I Visit My Friend From Greek Mythology

He was pushing a gigantic rock up a steep slope. “Hi, Sisyphus, how it’s hanging?” “Oh can’t complain, blog-writing Paul, except maybe for this eternal torment the gods gave me.” “What did you do, Greek guy?” “Oh the usual, pissing off the gods. I guess I was too much of a…

What I Did Today

It hid under a floor mat I got up, showered, and dressed. My friend and  I went to a doctor. Then we went to an exercise class.

As am I. I got home and found out my cell phone was missing. I searched…

And in the vein of “why, why, why Delilah?” I offer the following…

Paul’s Awesome English Dictionary: Today’s Word – Pqfkqpltw

Foreign words can be difficult to pronounce. Words that we’ve never seen before are also hard to say correctly, such as ‘”reconnaissance” was for eight-year old me. Sure, we could say, “That word is hard to pronounce.” However, that is a sentence, of six words no less. What if we want to say that in just one word, one that evokes the difficulty of a nearly unpronounceable word? This  paragraph…
