I’m grateful to Caedmon for bailing me out, this time around. There are times when the jokes just don’t seem to appear when I need them to. I asked Caedmon if he’d like to be a full-time writer for the[…]↓ Read the rest of this entry…
Why yes, I’ve been spending some time at Callahan’s Crosstime Saloon recently; why do you ask? This one goes out, with great affection, to Gabriel A., my favorite Aussie Clydesdale. Yes, he’s the one featured as a guest commentator from[…]↓ Read the rest of this entry…
