I was lying in bed this morning thinking of my hometown of Brewster, New York. It seems that every time I do this, my recollection of waking up to sunshine some time in July, only to walk out the front door onto the sidewalk, comes to mind. I can recall doing this over and over […]
Ramblings & Opinion
Some of my best posts can be found in this category. I ramble and I opine. That's what I do. I absolutely try to stay away from politics though. There's no faster method for losing a reader than to offer a political opinion - on anything. Otherwise, I discuss philosophy, books that I've read, my thoughts on the state of the world, some passive aggressive thoughts and ideas regarding friends of mine, wonderful stories woven into lessons I feel I need to share, as well as other silly topics that I'm sure no one else on the planet cares about besides me.
The Funniest Things That Ever Happened in my Life
I was talking to a friend last week when I told him about some old posts I wrote a long time ago. If I remember correctly, they were written in 2007 and 2008. Boy, I’ve been doing this a while. Jeesh… Anyway, I told me friend that the posts had to do with the funniest […]
The Wonderful Introvert
I found a video about a month ago and had intended to write a post about it, but apparently life got in the way. I began doing other things and unfortunately closed the browser window I had the page saved in. Last night, while searching through various TED talks, I stumbled across the video once […]
I Have Discovered My Life Goal
With only one day to spare, I have come to a decision. I’ve finally discovered, and admitted to myself, my life goal. The goal I’d like to die having completed. Now, I didn’t just come to this decision this morning. I’ve moved around for years, visiting a number of places around our country, loving, hating […]
An Allegory Of Happiness
Among other things, I did a lot of work yesterday. I’ve been plodding away at the same project I mentioned I started about six months ago. It’s yet to bear fruit. I have reserved confidence that it still may. And if it does, the fog will lift and I’ll think again once more. During an […]
Life Is a Series of Course Corrections
It’s funny, every time Summer rolls around, I dream of taking very long vacations while snowmobiling in the Arctic and every time Winter rolls around, I dream of disappearing to some tropical island while laying on the beach all day. Unfortunately, I’m a forgetful person. I forget about about the humidity that Summer brings and […]
After Thursday Night’s Class
I’ve been having difficulty writing anything with much true “insight” on this blog lately. It seems that my motivation peaks directly after class, which is usually around 9:15PM, and then fades considerably every minute thereafter. I’ve said time and time again (as I did just last night) that I’ll post the hundred or so thoughts […]
An Update On This Whole Man and Crocs Thing
I don’t want to beat a dead horse here, but I seriously underestimated popular sentiment when it comes to this Crocs and dudes thing. I mean, just yesterday I was a lonely guy living in Connecticut who happened to be wearing a pair of rubber shoes – but today – BAM – public enemy number […]
Men Who Wear Crocs
A few weeks ago, I had a little problem. I don’t have it anymore because I solved it, but up until a few weeks ago, it was driving me crazy. I like to wear slippers. No, not the big fuzzy ones that have stuffed animals attached to the fronts, but regular old, plain Jane slippers. […]
Self-Defeating Statements
A few days ago, I took a trip out to Martha’s Vineyard. We left Rhode Island on a ferry and arrived at the Vineyard about an hour and forty minutes later. It was a nice day. On the ferry, there were all sorts of characters. I’m sure you can imagine the bunch. From the golfers […]
