So that’s what those Adirondack High Peaks are…
Earlier this year, I hiked through the Adirondacks on my way to the Boreas Ponds, and its breathtaking view of the Adirondack High Peaks in the distance. You know … this photo. This is a great photo … certainly a shoe-in for Competition Season 2018. Look at that mirror-glass water. That subtle color change of…

Okay, I’m ready for Wednesday’s trivia event. I’m going to arrive in plenty of time, I’m going to get some food to eat when I’m playing, and I’m planning on running the table. Got to Rivers Casino in plenty of time. Ordered some food. And when I arrived at the Van Slyck Restaurant, home of…
Read MoreMore of the Whitney Avalon Show!
Had a rough day yesterday. Everything that could go wrong … did go wrong. I need something to make me smile. Wait. YouTube message. My friend, actress / singer / comedienne Whitney Avalon has made another YouTube video? Damn I gotta check it out.
Read MoreSo can I get excited about the new Albany Patroons team?
Like most Capital Region basketball fans, I grew up with the Albany Patroons. Two CBA championships, five regular season league titles, more htan two dozen players and coaches who have graduated from the gold and kelly green at the Armory (and sometimes at the old Knickerbocker Arena) to the NBA.

I’ve had my BlackBerry PRIV for almost two years now, and it’s a fantastic smartphone. Probably the smartest smartphone out there. And last Wednesday, the dummy who owned it dropped it off the edge of a table. Chuck is a dummy. Yep. Crack in the screen. Nasty one. But not as nasty as what I…
Read MoreWeek 5 of the Trivia Unification Tournament
I gotta hurry. I’m running late. And the trivia host, Damon, starts a 7:00 p.m. game at 7:00 p.m. on the nose. Pulled into Rivers Casino’s parking garage. Quickly handed off my coat to Betsy the coat check lady, and got to Van Slyck Bar inside the casino – and made the game with two…
