If you are living in Pennsylvania, North Carolina, Florida or Ohio you already know and likely are tired of all the messaging that controls the airwaves, your social media feeds, your email and US Mailbox. The Senate is up for grabs this November. Battleground states mentioned above are besieged by PAC and super-PAC money. Is…
Rochester, NY— It was a good night to be out in the big City of Rochester with Nancy and Sarah. There was some wine to drink, squid and funghi to eat and gelato to desert upon. Stories were told, memories were made and sirens were sounded as we were on the edge of Mt. Hope…
Some of you may recall me saying we were in for a marathon of unknown when Covid-19 came to the world. Globally the number is at 6 million, while the US is almost at 1 million. In fifty years everybody will be asking why didn’t we learn from 1918? Oh by the way Tim says…
On this last day in 2021, I look back at the good and bad of the year. Phoebe and I definitely miss having Crosby around for our morning belly rubs, walks in Highland Park, long car rides and laying around on the deck. We did set an action plan in place to connect with nature,…
The traditional Mexican holiday that honors the dead is also referred to by the Roman Catholic Church in the United States as All Souls Day. It just happens on this day we celebrate the Birthday of P.A. Patsy A. Caruso was born in Monessen on Nov. 1, 1905, a son of the late Charles and…
In 2021 Memorial Day in the United States of America is a good time for a pause. We can reflect on the sacrifices made by the men, women, BIPOC, API, and canines that have served in our military for various wars, conflicts, political commitments and corporately encouraged wars. We must also reflect on what happened…
What do you say to yourself each morning? Dear Evan Hansen today is going to be a good day? @iamicaniwillido? Give yourself room to bloom? Our Father Who Art in Heaven? I welcome any tools that come to me to add to my toolbelt? – Dear Evan Hansen, Christine D’Ercole, The Heart Revival, Luke 11:2,…
We were landing in Cancun for a week of Dave Matthews and Tim Reynolds. Celebrate we will.
I know, I know, I know . . .a music video from the Squirrel Nut Zippers during this dark time is pretty dark, so let’s go back to when I went to see Squirrel Nut Zipper’s and realized it was before I met my concert-wife. I guess with all the news around Covid-19 forcing the…
As of this weekend I’ve now been able to SUP in the Allegheny for five consecutive months. I’ve pretty much decided that the only soccer I’ll be doing in 2020 is outdoor with my electronic whistle due to Covid-19. Why would I want to blow a whistle in the middle of a global pandemic? After…
As I’ve been driving around Butler, Armstrong and Clarion and keep seeing these Trump/Pence signs that say God, Guns and Country. Everytime I see that sign I keep hearing a certain song in my head. . . It’s amazing how David J. Matthews predicted the world of Donald J. Trump.
If you don’t put the plug in all the way . . . Or if people drive their wake boat less than 60ft from shore on a residential stretch. . Let’s just say sometimes you can run into un-planned items and have to roll with them. Otherwise you’d just be digging a ditch.
If the COVID-19 Pandemic were not enough the Gulf of Mexico has not one but two hurricanes/tropical storms making land fall in the same week. While I’ve already made up my electorate mind, I’m still watching Trumpalooza for the same reason some people watch NASCAR. Luckily DMB Drive In gave me a nice distraction from…
Before you go off the deep end with what the Minneapolis City Council is doing, understand that everybody is doing what they lawfully can do. If you’ve never been to Camden, it was a very interesting city back in the 2008 window. Whitney and I were basically whisked between parking and the concert venue and…
Remembering we began the same, we lose our way in fean and pain, oh Joy. . .
