"Why Can’t People Return the Cart" 2-27-2026

Описание: Joefer here, The Cranky Old Gay Guy, today I take a funny look at grocery carts as I vent a bit about the never‑available small carts, abandoned carts blocking parking spaces, and the tight, stressful lots at Portland Trader Joe’s. He calls out perfectly capable shoppers who won’t return carts and bottle‑return folks who hoard the small ones. Mixed with humor, local color, and his trademark crankiness, he wraps with gym‑ruddy cheeks, a sunny Portland day, subscriber hopes, and a reminder to "Stay Cranky My Friends! Stay Cranky."

Joefer, The Cranky Old Gay Guy (that's me!) wrote a book.
It's a folksy bit of Americana about a mother reaching out to her gay, and distant, son. Told through a series of letters, the book is fictional, but still a very realistic portrayal of a west Texas mother's feelings, emotional struggles, and faith, in the turbulent 1970's. It will move you and stir your emotions.

"35 Letters: Letters From a Mother to Her Son"
by Joseph L. Ferguson.

Now available on Amazon in all formats.
It's a touching tale that you will love!
(This Book might very well have you in tears).

It Makes a Great Gift !!!
