There was a Katy Perry song that I used to play when I was doing radio part time called Hot N Cold. I often wonder if she spent time at my workplace and found the inspiration for that song here! It's insane! Our tech room is a rectangle. At both ends of the tech room … Continue reading Hot Or Cold

“Thank You, Mr. Policeman!”
Every once in a while, something will happen that prompts me to reach out and give props to someone. One time I called the manager at my local Tim Horton's to tell them how one of their staff was always so pleasant at the window. I felt that her superiors needed to know she made … Continue reading “Thank You, Mr. Policeman!”
My Heart Aches
Andy Marlette 2017 Just shy of 6 months ago, a school shooting happened 45 miles from my home in Oxford, Michigan. It happened at the high school. 4 students were killed and 7 were injured. 10 days ago, there was a mass shooting in Buffalo, NY at the Tops Supermarket that took the lives of … Continue reading My Heart Aches
“Finding a good way to spend it…”
My Facebook feed has been full of pictures of the "last day of school." Many of those photos are of high school seniors who are celebrating their FINAL "last" day of school, while others are of students in kindergarten through 11th grade who are just excited for summer break! The theme song to the cartoon … Continue reading “Finding a good way to spend it…”
Brief Thoughts on The Shadow
It has been a VERY long time since I read an entire book in less than 24 hours. That is exactly what I did with James Patterson's The Shadow. I had only finished the first chapter or two when I wrote my blog yesterday. Once I picked it back up, I couldn't put it down. … Continue reading Brief Thoughts on The Shadow
The Shadow Knows!
Time to read is very rare in my life. My stack of books to read seems to always be growing. Every once in a while, I get a few moments to crack open a book and read, but those moments seem to be few and far between. This week, I started reading a book by … Continue reading The Shadow Knows!
TV Show Draft – Get Smart
It's time for my next pick in the Hanspostcard TV Show Draft. My next pick is sort of a guilty pleasure. So many of the gags are ones you see coming a mile away, but they still crack me up. It is another one of those shows that was loaded with great guest stars and … Continue reading TV Show Draft – Get Smart
Word of the Day – Kibitz
Normally, I don't react to word prompts, however, today's word is one that immediately made me laugh. I began following EM Kingston's blog recently and her word of the day is "kibitz." The word is Yiddish and which can mean "make unwanted comments (as a spectator at a card game)," or something more general like … Continue reading Word of the Day – Kibitz
Celebrating 52
Today is the 13th anniversary of my 39th birthday. Jack Benny said he was 39 for years and got away with it. For some reason, today I realized just how silly that is. I will certainly continue to lie about my being 39, as a homage to Jack, but I know I'm not fooling anyone. … Continue reading Celebrating 52
Thanks, Annie Lennox
This song was a bit appropriate yesterday. We have a shower with sliding glass doors. If you have them, you know what a pain they are to keep clean! We've used Scrubbing Bubbles, Ajax, Magic Erasers, and just about every known cleaner to get the soap scum off them, but nothing worked. Sam said that … Continue reading Thanks, Annie Lennox
