Pesky Gadabout: April 2009
http://gadaboutcork.blogspot.com/2009_04_01_archive.html
Saturday, April 4, 2009. Anchor “Retires” with Platinum Parachute. In articles about Moyer’s leaving, the LA Times reported neither the station nor Moyer would confirm the nature of his retirement—voluntary or don’t let the door hit you in the rear. Pesky has long held that the big money on-air people in TV have received over the years seems inordinately high for the work required, But the real reason for their high pay is the job insecurity, and the fact you can be canned because your boss screwed up or...

http://gadaboutcork.blogspot.com/2013/01/top-ten-crises-still-bugging-me-as-2013.html
Tuesday, January 1, 2013. Top Ten Crises Still Bugging Me as 2013 Begins. 10 Baffled why there hasn’t been a Constitutional amendment outlawing either the word “flammable” or “inflammable.”. 9 Stupefied how the Media can report the pregnancy of Kim Khardashian without including the phrases “affront to civilization,” “anti-Christ” or “no-talent publicity whore.”. 7 Worrying will the new tenant in the spare bedroom, Fiscal Cliff, ever pay his rent on time. 1 Rethinking my decision to turn down the gig as t...

Pesky Gadabout: Carpet Bombing for Fun and Profit
http://gadaboutcork.blogspot.com/2012/12/carpet-bombing-for-fun-and-profit.html
Friday, December 7, 2012. Carpet Bombing for Fun and Profit. The great Carpet Brouhaha of 2012 is over- pending my bride’s search later today for missing silverware and gewgaws. As usual, I've apparently made a big deal out of nothing. Of course, making a big deal out of nothing has provided me with a rather handsome living over the years as well as helping me become moderately reviled. Carpet Cleaners were here and gone in 90 minutes. Short story long? Apparently my bride found these fine folk at reduce...

http://gadaboutcork.blogspot.com/2013/02/airline-travel-during-dark-ages.html
Sunday, February 3, 2013. AIRLINE TRAVEL DURING THE DARK AGES. With increased air travel during the holiday season, many are winging long distances for the first time since last holiday season. It’s awful, but is it really worse? The YEAR 1997. The FLIGHT:. Los Angeles (LAX) to New York City (JFK). Picked up at home by Phil's Speedy Discount Airport Shuttle. Motto: "If we're more than fifteen minutes late, we wouldn't be the least bit surprised.". You land in New York. Pre-boarding begins for pre-boards ...

Pesky Gadabout: November 2008
http://gadaboutcork.blogspot.com/2008_11_01_archive.html
Tuesday, November 11, 2008. Old Fart Futility Update #1. ITEM 1 “ET THROWN PHONE”. We have new cell phones. They are as basic as one can buy unless you unearth the one the Gordon Gecko used in the 1987 movie Wall Street. It’s roughly the size of a canned ham, and all it did was make phone calls.) The problem today is all those New Phone Update Nazis who keep adding unnecessary features—like Frogger 3-D or Sasquatch Alert or downl. Oads of Lawrence of Arabia. For my 1-inch screen. 8221; algorithm to bail ...

The Calabasas Chronicle: May 2006
http://calabasaschronicle.blogspot.com/2006_05_01_archive.html
Friday, May 19, 2006. Da Vinci Flops HA HA HA (how mature we are). We're not really sure why, but this gives us great satisfaction. Something about overblown, overhyped, manufactured pablum falling on its self assured face makes us smile. In fact we think the real reason Mona is smiling is she knew all along this would happen. Plus, we will never forgive Tom Hanks for ruining another great book, The Bonfire of the Vanities,. Still fresh in our heads, some 16 years later. Links to this post. Simple templa...

http://calabasaschronicle.blogspot.com/2008/10/oreilly-goes-postal-on-barney.html
Monday, October 06, 2008. O'Reilly Goes Postal On Barney. Bill O'Reilly isn't at his most articulate here, "stop the BS, stop the crap! But oh how good does it feel to have someone challenge this criminal and lying sack of puke. Minute 2:00 is when the fun begins! Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom). If It Walks Like a Duck? Brown Lawn Sends Man to Jail. This Makes Me Weep. Now It All Makes Sense, Hef Likes Em Trashy. ACORN is a Scary Little Group. Can Hugh Hefner Just Die Already? This is Dangerous Ground.
