B-Ing Positive
I’ve written quite a bit about what has been going wrong in my world and the world at large IMHO of late, frequently looking back at happier and more influential times for context and support. Today I’m going to try and look at the present and future for positivity with examples of how dreams can

Sources Say: Bunnies Have Tales
A&E premiered the new documentary series SECRETS OF PLAYBOY earlier this week. It had been promoted for weeks and given some of the people I’ve been blessed with knowing of late I had more than a passing interest in seeing it. Apparently, I wasn’t alone; the first two episodes reached over 1.4 million viewers in

Number, Please (And Read The Find Print)
THE number was released to the media recently for the tenth consecutive year.

Two Out of Three Ain’t Good
Good Lord, 2022. Does every weekend of yours HAVE to start out with multiple deaths that dominate my social media timelines???! Yesterday I woke up to the news that both Meat Loaf and Louie Anderson had both left this world, both sizable talents who didn’t quite make three-quarters of a century. Like so many of my

Free. At Last.
I’ve previously written about what it was like to spend Christmas 2019 recovering from a cholecystectomy (gall bladder surgery, to those who may be polysyllyabically challenged), My liver had been damaged by the sepsis attack that I had, and post surgery, I had to have a drainage bag attached to my right side in order

Number please
Yesterday I very briefly caught a display ad on a trade site that signaled that my former colleagues at Sony were very quietly making available weekly episodes of THE GOOD DOCTOR and S.W.A.T. to local television stations in the fall of 2022. These days, the repeats of any television program being made available to over-the-air
