BAXBLOG: Weather Report

http://stalinkiller.blogspot.com/2005/07/weather-report.html

Half full, half empty. Hey, my town has its own weather webpage. Who knew.or cared? We have one 12 month long season- summer-ish. The weather is always sunny and mild, minus a wave of scattered showers every four years or so. We have morning clouds which have always burned off by the time I rise and shine. When the daytime temperature drops below 60, it's front page news. Anyone who's lived here longer than a week can tell you this. Our local TV station KSBY. You'd expect a bit more for a guy who was wan...

BAXBLOG: It Pays to be Pleasant

http://stalinkiller.blogspot.com/2015/01/it-pays-to-be-pleasant.html

Half full, half empty. It Pays to be Pleasant. An important skein of homespun wisdom collected from my years at the shop is never give the volunteers a hard time. Nobody's getting paid at a library sale, nobody's getting paid at a thrift store, and they're endlessly hassled by legions of scroungers and bottom feeders. It's gotten bad enough at one of my regular stops they've posted a big NO HAGGLING sign at the register. When you buy a ton of stuff and you're not a jerk about it, there are perks. 09/13 -...

BAXBLOG: Independence Day, F%#+ Yeah!

http://stalinkiller.blogspot.com/2015/07/independence-day-f-yeah.html

Half full, half empty. Independence Day, F%# Yeah! There are, it seems to me, only two perfect 4th of July anthems, each antithetical to the other. This penultimate anthem of Middle America:. And this one, for Alice Miller America:. One is perfect for cookout sing alongs, the other is simply perfect. I saw you at the perfect place. It's gonna happen soon, but not today. So go to sleep, and make the change. I'll meet you here tomorrow. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom). 06/12 - 06/19 (1). 09/01 - 09/08 (...

BAXBLOG: true customer tales: The Grasshopper & the Spider

http://stalinkiller.blogspot.com/2015/03/true-customer-tales-grasshopper-spider.html

Half full, half empty. True customer tales: The Grasshopper and the Spider. So, earlier a mom and little girl come up, and the little girl is seriously. Reminding me of Fuss. And is transfixed by our spider and grasshopper. While I'm ringing the sale the girl's trying to get the spider to stick, which it just can't, and ends up pulling it off the base. Snaps Mom, reddening. "Right now! And don't touch the other one! I burst out laughing, because it was such a total. Everything is in the perspective.

BAXBLOG: More Than a Feeling

http://stalinkiller.blogspot.com/2015/07/more-than-feeling.html

Half full, half empty. More Than a Feeling. With his mama away meeting a baby in Boston, we're Batching it up this week. Which was cool with Fuss earlier when we got home- he ran up the stairs shouting "It's just us boys, WOOOO! Then demanded milk and graham crackers for dinner. But way less cool when bed time rolled around. After reading a few books and fending off dozens of wiley delaying tactics, I had him settling down. Dada, it feels weird without Mama here.".

BAXBLOG: Best of Netflix Watch Instantly: the Documentaries of Errol Morris

http://stalinkiller.blogspot.com/2011/04/best-of-netflix-watch-instantly.html

Half full, half empty. Best of Netflix Watch Instantly: the Documentaries of Errol Morris. If I put my nose to the cinematic grindstone and compiled an objective, clear eyed, unbiased list of my Top Ten Documentaries of All Time, Errol Morris would still have most of it to himself. And I just noticed that several of them are available on Netflix streaming- win! The story of a man, a dream, and the pet cemetery he birthed. No trailer I can find, but here's a great clip:. The Thin Blue Line. Anyone posting...

BAXBLOG: Father's Day, again

http://stalinkiller.blogspot.com/2015/06/fathers-day-again.html

Half full, half empty. Father's Day, again. I failed to note its approach until Facebook updates exploded my timeline like a creeping barrage at Passchendaele. To those with engaged fathers who made an effort, congratulations! To my fellow survivors of the less salutary version.keep your heads down. Happy Fathers Day is for you- a great father!

BAXBLOG: Fuss Drunk Love

http://stalinkiller.blogspot.com/2015/07/fuss-drunk-love.html

Half full, half empty. Eating lunch, Fuss is drinking his ginger ale out of an Ikea cup with his tongue. Fuss: Dada, mostly I like licking it up with my tongue, like a dog. Me: Why is that? Fuss: Because I'm the Fuss. You never know *what* I'm going to do next. Me: That's very true.

BAXBLOG: Dream Journal

http://stalinkiller.blogspot.com/2015/01/dream-journal.html

Half full, half empty. I've been listening to Marion Woodman's Dreams: Language of the Soul. In the car lately. I don't usually remember dreams and cite it as a likely influence on remembering one this morning. Nobody's ever going to believe that William Wegman was taking pictures of PUGS! Was my last thought before waking. I love that. So random and dreamish. I love that. So random and dreamish.
