Naming Rights BFG’s

When I was growing up in South Dakota, I was a huge fan of the Gladiatorial Games. Of course I had my favorite team the San Antonio Savages, and I had my favorite Gladiators, but most of them ended up dying ignominious deaths.

Brownie Point BFG’s

What has been going on this week? For me, not much except an absolute homicidal maniac strapping me to a chair, gagging me, shooting me with a needle full of drugs, leaving half my face numb, grinding my teeth down with a huge drill, covering my ears so I couldn't hear the torture, then sending … Continue reading Brownie Point BFG’s

Kohl’s Cash is the Devil

There has been a lot of talk about money in the news lately. At least I think so, because I don't really have the news on TV, so everything I get is from Youtube, Facebook, Twitter, Wikipedia, and Ben's Bitter Blog. I guess BitterCoin is a thing making headlines for all the money it seems … Continue reading Kohl’s Cash is the Devil

Loss of Interest

I remember when I was a kid and my dad helped me sign up for my first checking account. After doing my favorite thing ever, looking for a job, and going through dozens of job applications, I finally got my dream job of flattening dough at Little Caesar's Pizza.
