Last night I went to a training session to be an Elizabeth Warren volunteer. You’ll be hearing a lot more about Liz on Wise Madness and my Facebook and Instagram accounts. Notice that she’s now Liz; she’s gone straight from a last name to a nickname. I’m more comfortable supporting Liz than Warren especially as […]

Last night I went to the big Elizabeth Warren rally at Washington Square Park. It ostensibly started at 7 but they announced that doors were at 4. Doors at Washington Square Park? Apparently the closed off the park as they set up. You had to register or check in to go. I registered as soon […]
Last night I went to the Met game. I finally go to see the team’s best pitcher and player, Jacob deGrom. The Mets don’t score much for deGrom, which is just luck, he’s a good hitter so you’d expect them to score more. That held up yesterday, the Metropolitans scored but three runs, good thing […]
Today’s blog is going to be the playlist of songs to be played at my presidential campaign rallies. I haven’t registered as a candidate, I have made no formal announcement of running, have no staff, and no funds, but I figured that the music was a good place to start planning my campaign. Everything else […]
I want to talk about choosing a president. I’m going to go about it in a round about way, retracing my mental steps. It starts with baseball. Everything you need to know you can learn from baseball.
I almost let the heat stop me but I went out for my walk yesterday. I left late, close to 7 PM. There are two advantages to that, one it’s cooler, two there is little risk of sunburn. Only mad dogs and Englishmen go out in the noonday sun. I went on the Bronx Forest […]
Last night I made an expedition to Fort Greene to see Carolann Solebello, Paul Sachs, and Karyn Oliver. It’s part of a new series that Carolann and Devlin (I write devil first every time) Miles are running at the Putnam’s Pub and Cooker; it’s called Live From the Vault Songwriter’s Sessions. As a bonus I […]
I ended up staying in last night. Just as I was making my final decision it started pouring. I hate being a wimp but I stayed home. I was going to see Miss Tess at Rockwood and part of what put me on the fence was the cost. Today she announced that she is doing […]
The Warren Commission
Just as I was about to start writing the outside bell rang. I went to the buzzer and asked, “Who is it?” The response was, “Somebody open the door.” I hope nobody let him in, I didn’t. Doesn’t that defeat the entire purpose of having to buzz people in? He didn’t even think it necessary […]
