Rock Mitchell: My worst enemy dwells in my car
http://rockmitchell.blogspot.com/2009/08/my-worst-enemy-dwells-in-my-car.html
Observation, experience, opinion. Sunday, August 23, 2009. My worst enemy dwells in my car. My greatest enemy is not the state's safety and emissions test (but it is a close second, since it has conquered me and my car every year for the past three years). And my greatest fear is not fear itself; as much as Mandela suggests. My greatest enemy and my greatest fear is actually the spider. She yelled, pointing at the dash above my steering wheel. I've been driving on pins and needles ever since, not sure wh...

Rock Mitchell: Anything can happen at Walmart
http://rockmitchell.blogspot.com/2009/09/anything-can-happen-at-walmart.html
Observation, experience, opinion. Sunday, September 27, 2009. Anything can happen at Walmart. If my printer were a vehicle, it would be a big-ol' SUV. It seems like it slurps up about a cartridge of ink for every 10 pages of print. For that reason, I stopped by Walmart the other day for a new ink cartridge. I had to nod repeatedly and slowly walk backwards until the lady forgot she was talking to me. Certainly crazier things have happened at Wally's Mart, though. When I was a teen, my younger brother...

Rock Mitchell: April 2009
http://rockmitchell.blogspot.com/2009_04_01_archive.html
Observation, experience, opinion. Saturday, April 25, 2009. I'd rather not tweet. It's hard to keep up with the latest, coolest thing. For instance, we still don't have a bagless vacuum or a toaster that fits bagels. I also didn't have a Twitter account, until just last week. I don't really know why I registered for one. I guess I just thought that someday I may use it, so it would be a good idea to nail down the user name I wanted before it got taken. Didn't sleep in today. Instead I got up early so...

Rock Mitchell: October 2009
http://rockmitchell.blogspot.com/2009_10_01_archive.html
Observation, experience, opinion. Sunday, October 25, 2009. That'll do it, folks. Alright, I'll break the silence. I know it's been a couple weeks since my last post, and I assume you all know what's coming: I'm done. It's been a heck of ride, writing columns here on rockmitchell.blogspot.com. Funny columns, stupid columns, confusing columns, offensive columns. Now it's time for the last type of column: the terminating column. The clincher. The closer. Well, I've written what I've wanted to write on this...

Rock Mitchell: Things we shouldn't give up when we grow up
http://rockmitchell.blogspot.com/2009/08/things-we-shouldnt-give-up-when-we-grow.html
Observation, experience, opinion. Sunday, August 2, 2009. Things we shouldn't give up when we grow up. I sat through a city council meeting a little while ago, I was on assignment for my job. In such a meeting, or most any kind of meeting, it doesn't take long to realize that some people can be very boring. Stay cool, Dean. work sucks but you don't! Or "You should have used up more sick days! But it seems only former presidents. Can nap on the job. 3 Show and tell. It would really improve employee re...

Rock Mitchell: I took the trash out and almost went with it
http://rockmitchell.blogspot.com/2009/10/i-took-trash-out-and-almost-went-with.html
Observation, experience, opinion. Sunday, October 4, 2009. I took the trash out and almost went with it. Listen up, men with a girlfriend or wife: never, ever, ever criticize your significant other's outfit. If you have anything less than positive to say about something she's wearing, punch yourself in the head before you open your dumb yap. With any luck, it will alter what comes out for the better. As I stood in the middle of our condo's parking lot, feeling like a jerk, I realized the door was locked ...

Rock Mitchell: June 2009
http://rockmitchell.blogspot.com/2009_06_01_archive.html
Observation, experience, opinion. Saturday, June 27, 2009. Holding off on the A/C. Http:/ www.bellsouthpwp.net/k/g/kgoss17/fan2.jpg. I like to fully enjoy the change in seasons- inside as well as out. So come summer time, I hold off on the air conditioner as long as possible. I usually don't turn it on until the paint on the wall starts to drip or my wife threatens to check into a hotel. It seems that in a woman's perfect world, we should all be like chicken eggs; incubated at a steady temperature. A col...

Rock Mitchell: May 2009
http://rockmitchell.blogspot.com/2009_05_01_archive.html
Observation, experience, opinion. Sunday, May 31, 2009. Evolution lapses on camping trips, Part 1. I'm sure women are the driving force of mankind's progression. We men are just too stupid on our own; we have no internal check and balance to keep us on evolution's path. The best place to realize this is a camp out. Get a bunch of guys together out in the wild, without female counterparts, and they immediately begin to degenerate. What do you say we plan a man-trip for some weekend? It's outings like this...

Rock Mitchell: July 2009
http://rockmitchell.blogspot.com/2009_07_01_archive.html
Observation, experience, opinion. Sunday, July 26, 2009. How to slow down the fast-paced city life. I can only listen to country music when I'm driving alone- my wife won't let me listen to it when she's in the car. It's not just that she doesn't like country. It's her incessant fear that one day I'll turn out to be a hick, and I guess she thinks country music could increase that chance. I actually didn't listen to country music growing up, in fact I currently like a lot of rap. And I drive a car....
