I have just added an article that was a speech I delivered for Toastmasters. The speech is called: “The Black Dog Shall Have His Day,” and is memoir-ish and the kind of thing I like to blog about. It’s about an aspect of my emotional intelligence that was, heretofore, only privy to my classmates from . . . → Read More: The Black Dog Shall Have His Day

This is a notice that my interactive web site, w8monitr.com, will no longer be available at that address. I’m pulling it down for re-tooling. However, I have also had a series of articles there that discuss my weight loss, nutrition, and healthy lifestyle. Those I want to persist, and they’ll be available here at MickeyHadick.com . . . → Read More: W8 Monitr is dead — Long Live W8 Loss In light of the recent “Beer Summit” I told a story from my past that resulted in a similar settling of differences over beer. This one is posted to my articles section, and is itself called “Beer Heals All Wounds.” It’s about me, the cherry tree I climbed as a child, and a dispute with . . . → Read More: Beer Heals All Wounds A simple game of bean bag toss takes on a very different tone when you call it “Corn Hole”, depending on where you live. This tournament took place in Ohio, and we knew exactly what was meant. Our friends in Wisconsin, when we offer to play corn hole with them, raise an eyebrow. . . . → Read More: A Corn Hole Tournament I’m sure I’ll have an interesting blog entry about this subject in the future, but, for now, just know that my son is trying to sell his Wii, and it may not go very well.

For the most part, I have no idea who is on the ballot, so I couldn’t tell you much about the vote beyond the big ones, President and Congress. The names for the local election are all a blur, . . . → Read More: Vote For Me Yesterday, while working in the yard, I had an incident that demonstrates my own fault and folly with immaturity, and my relationship with my wife. She had done some pruning in one of her gardens, and loaded the refuse into a laundry basket. The laundry basket, overflowing with dead vegetation, was left at the side . . . → Read More: Dog Urine as a Repellant One of my all time favorite phrases is “A Lick and a Promise“, as in I’m going to give the floor a lick and a promise. This usage refers to quickly wiping up the floor, but having the intention of cleaning that same floor more thoroughly later on. But I am so turned on by . . . → Read More: A Lick and a Promise I have just added a new article: Me TV. It’s a memoir-ish account of the television shows I watched in my youth, and is really a testament to the great wasteland that is my mind. If I had spent half the time I spent watching TV just walking around, I might have never had a . . . → Read More: Me and TV |
