Writing, Photography, and the life lessons I learned from Street Academy
NOTE: I am not an expert on international relations, or on war, or on attacks on neighboring nations. However, I have asked my old college buddy and lifelong friend David Lawrence, who has worked and lived in Kyiv for many years, to guest write today’s blog post on the Russian attack on Ukraine. โI canโt…
Read MoreLast week, I blogged about a recent lawsuit filed against one of my local butcheries, Primal, in which an ophthalmologist was told to wear a mask when entering the store (as was mandated by Gov. Hochul’s rules at the time), and he turned around and sued them, claiming that by ordering him to wear a…
Read MoreGood morning, blog readers. It’s Saturday, and I hope you were able to dig yourself out of that nasty Nor’easter that tore through the Capital District. Or, if you’re still procrastinating about getting rid of that igloo that surrounds your parked car … You can always stay inside, stay warm and enjoy these blogs and…
Read MoreYesterday, Texas Governor Greg Abbott directed the Texas division of Family and Protective Services to investigate parents whose children are trans, and report them for child abuse.

Read MoreOkay . Let’s get the first thing out of the way. Marjorie Taylor Greene is dumber than a bag of wet mice. As evidenced in this video clip. So let’s get the soup jokes out of the way first. Oh, and I need to call 9-1-1 and report a murder. But here’s the thing we’re…
Read MoreOh, what a day. All I want to do is just get home, take my shoes off, and relax. And the traffic on I-787 is looking rough. In fact, as I’m exiting 787 on Exit 8, the traffic looks like an old Boston traffic jam. Memories of the radio traffic reports from the old WEEI…
Read MoreI don’t follow professional tennis as much as I used to. But I do have a reasonable idea of the top stars in the sport. Serena Williams, Naomi Osaka, Roger Federer, Rafael Nadal, you know, enough to at least have some semblance of who are the big names in the competition. And I know of…
Read MoreYesterday morning, as I was checking my Twitter feed, I received some very interesting news. And I’d like to share it with all of you. That’s right. Marjorie Taylor Greene (Q-GA) spouted off one too many times about misleading and incorrect COVID-19 information, to the point where she apparently earned her fifth strike from Twitter.…
Read MoreI get it. Brandon Brown is a struggling race car driver in NASCAR’s Xfinity series, one level below the top Cup level of motorsports.
