U.S.S. Monitor

Lovely old (very old) photo of the Monitor taken sometime after its fight with the Merrimack/Virginia in Hampton Roads in 1862. Latest photo at my new book blog, Knoxville 1863, which is coming along slowly. Moving a bit faster is my other new blog 13th Mississippi Infantry Regiment, focused on the historical artifacts and new [...]

Rule 5: Alizee

Thank you, Miles Austin’s girlfriend

Whoever and wherever you are, you have my gratitude. I might not have any hits at all if it wasn’t your popularity with so many of my visitors. Not that I actually have anything for them to find out about you, but they come anyhow. Bless ‘em. And you, too, of course.

IEATAPETA

It’s the Eighth Annual International Eat A Tasty Animal for PETA Day. Hamburger, I expect, will be on the menu at the rancho where we seldom miss an opportunity to mock a pretentious person or organization. Especially an obnoxious one like PETA, which so richly deserves all the ridicule it gets.
Not that we have anything [...]

Rule 5

Let’s face it folks. It can’t all be cub scouts and world-famous barn owls around here. Elsewise my diminished hit count from the recent switch from MT to WP will stay diminished. So, borrowing a hint (and the pix) from CG Hill in Oklahoma (not to mention TFG in San Antonio), here’s Rule 5 at [...]

Russian spam

For some reason, most all of my comment spam caught by Akismet lately has been from Russia or at least been written in Russian. This is the least offensive one I’ve seen, though if I could read it I might not think so. Our onetime (long time ago, actually) Rooskie allies are coming up in [...]

The Motor City Maidens

This is as racy as we get around here, only because we’re trying to run a family blog, considering we have such diverse topics as Cub Scouts and Youth Basketball. But Instapundit says it never hurts the visitor total to throw a little sex into the mix. This lovely maiden (though I’d bet that “maiden” [...]

Need a site tech? Try Scott Chaffin

I first heard of Scott when Alan Sullivan would occasionally mention his gratitude for Scott’s expert help on this or that tech problem at Alan’s blog Fresh Bilge.  So, when I finally got the nerve to migrate TTS from obtuse Movable Type to relatively-easy Wordpress, I knew who to call.
Email, actually, via Scott’s blog The [...]

Miles Austin’s girlfriend

It’s funny. This is one of those Roberta Vasquez moments. I hardly know who Miles Austin is. Okay, he plays for the Dallas Cowboys. But his girlfriend? Beats me.  Yet, today alone, “Miles Austin girlfriend” has brought me 45 visitors.
I’m sure they leave disappointed. There is no picture of his girlfriend here. There is a [...]

Well here we are

Here we are at last, rare readers. Actually that was short, thanks to Scott Chaffin, computer tech extraordinaire. Nice looking place we have here, eh? I believe I will mess about a bit.
Like Mr. B., a very attentive child as a two-year-old when it came to adult conversation, who one day marched into the back [...]
