Opera and Folk but Not Folk Opera

I missed writing yesterday so now I have a lot to catch up on; one of the best concerts I’ve ever been to, an idiot story, and the end of the world. See what happens when you miss a day? Friday night I went to see Hawktail. This was my first time seeing them as […]

Not Idiot’s Delight

I’m not sure where today’s entry is going but I do know there’s an idiot story, a good one. I decided to do something special for dinner last night, have the second half of the high-quality steak I bought on great sale. I froze it. I looked in the freezer and found it was even […]

Edgar Allen Poetry

Yesterday was not Friday but I still had to make my way up to Harrison. I had an appointment with Loran to help me with my Medicaid recertification. The paperwork is not simple, they make you jump through hoops. I was very glad for the help, it was well worth the trip up there. I […]

Citizen Idiot

How did it get so late? Oh yeah, that time thing; it even passes when I’m taking a nap. I hate this not getting enough sleep business. Enough of that, I have a tale to tell. It’s full of sound and fury and told by an idiot. When I left the house I knew that […]

Bobtown Garden City

Last night I went to see Bobtown so I have something to write about. I suspect only My Most Loyal Gentle Readers enjoy when I philosophize. I’d love to hear that I was wrong about that. I do know it’s easier to write about things I did. It didn’t used to be that way; it […]

The Tale of Dan and the Idiot Story

I slept away the morning and now I’m rushed for time. I’m going to see Dar tonight at her annual Boxing Day show, which is not on Boxing Day; by tradition I’m the first one on the line. I woke up at a normal hour, 9:30, but almost immediately fell asleep in my chair for […]

Alan LX

Living in the Bronx means taking a trek most days. Yesterday’s was an extra long one to Greenvale Long Island. What would bring me out to that suburban backwater? Alan’s surprise 60th birthday party. I had tickets to see Vienna Teng and Jean Rohe was doing a co-bill with Rachael Kilgore but they’ll all play […]

Home Game

I went out to see Carolann Solebello and Joe Iadanzalast night so I have something to write about. See the sacrifices I make for My Gentle Readers? When I got there Sharon was surprised, she thought I said I couldn’t make it. I was insulted, there is no way that I’m missing Carolann and Joe […]

Keep Dilbert, I’ll Take Elbert

The WFUV member drive is over and I’m back to writing. It was a tough week for me; I was always on the verge of falling sleep, right now I’m on the verge of falling asleep. The only time I wasn’t in danger of falling asleep was when I was in bed trying to go […]
