Edition 24, Someone remind me why I still do this?
Ahh, back to Mondays; this feels better. If I hurry and make this description short I might be able to squeeze it in before the clock strikes twelve. Then again, I know Tumblr is just going to gnaw on it for several hours anyhow, so what’s the point. I’ll just publish it by hand. By the way, I’ll be starting a radio show soon, so that’s exciting news. Think Dr. Demento, only… not as good.

Here’s the dealieyo
The Excuses on Friday experiment ends in miserable failure. I realized that it gets buried by Follow Fridays on Twitter and I just can’t deal with that. Back to Monday it is, but all is not lost.
I’m still going to post here on Mondays, Wednesdays, and Fridays. And for today I have an added bonus; I filled in for my wife on her radio show, which you can hear at http://www.radiofreekokomo.org at 10:00 am eastern, 7:00 pacific this morning. Hope some folks will listen and that it turns out decent. The show will replay at
12E/9P for those of you who are morning-challenged. 10 am on Tuesday 2/8. Brain fart, Sorry. -
I resisted the urge to steal this sign, but it sums up Edition 11. New edition Friday, although i might change it back again.

Edition 23, Kid tested, Mother (quite nearly) approved
Note to self: quit skirting deadlines. Other note to self: quit leaving the paper with the good ideas on it at work. Other than that, it’s more of the same, and thank goodness we’re at 23 editions, because keeping up the energy to get to 30 is a whole heck of a lot harder than I remembered it being. Then again, that might explain why I’ve never made it to 30 before. I think we’ll make it this time. I’ve got that glorious unpaid staff that I keep alluding to. I’ll have to introduce them all some time.

Well, here it is: the original video that got Some Contestants May Receive started way back in 2005. This was the original I-don’t-remember-how-many items, there’s another list of equal length, then there’s all the ones that have gotten embedded in Excuses. I’m thinking about doing another video here soon that’s a Best Of Some Contestants May Receive. Enjoy!

There’s evidently more than one way to keep drinks cold, but this was potentially one of the funnier. Special thanks to my friend Dustin for being an enterprising individual in this manner.

I have no idea what I was doing in this photo, tweet me your captions. New edition Friday, that is if I don’t blow up first.

Edition 22, And now for something completely the same
Just like the other 94, not counting the inevitable evolution that 13 years of slinging this slop together will do to a person. Now if you’ll excuse me, I need to go finish my Twinkie-Weiner sandwich.

Must shovel more coal in…
If you can believe this, I actually have photos. And will probably have more photos in the near future when someone sends some to me that were taken at a party the other night. Problem is I need to space things out some, otherwise I’ll run out of photos. I don’t get out that much honestly, so it’s reasonably unlikely that I will be able to generate so much content that I can post something every day.
