It was time to make a change in my diet. For starters, no more blueberry donuts at breakfast. No more unhealthy snacking throughout the day. I realized I haven’t been myself lately. I had no energy. No enthusiasm. I was listless. Plain lazy. I didn’t want to walk. I didn’t want to play. Even …
It has been too long since I’ve written any dribble for this humor site…and even longer since I’ve posted a “Brain Drain.” For those of you who are unfamiliar, “Brain Drain” is simply a post where I pull the plug on my cerebral cortex and empty out what has been a bug in my …
Since the release of the movie “Unfrosted” (on Netflix), the world has been abuzz with chatter about Pop Tarts. For good reason too. Everyone knows about them.

Call it an early spring cleaning of my writing journal. Enjoy!… SENSEI SHOPPING Police in Washington state say a man wielding a samurai sword & threatening to …

Or did we somehow enter a time warp vortex and are back in the 1990’s…when ‘Seinfeld’ was the most watched TV show…the Yugo was the most joked about automobile…and Hooters was a popular, eye-popping restaurant? Today, ‘Seinfeld’ still hangs around in reruns. …
All right, just stop it. We have put up with this shit for some time now-so it has come time to cease. You’ve had your little fun…got it out of your system. But it is best to quit with the games. Hang it up. And bury it. I’m talking about things that currently annoy …
As 2023 winds down, it’s time for those mind-numbing retrospects of the past year we all try to forget. As high-brow as My Odd Sock may be, even I can’t resist a quick peek back at the campy pictures/photographs I have subjected you to seeing over the past twelve months. My deepest apologies. …
