Wise Madness
I got a job! I’m now a math teacher at a charter high school in Brooklyn! The interview I had last week went as well as I felt it did. The school is in Williamsburg. It will be a pain to get to. I’ll commute from the Bronx until I find a place closer. It’s […]
Ready for a change of pace? What’s on my mind is baseball and my beloved Mets. At the end there will be a little baseball related politics. I’m a member of a Met fan group and seeing what other people post there made clear that Met fans act like people in an abusive relationship. We […]
It’s been almost a week; I better write about Falcon Ridge before it’s time for next year’s festival. Do I remember anything? Enough. I am not going to do my usual play my play of the festival. This year I went as a civilian; there was no Budgiedome and I didn’t even bring my real […]
Sorry I’ve been so quiet. I know I barely touched Falcon Ridge but that will wait yet another day so I can write about my adventures the last few days, especially yesterday. I went to a new venue for me, The Sultan Room in Bushwick to see a lineup that might have been designed to […]
I’m back from Falcon Ridge. I was too tired to write yesterday now I’m pressed for time but will do my best. The adventure started before I left home. My ride had a family emergency and suddenly there was no way to get to Falcon Ridge and to make it worse he has my camping […]
With the heat wave over I was able to take a real walk yesterday, over four miles. I went shopping. Today I should go to the Botanical Garden. The fly in the ointment is getting ready for Falcon Ridge and doing laundry. I’m having a lot of anxiety over the festival this year. It’s happened […]
This week is off to a good start. Sunday night The Mets beat the Padres 8-5, breaking out of their scoring slump. They did this to make me look brilliant; Met manager Buck Showalter finally took my advice and started Guillorme over the totally hapless Escobar and inserted the newest Met, Vogelbach in as DH. […]
Judge not lest ye be judged; good advice that nobody follows, including me. I am fighting myself tooth and nail to not let this post become judgmental. I won’t succeed but at least I’ll make the effort. There I go judging the people that don’t. Before I fall down a black hole of meta, I […]
Yesterday I celebrated my birthday. Considering the heat, doing anything in a timely manner was beyond the call of duty. The real reason it was late was that yesterday there was a concert to go to, Aurora Nealand at Sunny’s in Brooklyn. Why have I never written about Aurora despite the great name? It’s even […]
I’m 65 years old now you’d think I’ve have learned to get myself to blog every day, yet somehow, I have lost that ability I used to have. Is this an effect of aging? This need to be studied. Who should I apply to for the research grant? Let’s go back to the distant past, […]
