I love travel. I’m itching to go on a trip. I was supposed to go to Iceland again. And, again I won’t be able to. Who knows when I will be able to. Who knows when we all will be able to freely travel without fear of getting […]
I do not drive. Have never really felt the need to despite living in 20 cities. While I was an oddity in Los Angeles, here in New York I’m perfectly normal. And, that is how I like it. I do like riding in cars. I love singing in […]

Many people often tire of me saying how great New York is. However, a plurality of those who do so tire, are not New Yorkers and are jealous. Yes, I said that. Californians were quite often exasperated by my NY pronouncements. Notably, though, there are great qualities to […]
I used to live near ground zero. I would pass it everyday on my way to work. I’d always take a second to think of life, happiness and the sadness of what happened that day. I know people who lost a loved one there that day 18 years […]
This past summer (and yes this summer seems over) I had a chance to travel to Puerto Rico. Well, I didn’t have a chance. I made it happen. I took my son with me as the protests were winding down over the governor. This was the summer of […]
