I love to travel, try new foods, ingest caffeine, and watch political news coverage. A psychologist by training trying to bring a little common sense to it all.
My son loves pizza. And that is an understatement. When we went to Rome, he was ecstatic because he could feasibly have pizza for breakfast, lunch and dinner. That was the definition of extreme happiness. He grew up on New York pizza. Well, he is still growing up […]
Have you ever heard the song “Here’s where the story ends” by the Sundays? The song is a couple of decades old and was popular on college radio back in the day. It has a soft, pleasing melody that somewhat hides a darker vision of the world. Notably, […]
I woke up at 2am with a leaky eye. I was frightened that I now had an eye infection as well as my cough and ear pain. I watched the television show Scorpion to help help me fall back asleep. The problem with doing that is that the […]

Have you seen Fight Club? I have a set of windows in my Los Angeles apartment that are very reminiscent of a few scenes in the movie. From my window you can see the financial institutions. It is a beautiful view. Anyway, Fight Club was a great movie. […]
