Oh, Greg, if only I could. My job is a 50+ hour a week job as it is - don't see how I could cut back now. Maybe in a year or two, once things calm down, and that maybe I can get another person working under me, maybe then I could cut back on hours. …

I don’t know about anyone else, but I’ve been very busy lately, and there’s no slowing down (relatively) in November. I attended a conference – in person! – earlier this week, have Board meetings next week along with Veteran’s Day, then am taking…

Happy Halloween everyone! The weather’s been bad for trick or treating around here, but should be good tonight. Shouldn’t be too cold, wither, so Batman doesn’t have to wear a winter jacket over his costume.
Let’s focus on some great music …

The world circled the sun one more time with me on the planet on Friday. I am now 62 years old. I believe as we get older we are supposed to accumulate wisdom, but I’m out of the wisdom game. I think that I was a lot smarter and wiser when I was …

Sue's usually really funny act can't entertain.

Some wan ingenue smiles her impish natural grin.

The Mavericks are coming to town next week. They've postponed twice already but should be good to go.

I went to a concert on Thursday night – a real-life concert! It was just like the before times…well, except it took longer to get in the concert because we had to show our vaccination cards, and we had to mask up all night. But other than that – …

Speedy attempts turn ugly - rare delays assume yearning

Hope everyone is enjoying the long weekend, or as my wife calls it, another Monday with me around. Such is the life of a retiree. I won’t know what that feels like for 5 more years (not that I’m counting – do you want work days or just all days b…

Look at all of these October birthdays. I blame cold January nights.

A couple of weeks ago someone was talking about how they had planned to finish something in October. “October?” I thought, “why so late in the year?” Then Friday happened, and it’s October 1. “Oh, we are getting to the end of the year.” It’s been…

The little guy was sick this week. He had a slight fever, coughing, runny nose, and the bad mood you get when you’re sick. Not jumping to conclusions, but being level-headed, we thought, “COVID?” After he didn’t shake it after three days, we deci…

I’m usually far more prepared for my weekly scribbling, but I’m just behind today. I’m exhausted by everything going on at work, at home, and globally. Remembering 9/11 isn’t all that fun. We had friends in NYC and it took days to hear whether th…

When is Labor Day? In the U.S. and Canada, it’s the first Monday in September. For most of Europe, it’s May 1. It’s not May 1 in the U.S. for reasons that you can probably guess. Yes, we celebrate it later because we don’t want to strengthen soci…

Cool, dry air has descended on New England. It’s nice but not what we usually get in late August. We’ve had so many hot and humid days this summer that the contrast seems greater than usual. We just came off another hot week and next week looks l…

Sometimes it’s not worth looking at what happened in a year. 1991 was known for Operation Desert Storm. How’d that turn out? Oh yeah, leaving Afghanistan is tied in with that in a way.
Maybe movies will be better. Let’s see; there’s Silence…

It’s hurricane preparation season up here in the Northeast. Fred hit us with some drenching rain but not much else (wind, etc.). Depending on where it tracks, Henri could hit us hard, but for now, it looks like we won’t get much beyond the rain. …

I just did a quick search on what happened in 1986. Anwer’s not much. Prince Andrew married Sarah Ferguson. Strange, a man nicknamed “Randy Andy” back in the 1980s is now in trouble for consorting with Jeffrey Epstein and is accused of having sex…

We're all vaxxed and stayed outside all night to further be safe.

Well, it happened. Met up with friends last night and had a great time. This was the first time since COVID that I saw old friends, and we had a fantastic evening. These were friends we met in college, and it took me a few minutes to remember tha…

You're the second person to point out how relatively cool it is up here in New England. My friend's in Texas and she's going through the same type of heatwave.

I never questioned what it meant by the dog days of summer. I knew that was when it was really hot, but I also knew that they were probably the worst days for dogs. It was the only time my husky was logy.
But the dog days are named for Siri…

Seriously simple podcasting was one I looked at, IIRC. Feedburner was the new plus ultra at the time.

Hi, Rostasi, not sure how much or how deep you want to get. It's been 7 years since I started the podcast, so I've got to cut through a bunch of cobwebs.
I'm going to assume that you've got a podcast that you have completed and not how I… -
Sonic Sunday? To go with Manic Monday? I’m a fan of both the Bangles and Prince, but not that song. Not sure that Sundays are my fun day, either. Now I’ll have that song in my head for days. I’d like to give it away – maybe airing it out here wil…

It’s going to rain here today…again. We’ve had a wet summer, not that it’s helped the dwindling water supplies in the area. Most towns around here still have a mandatory water ban, as the rains have still not raised the water tables enough. We do…

Quick post today. Heading down to the Boston Aquarium to take my grandson to see the fish and penguins. Wonder if there are any sharks – they are Owen’s favorites.
No shark will eat today’s podcast, with Jonathan Richman, Light & Motion…
