So Many Spam Flavors
Who in the world knew that there are a ton of different Spam canned meat flavors? I just looked on Amazon to see if they can beat Walmart’s price on the original Classic Spam (and they did), but I saw that there is not just Classic Spam, but also Gochujang Spam, Hickory Smoke Spam, Hormel Bacon Spam, Hot & Spicy Spam, Hot Honey Spam, Jalapeno Spam, Japanese BBQ Sauce Spam, Korean BBQ Spam, Maple Spam, Oven Roasted Turkey Spam, Teriyaki Spam, and Tocino Seasoning Spam. There could possibly be even more flavors. I didn’t browse around to find out. I… Continue reading

I Have Blogging Goals
Do you set personal goals for yourself? I have a personal blogging goal for this blog to post at least 1 post per day. So far this month I have maintained 10 or more posts per day. Site building posts, and Hot On Threads have been major contributors to that. Continue reading

Bixby Lied To Me About The Weather
This Jibber Jabber post is a slight rant, so skip rants if you hate rants. This evening I am a little shocked, baffled, annoyed, and my flabbers are gasted. For longer than I can remember, Bixby (Samsung’s mobile assistant on Galaxy phones) has been my weather man. I just ask it something like “Is it going to rain tonight?”, and it checks the local weather and let’s me know right away what to expect, and as far as I can remember, it has always been correct. I did that tonight on my new Samsung S26 Ultra, several times in fact… Continue reading

Site Layout Changes And Other Recent Site Updates
Today is Thursday, October 15th, 2026 and CRAYY.co is a whole 1 month old. I’ve been extremely busy blogging and building this site. In 1 month I have over 200 posts published and 61 pages. I’ve had more likes and comments left on this blog in this 1 month than I ever have on any other blog I’ve maintained on the WordPress platform since I got on it in 2014. I don’t know what that says about me as a blogger, but I apparently I started doing something right. In a quick time, I have had to change the way… Continue reading

I’m Alive Right Now!
What’s a moment in your life that made you feel truly alive? Bundle the last 6 years into a moment for me that definitely has me feeling alive. By alive, I’m led to believe we’re talking about happiness. I am feeling happy, but it has come at some costs involving escape from narcissism in my immediate family, going no contact with them, being independent, transforming my finances and building credit, working every single night since September 2023, and only missing one of them because the highway got closed due to snow (that’s what they do in Alabama because we can’t… Continue reading

People Are Going To Read What Catches Their Attention
How do you write what people actually want to read? I don’t think there is a magic formula for catching someone’s attention to your writing. For me, I just try to keep it real. I write like I talk. Some people like that. Some people don’t. It’s okay either way. You’re not ever going to appeal to all audiences. Continue reading

Thank you Askismet
I was craving cheese last night, and I just ate some sharp cheddar cheese, but that’s not the topic of this post. So I’m typically not the type of blogger who leaves my website and blogs open for comments, specifically due to that I’m not a fan of moderating for spam or trolls, but when I started CRAYY.co on the 15th this month, I thought I would change my tune and try to have an open forum on this domain where people could comment or leave feedback. Imagine my shock when I actually started getting comments lol. It was like,… Continue reading

I Stay Busy Busy Busy!
How do you make time for self-care? I am of course referring to my blogging, content creating, and publishing work when I titled this post “I Stay Busy Busy Busy”. I think a healthy form of self care is to never get bored. An easy way to never get bored, is to find something to write about, or find something on the internet to share with people, and I definitely stay busy doing those things. Even when I am doom scrolling, I’m busy looking for something to write about or share. Stay busy! Busy busy! Continue reading

I wish I had stopped Moving To Different Websites And Blogs So Much
What’s one thing you wish you had started doing earlier in life? I got on the Internet in 1998 with a device called WebTV, and my nose has been glued to a screen ever since. That’s nearly 30 years. In that time, I have started and abandoned countless websites and blogs but somehow always ended up at another domain because another “great idea”. I am getting older now. I am hoping that SURF MAN and CRAYY might finally be the website and blog I stick with. I currently have a bunch of stagant sites and domains in my WordPress platform… Continue reading
