It’s Monday. We finally had a day that actually felt like Spring. On Saturday Mother Nature decided to not be such an incessant bitch and allowed the clouds to part and the temperature to rise.  I got a new book a few weeks ago that I was saving for a warm sunny day, so I grabbed it and headed outside into the sun. It was truly a nice day and I enjoyed every last minute of it.

Of course, Sunday was gloomy and extremely windy. Other than taking Abby out to play ball, I stayed indoors watching the Nascar race in Bristol, Tennessee, while the girlfriend was baking a lemon cake. The race was good, but the lemon cake was fantastic!

Easter is coming up so I have a fresh bag of malted Robin Eggs to dig into. Thankfully they cost far less than actual eggs. And as far as I know, there are not specific tariffs on them yet. Or wait, yes there are. Wait, now they’re off. Whoops, they’re back on again. Nope, they’re back off. Wait…

It’s Friday! It was my first week back after Covid and it went better than expected. I thought it was going to be difficult getting back into the work groove, but it really wasn’t an issue. Much easier than I expected.

Here in Illinois it looks like Spring but we’re still feeling the winter chill. Sure, all the trees, grass, and flowers are blooming but the temperatures have been in the 30s and 40s. Not exactly Spring weather. It needs to warm up, like immediately.

Okay, today I have another reader submitted amateur photo to share with everyone. This has become a regular thing every Friday as long as you guys continue to send in your photos of your girlfriends and wives. So enjoy the photo along with the usual double babes & jokes!

Keeper, my gf sent this to me recently. It sure made me hate being away as much as I am these days. I love your website and always look forward to the Friday amateur. Keep them coming for us lonely guys on the road. -Anonymous

It’s Thursday. How cool is this nostalgia-themed office! We recently refreshed my home office and it’s nowhere near as cool as the one featured today. This person is obviously an Apple fan and most definitely a gamer. There are a couple classic Macintosh computers, printers, and iPods along with many, many classic games. One of my all-time favorite games, Wizardry, can be seen displayed on the shelf located in the left of the photo. I purchased it with a full Apple //e system back in early 1983 and played that game for a ridiculous number of hours. Many other classics can be seen like Mechwarrior, Baldur’s Gate, Warcraft, Ultima, Dungeon Siege, Nightfall, Heavy Gear, and the list goes on! This has inspired me to dig out some of my vintage software for display in my own home office. So damn cool!
