None of us likes being caught up in a trap. Most of us probably sympathized with Bugs Bunny versus Elmer Fudd. We didn’t really want him to trap that wacky wabbit. We also don’t like being duped. We don’t want to spend our hard-earned money on crap or […]
I, like many nowadays, love traveling. The world has managed to get smaller. Sadly, I must work and as an American I only get so many vacation days a year. So, I have to make my vacations really count. For me that means, I wake up at […]
Many moons ago, I had an opportunity of a lifetime to live abroad in Barcelona, Spain. I was young, impressionable, and eager to learn. Not many people get a chance to live abroad when they are a high schooler. By the time I got to college, […]
I’m not a big fan of spam. Yet, I have a certain psychological, sentimental fondness for spam. On the 5th of July in 1937 (right after the 161st birthday of the United States) Hormel foods introduced us all to spam. I wasn’t alive then and neither were my […]

I’m out in LA, the land of sun, surf and Hollywood dreams. It’s also the land of horrible traffic, poor public transportation infrastructure and oil wells well within beach range. Yes, I am not exaggerating. But I am not here to bash LA. Not really. Today, I […]
As a New Yorker, I’m used to scanning ahead. Let me explain myself. I walk everywhere in New York. I walk because I love walking. If you have never walked in New York, do so. Put it on your bucket list of things to do while still on […]
