Most of you who know me know of my friend Paul Moor. He and I met online in a writers group back in the early 90s.
In February on the first, I think it was, he suffered a stroke that left him aphasic and unsteady. His aphasia has improved considerably and even surprisingly already. [...]
Today is the 8th anniversary of the day I first put pen to pixel and created this blog. It’s been hosted at different locations from time to time, but it has been semi-continuously updated since that first Father’s Day in 2001. My one-year hiatus last year will be the subject of a book about what [...]

Just to update those of you who pay occasional attention to this web site, I’m now back after taking a month off from blogging. Also today marks 90 smoke-free days. With each passing day not smoking my pipe becomes easier, but lest I be complacent, I know that the only thing that matters [...]
In an email exchange this morning with my friend Juan, who recently celebrated turning 60, he commented that he had been somewhat concerned about me because he noticed that I hadn’t updated my blog in “many days.” He is right of course in a manner of speaking , but in another way he is [...]
If any of you are still checking this weblog, you’ll have noticed that I haven’t posted anything new here in a couple of weeks. I haven’t been incarcerated, or hospitalized, and I am not in a coma, I’m pleased to report, but I just haven’t felt up to posting anything, and the longer I have [...]
