  • Liaison Psychiatrist appointed to Wexford General Hospital in Ireland

    Liaison Psychiatrist appointed to Wexford General Hospital in Ireland

    A few days ago, I read a news article announcing that a liaison psychiatrist was appointed to Wexford General Hospital, which is located in Ireland. It has around 280 beds. I didn’t see the name of the liaison psychiatrist who will be the lone ranger psychiatric consultant there. That person has my deepest respect as…

  • Baby, They Took My Tooth Out!

    Baby, They Took My Tooth Out!

    This afternoon an oral surgeon yanked that tooth left behind after one of my crowns popped out while flossing in mid-June. It had to be removed in two pieces with a jigsaw the surgeon got for half price at Lowe’s Hardware. The procedure itself was completely painless after local anesthetic. They gave me a big…

  • The Buck Moon & Buck Rogers July 2026

    The Buck Moon & Buck Rogers July 2026

    I got a few pictures last night around 9:00 p.m. or so of the full (or nearly so) Buck Moon. Although the best night would have been on the 29th, the pictures still showed the moon having a rusty reddish-orange color. This morning at around 5:00 a.m., it was the usual whitish color. I saw…

  • Working on That Georgian Shuffle Juggle!

    Working on That Georgian Shuffle Juggle!

    I’ve been practicing the Georgian Shuffle juggling trick lately because the way I do it makes me think of the sound of an old train. So, a couple of days ago, I worked on it and it didn’t take too long until it looked a little better. I’m not sure why jugglers call the pattern…

  • Ordinary Juggling Magic Bonanza

    Ordinary Juggling Magic Bonanza

    You’d better take a mild sedative before watching my latest YouTube juggling video. I bet you didn’t know I can do magic tricks! Of course, the truth is I can’t, but that kind of thing never stops me. I got the magic trick from Daniel Menendez (also known as JuggleMan), an amazing juggler who is…

    Reblog Acts of Kindness Spotted in Walmart

    This is a reblog from 3 years ago that is really worth a repeat for the message about kindness it sends. We really need this nowadays.

    Reblog of “Mighty Hawk”

    Hey, this is a reblog of my post about the Red-tail hawk that couldn’t come up with a meal on this date in 2025. This season is different for the young hawks, though. We’ve seen them feasting on rabbits and mice!

  • Svengoolie Show Movie: “The Night Stalker”

    Svengoolie Show Movie: “The Night Stalker”

    Svengoolie Intro: “Calling all stations! Clear the air lanes! Clear all air lanes for the big broadcast!” “It’s bad for business” is what the local district attorney says when news reporter Carl Kolchak says a vampire is killing people in Las Vegas and the city’s leaders need to break out the stakes and mallets right…

  • Big Shoes Friday Blues Show with Uncle Ed (or Unka Led)

    Big Shoes Friday Blues Show with Uncle Ed (or Unka Led)

    Well, the big news, at least for me, is that Uncle Ed (Unka Led?) did a long version of the shout outs last night—and the first one was Jim the Shrink, which Big Mo had been announcing first for a good while. I about fell out of my chair. I thought after Big Mo retired,…

  • Practicing the Flicking Multiplex Juggling Trick and the Return of the Claw!

    Practicing the Flicking Multiplex Juggling Trick and the Return of the Claw!

    Sena got me a couple of brand-new juggling tee shirts, which meant that I had to come up with a couple of new tricks to cause brand new joint injuries! I learned from Logan at Juggling Gym that the word “multiplex” doesn’t just mean a movie theater with multiple screens. A multiplex throw is “where…
