Clearing The Page

Clearing The Page

    Sometimes it is best to start fresh.     As you can tell from the picture, My Odd Sock’s Topic/Idea page is plumb-full of scribbles, notes and enough unfunny jokes to remind one of an Adam Sandler movie (Or my stand-up act)!   But before I begin a new Topic/Idea page in my …

Learning From A Teenager

Learning From A Teenager

    As a 48 year old adult with a college education (a lofty 2.3 GPA), there was a time when I could say with confidence there was absolutely NOTHING to learn from some punk teenager. Boy, was I mistaken!   My teenage son just taught me an easier way to peel a banana!   …

Dog Daze

    Some days I wrack my lesion-filled brain for a subject to write about here at My Odd Sock. And other times, inspiration falls right into your lap!   Like it did recently as I was looking through one of those value flyer’s one gets in the mail. There before my mono-browed eyes, was …

Remembering When…

Remembering When…

Why not remember this My Odd Sock once again?  I saved it just for this occasion.  Enjoy!      Ah yes, memories.  The cornerstone of our minds. I feel like singing, but I’ll spare you as my singing voice resembles a cat in a fan. My voice is flatter than Kansas!   As humans, we …

Key(ring) To Savings

“Shopping” for a humor post, I saw this oldie and thought a “return” visit would be nice. Enjoy.      It started with one. For me, the first one was a stroke of genius!  What a novel idea….and a convenient way for me to accumulate and build a valuable cache of bonus-reward-perk-advantage points! Then I …

Breaking The Code

Breaking The Code

      I must have missed the meeting explaining the purpose of the secret, hieroglyphic whatchamacallits I find everywhere these days. Turns out they are not “hieroglyphic whatchamacallits” after all–but are QR Codes.       Short for “Quick Response,” the QR Code is a jacked-up two-dimensional matrix barcode when compared to the wimpy, …
