"Ice, Ice, Maybe"
I am the least creative person I know. When I think I know a topic, I jump into my favorite tire track or rut, and I'm off to the races. I'm sure to wear blinders, too, so that nothing and no one can persuade me to the contrary. Far be it from me to seek input or to consult anyone more experienced than I. No, no, no! It is my way or the highway, baby. Put the bit between my teeth and ride me to the finish line.

Edgy Disdain
Day 7/366 days of writing and publishing articles in 2024. A few days ago, I found myself immersed in the creation of a background for a painting that I plan to exhibit in an upcoming show at a wine shop. I had no idea where I would end up while I was working on the background. While I had been painting beautiful pieces inspired by wines I deeply appreciate, an unconventional idea struck me - why not create a piece for a wine I despise? It was during a session of listening to a funky bassline that the concept of "funk" took on a new meaning.

Fridge Tetris
Today, I have played my least liked game, one which I call "Fridge Tetris". Currently, I have only one fridge. Previously, before one broke and some well-needed kitchen renovations were started, I had two.

Lingo
Nineteen years ago, I secured an audition for the Gameshow Network’s family-friendly program “Lingo.” As the game was played by teams of two, the PA with whom I spoke instructed me to procure a partner. Having been in LA all of a year, I could hold hands with every member of my social circle at the same time. What’s more, the audition was held on a weekday, during regular business hours, making finding a partner who wasn’t a showbiz aspirant that much harder.

A Very Honest Date. Top Story - December 2023.
The waitress was very fat and I did not like her hair, but she had a good attitude as she guided me to my seat. The restaurant was not full on a Friday, so I guessed that the concert next door was still on and that it would fill up with people who had terrible taste in music later (the group playing truly sucked). I knew that my name was on the reservation list, but I still had a twenty ready in case she gave me a hassle.

To The Person I Accidentally Got Drunk Last Christmas.. Content Warning.
It wasn't me, it was the Christmas Cake! It told me to pour the whole bottle of sherry into it! Or, did it say 1/4? I can't remember!

Apparently Our Things Need to be Polite Now
Dear Proctor & Gamble: I am sure you have read the most recent news stories detailing the importance of manners and politeness in our things. According to one well respected technology company (an oxymoron I know), the most requested attribute in any future ‘smart’ product is politeness. It seems that you have fallen a bit behind the times in both the ‘smart’ and polite categories with one of my favorite products, Charmin Ultra Soft premium toilet paper. I have yet to see a smart version hit store shelves but I am certain the brainiacs in P&G R&D have been working on it. I am writing this letter to give you my view from the consumer perspective (real VOC!) of what I would like to see in this innovative new offering.

No, My House is NOT for Sale!
*Phone rings.* Hello? You want to buy my house? I love my house. I'm glad you like it too. It's getting nicer all the time with the work my husband does on it whenever we've got the money for supplies.

Fake News Headline Challenge
When it comes to fake news headlines, The Onion remains the undisputed heavyweight champion. Of course I am referring to The Onion in its heyday, back when it still had a hard copy print edition that actually could be delivered to your door or purchased from newstands or paperboxes in large cities around the country (mostly the northeast). Yes, that is how old I am. What remains of The Onion, theonion.com is mostly a sad reminder of those halcyon days of yore. They still sell merchandise featuring some of the classics, but the headlines and stories they crank out today are a far cry from the brilliant, biting, satire and wit of their early to middle years. Of course, it could just be I am too old now to appreciate the humor. In any case, selecting the best of them is really an impossible task. There are just too many to choose from. However, for purposes of this challenge, which is to come up with the best The Onion style fake news headline, I am going to list three of my all time favorites, starting with my absolute favorite first.
