History Of Games!

Games are things we humanoids have enjoyed doing since… well forever I guess. For all we know even the earliest pre-cave dwelling Neanderthals might have enjoyed rolling cleverly shaped dino-poop balls over a cliff at each other! Hah! I can just hear it now, “Auh, toocha merka doneckta conchoo, ug inka karaga lee, tookie tookie chaga tingkadoo… urka… urka… tongo… DANGA charkachoo!” Oh sorry let me translate that for you. “Hey Auh, looky who’s walking by down there, it’s UG and his twin brother LEE, hurry up and help me roll this dino-poop ball over the cliff… steady… steady… now… BINGO got em!” Thus ...

Stupigence!

It’s kind of funny sometimes when you are asked to describe something you normally take for granted. For instance, I was asked by a sort of swanky-high class-up-to-do lady about what my style of writing was… uhh… hmm… I’ll have to think about that one. Then again while having a slightly alcohol induced tranquil conversation with “Q” and “Brutus” at our secret vacation encampment, clandestinely hidden deep within the hills of Pennsylvania, “Q” brought up the subject of “THONGS”… no not the kind you wear on your feet! “Brutus” and I both looked at each other then instantly at “Q” to see if ...

Old… Snarp Style!

Realizing that next year will be my high school’s… umm… a lot of years reunion, caused me to consider that maybe I really am getting… well old… der! Don’t get me wrong, I still don’t know what I want to be when I grow up! This is very fortunate for you my loyal readers, after all if I ever figured it out would you want to read the crazed ramblings of a… a… GEEZER? No… no my friends, you’ve gotten so used to reading the crazed ramblings of a mentally challenged 12 year old stuck in a man’s body, I just can’t ...

Am I Confused?

While frequenting a local pub the other day, I noticed the bartender on duty that day was behaving in a somewhat playful energetic manner, and we’ll refer to her as “Fofanna”. Fofanna is a bouncy person anyways, but for OTHER reasons, heh-heh! On this day she was bouncing around all over the place behind the bar, as I said, in a somewhat playful energetic manner! So I finally said; “Fofanna you sure are full of piss and vinegar today!” Immediately, as you can imagine, thoughts of what I just said started bouncing around in my head like 222 little super balls in ...

I Shudder To Think!

"The nations of the world will have to unite, for the next war. The nations of the earth must someday make a common front against attack by people from other planets" General Douglas MacArthur October 8, 1955 In 1955 when it was discovered that introverts have more saliva than extroverts, the term U.F.O. stood for “Unidentified Flying Object”, today it stands for “Unleaded Fuel Only!” General MacArthur was thought to be a little eccentric, but for a man with his military background to make such a bold statement sent lightning bolts streaking through my deep, cavernous mind! Crashing into the walls of the caverns with ...

In The Nick Of Time!

Two blondes walk into a bar… ”OUCH”! Sorry I couldn’t resist! One of the greatest mysteries that men cannot solve is why, when they get drunk, someone creeps into their bedroom in the middle of the night, vomits on their clothes and pees in the closet! I’m gonna set a trap for that creep! Another great mystery is time… time has always fascinated me. For instance, what occurs once in a minute, twice in a moment, but not once in a hundred years? No not sex after marriage… the letter “m”! Okay let’s get serious… well… almost. What got me started on this whole time ...

May Day… May Day!

May is an odd month; at least this one has been so far. May brings us May Day, Cinco De Mayo, Armed Forces Day, Mothers Day, and Memorial Day. Of these five days of observance, or reasons to party, May Day has captured my attention the most this year. I mean “may day… may day… may day…” is used as an emergency code word internationally as a distress signal to alert others that a person is in grave and imminent danger and requires immediate assistance. Ever wonder why? Well scientifically May Day marks the end of the winter half of the year in the ...

Pigeon Poop Wisdom!

“Wise men talk because they have something to say; foolish men talk because they have to say something” - Plato Wisdom… The problem with wisdom is, we all want it, we all need it, but we don't it get until just AFTER we need it. So I thought I’d share some “Snarp Wisdom” with you to help you be somewhat prepared in the event that you are under the “Wretched Wisdom Attack”, and don’t know what to say. What is the “Wretched Wisdom Attack”? Ever have someone say to you, “A word for the wise…”, and then proceed to fill you in on what ...

Lick Your Elbow!

I found some interesting information about the bipedal humanoid species inhabiting this planet, (that would be us), so I thought I would share my findings on a one of the more intriguing subjects. For instance, the statistics on sanity state that one out of every four persons is suffering from some form of mental illness. That’s a very bold statement, and it would suggest that 1,704,225,000 of our fellow humanoid bipeds are suffering in this way! So how can we be sure that we are not the one out of four who are nuts? Well one technique to keep in check would be ...

Just A Thought!

Thinking is something we do about 70,000 times a day, (so we’re told), and thoughts travel at the rate of… well there seems to be a controversy over how fast our thoughts travel. Let’s investigate, shall we? The PHDuds, (that’s a PHD that can’t think outside the box); say nothing can travel faster than the speed of light. Then they go into great detail how the brain processes thought, making the assumption that thoughts are biologically based. The PHDudes, (that’s a PHD that CAN think outside the box… sometimes); say thoughts CAN travel faster than the speed of light. Then they go ...
