterday, I mentioned that I didn’t get a lot of suggestions when I asked for ideas for future posts. Matt from a Prolific Potpourri commented that I should write about taters. I won’t do that, but I will do an origin story for Tater. Much like Clark Kent has always been Superman … More The Rise of Tater: An Origin Story
I recently had no idea what to wrote so I asked readers to give me ideas. I got a few responses, but the majority of them were people saying what they like about what I’ve already written.

Or something like that. I can no longer see the post because very soon after that post she was no longer … More Losing Friends on Facebook
I started taking notes last night so I could write about Super Bowl commercials this morning. I might still write about it if I need a break from other things. I stopped taking notes pretty quick, though, because it was distracting me from actually enjoying the experience. I already had another distraction due to a … More A Strange Thing Happened on Twitter Last Night
The below status update up in my memories today. It reminds me that I used to be funny on social media. Someone once told me I should put all of my witty posts in a book. I think they were exaggerating my humor, but I used to be known for being funny. Maybe now that … More Back When I Was Funny on Facebook
A second person I knew online only from FriendFeed died recently. It made me think of this and the fact that I still haven’t told anyone my passwords in case anything happened to me. I recently found out that someone I only knew online passed away. We followed each other on Twitter, but did not … More Do You Have an Online Plan?
