It is “Sally The Intern Day” at WLBOTT HQ. So my daughter (and unpaid WLBOTT intern) Sally the Intern sent me a hilarious video collection of dads that dressed up like their teen aged daughters and recreated over-the-top drama. Sometimes the daughters laughed, sometimes they did not! Anyhow…. Growing Up in a WLBOTT Household Indeed, […]
Boxing Day – December 26th, 2025 At WLBOTT HQ, we assumed Boxing Day was a celebration of the manly sport of boxing, and we prepared our festivities accordingly. Weren’t we surprised that “boxing” refers to a custom of providing gift and monetary boxes to the poor! Boxing Day, also known as Offering Day, is a […]

Sunday was the Winter Solstice, the renewal of light. We note the perfect alignment of the HQ chimney and the WLBOTT retreat center. To commemorate the Solstice, we hiked up to our nearby City Park and photographed the giant compass face about 15 minutes after sunrise. Elder JimZim does some fact checking…. The WLBOTT Solstice […]
Today WLBOTT received a strongly worded email from the Far Eastern Electronic Toll Collection. We initially assumed the email was from our loyal followers from mainland China, since they represent the majority of our visitors. However, the email references both yuan (mainland China) and NT (Taiwan). The note also refers to the FETC, which is […]
Imagine Our chagrin (I’m using the WLBOTT Royal “We” here) when I asked Elder G to do some simple orbital perturbation calculations on a lesser moon of Jupiter, when s/he said: You’re not the boss of me. Then s/he said I wish I could, but I don’t want to. Elder G was watching a Hallmark […]
Fred, our Intern Penitent, was assigned office cleanup by the WLBOTT Elders. As you recall, Fred was banished to WLBOTT HQ by Sister Magdalena as penance for leading the Whoopee Cushion Riots. Before we get into our crisis du jour, a note about WLBOTT. We prefer cash. As part of our year-end financial review, we […]
Another day dawns for Fred, the Intern Penitent. It is day 3 of 317, as ordained by Sister Magdalena, as penance for Fred’s orchestration of the Whoopee Cushion Riots. The Elders have assigned Fred a long-overdue WLBOTT task: archive, copyright, and catalog the Elders’ Sudokus. Legal Issues Since there may be some legal issues involved, […]
As you recall, Fred, the Intern Penitent, is currently charged to WLBOTT, as penance for an incident at his Catholic Middle School. (https://www.wlbott.com/?p=62483) In order to understand Fred’s plight, we must understand his educational environment. Fred attends St. Gangulf Middle School. The “Whoopee Cushion Riots”, and Fred’s youthful rebellion has come to be known, occurred […]
[ed. note: Our new Intern Penitent, Fred, asked if he could do today’s blott. Since we all wanted to knock off early, we turned over the wordpress account to Fred. We’re sure he’ll do a fine job] Hey, peeps! Fred here. So I heard stories of the Elders’ tummy troubles. Actually, they never stop talking […]
