Have you seen CELTIC TIGER starring Michael Flatley “shot on location in Budapest”? Do you want to be energized and wonderfully entertained? Then you must get the DVD. Seriously! Michael Flatley has brought this art form to a very high level. And all of the dancers are fantastic. I don’t know if you can find [...]
The one thing about life that’s so amazing, among many other things, is that, at any one time, millions upon millions of people are simultaneously living entirely different lives. For instance, the World Series and the fires in California occurred within the same time frame which meant that in one area people were playing ball, [...]
Last night I locked myself out of my apartment building. I came back from having dinner with a friend, put my things on a chair, and picked up a bag to place outside for the garbage collection. The interesting part came when I looked in the little Japanese purse I use as a key holder [...]
I still don’t understand what’s happening with the Yankees. What I do understand is that things get complicated when there’s money, power and egos at stake. Joe Torre was making 7.5 million a year for managing a baseball team – the Yankees. Fine, if that’s what they want to pay him. Then last Thursday, because [...]
I logged on to my computer and read a caption about Uma Thurman’s dress. I happen to like her acting, she seems to be a woman of substance, and doesn’t look as if she’d hurt anyone. Sensationalizing a situation by taking a picture of her so that a silly “story” sells appears to be the [...]

I’m [...]
The Omega catalog has page after page of, I was going to say workshops, seminars, courses, but what they really offer are all kinds of people teaching all kinds of things that will stretch you mind, body and spirit in all kinds of ways. There, that’s what I really want to say. Omega is located [...]
Is there an artist lurking somewhere in you? I ask because where I am are many artists and their works. It could have you think that if you went to an art store and purchased all those magnificent colors and brushes, along with an easel, and found your spot of light, you could paint your [...]
Monday, because it’s the beginning of the work week for some, reminds me of beginnings as it applies to daily life. There’s the beginning of life, the beginning of death, the beginning of a new business or a new job. There’s the beginning of a marriage, or the beginning of thoughts of a divorce. It [...]
My friend has a cough, a dry, unrelenting kind of cough. It’s the kind of cough that leaves her feeling okay at home, but the minute she steps outside it seems to yell for attention. I had it once for a long time years ago. I know this cough. Since then I’ve found (well, actually [...]
