    Actually, I should more correctly say, a link to another good post.  I like the Erratic Engineeress’ blog and I like her no-nonsense, common-sense approach to the Corona Virus concern.  She’s written another post that has many links to actual scientific data.  It’s called UNDERSTANDING COVID-19: RELEVANT LITERATURE. I have…

    So I ran across this phrase in a comic strip and thought, “I really should write about the term and what it means and its usage.”  Except that, I let it sit in my drafts folder for a long time and couldn’t remember what comic strip I saw it in…

    I’ve seen this title a few times around the Internet today, but there is always a comment attached to the photos or whatever. Or some Lorem Ipsum text, which was kind of weird. Especially since the original filler text, used by printers from way before the Internet, is real words,…

    The problem that I have with pre-scheduling posts is that I get used to something being there and ready, then discovering that I haven’t done anything for today. Some posts require a lot more energy and time than others, though. I do enjoy writing and I like to think that…

    I am going to start another new weekly feature. Along with Curmudgeonly Monday, I am going to have “Throw It Back Thursday.” Sure, everybody else does “Throwback Thursday,” but I have some ideas for posts that stink so bad that they smell like a fish that needs to be thrown…
