Hot Off The Press
Here at LarryLand, we’re into Breaking News. Or, at least, we want our news “Hot off the Press”. In case you were sleeping under a log in Ukraine, hiding from Russian Forces, and missed the Mayhem in Manhattan, a certain former president called “The Donald” has been “indicated”. So, that leaves us with the question…

LarryLand Meets DisneyLand
So our friends Matt and Heidi made the dubious decision to take their kids on an 8+ hour drive from Northern California to visit Disneyland for 3 days. It’s “Magical” as my daughter would say. Its exhausting is what I would say; we have experience. However, they’re wonderful people and we jumped at the chance…

Cleanup in Aisle 2
We’ve all heard this phrase in Star Trek from Dr. McCoy: “Dammit Jim, I’m a Doctor, not a …..” One thing is conspicuously absent from the list: He never said he wasn’t a maid. I would like to think that I am King of LarryLand. Closer to the truth – I am the janitor of…

The Brady Bunch
So, the new hit movie “80’s for Brady” is scoring big at the box office. I’ve not seen it, but my understanding is that a bunch of crazed octogenarians, led by Rita Moreno, join the NFL and sack Tom Brady. This can only mean one thing… Sequels.

The Pillow Problem

I have done EVERY. SINGLE. ONE. I remember one of the early ads where he is removing pillows from a couch that is absolutely covered…

Blanding In
I’m quite sure that in the employees’ lounge of my local supermarket there is a grainy photo of me, taken by one of the security cameras, with the a large statement in bold type: DO NOT TALK TO THIS MAN It would be completely justified.

How Ballet Lead Me To A Life of Crime
If you had asked me when I was young if I would ever be the president of a ballet company, much less in the cast of a Nutcracker, I’d have thought you were nuts. For the last 10 years, I’ve been in the cast of the Ballet Etudes Nutcracker. I do this simply because they…

Thirty-Six years in the Making
After 36 years, we finally get to spend Thanksgiving with you in Vermont. We may never be the same – at the very least we’ll probably never lose the approximately 1,000 pounds we gained feasting. Thanksgiving is a time of tradition, regardless the coast you are on. We visited from California, 36 years in the…

Getting it Wright
In this morning’s papers, there was a quote that Orville and Wilbur Wright proved in 1903 that “you could make a heavier-than-air craft that would take off and fly and not fall down, but it didn’t mean you could fly from Los Angeles to London right away”. That’s true – you still had to clear…
