About this blog
Mike Argento, a York native and graduate of York Suburban Area High School and Penn State, first came to the York Daily Record in 1983. He even had gray hair back then. After stints covering everything from cops to city hall to state government to the environment, he began writing a column for the paper, three times a week, in 1989. His column can be about anything and so is his blog, which encompasses life in York County and beyond. And, for the record, as he told his wife the other night, he wishes people would stop asking him, 'What's wrong with you?' He really doesn't know.

In this week’s edition of What Have We Learned, Tom sets the tone with a rant that ends with “but that’s just me.” And well, yeah. Typically, I don’t like puns, but I couldn’t pass this one up because it … Continue reading

We go back to the well
What Have We Learned goes back to the well for the low-hanging comedic fruit that is Sarah Palin. We’re so ashamed that we mixed up our metaphors. That, and a summer solstice joke. You can’t find man summer solstice everywhere. … Continue reading

A shout out to a terrible movie, and more Weiner!
In this week’s edition of What Have We Learned, Tom and I discuss Weinergate and that it may have something to do with the guy’s name. Who figured on that? And we discuss perhaps the most depraved, terrible movie ever … Continue reading

This week in perversions
Tom invents — we hope — a new perversion in this week’s edition of What Have We Learned. At least we hope he invented it. We’re too afraid to Google it. That and jokes about trucks in the creek, Arnold, … Continue reading

A very special “bin Laden is dead” edition!
This week, well, we couldn’t resist. Osama bin Laden sleeps with the fishes. They say you shouldn’t kick someone when they’re down, but in this case, we have to make an exception. And we have jokes about his second-in-command, the … Continue reading

The birth certificate…
In this edition of What Have We Learned, Tom and I try to come up with a joke about Barack Obama trying to placate Donald Trump by releasing his birth certificate. We don’t really come up with anything we can … Continue reading
