Sena Hates Her New Smartphone!
Since we’ve gotten new smartphones, we’ve been working on getting up to speed on how to use them. More often they seem to be using us. In fact, Sena is pretty bummed about how much fiddling around with a smartphone you have to do. She used a little flip phone for years and this is…

Huston-Tillotson University News!
I feel like I should put on my Huston-Tillotson College (H-TC) news reporter press tag for this brief announcement, which you can get pretty much anywhere on the web anyway. Just a reminder, I was a reporter for the Ramshead Journal back in the 1970s for H-TC (now H-T University). The breaking news is that…

Svengoolie Show Movie: “The Night Strangler”
I saw the 1973 made for TV movie “The Night Strangler” directed by Dan Curtis and starring Darrin McGavin as the investigative reporter Carl Kolchak. I’ve never seen the first Kolchak movie, “The Night Stalker.” The gist of The Night Strangler plot is that some guy in Seattle is strangling women and getting a little…

Big Mo Pod Show: “Passin’ the Torch”
I caught the Big Mo Pod Show last night and listened to the podcast this afternoon. That’s later than I usually do because we were running around today learning how to use our new smartphones. You know, the makers don’t send the phones with even basic instructions. I guess they just expect you to guess…

We Finally Got New Phones
Well, we finally got new phones after several years. I think we bought the old ones from Fred Flintstone. I probably should have got a new phone after the battery swelled up in it so big it was starting to split the case. That was over 5 years ago. I have an iPhone 17 Pro…

Will There Be a Men in Black 5 or Not?
As a big fan of the Men in Black (MIB) movies, my burning question is: Will there be an MIB 5 or not? Probably not in my lifetime, which is sad. I’m not really as big a fan of any other films, despite what you might think of my Svengoolie movie reviews—which are always tongue…

Upcoming Svengoolie Movie: “The Night Strangler”!
Svengoolie Intro: “Calling all stations, clear the air lanes, clear all air lanes for the big broadcast!” This coming Saturday, the Svengoolie show movie will be the 1973 horror flick, “The Night Strangler” starring Darrin McGavin who plays an investigative reporter/detective named Carl Kolchak, which I’ve never seen. Neither did I see the first movie,…

Svengoolie Show Movie: “Tarantula”
I watched the Svengoolie show movie “Tarantula” last night, although I fell asleep for what turns out to have been about 20 minutes or so during the second half hour of this 1955 film about radioactive nutrient producing a giant tarantula. I had to catch up on what I missed on the Internet Archive. Don’t…

My Balls Glow in the Dark!
Here’s another video on head stall juggling, this time using glow in the dark juggling balls. They’re heavier and I drop more often. On the other hand, when one hit the glass top coffee table, it didn’t leave a scratch! It did make a heck of a racket, though. I did switch off between left…

CDC ACIP Highlights on Covid 19 Vaccine
There was a lot to digest in today’s CDC ACIP meeting on Covid-19 vaccines. I missed the morning sessions but managed to see a few of the afternoon presentations. The presentation by Dr. Retsef Levi, PhD, MIT, ACIP Work Group Chair, the Covid -19 Vaccine Discussion Framing Work Group (WG) was basically pretty critical of…
