Happy Easter from the Bar

Once again, our shared story from the bar is somewhat inspired by Linda G. Hill and her Stream of Consciousness Saturday prompt. Linda couldn’t have known that our favorite bartender has a sweet tooth and a sharing spirit, but she still pitched us a softball with: “Your Friday prompt for Stream of Consciousness Saturday is...

Thursday Doors – New Commute Doors

My new ‘back way’ home from work has brought me in contact with several interesting doors. In addition to the doors I featured from the library and town hall and those of St. John’s Church, I’ve collected several random doors. Those of you in the door business know how that goes – you’re photographing the... Continue Reading →

You’re From Where? – #1LinerWeds

Tomorrow is Opening Day! Go ahead, google that. You don’t need to add ‘MLB’ or ‘Baseball’ – ‘Opening Day’ works fine. America’s pastime. We may get more spun-up over football, and they might still be playing basketball and hockey, but Baseball starts tomorrow. For a few lucky fans, it will continue into October – probably...

The Hearings

If you pay attention to technology news, political news, or even fake news, you no doubt heard about the data-mining over at Facebook. I was considering explaining how a few thousand people trying to figure out what Norse god or comic book hero they are most related to, morphed into 50 million peoples’ privacy being...

Have Laptop Will Travel – #SoCS

Linda G. Hill is making my life difficult. It’s time to go to the bar, but the Stream of Consciousness Saturday prompt has arrived and it’s going to be hard to work with: "Your Friday prompt for Stream of Consciousness Saturday is 'picture.' Write about, or theme your post on the first picture you see... Continue Reading →

Burlington MASS – #Thursday Doors – Meh

In the past three weeks, we’ve had three nor’easters and the threat of a fourth nor’easter that fizzled, unless it didn’t. At one point, they were predicting an all-day event that would dump 12"(30.5cm) of snow and then blow it around from one corner of the state to the other. Now, it’s supposed to keep...

Who Let Him Pick Paint? #1linerWeds

Since I am colorblind, choosing paint has never been my responsibility. One local hardware store owner used to say he wouldn’t sell me paint unless I had a note from my wife. However, when I made those barn door style shed doors last fall, I had to pick out the paint, if the doors were... Continue Reading →

Advertising Miscues

I’ve had a draft kicking around in Trello (the project management program I keep my drafts in) since January 2015. I think it’s time I write this post and move the card into the “Published” column. The original idea came in response to Mattress Firm wrapping their Sunday ad around the comics. I hate when... Continue Reading →

Dan vs. the Cable Company

As has become my habit, this visit to the bar was inspired by was influenced by gives a nod to Linda G. Hill’s Stream of Consciousness Saturday prompt. Unfortunately, the rules of SoCS have been violated in the extreme. I left a tiny bit of dialog that worked in place, but that’s about the only... Continue Reading →
