If you leave something hanging in the closet long enough will all of the wrinkles you were too lazy to iron be gone?

When you live a mostly unscented life, walking down the laundry detergent aisle may make others think that your dog has just died.

Every few days, the next dead person(s) on the list comes off the wall for a dusting.
After a month or three I start again at the top of the list.

I don't understand people who are unhappy with daylight savings time.
The sun & earth determine how much daylight we get each day.
The time on the clock does not.

Someone should invent a disposable glove from layers of paper towels for people who ride their bicycles in the cold weather.


Are there still any restaurants that have peanut shells all over the floor?

I remember them from my youth before allergies were a thing.

Buildings at the end of the block rarely get trick-or-treaters
Looks like another zero this year

I do always buy candy I like
Just in case

Many decades ago, when I was young, we would go into the Chicago neighborhood bars each night the whole week before Halloween with our costumes.

I don't think our parents had any clue that we did that.
Easy money.

One of my many important life missions:

Finding a coffee cake that isn't dehydrated sweet bread with a little flavor drizzled on top.

leaf, leaf, leaf, leaf, leaf, POOP!!, leaf, leaf, leaf,...

The dangers of fall bicycling on a trail shared with inconsiderate dog owners.

I ask the same questions every time I do laundry.

When did I wear all these clothes?
How can I be naked more often?

If I were seven, I might think the DIY touch screens at restaurants were fun.

Now I'm just a grumpy old man.

I told myself that I should not buy anymore.
But I'm a sucker for the 75% off tags.

The idea of sleeping in different places depending on the day of the week seems so odd to me.

Several people in my building seem to do that.

One pillow is my preference.

The longer you are alive, the more money and energy you spend trying to keep it that way.

Israel claims Hamas bombed their own hospital with a rocket.

If that's true, wouldn't they be able to prove that with their "Iron Dome" defense system which knows within seconds when a rocket is launched in the West Bank?

Couldn't they turn over their data to a third party to verify?

One big drawback of living alone is that there is nobody to blame for mess, disorganization, and no more cookies left in the cupboard.

Not feeling that you need to speak when next to someone you know is a skill I highly admire.

You know you are a nerd when you think of something funny and buy the domain.

Even though most other people would not even chuckle at it.

Lately, I have caught myself waving my hand at home as if I am scanning the room to make sure all tasks are done and everything is where it should be.

I shall call this phase 1, where my madness began.
