It’s been two whole months since I posted something on this blog. I’d like to say that I used that time to stimulate my creative mind….but mostly I just watched the old game show channel and drank Mountain Dew Baja Blast. For my first visit back to blogville, I will tell you about my trip … Continue reading The Long, Long Road To The Hall Of Fame
2025 was a pretty darn good year. Tremendous in fact! The fact that it ended with me suffering from the Annual Post-Christmas Cold (thanks sick people on the plane!) only slightly tempered my enthusiasm. So here are things I wrote and things I did. March: Hooray For Culver City! And other California locales. I had … Continue reading Wentyworld 2025: The Year That Was
(This article is not about the weather. But yes, it was very chilly.) I had two great reasons to wander through downtown Alliance this early evening. First, I visited the Carnegie Arts Center. It is truly one of the crown jewels of our fair city, and right now they’re displaying items from their 2025 Anniversary … Continue reading A Chilly Evening In Alliance, Nebraska
I did a deep search of this blog because I was absolutely convinced I had already posted this interview on Wentyworld. But, turns out I didn’t.

And quite a few that are neither unique nor memorable. But! I do have this one story…. Fall of 1995. SUNY Brockport … Continue reading Pizza Party With Adam Sandler
I’m back from vacation! It was a trip to Los Angeles that I would grade a B-minus. The weather was distinctly not Californian, but being a Nebraskan it was still 76% better than what we get this time of year. Also affecting my vacation report card: 4 out of 5 Uber drivers could not find … Continue reading Watching The Wheel (And Jeopardy)

Of course! -It is too hot to think.-My laptop came down with vapor lock.-I’ve been too busy planning my run for the presidency. I’m planning to run … Continue reading Random Blatherings
A few years ago on Facebook, some dear friends and I shared photo memories of a trip to New York City that happened in the Spring of 1998. It was my final year at SUNY Brockport, a year during which I had a quote-unquote “humor column” in the student newspaper. Which is fortunate, because I … Continue reading Wenty and Adam and Pat and Heather and Sally
I take great pride in my ability to have fun on vacations despite my long list of problems and catastrophes while traveling. For example! My sister Joey Bean and I went to L.A. In a fit of shenanigans, I started jumping on the hotel room bed…and promptly fell off and laded on my hand. I … Continue reading Vacation Tribulation
