Moments In Being Less Fat And Diabetic in Bring Some Dominoes

As the 2025-2026 college football season winds down, it would appear that this season's college football playoff will be out of reach for most schools in the country. My alma mater will be one ...

Valor Earned in Bring Some Dominoes
Today is Veteran's Day. As far as Dad is concerned, it's just another day on the calendar. He was never the type to hype up his military service, not only in retirement, but even when he was a...
Still Sick, But Not Begging in Bring Some Dominoes

Still Battling in Bring Some Dominoes
It is rare that I get sick. Sometimes, I truly believe that I might be made of iron. If I'm guessing, it's been just over a year since I experienced even the slightest tinge of a cold. I say...
The Fat Remains in My Paper Chase
Even though Gurney is long gone, Manteca continues to come by our little corner of the office. Now, I'm wondering what her deal is. At first, the thought was that she would only come by to chi...
Get The Fuck Out Already in My Paper Chase
I couldn't have been any more ecstatic than I was on Friday when Gurney's last day in the office had come and gone. I didn't care what his day was like or how everything played out for him in t...
