We here at MojoFiction recently thought that maybe we should stop referring to ourselves in the plural. But don’t count on it. We have lots of thoughts, most often after a beer or two. Guess how often those come to fruition? Anyway, let’s talk baseball. Ah, baseball. America’s summer sport. We have loved baseball ever... Continue Reading →
TELEVISION IS A HARSH MISTRESS
Okay, so several years ago we here at MojoFiction thought it would be a good idea to cut cable T.V. We have not missed it one bit. Until last night. That’s when the hydra to our Hercules reared its multiple heads. And by hydra we mean NBC. And by Hercules we mean MojoFiction. What? That’s... Continue Reading →
An Apple a Day Will Give You U2
When it comes to our blog, MojoFiction isn't exactly a current events kind of guy. Except for that celebrity-nude-photos-in-the-cloud hacking scandal. We're keeping a close eye on that one (too close, according the district attorney). And now comes the Apple – U2 free-album scandal. Only in America could receiving free stuff be looked at with scorn. ... Continue Reading →
September Bells are Ringing
Ah, September. That magical time of year when Christmas decorations go up in department stores across America! The good folks at MojoFiction feel bad for atheists. They already don’t like Christmas, but now, thanks to certain stores that will remain nameless (for instance, we won’t say Macy’s), they have to deal with it starting in... Continue Reading →
DOG DAYS: ON BEING UNEMPLOYED IN THE MIDDLE OF SUMMER
We here at MojoFiction have been away for a while. We did not intend to be. But back in June we had just made a huge scientific discovery using our rarely-mentioned PhD in neuroscience from one of the nation's top schools that operates only on the internet and, for some reason, only accepts tuition payments...

I Got Your Inspiring Blogger Right Here…
The crew here at MojoFiction opened up our personal email the other day and found out that the good folks at Bookish (bookishswint.wordpress.com/) had gone and done something consistently frowned upon in the free world: they nominated MojoFiction for one of those blogger awards. This is generally considered a bad idea, mostly by PETA and also the internet because... Continue Reading →
TRUMP VS. CHICAGO VS. MOJOFICTION
It’s a three-way battle for Midwest supremacy! As you know, MojoFiction has been trying to take over the tri-state area for years, but a strangely violent platypus keeps thwarting our plans. So we’ve left that job to someone else and set our sights on Chicago. Unfortunately, it looks like two giants are already duking it... Continue Reading →
Great Moments in Dad History – Minecraft Edition
Sometimes you create your own moments. Father's Day is arriving soon. Time for more Great Moments in Dad History. We here at MojoFiction have a competitive relationship with our nine-year-old son. This may have led to some bad behavior. For example: Sometimes our son gets up early in the morning just so he can hide out... Continue Reading →
Who Watches the Bird Watchers?
Just this past weekend we here at MojoFiction finally pulled ourselves out of the gym and went for an outdoor run. Naturally, there is a big difference between exercising on a treadmill and taking the workout outdoors. First of all, there are more ticks outside and, honestly, a lot more goose poop. Why would there... Continue Reading →
From Here to Eternity (okay, from here to Dog n’ Suds, but it felt like an eternity)
Okay, we're a little late to this article. In our defense, baseball got in the way and, since we're a guy, you are required to accept "baseball" as a valid excuse from us for pretty much everything. Accidentally pushed the red button while visiting the White House? - baseball. Mistook the dog for a towel and used... Continue Reading →
