Things went back to normal yesterday and I took my Donut Walk™. I suspect I’ll skip it today because of the Seder but perhaps not. I am not going to let a little thing like keeping kosher for Pesach keep me from donuts the rest of the week. I’m a good Jew and eat matzoh […]

I did not make my donut walk yesterday! This morning I’m tired, is that cause and effect? What spelling of doughnut do you prefer, the one that refers to the dough, or the one that I believe was made up by Dunkin’ Donuts, now DD? I prefer doughnoughts, zeroes made from dough. That isn’t where […]
I forgot to blog yesterday. When I miss a day it’s usually because of time management, I start and then get lost doing other things. Not yesterday, I never started; because of that I’ve been on two expeditions since I last wrote. Sunday’s expedition was to Stop & Shop for my Pesach needs. That just […]
I have to force myself to get out of the house soon. Writing this now is part of the process. I need to do my Pesach shopping. All that means is buying a 5-lbs box of matzoh. If I could get it local that wouldn’t be a big deal, but I can’t. I have to […]
I got my COVID-19 relief money! I’m careful to not call it stimulus, that’s not its purpose. It’s to give people money to live on to help make up for losing earnings opportunity because of the pandemic. The other proper term would be rescue money. Everyone calls it stimulus, so it’s not wrong, but it […]

I’ve had a hard to stay awake day. It’s partially because of moving the clocks ahead. Last night I was preparing Gord’s Gold and wanted to set a record for earlier finish. I did but barely. I finished around 1 AM, but that included bundling the entire show into one long file to post on […]
Today’s goal, to finish recording Gord’s Gold before midnight, not start at midnight. I’ve wasted too much time already. I have to do more research before I start. Blogging is officially procrastination. There should be a word for productive procrastination. I have done everything else for the show, programmed the music, and made the excel […]
I went out yesterday! The weather was beautiful, and I needed food, so I decided to walk to Aldi. I haven’t done that since last summer. I even walked home, a different route than I went. My path was close to a circle as I have to walk around the reservoir. There’s only one thing […]
Greetings music lovers; that’s John Platt’s signature phrase and last night was John Platt’s On Your Radar so I’m using it. I’m debating continuing welcoming My Gentle Listeners on Gord’s Gold. I will never abandon My Gentle Readers. Later last night, 11 PM EST, Gord’s Gold was live on Folk Music Notebook. The archive at […]
I started to write an hour ago. I was going to say how I am finally getting through a day without feeling sleepy, then I fell asleep. You have to appreciate the irony. Is this not a coincidence? Was it thinking about that brought on the drowsiness? I suspect it was. I’ve been asking artists […]
