Brain Farts was a weekly humor column that ran in the Louisville Eccentric Observer from mid-2000 until the summer of 2002. It was, well, eccentric. And occasionally satirical. And sardonic. Some liked it, some hated it; some just didn't get it, and that's OK. There were times when I didn't get it either. I've compiled here some of the archives from Brain Farts for the enjoyment of friends, family and anyone else who happens by. I also have written some new Brain Farts, and added some links and other trivialities that you shouldn't be too concerned with.

Unless you're as bored as I am.

 

 

Tribute to Toby

Toby was my dog from 1990-2000 before cancer came along and he had to be "put to sleep" (stupid cancer). Anyway, here are a couple photos of a dog I consider one of the All-Time Greats. (Click on the thumbnail to see the photo larger. C'mon, do it!)

Toby guarding the back yard. Toby watching squirrels out the back door. Here's an article I wrote just after Toby died. It was published in LEO in February, 2000.

 

My pal Jen sketched this portrait for me using pastels. Compare it to the photo top center. Scary, huh?

This photo was used in the 1996 United States Humane Society desk calendar. No, seriously. Toby was a celebrity of sorts.
