Now we are twenty-seven
I sat down this week with the intent of banging out another silly, slightly humorous article that dealt with a small part of our collective pop culture memories for your enjoyment. However, the moment I sat down and began writing, that article never materialized. As soon as I began typing, I wrote the following [three [...]

New Rules for the holidays (with apologies to Bill Maher)
-If your kids are taller than you, think about putting something else on your Christmas Card.
-It is okay to talk politics [...]
Save some room! Scott C’s serving up a new bowl of ‘small potatoes’!
Once again it’s time to clear out my brain of the smaller items in it; the little things I think up, of and about and which, for whatever reasons, didn’t pan out into a full length column.
It’s time for some healthy ‘small potatoes’ and here we go!
Sandy Clause
In South Florida we don’t dream of the proverbial White Christmas, because, quite frankly, all we get is a beige Christmas, and the semi-nude French Canadians that accompany it, and by now we are used to it.Garbage trucks dump slush at parks for children to play with, but really it’s not the same.

Year End Special
All right, this is the deal: Next week’s column is the last HTMD of the year. I want you to tell me something you have learned this year.
Tis the Season
Unions are one of those things I’ve never really decided if I’m for or against. On one hand, I don’t blame people for banding together to strong-arm The Man into giving them a fair wage. I worked at a non-Union supermarket for a lot of years. There were people in that supermarket [...]
The Yeti Rants: What do you mean Ruldoph is on the No-Fly list?
Ah. It’s the holiday time of year. For those like me, travel means getting in my car Christmas morning and driving fifteen or twenty minutes over to Mom’s house for gifts and turkey. However, for a lot of other people in the US it means hopping onto a plane to visit family, [...]
Paxil on Earth, good will to mixtapes
“If seasonal, holiday depression has a soundtrack, this is it.â€Â
- Mike Nelson (paraphrased), “Mystery Science Theater 3000â€Â
If you’re like me, you’re probably starting to get tired of Christmas music being played everywhere you turn. Don’t get me wrong, I love Christmas music; I listen to it throughout the year. But honestly, there comes a point [...]
Hodgepodgeatorium - Amendments
In the weeks leading up to his death, Stanley Tookie Williams was a hot topic for debate. I listened to many people explain the reasons why he should die. I even watched Fox and Friends, which I always find entertaining. Aside from his conviction for murder, a frequent attack on his character [...]
Thoughts From The Ether
Hullo again everyone welcome back to another edition of Thoughts From the Ether. I’ve had a really long week, with the new job and all. So basically I’m exhausted, but that’s ok, it just comes with the territory I suppose. Hope you week has gone well, better than mine anyway.
