Apologies

This post is running late.

It’s written, but the meme magic hasn’t been woven in, and it’s far too late to continue.  I ended up working on some unanticipated pressing issues (nothing bad, just stuff that had to be done) that ate up a few hours and started me off late.  I’ll finish the post tomorrow and respond to the previous comments then, too, as usual.  The good news?  You’ll have back-to-back Thursday and Friday posts.

Again, my apologies.

  1. Please don’t apologise, I love reading all of your posts, but I’m happy to read them when they are ready.

  2. No sweat! Sometime life gets in the way of living. I’ll wait,

  4. Go all in.

    Full refunds to everyone for all monies paid if they’re still not happy with your blog.

    It’s only fair.

    Double Bonus: Certificate good for free COVID-19 vaccination to the first ten most strident whiners.

  5. John – – We all understand how important smooth operation of your PEZ dispenser is to you.

    No need to apologize whenever PEZ maintenance issues prevent you from disgorging jocular propositions to the faithful…..

    1. Thank you!!! Really, I’ve tried to keep the schedule as a point of personal discipline. As Hemingway said: “There’s nothing to writing. All you do is sit down at a typewriter and open a vein.” With a deadline, I sweat blood, too.

  6. Take your time. Cut large tasks down to small ignorable parts.
    Got the ban hammer from the meme page for making one of Sobama as the black Lenin, Uncle Joe Joe Biden with corn rows or braids, an American flag with 50 corporate logos, and they banned the whole DNS.

    1. I am glad I took the time – the memes are better now. Normally it takes me 60-90 minutes to meme, and that’s after the writing and the edits.

  7. Apology: Accepted.

    But come on John, your ‘excuse game’ could use a little work. I’ve only read about this kind of stuff second-hand, so I’m not an authority, certainly not one you should listen too, but with the state of the world today? Spin the wheel and pick a reason. Global Warming? Sure. Taxes? Absolutely. Mysterious vaccine-shedding side-effects? It doesn’t get more factual than that! Chinese flooding? If that doesn’t affect the midwest I don’t know what does. Fake Presidents? Real Presidents? Embittered Presidents? All valid reasons for being late with a post. Aliens? Bigfoot? Hot sauce shortages? We’re all devastated by these things.

    If nothing else, explain that you were trying to advance the CWII clock to ‘one minute to midnight’ but WordPress wouldn’t let you. We’d all nod, curse, check our watches, and use our VPNs to look up tasteful yet economical bikini pics.

    Lack of sleep is hardly believable in 2021.

    1. Ha! If truth be told, had I finished up last night, I would have walked from the keyboard to the shower to the car to work. And I was already a wee bit tired to start the night.

      1. I saw that story! Wow! I smelled a rat, because everything, and I mean EVERYTHING that story had was primed to be propaganda. That might change Friday’s post, but probably not – a post about that takes hours to research and crunch to get the facts exactly right.
