Evil Bossman lost his company!
Remember Evil Bossman? He was this crook who felt it was okay to only pay his employees whenever the hell he felt like it. Which wasn’t often. During the time that Mike was working for him…

I REALLY need to get new glasses
Yeah, but I keep putting it off. No particular reason for it. I’m just lazy. Probably, by the time I get it done, christmas cards will have long been sent, the Red Sox will have reported f…

Beer, beer, beer, beer…
This past weekend was an amazing beer weekend for us. Beer is loaded with calories, and maybe we need to find a good fat burner to take it all off! Saturday night was the first annual New Hampshire…

Made it through another Halloween
Amazingly, the greedy, overgrown, costume-less teen thugs did NOT start knocking hours too early. We managed to escape before anyone showed up, we left the house around 4PM. As I said before, our pl…
