OK so up to this point I’ve blogged and tweeted, updated my Facebook feed and hooked all my various digital incarnations together so
that I can update them all at the same time…Digital ubiquity has been achieved. I’ve published a book, so Digital publishing was achieved.
Tonight, as Darth Vader would say, “the circle is now complete”
My [...]
Now I’ve entered the Digital Reading age…
Congratulations Jim Rice…
As I tweeted Sunday morning, I am really happy for Jim Rice. There was a really good article in the Boston Globe this Sunday about Rice’s career in Boston. However my personal recollections were slightly different. I was a born Mets fan from SW Connecticut. I was a Yankee hater as soon as the [...]
Handwriting analysis…my personality…hmmmmm…..
I just did a handwriting analysis on a site called real simple. By writing “she sells seashells by the seashore” I was able to come up with the following about my personality:
Your writing slants to the right: You are open to the world around you and like to socialize with other people.

Process, McDonald’s, My minimum wage job in High School
So over the last week my tuna mac & cheese casserole video got a massive number of hits. This was due to a mention from a much more popular, eloquent (and better looking) blogger than myself, Cheryl Phillips, on her blog The Daily Blonde who, based on an interchange that started because of my Steak [...]
GM Chairman: He believes in “Strong Leadership”?

An ancient ritual…sort of…

The leaves that come off of this vine, as opposed to your standard concord grape vine, are really really tender. Great for making dolma and yalanchi. Those are the hot and cold versions [...]
I couldn’t resist…here is what I’ve written of Book 2 so far…

Remember, book 1 is published on the Amazon Kindle and the Kindle for iPhone and available for purchase today..see the link [...]
Book 2: starting to flesh it out a bit more
So I start with a letter about Pascal and his time from Pascal’s son to his grandson. It recounts the characters from the first book and then explains the tricky relationship between Pascal, Prince Consort and Lord of Naerius and leaves off with a “let me recount the first mission I went on your [...]
OK enough…
So last week, I had an emotional moment. Ed died, Farrah died, Michael died. (Sorry Billy Mays, no visceral reaction for you). I felt for a moment that the 1970s had died all at once. I got all choked up, not because of them in particular, but because it conjured up all kinds of [...]
