Wise Madness
I’m going to write a blog I should have written eight years ago, immediately after I sinned. In I Claudius Augustus says to Claudius; Your brother Germanicus says you are loyal to three things, Rome, your friends, and the truth. That’s the kind of thing I would like people to say about me.” That’s one […]
I haven’t blogged in forever and a day. I’ve missed writing about some great shows and the Mets. Now I’m going to try my hand at something I used to do quite a bit and was my original conception of what Wise Madness should be, explaining my thoughts. Today’s topic is, why people follow religious […]
Time to try and start daily blogging again. I probably won’t succeed but I definitely won’t if I don’t try. Yesterday I went to the Hudson West Folk Festival. I’m on the advisory board and have been volunteering there since it started. I work the merch most of the day but get relief to go […]
It’s time to get back to writing. I had a bout of COVID-19 but that might be more of an excuse for not writing than a reason. It’s hard writing every day. How did I do it for 20 years? My blogging muscles were strong from use. I must make the strong again. I’m not […]
It’s 8:03 PM on a day I had no plans and I’m just starting to blog. That’s not good. Now I have to squeeze it in before the Met game. Yesterday’s adventure was my first walk to Aldi in ages. I used to do this weekly. It’s 2.94 miles away. That’s not too impressive but […]
I’m trying something new, writing while watching the Democratic National Convention. I’m not sure why I’m watching, I dislike political speechifying. I like the way I put it yesterday, It’s pretty much the same thing as a high school pep rally. I don’t need help getting psyched for this election. I’m going to a virtual […]
The Mets were losing 7-1 so I turned it off and switched to the Democratic Convention. A few minutes there reminded me of what I always knew, political conventions are just high school pep rally with better guests. The silver lining to this cloud is that I now I have an opportunity and motive to […]
I’m doing it, I’m posting every day! Technically I didn’t blog Wednesday as it posted it after midnight, but that’s now how people think. Yesterday’s adventure was going to the Met game. Notice it’s “Met” singular. That is standard usage in New York. I understand that it sounds odd to people in other parts of […]
I am going to try and blog for the first time in months. Yesterday was my birthday, now that I am older and more mature, I might be up for it. I’m not going to be overly ambitious. I’ll stick to the highlights surrounding my birthday. First off, I care about my birthday, This is […]
I am burning the candle at both ends; let’s see how long I can keep this up. Last night, Dan and I went to see the incredible Kaia Kater at Cafe Wha in Greenwich Village. Before I got to the show I taught a full day of school, prepared the Facebook Event for On Your […]
