"HE DID IT, HE DID IT, HE DID IT!"





Actually, you all did it; not me. Thanks to your patronage, my blog boasts an average of 1000 visitors/month for two months in a row now.

Congratulations!

Now, let me know what you'd like to see more of. Since the day I went public with Tuesdays With Muerte, I have only received three bits of feedback from viewers on what they would like me to blog about:

1. Something featuring them.
2. More human interest posts (my thoughts on real stuff going on in my life).
3. Less nasty internet pictures (except for the good ones).

I made the blog public because I am desperate for attention. I am trying to figure out how to connect with people. For example, I sense that some of my posts may be too long for people to read and want to respond. Also, I feel like I post too frequently for viewers to keep up. I'd love your feedback.

    Congrats, bro. I like more of you, less of internet. When you look back on your blog as an old man and show your kids, what stuff will they value?

    I think you also may get more comments if you space out the posts a bit more. Do you post multiple times a day sometimes plus every day including weekends?

    Wow, 1000 views a month, that's pretty phenomenal. I agree with Heather. More of you, less of internet. Look back at your posts and see which get the most comments, that may give you a hint of "what stuff sells."

    There are times when the mass of your posts is too overwhelming. I am used to the one post a day kind of thing. And I don't blog on weekends.

    didn't catch the robin hood quote.

Rummi-"CUB" vs. Rummi-"CUBE"

The "Rummikub" Pronunciation Debate Affirmative Constructive: "Cub" For years, I have been a firm advocate and defender of the pronunciation, Rummi-"CUB".  The game box I grew up with spelled it, Rummicub  on the box. However, other productions of the game have variant spellings: Rummykub , Rummy Kube , Rummy Tiles , etc.  Based solely on box spelling, the game's true pronunciation is open to interpretation. Therefore, Rummi"cub" is equally acceptable to any other given pronunciation. Negative  Constructive : "Cube" My opponents argue that since the game originated over seas, we ought to respect and maintain its original pronunciation. Affirmative Rebuttal: Americanization of the Term When the game was brought to America and given Americanized rules, its name was also Americanized. Pronunciation loyalists then counter my rebuttal with, "there are lots of adopted foreign words that have retained their original pron

The Secret Reason Why "Good Witch" Feels Emotionally Off

TL;DR It's the Botox. For the past 3 months, my wife, Stacia, and I have been watching  Good Witch  (via Netflix and Amazon Prime). Stacia adores winding down to "Hallmark-y shows." We can rely on Good Witch episodes to always resolve happily. The episodes are never too intense. The height of conflict revolves around things like someone's inability to locate the perfect spot to snap a romantic photo for a new tourism brochure. I consider my time watching these shows spouse bonding time , and emotional training. My favorite thing about watching feel-good shows with Stacia is getting to observe her facial reactions to the on-screen drama. When two people lean in for a long-anticipated kiss, Stacia tucks her knees into her chest and frowns with her forehead while lifting her chin and bottom lip. While I'm typically unable to suspend my disbelief, Stacia seems completely entranced by the various characters' emotions. Wishing I could join her in being swept aw

Who's Got The Funk?

I am an amateur guitarist, and I've got no funk. My musical skills seem to lacking that special something . Great musicians have it . Those fortunate enough to have gotten hold of  it , create timeless hits. While musicians without it  fade into oblivion. After spending hours searching through Blues history websites and 1970's band documentaries online, I discovered what that special something  is thank to a (70% Man, 30% fish) character from the BBC show "The Mighty Boosh" named Old Gregg. He identified that  thing  as  The Funk ! But what exactly is The Funk ? Here is some dialogue from the show to help explain its origin and purpose: Old Gregg: You're a musician, yeah? Howard: Yes I am. Old Gregg: Butchya ain't very good, are ya? Howard: I'm one of the best in town. Old Gregg: Come on, I read your reviews. Hmm? You know what your problem is? Howard: What? Old Gregg: Ya ain't got the funk. You're all rigid. Hmm? You're l
