After working out I was watching a movie and an idea struck me... concerning, what I will put in quotes: "Sports". Note to billionaire investors: you can have this idea as long as I can be an announcer. https://www.twitch.tv/videos/1120697928

Amidst wasp burning, house centipedes -- and various bug talk, let's talk about the importance of giving yourself a "glorious day". https://www.twitch.tv/videos/1119710465

Now and then you find yourself on a chain of activities.. subconciously, perhaps, distracted from task to task. Well.. let's talk about that. https://www.twitch.tv/videos/1116710930

Some storms rolled through - so after talking about that a bit, lemme tell you a story of a storm back in the day. https://www.twitch.tv/videos/1115705996

The second half of the 'storytime' for this episode is about LASIK.. which I had done, some, 20 years ago. https://www.twitch.tv/videos/1114695253

Along with an initial variety of hellos and conversation, let's talk about the cutting edge, literally, of shaving https://www.twitch.tv/videos/1113684006

Let's recap the weekend -- and as we do so, discuss food trucks, open pit restaurants, and then letting our subconscious rework puzzles and problems when we stop trying to "force it" https://www.twitch.tv/videos/1112681635

We've talked about teeth before. However.. let's specifically talk, this time, about the horrors of wisdom teeth.

Sometimes we repeat ourselves. In writing. In conversation. In some cases that can be annoying and grating.. but perhaps there's a good side to it. Let's discuss it.. and armpit nipples. https://www.twitch.tv/videos/1106493379

First we do a bit of a weekend recap; then we get into some reading / information about how cigars are made. In this case, "5 things you should know" by way of an article in Primings magazine. https://www.twitch.tv/videos/1105482999

Bowling events and being too intense -> going to the gym with a bitter sneer.. and how a bit of kindness erased it. https://www.twitch.tv/videos/1100356778

The original topic of the evening has been switched to.. stories of unfortunate woe involving power tools. Warning... graphic content. https://www.twitch.tv/videos/1099312341

There is no intro. No ad. No talking otherwise -- this is just ambient sound recorded from my front porch. I faded a copy of it together so that it's closer to an hour long.  There are a few artifacts like me getting up to into my house to get a piece of meat for a kitty that had come to visit me and was giving me headbutts. Otherwise, I think you'll find that between the train and the cricke...

Alright; let's talk about something less .. stomach churning. In doing so, how about the "lie" of social media and interaction? https://www.twitch.tv/videos/1092141843

To have good coffee, you have to brew it -- and when you brew it, you gotta be careful. And... sometimes, eh, buy a new coffee pot. https://www.twitch.tv/videos/1091143668

The first half of the episode is a variety; but then in the second half I get a bit blistery talking about "things people don't *need*" https://www.twitch.tv/videos/1087129641
