  Upstairs, in the-room-that-used-to-be-my-office, there is a barcode scanner that Fuzzy ‘liberated’ from his office a few years ago, when they were purging old equipment. Every so often, I get a bug about cataloging all of our books (many...

  I can’t begin to offer a solution to the nation’s need for a viable low cost health insurance program, but I can tell you this: musicals make me happy, and happy people are generally healthier than not. We got home from seeing the tourin...

  I confess, I hadn’t heard of him until last week, but when our church ran one of his tamer videos as our “dramatic moment” recently, I was instantly hooked. Tonight, he performed some of his old stuff, as well as three new songs, an...

  Since it’s Thursday, I’m allowed to whine and rant in my blog. Really. While I am mostly over whatever upper respiratory ailment it was that has been lingering in my system for the last two weeks, I am essentially voiceless. Oh, I was ab...

  On the first day of a new year, it seems fitting to include music in a post. The song, “You Are the New Day,” is by the Kings Singers. I had the privilege of attending a brown-bag lunch with them when I was in high school, and I’ve ...

  I don’t write about religion or faith all that often. I write about specific things encountered in various churches, and of people associated with them, but I’m hesitant to share my own beliefs here for various reasons. I should preface t...

  One night, we met at neighbor's house for homemade Rompope (rum, sugar cane, and I don't know what else, but it makes egg nog seem like water, it's so potent), and carol singing. At least four languages were represented, and most of us could sort of ...
