Just across Liberty Road, the hawk is circling– her wings hardly moving; the tips adjusting while the hunter dips and rises, riding the currents of air created by the sun, the breeze, and the exhaust of the passing cars. Beneath the hawk, on the other side of Liberty Road is a church with a […]
I’m reading a fascinating book by Jim Holt entitled “Why Does The World Exist?” He subtitled it “An Existential Detective Story.” Check it out–it’s a great read. Anyway, I came across a section in the book where the author says, “I thought to myself…” Well, I though (to myself) how many times have we heard […]
The chorus of crickets begins its song. There are no words (that I know of) but their song calls the birds– the small grey ones with no tails. They gather on the lawn looking for seeds that will soon be washed away and knowing that later the larger birds will come looking for worms. […]
I took a week off (yes, I know it’s been much longer than that for the blog), and spent a lot of time doing very little but hanging out with my wife and watching the Olympics. We ended up watching a lot of sports that I, quite frankly, never took an interest in, but I […]
It was with great sadness that I received the news of the passing of the great Ray Bradbury. He was, without a doubt, one of the most imaginative, eloquent, and interesting writers of the 20th century, and his influence has reached far and wide, and will continue to do so. I read “The Martian Chronicles” […]
After an amazing 17 inning game yesterday, the Orioles are able to boast the best record in the majors, and is the only team still in single digits in the loss column. It was a wild ride yesterday, with the winning pitcher (Chris Davis) being a 1st baseman. It was the first time since 1925 […]
Ok, so I’m not a TRUE Luddite. I embrace technology. Let’s face it–you have to. The world won’t wait for you to catch up to it. I actually like a lot of technology. That being said, I find it alarming that there have been reports of school boards who question the need of teaching penmanship […]
Broadcasters and engineers somehow manage to survive alongside each other, although they come from two different worlds. I remember when I was still in the Navy, while assigned to USS NEW JERSEY (BB-62) we had the latest Self-contained Closed-Circuit TV system in the fleet–the “Super-SITE.” I had a wonderful engineer, a Chief Petty Officer named […]
Well, the big lottery drawing has come and gone, and once again, I didn’t win. That’s OK. Someone from our state did have the winning numbers, and will split the huge jackpot with 2 others. That makes it about 213 million bucks each. Not a bad haul. I do play the lottery every week. I […]
Brahms set very high standards for himself. It was not uncommon for him to write a complete work, a string quartet, for example, only to destroy it because it felt it wasn’t up to his standards. Any other composer would have been proud to have written music that he threw away, and that, alas, we […]
