Donald Trump was impeached last night. He is the third President to be impeached. He is the first President to be impeached in his inaugural term. Now what happens? First off, just because he was impeached doesn’t mean he’s out of office. He can still show up in the Oval Office today. Once a President…

Mike Tomlin for Coach of the Year – there is no other argument against it
The Pittsburgh Steelers – my team of choice – have employed only three head coaches in the past fifty years. And in that time, those three coaches – Chuck Noll, Bill Cowher and Mike Tomlin – have brought the City of Steel eight Super Bowl appearances and six championships. But those three men have only…
Read MoreSo maybe I’ll see Star Wars IX at the Madison Theater this weekend…
When I lived in Pine Hills, I would visit my local movie house, the Madison Theater. It was only a brisk walk from home, and the amenities were decent – tasty popcorn, good films, decent atmosphere. But the Madison has gone through several iterations and renovations since its opening in 1929. It was a single-screen…

The future adventures of Leica Green
I’ve owned my Leica M3 (“Leica Green”) for several years now. It was gifted to me by a wonderful blog reader, and in the time I’ve owned the camera, I’ve had it re-leathered, added a nice strap, and shot several dozen amazing images through it. I’ve shot with print film, slide film, black and white…
Read MoreThe PBS children’s shows that make me feel nostalgic again
When you’re 56 years old (like me), or you’re feeling like you’re 56 years old (again, like me), you tend to reminisce about your childhood. And I’ve done this on more than one occasion. Today, I’m going to reminisce about some of the great children’s TV shows I used to watch WAAAAAY back in the…

The Rexleigh Bridge in 3D
I’ve photographed the Rexleigh Bridge in Washington County over the years, trying to find the best image that I can possibly create. Two years ago, I achieved that with my Milky Way photo Washington County, 2:30 a.m. So this year, I wanted to see what would happen if I tried to capture the Rexleigh Bridge…
Read MoreAlbany Patroons announce 2020 schedule!
Hey, look what popped up in my Facebook feed yesterday! Yes, the current reigning TBL champion Albany Patroons have released their schedule, amidst a bevy of new and returning TBL teams. Gone are the Yakima Sun Kings, Albany’s opponent in the last two playoff championships. Gone are the New York Court Kings, who essentially abdicated. …
Read More“Calvin and the Colonel” – a kid’s cartoon with a shady past
I’m going to introduce you to a 1961 TV cartoon called Calvin and the Colonel. The show only lasted one season – maybe it aired for about two months before it was pulled for low ratings. Yeah. Not exactly groundbreaking television here. The animation is definitely 1960’s-era “limited animation,” sort of along the lines of…
Read MoreBachelor Cooking: Steak and Baked Potatoes (with no microwave)
Bachelor cooking has entered a new phase. After ten years of using a second-hand low-power microwave that someone gifted me after my divorce (probably thought I’d use that thing instead of using a stove or an oven), I tossed the old microwave away. Low-powered microwaves are a blemish on society – you have to figure…
