Wise Madness
I’m back! I heard live music two nights in a row! Last night I went to Mary O’s for their Thursday night Irish Session. I tried to go to last week’s Thursday night Irish Session, but I had a flaw in my plan, it was Friday. The devil is in the details. Sadly, that means […]
Hallelujah! Last night I got another important part of my life back, my first show since COVID-19 at my home-away-from-home, Rockwood Music Hall. You can tell Rockwood is important, it gets its own macro. The artists were, Michael Daves, Tony Trischka, and Bruce Molsky; I’m starting off with Bluegrass and Old Timey. It was a […]
I did not take a Donut Walk™ yesterday; I took an IHOP Chocolate Chip Pancake™ walk instead. I sign up for restaurants that give birthday rewards, and this is the week I collect. The pancakes have a lot more calories than a glazed donut but it’s also a further walk, 4.6 miles round trip. It’s […]
There’s no joy in Metsville. Yesterday was one of the most painful losses I even attended. The Mets scored five runs before there were two outs in the bottom of the first. That’s great. But they never scored and hardly got any hits after that. In the meantime, the Pirates, the worst team in baseball, […]
Good news, you get to read an idiot story. Until the Wise Madness market research department tells me otherwise, I will assume that the thing My Gentle Readers most want to read about is me being an idiot. My supervisor agrees. She also supervisors the production of Gord’s Gold. I don’t mind the supervision, I […]
Where did today go? Why didn’t I write earlier? Once again I’m caught in a spacetime vortex. Do these things happen to other people? Is this what happened to Amelia Earhart? Are they going to find her sitting at a computer saying, “Where did the last 84 years ago? Why did I get on this […]
Here’s a peek inside my brain. I just read something on Facebook that got me mad. Ten seconds later I have no idea what it was. I’m not going to go back and try and find it. It was neither politics nor baseball, the two topics that generate the most posts that offend me. Guess […]
I had an eventful day, let’s see what I can remember, I walked 6 miles, an idiot story that involved blood being spilled, an unpleasant encounter with the police, hit subway delays, and a great Met game. I end with a eulogy for a friend. That was my day. I guess I’m finished writing. Oh, […]
Today is the Fourth of July, Independence Day, so I just did what I do every year on this date; I read The Declaration of Independence. I make it a habit on all holidays to spend time thinking about what we are honoring. The Fourth is my favorite American holiday, it’s barbecues, fireworks, baseball, and […]
Welcome to a writing while watching the Met game edition of Wise Madness. Let’s see if I can gather enough concentration. Yesterday was not a good day. The weather wasn’t good, I didn’t take my walk, the only time I left the apartment was a quick run to the local supermarket. I bought comfort food, […]
