Critterwatch 2026.

For those of you playing along at home, I also saw a catbird on Sunday.

Next spring, we should all start out with a bingo card or something.



 

Cactuses suck.

They’re the hornets of the plant kingdom, people.

Zero Stars.



 

Checking off the Wildlife Watchlist.

Spring is here, summer is coming.  These are the critters I’ve spotted so far:

  1. bluejays
  2. baby squirrels
  3. jumbo bumblebees
  4. red paper wasps (polistes carolina, not super fun)
  5. blackbirds
  6. bunnies
  7. a groundhog, and
  8. a cardinal couple.

UPDATE!!!!!  I just saw a Peregrine falcon chomping down in its prey!!!


 

Throwback Thursday: “New Ch-Ch-Ch-Cherry Coke” (1985)

This catchy jingle comes to you courtesy of the grand old year of 1985.  (Actually, it was the deftmahatma Youtube channel.)

Unlike the New Coke debacle that very same year, Cherry Coke caught on.  I had one just yesterday, despite my dentist’s sage counsel.  (It’s the acidity that’s bad for your teeth — not the sugar.)  I think we can all agree that Cherry Coke is super-god-damned good.

By the way, nobody can tell me that 80’s fashion isn’t due for a revival.



Nolans gonna Nol.

I made up another joke!

Have you heard about that island in the Pacific where they found a row of mysterious, giant stone statues of butts?

They’re calling it Keister Island.



I am amazing.  I really should have a cult following.



 

A star is borne.

This little cousin of The Roanoke Star sends me off to sleep at night.

Watership Nolan.

It’s Easter morning and a I just saw a bunny!

😀



 

Red paper wasps are *VANQUISHED.*

How ironic that their nemesis should prove to be a WRITER.

[Raises an eyebrow Bondly]



 

David and Go-LIE-ath.

Remember my post yesterday about David Duchovny’s 2028 presidential bid?  That was an April Fool’s Day joke.

I might be losing my touch — I think I fooled almost NOBODY this year.  Or maybe you people are just getting sharper in your old age.
