The Dancing Man

It’s a different kind of day here in The Curmudgeon Offices, as, for a change, we are reporting on a happy story. That’s instead of my normal negativity and cynical observations and thinly veiled sexual references. Today, we are celebrating The Dancing Man. First we walked the walk, then talked the talk, and now we [...]

Facebook Felon Runs Criminal Empire From Prison

Photo by pavelm on flickr. Adapted by Christopher Reilly Here in the open offices of The Curmudgeon, employees are free to go and come at their convenience, though I’m sure they feel incarcerated due to my strict adherence to deadlines.

Twitter Tweets Give “All Clear” To Burglars

Here in the not-so-crusty offices of The Curmudgeon, I have given the order to the staff to cease their tweets, at least any tweets that relate to this office. Paranoid, you say?

The one about the “Church Sign” debate on whether or not dogs went to heaven, to whether or [...]

In Search of the Elusive Female Whale Tail

Here in the oceanic eco-friendly but not all wet Curmudgeon offices – currently located in the Pacific Northwest with offices over-looking Puget Sound – we have seen our share of spectacular whale tails. Both the beautiful Orca tail, rising above the water with a playful but dangerous slap back onto the water, but also the [...]

Nerdy Girls Steal Hearts and Show Smarts

Here in the Curmudgeon Offices, we are intelligent but not eggheaded. That doesn’t mean we aren’t impressed by eggheads, whether hard-boiled, poached, scrambled, or fried. And so it is that I admire the Nerd Girls. Both the real ones and the representative ones – like the one in the picture above – who is probably [...]
