A MORNING DAWDLE

No one is "exactly the same" on social media as they are at home. I'm not even sure it's possible. The process of writing about your life changes it.

A MONDAY MORNING DAWDLE

The Dawdler What’s a typical or average day look like for you from when you awaken to the day to when you retire for the night? I finally give up trying to sleep. I listen to whatever book I'm into for maybe an hour, then I get up. I feed the birds, give Duke his … Continue reading A MONDAY MORNING DAWDLE

FPQ #107: HIATUS OR JUST WIFI INTERRUPTUS? ROUND TWO!

Fandango’s Provocative Question #107: HIATUS For all practical purposes, I am on hiatus. There is just so much stuff that I have time for. I don't have the time to deal with running up posts every day and still managing my life. Not that I wouldn't like to do it, but I think my ability to … Continue reading FPQ #107: HIATUS OR JUST WIFI INTERRUPTUS? ROUND TWO!

HOT ONES AND COLD ONES – Marilyn Armstrong

A couple of years ago, I discovered my most popular post was black & white pictures of implements in my kitchen. Also well-favored were cute pictures of Bonnie and a 300-word piece on why I'd like to be called "Spike."

Where it stayed, showing a gradual, slow but steady upward movement with occasional shots of one post being exceptionally popular and periodic dips, especially … Continue reading STATS AND BUMPS ALONG THE WAY – Marilyn Armstrong

LIFE. EXPONENTIALLY. – By Tom Curley

Did you see DJT on Fox and Friends this morning? Or maybe you saw him on Colbert this evening. He was also on the evening news, so if you watched TV at all, you saw him. It was also all over social media. Whoa! Talk about out of control. It would have been funny if … Continue reading LIFE. EXPONENTIALLY. – By Tom Curley

LOSING IS THE OTHER SIDE OF WINNING – SUPER BOWL LII

Since the Patriots became a "real" football team in 2001, there have been 18 super bowls. The Patriots won five. Lost three. The other 10 Super Bowls were won by other teams and the Patriots weren't in the game. The Patriots won 5 Super Bowls -- one fewer than the Steelers, by the way -- … Continue reading LOSING IS THE OTHER SIDE OF WINNING – SUPER BOWL LII

THE MOST POPULAR POSTS OF 2017

These are not necessarily my favorite posts, though a few are. These are posts that got a lot of hits -- and are not reblogs. I also -- with one exception -- didn't include photo-only posts. It was too much like comparing pineapples to raspberries. DESCENDING FROM THE GOLDEN HORDE – B+ AND ME - … Continue reading THE MOST POPULAR POSTS OF 2017
