Every time I sit down to write a little note to you, who I hope are my future grandchildren, I try to think about writing something meaningful. I want to write something that makes you think, “Hey, ol’d Grampa Bob was kind of interesting. It would be nice just have lunch with him.” I’m not saying …

Day 19,781
It’s Tuesday night, Kansas is playing Kentucky in an early season non-conference matchup, and I have two hundred words to crank out as quickly as possible so I can get back to watching the game. Sessions had to meet before the Judiciary Committee today. It was a little ugly. Had to get an estimate on getting …

Day 19,780
Hello, my future grandchildren. It’s been an interesting day in the world. Where should I begin? Looks like a fifth accuser has come out discussing her experience being molested by Alabama judge (twice removed from the bench) Roy Moore. Looks like he was also banned from an area shopping mall in the 80’s for creeping out …

Day 19,779
My mind is all over the place tonight. There are people arguing over on Facebook over the quality of their material possession. I’ve got two wankers showing off pictures of their motorcycles and their four-by-fours thinking that they are settling some sort of argument. Weird from my perspective. People have their most valuable persona; possessions …

Day 19,778
Hello, once again, to my future grandchildren. Grampa is a bit pissed off tonight, so I thought I should add a little disclaimer before I went off on my two hundred word rant about the CiC. (To military folks, that means “Commander in Chief”. For me, it means “Cheeto in Charge). The man sitting in the …

Day 19,777
OK, I’m flat out letting you know that I am phoning this one in, another stream of thought attempt at getting two hundred words in because this fat old man is tired. Watched KU open their season tonight, running Tennessee State off the court. Enjoyable, expected, but nothing really to write home about, or write …

Day 19,776
Another night, another episode of blogger’s block. My class is going pretty well this week, I really can’t complain about things on that front. If any of you reading this are Dane’s kids, take this opportunity to bug him about not raking up the leaves in the yard. Gracie is a wizard in the kitchen, …

Day 19,775
Wednesday night, relaxing after a long day. Hope your day has gone well. I was thinking the other day about the types of jobs that don’t exist today but will likely exist in the future. I was rather taken with the idea of a food designer, someone who works with different food textures and flavors …

Day 19,774
Hey, I’m back. Thought about breaking into song, but nobody needs that. It’s an election night and looks like some things are breaking in a decidedly anti-Trump direction. Like D sweeps in a lot of major races. Trump is off in Korea, embarrassing the US on a worldwide stage. I can’t wait for the big indictments …

Day 19,773
It’s a Monday. As you may have discovered, some Mondays are more Monday-ish than others. Mine was OK. The real “Monday” didn’t hit ’til I got home. This whole process of trying to sell a house is a pain the ass. Inspections and finger-pointing. We’re on our second contract with the house, and I have …
