I feel like the luckiest man on earth writing this, with today marking what has been the best 20 years of marriage to the most incredible woman a man could ever ask for in someone like my wife, Ann. As a way to celebrate our super achievement, Ann, our son Eric and I decided […]
On Saturday night, Ann and I enjoyed another of Erics’ shows- A Chorus Line- and as usual it was great. Eric was super too. Playing the part of Greg,Eric sang when he had to but, in my opinion, it was how well he portrayed his character, a 32-year old homosexual man. As Greg, Eric brought […]
When Ann first talked about taking a ride down to Pennsylvania to check out what I now know is the beautiful Bushkill Falls in the Pocono Mountains, I didn’t exactly burst with enthusiasm. She, of course, had checked it out online and, I believe, been told by friends that they were certainly worth seeing. Not […]
I am talking about Unbroken, the powerful movie and true story of American soldier Louis”Louie” Zamperini who was taken as a prisoner of war by the Japanese during World WarII after having survived an incredible 47 days at sea after his plane crash-landed into the ocean after an engine on his plane had died. Anyway, […]
The they in my title above refers to our five pets- 3 cats(Margarita, Buddy and Zoe) and 2 dogs- that we currently have in our home. We ended up rescuing the dogs, Buddy, a Yorkshire terrier/Maltese mix and Zoe, a York Terrier/poodle mix often called a Yorkipoo where one of their previous owners had abandoned(Zoe) […]
As would be expected, I’ve had the occasional day where I’ve thought more about my dad than other days. With spring here and plants and flowers sprouting all around, I think that these thoughts have been more frequent because its getting close to Easter and the weather is slowly warming. Most Easter mornings consisted of […]
Since the coronavirus(COVID-19) disease reached the United States and, eventually, Connecticut, there have been a lot of changes made, most notably the closing of all schools due to the unknown danger that the pandemic may carry. As a result, even though there is still about three months left in the school year, there is, a […]
Maybe I’m nuts, but I, for one, think that a panic is setting in. For example, NCAA basketball went ahead and canceled many of its scheduled tournament games yesterday(Thursday) in light of the coronavirus outbreak here in the US. Maybe(and most likely) the NCAA fears what legal tidal waves they might face if they went […]
When the eagle became one of America’s national symbols more than 200 years ago, it was partly because they are strong birds who live a long time. It was also because these beautiful birds seem to float, a great symbol for America, who had just fought for and gotten its freedom. OK, now, I’m not […]
Though I just sent out another blog just a couple of days ago, I was itching to write about something else that happened to me a couple of days ago. Though one of the central subjects I am going to mention is a seizure that I had on that day, that is not the main […]
Who’s that guy? It’s my brother Steve, and him and I did a 5k(3.1 miles) race- the 99.1 PLR CrossPoint Federal Credit Union ShamRock & Roll race- in New Haven today. The thing a little difference about todays’ race, compared to other races that we have done in the past is that he and I […]
