The Silver Squad: Rebels With Wrinkles is totally original. But if I had to list my influences for this novel they would be a dollop of Harold and Maude, a pinch of Dexter, a sprinkle of Thelma & Louise, a dash of Bonnie and Clyde, a quiver of Robin Hood, and a curmudgeon of A […]

Marty’s photo of the day #4555: Exclusive capture via motion-sensing camera! Donald Trump trots out his new cabinet!
Marty’s photo of the day #4535: He is risen! Formerly known as the Republican Jesus, the resurrected Trump Jesus isn’t just for worthless prayers after school shootings anymore, he’s also there whenever you need him to justify a minority group to hate. Just pick a group and despise them in Trump Jesus’s name, and it […]
Marty’s photos of the day #4520-4522: The bathroom signs on the island of Bonaire cracked Deb and me up. She especially liked the top one, and I had to agree—particularly when it comes to Kamala Harris vs. The Ancient Orange Fascist.
Marty’s photo of the day #4514: So last month, Deb and I were snorkeling through the mangroves along the coast of Bonaire, and up pops Steve Irwin to remind us about not getting too close to the stingrays.
Marty’s photo of the day #4795: This is Eve (23 years old) and her daughter Lara Flynn Boa (12 years old). As documented in the Bible (Genesis 3), snakes can talk. And as if proving the Bible true, Eve spoke to me last night! She said, “Thou shall not post the Ten Commandments in all […]
Marty’s photo of the day #4755: These are western painted turtles, photographed in the Bitterroot Valley of Montana. And I found out their names! The one on the left is Mitch; the one on the right is his brother Mitch; and the one on the bottom is his other brother Mitch.
Marty’s photo of the day #4737: People tend to dislike vultures, but they are incredibly useful birds. Take this black vulture that I photographed in southern Florida. Who’s to say that she didn’t eat something incredibly rotten and disgusting before flying over Mar-a-Lago and letting it rip!
Marty’s photo of the day #4729: A storm is moving in. And it’s going to be the most beautiful storm. The best storm. In fact, it could be Stormy for the next several weeks.
Marty’s photo of the day #4726: Today I head back to Montana, following two fun shows in Illinois. Thanks to Lake Land College and Eastern Illinois University for booking me. Here’s one of the humorous shots from my show, Around the World in 90 Minutes. It’s me, at a tiny hotel in the Yukon Territory, […]
Marty’s photo of the day #4702: And suddenly, Nellie’s body stiffened. The crisp morning air carried the distant chirping of birds, and the exhilarating scent of fresh deer poop teased her senses. Yet at that moment, her eyes were fixated on the one creature that possessed the audacity to disrupt her joyful game of ball […]
Marty’s photo of the day #4675: I probably don’t need to tell anyone where I shot this photo, but then, I live in a country where large numbers of people believe that vaccines are harmful and Derek Chauvin and Donald Trump are innocent. So for those people, here’s a photo of “Venus.”
Marty’s photo of the day #4594: Steve Bannon’s spirit animal. Molting female elephant seal, photographed on a tiny island near Antarctica.
Marty’s photos of the day #4569: This is me, looking through the hole in Deb’s and my canoe after a hippo bit through it and lifted us six feet into the air. For the whole story, click here for a video from my college show Around the World in 90 Minutes: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4ChLv0RlsHs&t=4s (Photo taken in […]
Marty’s photo of the day #4492: Yesterday, I featured this bear shot from my motion-sensing camera as part of my Sunday “This Week at the Essen Wildlife Refuge” series. But I love this picture so much that I’m giving it its own solo post. With one slight improvement, however.
Marty’s photo of the day #4475: Last week, Deb (wife), Nellie (dog), and I spent a delightful few hours wading in Canyon Creek, which runs parallel to the U.S. Forest Service cabin we rented. Sometimes all the colorful rocks under the crystal-clear water just sparkled! Once, when the sunlight was perfect, I lowered my camera […]
Marty’s photo of the day #4474: One of the weirdest moments of Deb’s, Nellie’s, and my stay last week at the Canyon Creek Cabin was visiting the Canyon Creek Charcoal Kilns. From 1884 to 1900, men made charcoal there, which they shipped via horse-drawn wagons to the Glendale smelter, five miles down the road. We […]
