Frankenberry's Attic

Been watching “One Piece” this week, the live action version of the anime swashbuckling Pirate tale that I have never seen, know nothing, knew nothing of until now. What fun.

I don’t normally watch things all at once, I… Continue reading

Took today off to extend the weekend a little bit. Now, I don’t take vacations, single dudes don’t take vacations or if they do there is probably something going on that involves the word “hedonist” and I ain’t going there.

Been using them for… Continue reading

Ok, a So Then Sunday A re-visit here on a Sunday of a post from a Friday about a Friday a year or so ago (can it still be Friday by the way?) And a tune. To Cheap Trick’s “I Want You To Want Me” I like the “Ohhhh’s!” (link below) (this one is for… Continue reading

So a longtime friend, Rick, posted at Facebook not too long ago the sentiment “Uplift your friends, they are amazing”, something we could all use in doing more of, especially these days, almost at exactly the same time that I had done something to just that effect here in the Attic, for a co-worker. Longtime… Continue reading

Cricket the Blind: Hey Bella? Where you at? Bella: I’m over here on my chair, to your left. Cricket: Ok cool … ummm, where is my “left?” Bella: (sigh) the direction you always do your weird little Cricket circles in. Cricket: Right! Bella: No, left … wait, ya know what Cricket? Just say “correct”, gonna… Continue reading
