Another Monday morning is here. The winter chill is starting to creep in. And pirates off the coast of Africa are being subjected to Britney Spears’ music; which apparently is serving as a deterrent. Blasting music to annoy others is nothing new. I remember when I lived in […]
October 27 is the 300th day of the year and there are now less than 65 days left to the year. That seems rather ominous. Back in 1929, October 28 now labeled Black Monday, was a dark day in the Wall Street Crash of 1929. The last week […]
Tell me, which week doesn’t have a ton of wacky people doing silly things and even harmful things. I won’t even touch the latest school shooting. The media has noted the fact that one of the two who died (a teacher at the school) was a former soldier […]
Sundays were a very special day growing up in my household. It was a day where I got to play board games with my mom and we sang and danced together. There were no cell phone or iPad application games that we individually played for hours on end. […]

I have been in a bit of haze. Will the government shut down? I am not too sure that many people care as to whether the government shuts down. It is not like they do much anyway. 1. Duct-tape bandits. Do you remember when US Homeland Security Secretary […]
It is Monday morning and it’s time to despise the clock, down some caffeine and write up that overly ambitious weekly todo list. It is time to rummage through the clothes bin to find the least wrinkled dress. It is time to review the weekly calendar to determine […]
The New York City primary election is over, although we still have no definitive winner. Everyone knows Deblasio has this, but Thompson is being a stick in the mud. That’s ok, for this is democracy in action. I will tell you what, though. We miss Weiner and his […]
