Some men are born to Greatness, others have Greatness thrust upon them.

Steve once bumped into Greatness at a party, spilling a large plastic lamp-leg of V8 and ruining Greatness’ Booty Shirt (the one with humping porcupines). Since then, Greatness has kept a wary distance, laid a curse, and erased Steve from his Christmas List.

But Steve, ever the optimist, presses on.

He lives a quiet rural life with The Missus, two dogs, two cats, one bad knee, and a periodic dry-eye.

Knowing that Greatness has scorned him serves as motivation to keep Mediocrity from moving in. So he paints, writes, and posts his intermittently amusing thoughts here on Almost Daily.

Steve Merryman has been writing Almost Daily since just after the turn of the century.

“There are two kinds of people in the world. Avoid them.”
