During this pandemic I have been quarantined at home, admiring the great Southern California weather outside and not being able to enjoy it. Damn, as usual, perfect. I’m being tortured by the outdoor gods. No picnics at the beaches. Unable to enjoy a glass of wine and live music at our favorite outdoor wine tastingContinue reading “Weather or Not”

If you follow this blog (and we know who you are and we’re close to finding you) you know that I wanted to learn how to play an instrument. I finally did and I am now full of myself. Why stop at just playing music, why not create it? (Hey, I can hear you laughingContinue reading “Composing and De-composing”

A few years ago I was unable to lose any weight on the Krispy Kreme diet. I then decided to take the next dramatic step…a real diet. With all the talk these days about diets, it’s time I weigh in with my opinion: I’m on a diet and I’m hungry. Really hungry. I have putContinue reading “A Weighty Subject”

I’m not a hypochondriac, just highly susceptible to suggestion. The perfect example is medication commercials. When they come on, I have every symptom they mention and I’m convinced I need their medication or I’m going to die. I make a note to call my doctor in the morning and ask him about these meds, toContinue reading “The Cure For All Ills”

Writing blog posts can be fun but is it a challenge? What I write is cotton candy. What I should be doing is steak. Maybe I should take my shot at the great American novel. Do Tom Clancy’s or Clive Cussler’s books qualify? I do love Jack Ryan and Dirk Pitt (Dirk, now that isContinue reading “The Magical World of My Imagination”

I know it may be hard to believe but a conservative looking guy like me is deep down a Rock God. In my dreams, I look like a member of White Snake or Poison (1980’s hair bands) wearing my tight leather pants, prancing around the stage, wagging my tongue while tearing off a epic guitarContinue reading “Rock God”

I need help…well, my family has thought that for years. I think I’ve injured my right thumb. The more I use my TV remote, the pain gets worse. I am “quarantined” at home and doing some serious channel surfing. Considering I have nearly 10,000 channels to choose from (well, seems like it), it can beContinue reading “Sports, What Sports?”

You are so spoiled. You know who I’m talking to. All those whining about not being able to leave the house to get together with your friends are starting to grate on me. There was a time in this world when surviving until the next day was real work, and I’m not talking about theContinue reading “Hunter/Gatherer”

I pay bills on the 1st and 15th of every month…well, that’s my intention. My bills include things like my Netflix subscription, Amazon Prime Subscription, CBS subscription (got to get Star Trek), Disney Plus subscription, Apple TV subscription…you get the drift. Sometimes I misplace bills or screw up the math. I’ll forget to carry aContinue reading “I Got Your Stimulus Right Here”

We’re in the middle of something that doesn’t happen too often, a worldwide pandemic. We have all been affected one way or another. From being infected by this potentially deadly virus, practicing social distancing to avoid infection, being forced to work from home, being laid off from jobs, and battling for toilet paper at yourContinue reading “Welcome to a New America”
