A Waste of Space
Why haven’t we witnessed a moonwalk since Apollo and Michael Jackson?
Are You Kidding Me?
Coming this fall- a new book by my good friend and colleague, Stacey.
Renfest, M’Lord?
In this web exclusive, the Dang Yankee reports on improvements to the campground at this year’s Texas Renaissance Festival.
Invasion of the Candy Snatchers
The Dang Yankee is taking a vacation during Halloween this year. He’s paying for it with the money he’s saving not having to buy candy.
Man of the Hour
In the movie Click, Adam Sandler had this remote control that he could use to affect time. He could make time go backwards or forwards, or he could stop it altogether. I would be satisfied to have just the stop time feature.
Happy Birthday, Lady Yankee!
Happy Birthday to my wife of 28 years, who is also the primary source of material for my humor. Good thing I married a good sport. (Ouch! That frying pan hurts!)
Malaprop Monday
Some time ago, I came up with a series of malaprop statements for posting on Twitter every Monday. I didn’t have many followers then, and I could still use to build my Twitter base more, quite frankly. But for those of you who missed them, which I’m sure applies to most readers, I thought that I would drag a few of them out again. Hopefully these will help brighten up your Monday.
Free Bird- Epilog
In an earlier post, I talked about how my new bird feeder didn’t attract any customers. Boy, how things have changed!
Superflowers
Gentlemen, why not consider a visit to Texas this spring to check out the wildflowers? The state’s rolling meadows are a spectacle this time of year. Your wives will love you for it, and, contrary to what you hear down at the bowling alley, it is not a gateway to scrapbooking.
