RUDOLPH, FROSTY AND THE BLIZZARD
MONDAY, DECEMBER 21, 2009 RUDOLPH, FROSTY AND THE BLIZZARD This weekend we got socked with a nasty blizzard here on Long Island, over two feet of snow – drifts over six feet. Troublesome to many who may have been planning on utilizing this final weekend before Christmas to finish all…
BONERISMS
SUNDAY, DECEMBER 13, 2009 BONERISMS I am rarely inspired. I’m often insipid. I enjoy the blog “Out of Context: pieces of a life” by one of our frequent comment friends Nothing Profound. His aphorisms are really thought provoking, and I’ve been thinking after his last couple of posts, that it…
KNICK KNACKS
SATURDAY, DECEMBER 12, 2009 KNICK KNACKS Here’s a story with a moral. (Not really) Last night, Chrissy inexplicably decided to toss a milk bone at my head. It bounced off my cranium and landed in the space between the sofa and love seat where we keep some sort of cart…
GRIMACE
FRIDAY, DECEMBER 11, 2009 GRIMACE ANOTHER BONEHEAD BACKSTORY! There was a time, long, long ago, before I became the diversified multi-tasking Bonehead that I am today that I lived a simple existence, toiling away on the front lines as a manager of men. Well, men, women, and primarily pimply faced…
HOLIDAY LIGHTS
TUESDAY, DECEMBER 8, 2009 HOLIDAY LIGHTS I’ve never been a big fan of Christmas decorations, outdoor lights, big inflatables on the lawn and all that shit that people think make the Holiday season just a little bit more merry. I’m merry all fucking year – I don’t need any twinkling…
ESCAPE
SUNDAY, DECEMBER 6, 2009 ESCAPE You cannot truly escape, not legally anyway. My wife and I took ourselves off to Florida for a few days of leisure and libations. We actually stayed in Fort Lauderdale at The Atlantic – right on the beach – very nice hotel. Spent some time…
OFF THE GRID
TUESDAY, DECEMBER 1, 2009 OFF THE GRID In true Bonehead fashion – we’re jetting off to Miami for a few days. Oh, I guess we can justify it as my wife’s birthday gift, but it really still doesn’t make too much sense considering these difficult economic times. Justify it further…
ICE CREAM
MONDAY, NOVEMBER 30, 2009 ICE CREAM Bonehead's trusty laptop was zapped with the dreaded rogue Anti-virus malware this past Saturday. That really sucked - but I seem to have destroyed, or at least delayed the culprit long enough to bore you with yet... ANOTHER BONEHEAD BACKSTORY! Let’s take a walk…
THANKFUL
THURSDAY, NOVEMBER 26, 2009 THANKFUL Today is the day we all eat turkey, stuffing, pass the gravy boat and reflect on those things that we are thankful for. Peace Economic Stability Jon and Kate Efficient health care Ok, the past year has basically sucked, and there’s not a whole hell of…
NEW RELEASE TUESDAY – OLD NEWS
TUESDAY, NOVEMBER 24, 2009 NEW RELEASE TUESDAY - OLD NEWS As a prelude to my Black Friday extraveganza - I just thought I'd point out something you may not have noticed. Today - two TV show contestants released their debut albums, just in time for the holiday shopping season, Adam…
THE AVN ADULT FILM AWARDS
MONDAY, NOVEMBER 23, 2009 THE AVN ADULT FILM AWARDS Another Bonehead Backstory. There’s really no rhyme or reason to the order of the Bonehead Back-story theme. There is no timeline, because time doesn’t actually exist…and life is simply a series of events that are conveniently placed in the order of…
TRICK OR TREAT?
SATURDAY, OCTOBER 31, 2009 TRICK OR TREAT? C’mon – you know already I’m no treat. It’s not too much of a trick either. You see I’ve never been the biggest fan of Halloween. All sorts of annoying little strangers knocking on the door or ringing the bell all damn day…
THE DODGE CORONET STATION WAGON – Part Two
WEDNESDAY, NOVEMBER 18, 2009 THE DODGE CORONET STATION WAGON – Part Two I hate directions – never read them. But I’m hoping you’ll read this – if you haven’t read Part One yet – please click here, then come back for more! ANOTHER BONEHEAD BACKSTORY! It was a Sunday morning,…
BONEHEAD BACKSTORY
TUESDAY, NOVEMBER 17, 2009 BONEHEAD BACKSTORY Young Junior Miss Giddy once told me that she wished she had more stories. Asking her what she meant – she said that she wanted to have some boneheaded tales to tell everyone. Over and over again. Sure, there was a little sarcasm there.…
PANDEMIC HAMSTERS
TUESDAY, NOVEMBER 10, 2009 PANDEMIC HAMSTERS Injustice? Or our own damn fault? Have you been reading about the theories surrounding the swine flu pandemic in the Ukraine? There are many who believe that what’s going on there is not actually the H1N1 / Swine Flu, its bio-terrorism resulting in a…
FRANK
SUNDAY, NOVEMBER 8, 2009 FRANK My recent posts have mentioned my displeasure with Halloween and lament about being so busy even though we’re unemployed. Bitch, bitch, bitch.Got me to thinking that today would have been a wonderful day to make a “Frank” day.It didn’t happen, but it was a nice…
HATERS
THURSDAY, NOVEMBER 5, 2009 HATERS Quick rant here.OK – I know – I’m never quick, deal with it.How has social media affected the way we enjoy those too rare moments in life when you get to grab some happiness? Here’s a personal bonehead observation…I’m a lifelong Yankee fan, since I…
BEING UNEMPLOYED IS HARD WORK
WEDNESDAY, NOVEMBER 4, 2009 BEING UNEMPLOYED IS HARD WORK I profess this forum to be a clearing house for random thoughts, rants, ideas and general stupidity. The aggressive tossing is simply reflective of an unyielding effort to be honest to whatever crosses my mind without concern over political correctness. That’s…
A BETTER VANISHED TIME?
SATURDAY, OCTOBER 24, 2009 A BETTER VANISHED TIME? Second in an occasional series…One of the nice things about social media sites like facebook is the opportunity it presents you to reconnect with family, friends and co-workers of times gone past. Out of that for us last night came a gathering…
LOSER
MONDAY, OCTOBER 19, 2009 LOSER So the other night, Chrissy and I take my sister out for a belated birthday burger and beer. Lavish spenders that we are, we ask along her BFF since she was a kid, Tricia. This always proves to be a good time, as we all…
