I’m going home in a couple weeks. Home for me is Sidney, New York. Population: around 5,000. I love my hometown. Although I moved away 16 years ago just after finishing graduate school, I have many fond memories of Sidney and I miss so many things about it. […]
This is a view of the Yale Alumni Magazine that was in my mail today. Right address, wrong name. I’m a SUNY Cortland grad, thank you very much. Frankly, I’m offended that this rubbish showed up in my mail box and soiled my junk mail with its Ivy […]
This is a view of our new cat. She’s about 5 weeks old and she’s a girl. She doesn’t have a name yet because we can’t decide what to name her. But just look at that face and tell me you don’t want to squeeze her. I mean, […]
This is a view of the 2012 Fiat 500 from earlier today. Just when I thought the Smart Car, made by the French and Germans, was going to die a quick and painless death, the Italians had to go and try to one-up them. Damn Europeans. Merde! (that […]

This is a view of a San Francisco Giants fan at last night’s Giants vs. Padres game from lovely Petco Park in gorgeous and beautiful San Diego, CA. Like The Skippers clam chowder, San Diego has proclaimed itself “America’s Finest City”. It’s hard for me to disagree. My […]
This is a view of a fire hydrant I saw at lunchtime today somewhere in Stamford, CT. Part of me doesn’t want to say where I saw this so I don’t rat anyone out, but another part of me feels like I should be a good citizen and […]
This is a view of the funniest thing I saw all day. It was a slow day, but even on an exciting day, this picture would’ve made me laugh. It’s how my mind works. Today was my first day back to work from vacation. I came back to […]
This is a view of exactly what I was looking for once I knew we were going to Cape Cod as part of our summer vacation. A classic seafood house right on the water with the second-floor open-air deck overlooking the Atlantic Ocean. Just one fisherman’s platter with […]
