Cutting Remarks

I teased what happened yesterday on Facebook. Now to tell you the bloody details. I came home from school to have a quick turnaround until the Knick game. When I got home I realized that I forgot to freeze the bagels I had bought the day before. Needless to say, they were very hard. That […]

Don’t Call FEMA for This Disaster

Good morning Vietnam. Don’t ask me why but that phrase often comes to my head whenI start blogging or recording Gord’s Gold. The other thing I want to say is. “Good Evening Mr. and Mrs. America, and All the Ships at Sea.” That is from way before my time but people were riffing on it […]

Katie’s Lobster Lawyer

Saturday night I went to a fantastic show, Katie Martucci (marr-too-chee) and Akie Bermiss (burr-meese). I wanted to make that the lede before I explained why I haven’t been writing. Part of it was being busy but part was a bedeviled computer. It is now in the shop getting a new keyboard. Part of it […]

Red Mill

I went to the theater! I do not do that enough. Alison and I have for years gotten together once a year to see a Broadway show. We haven’t since COVID-19. Wednesday, we made it happen. I was able to get tickets to Moulin Rouge for the matinee. I knew almost nothing about the show. […]

Talisk and the Tear in Spacetime

It’s 10:25 PM and I finally finished today’s quota of procrastination. I can’t afford to fall further behind in my blogging, so I better start writing. This is my no work an all play week and I’m taking full advantage of it. Last night I saw the Scottish band Talisk at City Winery. This was […]

Out of the Gas Range and into the Air Fryer

I don’t write and things happen. Let’s set the wayback machine to February 14, 2023, the place Rockwood Music Hall Stage 3. Hey Mr. Peabody, why then? That’s when John Platt presented the most recent edition of On Your Radar Sherman. I am still obsessed with 60-year-old cartoons.  I have a routine now for OYR […]

Chocolate and a Contralto

I’m posting again, give me a cookie! Today is the best day ever. Why? It’s Valentine’s Day. No, that does not mean I have a Valentine. As has happened every year of my life I’m alone on Valentine’s Day. I’m not a misanthrope, not having someone special is not a good thing. So why is […]

The Downfall of the Lord of the Mondays and the Return of the Air Fryer

Some Mondays are more Monday than others or as David put it; “I hate it when Friday the 13th falls on a Monday.” I left the house this morning but had to go back because I realized I didn’t have my coffee. I got on the subway and went to do my usual morning routines […]
