Bosch Is Back!

The seventh and final season of Bosch made its debut last night on Amazon. I've written a couple of times about how much our family enjoyed this detective show set in L.A. One of those posts featured The Music of Detective Harry Bosch, since on the show Bosch is a big fan of jazz music. … Continue reading Bosch Is Back!

Thank You, Haverford College!

One of our favorite places to walk is a 2.2-mile nature trail at nearby Haverford College. Unfortunately, the campus had been closed to visitors this past year, which meant no nature trail. But then on June 1, the college announced that visitors would be permitted back on campus with some restrictions. However, there were no … Continue reading Thank You, Haverford College!

Now These Are My Kind of Jeans…

Ever since I broke my wrists last November, I don't think I've worn a pair of jeans. I got in the habit of wearing a pair of warm-ups because they were much easier to get on. So for the past several months, I've either worn a pair of khakis for work, or a pair of … Continue reading Now These Are My Kind of Jeans…

How Could I Have Missed This One?

Our first dog's name was Cagney. My password for many years included some version of Cagney. One of my all-time favorite movies, Yankee Doodle Dandy, starred James Cagney. I thoroughly enjoyed reading Cagney by Cagney, his autobiography. Hopefully, you get the point, I am a big fan of the talented James "Jimmy" Cagney. (And by … Continue reading How Could I Have Missed This One?

Blah blah blah, blah blah blah, blah blah blah, BOO!!!!!!!

Did it work? Did the headline scare you enough to get rid of your hiccups? For some people, hiccups are just a minor occasional annoyance that might last for a few minutes. I'm sure we've all tried various tricks like blowing into a paper bag, hyperventilating, or being scared by someone. But for other people, … Continue reading Blah blah blah, blah blah blah, blah blah blah, BOO!!!!!!!

Music Monday: A Compilation of the Best Frontmen/Lead Singers of All Time

As I was watching a Fleetwood Mac video with Stevie Nicks leading the way, I thought to myself, 'I would pick her as the top "frontman" for a band'. Her voice, her looks, her dress, her swagger - she's got it all. I'll include a couple of her videos at the end. So that got … Continue reading Music Monday: A Compilation of the Best Frontmen/Lead Singers of All Time

The Secret to Putting in Golf

Today was our annual Father's Day mini-golf outing. The weather was right up my alley - hot and humid. And it was one of my best rounds ever; it was the first time I had two holes-in-one in one round on this course. (And in a video chat with our sons later we discussed what … Continue reading The Secret to Putting in Golf

Thank You, Fellow Bloggers!

The other day I wrote a post about how I was in a rut with my blog, feeling like I had run out of ideas. But then a few bloggers responded with some suggestions, and this post is a direct result of one of those suggestions. Two separate bloggers (Searching for a Side Hustle with … Continue reading Thank You, Fellow Bloggers!

I Knew It Was Good, but I Didn’t Know It Was Also Good for You

It usually happens every summer. I get obsessed with watermelon, and it just kicked in again this past week. It is my favorite fruit, and it just seems to go hand in hand with summer, like Mungo Jerry. But little did I know how good it was for your health. Here are nine benefits of … Continue reading I Knew It Was Good, but I Didn’t Know It Was Also Good for You

I’m In a Rut

The past week or so it has been hard to come up with things to write about for my blog. As a result, some of the topics I have come up with are quite dull. Well, to be more precise duller than usual. As I was thinking of what I could do to get out … Continue reading I’m In a Rut
