Arthur, owner of two chocolate labs – Cooper named after Cooperstown and Abner named after Abner Doubleday – and father of sixteen month old, Shea – not named after Shea Stadium, just left after spending the morning here installing Verizon FIOS or fibre optic cable. Now I’m as fast as La Rad at 15 mbps […]
Adam sent me this link. One of the better blogs around, I think. We never would have left early had she been onstage reciting 10$ For Groceries.
Our conversation as I drove Matthew to school this morning: Matthew: “A kid at school owes me five bucksâ€. Me: “Why does he owe you five bucksâ€.

Ernest’s fingerprints were everywhere. As the photo shows, I […]

I’m working again. My sister-in-law, Susan, has returned to her new life in Minnesota, and the imaginary but oft-used brake pedal on the passenger side of the truck, where Diane sits? Gone. It is the dead of winter but a new year. I climb solid wooden steps and pause at the door to the red-framed […]

The dinner theater production was their daughter, Molly’s, idea, but she was back in school in New York and couldn’t accompany them. It wasn’t until we’d picked the best seats, […]
