Mer's Whatnot...: July 2012
http://merswhatnot.blogspot.com/2012_07_01_archive.html
Mental and visual bric-a-brac for friends, family, and stumble-uponers. Monday, July 2, 2012. Conversations with Jimmy: Unreasonable Expectations. But true to our family's humor tradition, Jimmy camped it up with his whiny complaints and I made mild fun of his patheticness (he would have done the same for me had I been the sick one). Jimmy: (in a super whiny voice while desperately flapping the sun visor about) "The sun, it's so bright.". Jimmy: (in a sad, whiny voice) "Well you could at least try.".

Mer's Whatnot...: March 2012

Mental and visual bric-a-brac for friends, family, and stumble-uponers. Sunday, March 18, 2012. Conversations With Trent: Justin Bieber. Trent, without hesitation, responded "Elbow." Elbow, folks. The kid is 11 and his favorite band is Elbow. And he hates Justin Beiber. And after a minute he added Coldplay, U2, and Luna. I'd say Juls and Ron are doing a pretty good job raising those youngin's.

Mer's Whatnot...: Conversations With Jimmy: "That shit ain't right."

Mental and visual bric-a-brac for friends, family, and stumble-uponers. Monday, May 21, 2012. Conversations With Jimmy: "That shit ain't right.". Jimmy asked if he could use my netflix account to watch a movie on his new computer machine and of course I said yes. When I sat down in his puny wooden desk chair at his ancient desk to log on, the following conversation occurred. Mer: "This little chair is awful. How can you stand it? It's not at all ergonomic.". That shit ain't right.". People Tell Me Things.

Mental and visual bric-a-brac for friends, family, and stumble-uponers. Saturday, May 26, 2012. Why I Cried at Two Weddings and Other Musings on Marriage Equality and Being One of The Gays. More than a decade later it happened again on the other side of the country in MA. I was with my then partner, J-, and we were attending our first legal. Are you kidding me? The Yes folks went right for the guts, the emotional response, and they scared the shit out of the complacent conservative masses. The 18,000 sam...

Mer's Whatnot...: Conversations with Jimmy: The Dog Food Question

Mental and visual bric-a-brac for friends, family, and stumble-uponers. Friday, September 14, 2012. Conversations with Jimmy: The Dog Food Question. It's late on a Wednesday night and I'm sitting in my room futzing with my iPad when Jimmy walks in with a pensive look on his face and asks. Jimmy: "If you only had a bag of Cosmo's food to eat, would you live? Mer: "You mean that's all I had to eat? Jimmy: "Yeah. You could stay alive eating that, couldn't you? Mer: "Yes, I think so. For awhile.".

Mer's Whatnot...: October 2012
http://merswhatnot.blogspot.com/2012_10_01_archive.html
Mental and visual bric-a-brac for friends, family, and stumble-uponers. Wednesday, October 17, 2012. As many of you have heard via the facebook, within the past year there have been three shootings in front of my house, and two others very nearby. And that's not even including that one time when SWAT was camped out at the Walgreens a stones throw from my bungalow- I didn't hear the shooting that day, the day the man barricaded himself in a house somewhere near my home. Folks getting held up at gun point ...

Mer's Whatnot...: August 2011
http://merswhatnot.blogspot.com/2011_08_01_archive.html
Mental and visual bric-a-brac for friends, family, and stumble-uponers. Sunday, August 7, 2011. At Least I am Not Allergic to Bees. It's not the way one wants to wake up from an afternoon nap on one's boat. My subconscious must have processed the information first, someone yelling, "single-hander! Your bow-line is undone! 65279;. I cannot imagine being alone in the southern Ocean. Looking over the bow of Donna Clare at the mooring. Buoy from which the bow-line came free.
