Sometimes, you just have to watch Japanese monster movies. They can be somewhat reassuring that people can unite behind a common foe and defeat it, whether it be a radioactive lizard or a scourge from beyond this solar system. I’m typing this while I watch a tv show about robots fighting each other. It’s a …

Day 19,741
Hello, future grandchildren, old fat Grampa Bob chatting at you from the past, hoping that something, one thing, I ever write will have a positive effect on you sometime in your lives. Hey, a guy can hope, right. I had a brief interaction with an old housemate/roommate today, and it was slightly interesting, but I …

Day 19,740
Hi, kids. This is the part where I would say something to the effect of “fat, old Grampa Bob here”. Thanks for the heads up, Captain Obvious… seriously, which other Grampa blogs are you guys reading about now? To be honest, I hope you discover more and more of your ancestors writing things down about …

Day 19,739
Hi kids, old fat grampa guy here to write his nightly blog. Tonight, I’m at a bit of a loss for words, but somehow, someway, I’m going to crank out a couple of hundred words that might (no guarantees) be worth reading. Nah! Seriously, though, we’ve had a good night around here. Gracie went up …

Day 19,738
Hi kids, Grampa Bob here again. Today is a sad day in America. Last night, during an open-air concert in Las Vegas, a murderer took it upon himself to check into a room on the 32nd floor fo the Mandalay Bay casino, break out a window, and, with 19 guns available to him, opened fire …

Day 19,737

Today was supposed to be a national day of protest… people were going to shut off the TV, stay home, and boycott the NFL… the National Football League. I spelled that out because I am somewhat …

Day 19,736
Hi kids, Grampa Bob back again. What are we going to chat about tonight…hmmm… what do you think about empathy and respect? I’m hoping you live in a world with a hope agenda. Sadly, right now, we’re living in a time where the fear agenda seems to be the priority. Bigots and racists are crawling …

Day 19,735
OK… that was funny. I thought I had a smudge of dirt on m computer screen… not, it was an errant apostrophe. Normally, I write a note to my future grandchildren. Today, I’ll go in a different direction. American Airlines sucks. One of the obnoxious trends that airlines have fallen into in the last few …

Day 19,734
Day 19,734 was a good day. So the last few days have had a couple of challenges. Lower back has been giving me fits. Today I tried something new. Instead of wearing this pair of blue running shoes (can you still call them running shoes when you never run?), I decided to wear my deck …

Day 19,733
Hey gang, Grampa Bob her, and I’m ner to tell you that you ol’ Grampa is a wimp. Seriously. I’ve got a pinched nerve in my hip, and it hurts. I had been invited to some festivities tonight, but I bowed out. I’m having a hard time standing up straight and moving around. But… I …
