When I first went to see Dr. Eggleston at Eggleston Dental Care in Turlock I could barely smile and eating was a challenge. Among a host of other issues, both of my canine teeth had crowns that had cracked and failed. I was gluing them in with Polydent each day. I had them re-cemented by…… MORE
I try not to spend too much time thinking about all the times I could easily have been killed but when I do I’m actually surprised I’m still alive. Putting crazy idiot drivers up and down 99 aside (yeah, I’m talking about you, guy who thinks the 30 feet between me and the car in…… MORE
My mom recently turned 74 and has been retired for about 4 years now. To fill her time she buys way too much crap off of the internet (Zulily, HSN and QVC) and is trying so hard to be the next Publishers Clearing House multi-millionaire. Recently she had me mail the 9 letters to Publishers…… MORE
There is nothing I love more than an Annihilator Freeze. It’s a bewitching concoction of a mocha frappe with Dutch Bros “Kicker Mix” which is half and half mixed with something amazing with added Torani Chocolate Macadamia Nut syrup which was obviously invented by a GENIUS (sung opera style).

Sitting on my desk when I got back from lunch today was this package that was delivered by the post office late because another package being delivered leaked an “unknown substance” onto my package.… MORE

If however, like many Americans (and myself) you e-file the federal government has granted a one day extension, to…… MORE
On Friday night I took my daughter to see an r&b artist named Marc E Bassy at the Fremont Theatre in San Luis Obispo. After the show we went to grab some food at a Taco Bell on Santa Rosa street and saw this mess. I used to live in SLO and the people who…… MORE
There is never a good time for unexpected bills. I owe Uncle Sam this year so of course it was a great time to find out I was going to have to go thousands of dollars out of pocket because she apparently hasn’t been flossing… and then, depression set in. Oh how nice it would…… MORE
