Bloody Bloody Andrew Jackson at The Public Theater
I am about to be pretty harsh in my review of Bloody Bloody Andrew Jackson which we saw last night at The Public Theater. If you’re a fan of the show, you might want to turn away now. If you don’t like reading anything critical of anything or anybody, turn away now. I […]

Lost and Found Karma
In 2000, my most trusted device was my Blackberry. This was before Blackberrys were also cell phones. This was only an email device. It was perfect for my needs, and I loved it. I went on a trip to San Francisco and I knew before I left that my belt clip was very […]

Wonderful Weekend Wedding
Heretofore, whenever I saw the letters WWW, I inevitably thought World Wide Web. From now on, when I see WWW, I’ll think Wonderful Weekend Wedding! We have incredible godchildren who’ve brought many blessings into our lives. Among these is the wide circle of wonderful people attracted to them, who’ve become life-long friends of […]

Girlyman at Birchmere
Last night was our 13th time seeing Girlyman live. The last time we saw them was the only time we took no guests. Last night, we set a new record (previously 19 at Highline Ballroom). Including us, we purchased 26 tickets for last night’s show. Two of our expected guests missed their flight […]

Mary Poppins
Laura and Chris saw Mary Poppins on Broadway last year and raved about it. Aside from Wicked, we rarely see any shows unless we go with friends who are visiting NYC. Chris’ parents are in town visiting them this week, and Chris and Laura bought four tickets to take them to see Mary […]

Wes and Hadar’s Excellent Adventure
Many more people participated in one or more of the activities I’m about to list. Only Wes and I enjoyed every single one of them, hence the accurate title. 🙂 Wes flew up on Thursday morning and I picked him up at Newark Airport. We headed straight to the city and met Lois […]

Girlyman at Highline Ballroom
For those keeping score, and I know that there are scores of you doing so, 😉 last night was the 11th time we’ve seen Girlyman perform live (the second time at the Highline Ballroom). In addition to owning their four CDs, we also purchase the recordings of each show we see live (and […]

Happy Birthday Lois
Lois and I rarely exchange gifts or cards on any occasion, including birthdays. The main exception is that Lois has gone out of her way to make some of my milestone birthdays very special affairs. That included my 30th, 35th and 50th. This was not a milestone birthday for Lois, but I decided […]

Make the Time
Lois and I have been, and continue to be blessed, in many ways. At or near the top of that list is the amazing group of friends that we have. Individually and collectively, they bring us immeasurable joy, and expand our horizons with each interaction. I know that many people lead busy, complicated […]
