Good evening, gentle folks, and any of my progeny that had nothing better to do than read my blog. It’s been an interesting day. God a little sick from cleaning up some stuff that I probably should have been wearing at least a mask while cleaning (insecticide). Some of it got into the air and …

Hello, gang! It’s Tuesday night here in Noria… that is correct. I jumped into a mapping program, and I found out that the name of this area of Douglas County is listed as “Noria” on some maps. I kind of like that name, primarily due to the rhyme with Moria from “The Lord of the …

Good evening, kids! It’s the old man, coming to you live once again from rural Douglas County, for whatever that’s worth. Today is Labor Day, a day off for many Americans, where we recognize the American worker, and their contributions to the society we enjoy today. Or, if you’re Trump, you get on social media …

Hey kids, it’s the old man again, Grampa Bob coming to you live from rural Douglas County on the Sunday night that is September 2, 2018. It’s gotta be a little weird for you, the reader. My intended audience is you, the grandchild, maybe great-grandchild that I know, or, sad for me, didn’t get a …

Hi, kids! It’s the old guy. Yeah, it’s Saturday night in rural Douglas County. I just watched the University of Kansas lose to a D-!! school from Louisana. Kansas Football sucks. It really does. At this point in time, I figure KU will not win a single game this football season, and we’ll have a …

Hey kids! It’s the old guy here again in rural Douglas County, just doing my thing. A recap of the day as I see it. Apparently, last night at a rally – keep in mind at political rallies, you can screen the attendees – no opposition representation – Trump claimed to have stories that would make …

Good evening, my future grandchildren! It’s a Thursday night in rural Douglas County, and fat old Grampa Bob is watching the last pre-season football game for the Kansas City Chiefs, and the second-stringers looked pretty good tonight. I know it doesn’t count, but it could’ve been worse. By the way, football is a game that …

Hello, and good evening to you! It’s a beautiful overcast evening in rural Douglas county, and I’m pondering the universe while watching a NOVA special on the art of Japanese paper folding, origami. It’s a little bit crazy what people can do with a folded piece of paper. This is an amazing topic. I can …

Hey, kids, the old man hasn’t kicked yet, so it looks like another missive from the family place here in rural Douglas County. Dogs are being unmanageable tonight. Lots and lot of barking. Earlier, the interaction between the three dogs was a little more than I could deal with, so I went to the office. …

Day 20,068
It’s a beautiful Monday night rural Douglas County, with three planets visible in the night sky. The main thing, however, is the extended 29th birthday of my beloved, she who must be obeyed, my love, my wife, Lisa. You might know her as Gramma. We had a crazy day as a family. I tried to …
