You know what’s crazy? I’ll tell you what’s crazy™ Moving day. I can taste the sweat. It’s dripping down my forehead. It’s a thick bead of salty, liquid pulling on my facial hair, tugging on my skin. I feel the river of sweat coagulating around my ear, taking a turn, like a mighty river and rolling […]
You know what’s crazy? I’ll tell you what’s crazy™ The half way house. I’ve been getting complaints from residents on Facebook. The allegations are numerous.

You know what’s crazy? I’ll tell you what’s crazy.™ Going to bed on a full stomach. I made the mistake of eating a huge pulled pork sandwich late last night.

You know what’s crazy? I’ll tell you what’s crazy.™Interminable Oration. I am staring at her mouth wondering if her jaw is held together with some space age polymer used by NASA.

You know what’s crazy? I’ll tell you what’s crazy™ The spider house. The woman is upset. She has every right to be upset. There are brown recluse spiders in her light fixture. Most are dead.

You know what’ s crazy? I’ll tell you what’s crazy™ The median. What the hell am I doing out here? It’s like an automotive deserted island. I’m a freak show in a grass cage, as hundreds of cars drive by, gawking, staring, wondering. “What the hell is that news man doing out there?” It’s 90 […]
You know what’s crazy? I’ll tell you what’s crazy.™ Angry Dwarfs. It’s like crazy birds or wacky weasels without the free app. Angry Dwarfs sounds like a drinking game at State College.

You know what’s crazy? I’ll tell you what’s crazy.™ 3-D My friend says to me, “I don’t know if it is worth the extra money.” I look at him and laugh. He is wearing his goofy 3D glasses and his Windsor knot scarf inside the theater. Oh it’s worth it Oliver Twist. It’s worth it. […]
