Books are Over Praised,
Common Sense is Vanishing,
Humankind Dissolves.

“Things will be tighter.”
“New hires are Seasonal.”
“…last bookstore standing…”

The train track is not
the same thing as a crosswalk.
Stop biking on it!

My stupid arm hurts
from repetitive lifting
at my awful job!

Blue lobster missing
Either the fishies ate him,
or he has escaped.

Blah blah, hell blah blah,
Howl gargle blah God blah,
Send donations now!

It’s that time of the year again. Time to nominate your favorite shows for the Podcast Awards. In the past, I’ve regarded these awards as a waste of time. But I’ve caved. It’s either due to social media peer pressure, or I’m just getting soft in my old age. Below is my list of nominees. I don’t listen to shows that properly fit into all awards categories. But I didn’t want to just leave those categories blank, so I put in the names of shows that I felt could at least sorta fit those categories. Furthermore, I subscribe to a lot of podcasts. There’s no way I could nominate all of them. So, don’t feel bad if your show doesn’t show up on the list.

Temp still going up
Meds don’t seem to help any
I hate being sick

How sad; I cannot
Use the Blackberry I claim
To have invented.
