One of the great things about these all-inclusive streaming TV channels like Tubi and Pluto and whatnot is that they have a ton of content from various places, and if you simply search around on the channel, you’ll find something worth watching. And boy oh boy did I find something worth watching. For this, you…
Read MoreJust remember it’s now “In all of us command,” not “In all thy sons command.”
Last night, the Albany Patroons lost a close game to Academie d’Alma, a prep team in the TBL. I mean, it gives the Patroons their second loss of the season, but they’re still dominating the TBL’s Northeast Division. I arrived at the Armory to find that the person in charge of the paper running stats…

And in case you were confused … my previous post was indeed an April Fool’s Day prank. Granted, it’s not on the level of my classic from 2017, but it’s a good one nonetheless. Be that as it may … Here’s a recap of my blogroll’s best. Check out these writers, bloggers and photographers, they…

Read MoreAtomic Nipper.
I told you I was going to play with this kaleidoscope gizmo and get a killer photo out of it. Took me maybe 24 hours to come up with this little treasure. And you know if I’m going to test this kaleidoscope gizmo out on something … it has to be the RCA Nipper statue…
Read MoreSo that’s a Pyramidion Kaleidosphere. Can I use it as a camera lens?
I swear … inspiration for photographic concepts comes from the weirdest of places. And in this case … it involved 2:00 a.m. insomnia scrolling on social media. It’s where I saw what appeared to be an advertisement for a very cool kaleidoscope. To be more precise … it’s a Pyramidion Kaleidosphere. This device. Gaze and…
Read MoreLondon Lightning v. Albany Patroons – Round II
On March 31, 2022, the Albany Patroons – who at that time were in the midst of a 28-game home unbeaten streak – took on the National Basketball League of Canada’s London Lightning, who at the time were on their own unbeaten streak. Two irresistible forces approaching each other. And in the end, Albany prevailed…
Read MoreK-Chuck Radio: A modern rendition of a vintage spiritual.

Read MoreAlbany Patroons 120, Academie Alma 80 – and I’m back behind the microphone.
Honestly, I think the only job I HAVEN’T undertaken with the Albany Patroons over the past 40 years has been power forward. Then again, if I did that, I’d lead the league in turnovers, in bricks, and in bench minutes. That’s one helluva triple-double. Anyway … Last night, the Patroons hosted Academie Alma, a college-level…
