I don't get angry when I'm hungry so much as grumpy.

So, if:

hungry+angry=hangry

Does:

hungry+grumpy=humpy?

Because if so, I may need to rethink a few things.

This Is How To Improve Your Writing: 6 Expert Insights - Barking Up The Wrong Tree

How do you get better at writing? Here are six tips from the best in the field that can dramatically improve your skills...

Barking Up The Wrong Tree

I need a soundtrack for working on this book.

The protagonist in my first novel was basically me, so I used a local jazz group I love.

This dude is a developer at a big tech firm with a philosophy degree. He's also +/- 20 years my junior, so I'm at loose ends.

Any suggestions for something mellow, instrumental, maybe with a good repetitive bass line...but that won't drive my middle-age Deadhead brain to distraction?

More thoughts on context. And termites, apparently. - I like How You Think

It’s hard to admit this, but today’s topic was inspired by a work Piece I just wrote that focuses heavily on context. Now, it’s in the context of data ingestion...

Catching up on a channel I follow on YT and was forced to watch an add for Terminix. The tagline was "They eat house," and I was a bit taken aback.
I love it!
When great copy lands, it LANDS.

Especially when it's selling bug spray.

Watching The Repair Shop.

They just took in a vintage Wyvern fountain pen.

The pen expert said, "I'll have to address the cracked rubber sack and floppy lever" and I can't stop snickering.

I watch waaayyy too many British panel shows.

Time for a drop from the list of amazing band names:

* Manhole Smoke
* Unleash the Stink
* Terminal Sump
* A Coalition of Buffoons
* Basal Conglomerate

And, of course, a few names for that first epic double concept album:

* An envelope full of beard hair
* The time I got my finger stuck in a bowling ball
* the fractal nature of your mediocrity
* It’s like the higgs boson of food
* I’ve already sorted myself out, thanks
