KMAG is back!
Shortly around KMAG’s 17th anniversary, its ten-year home, a 2009 Mac Mini I bought mainly to host the stream and all the cool services Mac OS 10.6 Server used to have…crapped out. It only took me a week to ten … Continue reading
Honolulu Achieved!
Today was the fourth milestone via in-door bike! Given my intermittent illness of the fuckits, I’m amazed I completed this destination before year’s end given this leg being over 1300 miles. Complete it I did though. Mainly out of distraction … Continue reading
Eighteen years in one house!
This anniversary completely slipped my mind with all the other crap going on but three days late is better than either not at all or in several days. I often have to pinch myself because I didn’t grow up in … Continue reading
India’s Vikram lander loses contact
Saw the news via feeds and The Guardian, looks like India’s second attempt to land a probe on the Moon has failed. What a pisser! As much I am cautious about the country’s other ambitions, namely their saber-rattling with Pakistan over … Continue reading
The horrible Robert Mugabe is finally dead
Given this dictator’s murderous reputation, I’m surprised he died of old age, 95. Despite being dead, his inept, corrupt and crony-filled regime remains the shadow looming over the struggling democracy of South Africa. Originally hailed as a liberator when he … Continue reading
Inspirational socks!
Picked these up at Waterloo Records. The first pair had a unicorn, therefore I had to get them for my friend Rev. Kathy R, that’s her spirit animal. Now the other pair were for me. I’m not feeling pessimistic nor … Continue reading
RIP Terrence Dicks
If you followed Doctor Who before the reboot (I won’t say I always did, it was usually an on/off thing because the show sort of disappeared for a while), you may recognize this gentleman’s name in the credits. I knew he … Continue reading
Here’s my cat being cute to bring some levity
Isis is coming to grips with being an only child around the house still. No more Kuroneko to bully her and bite her on the butt whenever she wants to lie on the bed. This is my kitty doing her … Continue reading
Summer is officially over, put away your white pants
And so the Summer of 2019 comes to an official end with back-to-school, hunkering down for the calorie-induced holiday stretch Halloween candy, Thanksgiving dinner/leftovers and Christmas parties) and in Austin, the annual invasion of ACL Fest Assholes over two weekends. … Continue reading
New month, new art and update
The divorce is slowly progressing as Somara is moving her stuff out. Kuroneko was relocated last week, going to miss that little butterball. We haven’t figured out what’s going to be divided yet nor who gets to keep exactly what … Continue reading
Dental Work #5: touch-up cleaning
Progress on repairing my teeth is continuing. There was another round of cleaning to make sure there was progress. Well? Oh, yeah, things are improving everywhere but the back teeth which are a pain to brush and reach. If us … Continue reading

According to their Twitter feed, the guys behind this legendary show got started with their writing, rehearsing and eventual airing of the program that would influence comedy throughout the English-speaking world…SNL, The Kids in the Hall, SCTV, The Simpsons, The … Continue reading
One evil Koch brother dead, another to go
How the obits still brought up David Koch’s self-centered, bullshit “philanthropy” which is meaningless because his family has jeopardized the world for money, the one thing that couldn’t stop him from dying eventually. Besides, all these rich assholes donating to … Continue reading
Fry’s dog Seymour spotted!
It is unknown if he or his owner (someone related to Mr. Panucci) were singing “Walking on Sunshine” during their daily constitutional.
Had to fight a cold over the weekend
My recent lack of posts wasn’t sadness or anything negative I couldn’t control, just my health dropping out a tad warning me about having too much fun: The B-52’s 40th Anniversary show (more one day) and then the following night … Continue reading
