When my friend Chris Cappello, affectionately referred to as “Square Seed” in the world of blog, called me to discuss the idea of being a contributing part of a melting pot of stories provided by various friends of his, I was, in no short order, humbled. It was […]
Please refer here for a quick refresher before continuing. This is a view of the other side of the street from earlier today. Apparently our hero continues to have issues with furniture slipping out of his buddy’s truck. Or his wife got sick of his shit and decided […]
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 the earthquake button in the elevator of the hotel I stayed at in San Diego this week. This time I am not concentrating my focus on the fireman’s helmet button on the right. No, I’m focusing my laser beam right on the “Earthquake” […]
This is a view of a Bacon Double Cheeseburger Basket from Hodad’s in San Diego, CA (Ocean Beach, to be more specific) that I devoured yesterday. If there were a contest to determine the best burger in America where I was judge and jury, there would be no […]
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 […]
