Take That, Swifties!

My wife and I wanted to go to a local festival concert called the Ohana Festival. Actually, it was my Swiftie daughter who showed us the lineup, so “Foo Fighters on Me”. But after all the mayhem of the recent Swiftie dustup I had concerns. (Ticketmaster execs are in hiding in non-extradition countries; they are…

Car Wash Blues
So, we have determined that I am, in fact, the “Janitor of LarryLand”. BUT, my talents are not limited to simply janitorial services; No, I also am a cook, personal shopper, handyman and official car-washer as well. So, imagine my surprise when I got outside this morning to find my neighbor’s cars being washed professionally. …

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”.

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 Pillow Problem
I love those insurance commercials where a pretend doctor “Rick” helps young homeowners from becoming their parents, as it that is somehow preventable. These are always based on horrible cliches. 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…
