By the Way, How Is Your Ping-Pong?

The great W.C. Fields in another of my favorite sequences, from "You Can't Cheat an Honest Man" (1939), the year of "Gone With the Wind," "The Wizard of Oz," and this tense saga of Larson E. Whipsnade.

Meanwhile...

Cat photos: Where's Morty?

Morty is peeved. That's where.

He missed "Puppy Bowl IV."


He likes the violence. He's an animal.


The game conflicted with his 10-hour nap, so he didn't see the "Kitty Half-Time Show" either.

I had reminded him to set his TiVo, but you can't tell kids anything.

Life in the Cast Lanes

I missed the Klingons vs. Furries bowling duel.

It's tough being Mikey.

Thanks to William Colquitt for sending me the announcement from Global Nerdy.

Two things:

1. Donna would not have let us attend the event, complaining about bowling alley air clogged with Furries and Klingon dander.

Nevertheless, I find size #20 Klingon and Furries rental shoe fumes to be the best weight loss program.

It's not the feet. It's the humidity.

2. There's a Global Nerdy?

Actually, I prefer fiercer competitive bowling than a wimpy klatch o' Klingons.

I'm waiting for The Ultimate 10-Pin Punch-out Smackdown Cutthroats:

God Is in My Corner

I was feeling discouraged on my birthday, so I asked for a sign.

Two minutes later, there it was.


"Firecracker Chicken Taquito."

After decades of indecision, I have found my wrasslin' name.

Cure Curve

I'm reading about this Prednisone prescription I've been taking.

It's a STEROID!


*sigh*

There goes the Baseball Hall of Fame...
