WFH Diary – Well, there’s something you don’t see every day
NYC has issued guidelines for “Safer Sex and COVID-19“. One of the recommendations is to “Pick larger, more open, and well-ventilated spaces.” So, outdoors, basically. The old standby of yelling “Hey you two, get a room!” is another casualty of … Continue reading

Big thanks for March For Our Lives
This is to thank the students from Marjorie Stoneman Douglas and from around the world who protested today. It turns out you were marching for my life today, too. As a school kid I had epilepsy which was diagnosed, and … Continue reading

Qualifications for the office of President
There’s an old maxim that journalists are supposed to report the news not become the news. This was easier when the reporter was just a byline on their stories. With radio and then television came the need to like certain … Continue reading
