I have made it no secret that I love to read the "educational" portion of the newspaper. I am referring, of course, to the comics!

You can read about that here: https://nostalgicitalian.com/2019/06/01/the-comics/ … Continue reading Thanks, Kevin!
Hello Darkness, My Old Friend
This past weekend was the end of Daylight Saving Time. It is hard enough for people on a normal schedule to adjust to this twice a year, but as a midnight person it makes it very difficult!

Halloween Recap
Halloween 2022 is now behind us. The day started with me and the kids getting our flu shots. I, of course, waited until the last possible minute to get mine for work.
