And we still haven’t gotten any flappers yet.

I want flappers, dammit.

THIS GILDED AGE.

More evidence that Slim Jims are a superfood — the box doubles as a handy pen holder.

I feel frikkin’ GROSS.

Here’s the thing about a healthy diet — you avoid greasy foods.

But then when you DO treat yourself to a precious cheeseburger, you feel like you just drank an oil-slick milkshake with a chaser of cooking spray.

Update — ET TU, CHEESEBURGER?!



I had a haiku included on the Dead Letter Radio podcast!

I’m so happy to have a haiku of mine featured today on Episode 47 the Dead Letter Radio podcast.  (This is a short, special episode dedicated to haiku; it features examples of the short form from more than 30 writers.)

Mine is an untitled haiku about a bleak night this past February; you can hear it at the 9:08 mark right here.

Thanks again to host Taize Jones!



When your Love loves puns.

I’ve finally met a woman whose puns are as every bit as bad as mine are. Now I want to run away with her to Maine.

I want to make her my Maine Squeeze.

Or my sole mate.



It’s 2/22/2022.

If you know me at all, then you know I have to post a picture of Harvey Dent (“Two-Face”) on my blog and social media.

Cover to “Batman: Two-Face,” Brian Stelfreeze, 1995.  DC Comics.

“Quiet White Dog Short Poem,” by Eric Robert Nolan

A tottering nocturnal poppy,
its tail is a plume that moves between tombstones —
as white as them,
as white as the moon ,
and as noiseless as either,
the night’s silent, snowy, swaying bloom —
quiet white dog in a mountain graveyard.

I’m a little late to the party on the whole “Gazpacho Police” thing …

… but dear god is it funny.

How the #$@% does anyone confuse “Gestapo” with “gazpacho?!”

Milky Way Haiku

Soft sleeve spilling stars —
a pearl-colored universe
pours ivory sky.
