I’m not a huge football fan. However, I do usually catch the Superbowl. If anything, to catch interesting commercials. We all know the 1984 Apple Ad. We know the Clydesdales. Commercials used to be fun. Lately I’ve been into the actual games themselves. They’ve been close. That is […]
Towards the end of Lin-Manuel Miranda’s Hamiliton, George Washington muses: “You have no controlWho lives, who dies, who tells your story?And when you’re gone, who remembers your name?Who keeps your flame?Who tells your story?” As a kid who grew up as a storyteller, I readily get the power […]
I love watching the Olympics. Always have. I, at times, prefer the winter Olympics because those are truly sports I cannot do. First off , I don’t like the cold. Second, my level of coordination related to anything involving snow is abysmal. There is no third. That’s it. […]

Working in healthcare I carefully monitor health department guidelines. Dr Fauci has noted we won’t really be going back to pre-covid “normal”. We may not shake […]
I will admit that many years ago, before I worked out, I didn’t wipe fown. I felt tough, strong, and invincible. Obviously, I was stupid. There I said it. I would often wipe it down after using it but not before. How does that make sense? It doesn’t. […]
