Technology is amazing. It seems as if there’s an endless game of “top this!” going on. There are so many advancements and changes it’s hard for anyone to keep up. During my meager shopping spree over the holidays (mostly clothes and some cheap blu-rays), I did pick up a couple of technology items. Nothing phantasmagorical… Read more »
Or, more accurately, music walks me, but that’s just not as sexy a title. In this case, though, music writes me, as I welcome you to a cornucopia of musically influenced random ramblings. Maestro, if you please… You cannot be Sirius! I’ve had XM Satellite Radio almost since its inception. Most of that was the… Read more »
When did it happen? Was it just the trip or has it been building for some time? In my quest to get “back” to health, I’ve been attempting to get myself up to my previous walking distance. Today, I pushed out to a little more than six miles. Tomorrow is eight. Except, I’m struggling. Ever… Read more »
I surprised myself on my walk yesterday when I started writing a book about a third of the way through (the walk, not the book). Now, it didn’t surprise me that I was writing a book while I walked, I’ve done that plenty of times before. What surprised me was that I was not even… Read more »
It’s been a little more than two weeks since my return home from the Great North American Baseball Road Trip and I am still doing my daily walks without my phone and accompanying music.

It seems like this is the year for me to be replacing stuff. Wear and tear appear to be catching up to me. Even though my appliances are only six years old, I’ve had to pick up a new bottom rack for the dishwasher, a new gasket for the ice maker and now my oven… Read more »
Continuing my series of posts related to my upcoming Great North American Baseball Road Trip… 15,148 miles. That’s not all of it, of course. There’s also any wandering, side stops, up and back to the hotels and motels, but, bottom line, it’s a lot of driving. Based purely on the point A to point B… Read more »
I began learning how to drive this past weekend. It sure feels that way, at least. After 10 years, I retired the trusty Avalon and now attempt to navigate around town in my new Legacy. In order to have some hope of making sense of everything, I’ve been reading the monstrous tomes known as the owner’s manuals…. Read more »
Except on rare occasions, I don’t blog on the weekend. The same goes for writing. I treat my writing like a job: work at it during the week and take the weekend to relax, do chores and visit family and friends. Which is not to say I stop “writing”; I just don’t do it on… Read more »
It’s been a while since the last blog. Frankly, I just didn’t have much fodder for blogging and my long-standing motto is “better no blog than a bad blog”. Of course, some of you might take issue with the posts I considered “good” blogs, but dem’s da breaks when you follow a personal blog. Now, read… Read more »
