Mile 73

It's Friday Furry Bastard Blogging, now on Thursday! It's how we roll here, bitches! Tomorrow is a travel day for me, and you won't be at work wasting time and reading blogs tomorrow anyway. So TODAY is a good day to pound another nail into my eventual spinster-crazy-cat-lady coffin. This is an email discussion I had with Dave, who is unabashedly afraid of cute, furry kitties: "I think it's...

I can be somewhat passionate about topical "issues," but don't really like to argue about politics. I'm opinionated, but I'm non-confrontational. And a little bit lazy. It's a great combo. I can't remember when (if ever) I've had a constructive discussion about politics with someone who had a vastly different political persuasion.

97 degrees Saturday. 94 degrees Sunday. I moved to the Arctic Circle (which Oregon is a part of) to get away from this hot weather bull crap.

And, I live in a one-room studio, with no way to separate myself...

I was staying in a scary motel known for drug deals and murders, and was using free wifi at coffee shops. It took about a week to get an apartment and about a month to get a job. I was understandably antsy about getting a job as soon as possible. I had been slightly bamboozled by one of...

In the 24 hours I've had the post up introducing Angryletterman.com, the site has gotten have a dozen visits from Enterprise Rent a Car. And a visit from Capitol One. But I also got a visitor who arrived here by searching for "giant man eats doo doo ball." I run a class outfit, folks....

I'm not too demanding, and most people who meet me would say that I'm pretty easy to get along with. Some would say downright pleasant. Actually, quite charming and witty. And easy on the eyes. I'm just telling you what I've heard. While I don't get irritated easily or often, you know who pisses me off? Insurance companies. Insurance companies suck! Especially health insurance! And...
