My non-Top 10 List for 2011

2012-01-31T16:12:00.000-08:00

I was quite concerned when Stephen wrote that I didn’t have a 2011 Top Ten list because I didn’t like anything in 2011.I decided to prove him wrong, not by actually making a top ten list, but by proving 2011 was not any worse than any other year. I would compare a random day of 2001, with the same day in 2011. I keep a dairy, so it should be easy.First, I printed a condensed four page 2001

...and that should pretty much answer your question!For those who haven't read every single "Ask Bob" article written in the last ten years, I'll explain. A couple of years ago someone asked, "So what's the real Bob like?" So I spent the last four years giving you a chronicle of everything I did and thought. That way you could draw your own conclusions. Well now I'm done! Thanks for that

I have a confession to make.The last gut wrenching, LOL column was not an original piece. Right now Stephen Johnson is shouting, “I knew it…I KNEW IT!”For those who don’t know, Stephen is my old friend who writes the “Lunatic Ravings” column on this site. Stephen is a strange little man who does not work, and whose breath oddly smells of monkey penis.Anyways, back to me! I was too lazy to write

The ol’ lady was out of town for a week so I took care of Baby Gurl I and Baby Gurl II all by my lonesome. This is harder than it sounds ‘cause the kids are now seven and three years old and kids that age often participate in risky play.If they were seven and nine years old, you pretty much feed ‘em, take ‘em to school and make sure they don’t drink rat poison. Toddlers take a little more

Why Stephen can't read, but hates to admit it...

I finally got the archives for 2008 finished at MyStrangeStories.com. All the favorites from 2008 are at the 2008 Archives. This was important because each submitted story was posted on the homepage, which really slowed it down. I wanted to retain the genres so when you go to the archives, you can pick something like 2008 : Humor and get all the

Getting rid of unwanted aliens with spring cleaning!

2009-03-22T20:19:00.000-07:00

Now that all the snow is gone for the year, I enjoyed the entire weekend cleaning each (3) bedroom top to bottom; getting rid of old stuff and spraying for bugs. I hate spiders, nothin’ else on this planet…they’re not even officially insects. That’s creepy in it-self. To tell the truth, I’m not so sure they even belong on this planet. It’s been an exciting week here at TheWeirdcrap.com! Last Thursday we launched the new Strange Story format. AlarminglyStrangeStories.com is now http://www.MyStrangeStories.com . As the name suggests, we will no longer edit, post, or choose all the strange fiction that is posted. You wanna post a

A BLAST FROM THE PAST...

2008-04-13T20:22:00.000-07:00

It’s been a few weeks since I last wrote a column, I don’t know why. It seems after writing a weekly column for 9 years, I just seem to run out of gas sometimes. That’s the only excuse I have right now. For those wondering about the new interactive version of AlarminglyStrangeStories.com, it’s on the way…really.I’ve been spending this last few weeks trying to get back into shape, with exercise.

We interrupt our regularly scheduled program for this important message:I spent this weekend watching various news programs to see what’s up.Fox News Sunday with Chris Wallace: I watch this show sometimes to see how the republican spin machine is distorting the news. Chris seemed infatuated with Barack Obama’s pastor. Basically his pastor gave some speeches with

The Next Four years

The following is a dream I had. I’m quite sure it will come true because many of my dreams have come true in the past. The proof: One time at band camp, I had a dream that I was running out of toothpaste and the next morning I checked and sure enough I was dangerously low of running out! Although I didn’t actually run out, I feel my dream was a warning…much like the one I am about to share

COMING SOON?

Before I get to the nitty-gritty, someone, somewhere is probably wondering, “Why isn’t TheWeirdcrap.com never updated like it used to be?”Well, the reason is the old site is running on a design I made about nine years ago, and hasn’t changed much since. Currently, I’m working on a much better version and the site will slowly change one section at a time, starting with “

McCain a few months ago. And he complained about the same thing. I didn’t write back because because I didn’t think it was the real McCain, plus I’m lazy. Speaking of famous

Terror on the High Seas! A.k.a. The Bionic Woman does Dallas

2008-02-03T20:42:00.000-08:00

I kept promising a new episode of “The Bionic Woman”, but I haven’t bothered; now my back is against the wall since the writer’s strike is about to end! The new season is about to end, so I guess all we’ll get is one cliff-hanger, then its wait til' next year. All the more reason you should be enjoying the many years of fine fiction featured here at TheWeirdcrap.com!Here’s how the new episode

The Best of 2007!

2008-01-13T19:37:00.000-08:00

In this week’s column, Stephen Johnson listed my favorite album as “High School Musical 2” and my favorite concert a “Hanna Montana” concert. In response I must defend myself. Just for a little history, about 13 years ago I bought a “Shaggy” CD and the first “Atlantis Morrisette” CD and I liked them both. He’s given me shit about the “Woman from
