Wise Madness
Blogging daily isn’t a habit yet but it’s getting there; it’s part of my effort at self-care. Yesterday I returned to another element of what used to be my daily routine, I took a walk. My plan was to go to the New York Botanical Garden. When I got there, I discovered it was closed […]
Today marks the return of live music sags to Wise Madness; for many, this is what Wise Madness is about. Last night was special because I saw The Rainbow Girls for only the third time and the first time indoors. If you listen to my radio show Gord’s Gold, you’ll know that they are one […]
I’m blogging two days in a row; stop the presses! Today I had my dream come true, I became a real human boy! Huh? Did Gordon totally lose it? He thinks he’s Pinocchio? Don’t worry, I’m speaking metaphorically. Some time in July, I don’t know exactly when I lost my wallet. As I hardly ever […]
Hi My Gentle Readers, it’s been a while. I’m not sure if I can still do this but I’ll give it a try. I’m not going to write about a great concert I went to, or my adventure with my neighbor that got hostile when I asked him to not smoke in the hall, or […]
I’m trying something new, dedicating an entire entry to an album review. Is this thinking ahead? My last entry was my 2000-word opus on the essential albums of 2023. If I write reviews as the albums come in, I’ll save all that time at the end of the year. When I wrote the Essential Albums […]
Welcome to the end of the year My Gentle Readers and My Gentle Listeners. Even though I’m hardly writing I should write my Essential Albums of 2023 blog. Why Essential Albums, not Best or Top Albums? To emphasize that these are the albums that are essential to me. It’s a personal collection. It’s more than […]
Unbelievably I’m writing again. I have fallen behind even though I’m hardly doing anything. I’ll divide this entry into two parts, my health, for those who want to know how their friend is doing, and my musical adventure, for those who miss the Wise Madness view of the world. My Health: On Friday I had […]
Today you’ll get my promised medical update. My appointment was for 8:45 so I planned on getting up at 7:30. Instead I woke up at 6:50. My first thought was great, now I don’t have to rush. My second thought was that I was in a lot of pain and getting out of bed wouldn’t […]
Enough has happened to inspire me to write my first blog in six months. To be honest it’s mainly because I like the title. I had an eventful Thanksgiving. As my gentle readers know, every Thanksgiving I make a pilgrimage to Massachusetts to visit my once a year family. This year my friends decided to […]
I’ve done all sorts of things I haven’t written about. Today I’m going to finally blog and discuss none of them. Instead, I’ll talk about three interactions I had today going to and from the laundry room. My building is built oddly, when you take the elevator to the lobby you have to climb several […]
