I grew up in Alsea, Oregon. My friend Michael McCowan and I spent 27 hours a day wandering around in the woods, and we kept our eyes peeled because we figured there was always a chance we might stumble across a bigfoot. We weren’t stupid. We knew there was no guarantee we’d see one. In […]
Like you, I have been watching too much tv lately. And now that all the dead people have finally mailed in their ballots for “Good ‘ole Joe,” Wolf Blitzer can get back to hyperventilating over Covid-19.

Grossmeyer, the last undecided voter in America, explained his dilemma over whether to watch the debate that night. “Look,” he said to Sandoval, slowly and carefully choosing his words, “It’s […]
When we think of combat sports, we think of MMA fighting and boxing. The image of a cat fighting a roll of paper towels inside a bathtub isn’t often the first thing to come to mind. I had never seen or heard of such a thing myself until I was leaning over to start shaving […]
No, I didn’t make it all the way home with my grocery bag on top of my car, but I darn well gave it my best! I am many things, but I AM NOT A QUITTER! When I got home, I put the bag back on top to memorialize my stupidity for posterity, and, of […]
