I noticed a tremendous uptick in my blog stats just a bit ago. It went from a slow spring-to-summer to what-the-heck in one day. And stayed way higher than usual since. I’m trying to figure out why. Lots of Jits are going to my home page. And then they are spreading out to many, many…
My friend Cordelia’s Mom Still was spurred to rerun a column by our cherished guest blogger Paul Curran, the prolific WordPress presence who managed to nourish our souls from various host platforms before he left our world in October 2016. I marveled again at his wisdom as I read, then I shook my head and…
Oh, how I thought I had the perfect setup. This iPad Pro and its Apple keyboard seemed made for each other. Out of the box from the Apple store they’d come. Snap! Together they went with that magnetic pull. Tap, tap, tap went my fingers. But now, in the next calendar year and several IOS…
A movie about concussions is coming to a theater near you on Christmas Day. Will Smith figures that the subject is important enough that he hung his star on it. I’ve seen the trailers for Concussion on the big screen. I’m a football fan, have been my whole life. Yet I’ve become increasingly concerned about…
With bowling leagues starting the ball rolling for the new season this past week, I thought an investigation into the alleys of the sport’s past was a good place to start for my monthly contribution this time around at BoFN.

We’re fortunate enough again this Sunday to host the weekly Cuppa column from my Canadian friend Paul Curran while usual host Willow takes a bit of a break at her place across the pond at willowdot21. As usual, Paul entertains and educates with his words and ways. Take it away, Paul. If We Were Having…
How often do the worlds of the New York Mets and Jerry Seinfeld collide? More than you’d think. The funny guy grew up on Long Island, a couple towns and a few years from me. He, too, has remained an avid Mets rooter. Remember first baseman Keith Hernandez showing up on Jerry’s sitcom on a…
My call of action for the Three-Day Quote Challenge came from Susanne Valenti. Make sure to check out the new blogger on the WordPress block. Thank you, Susanne. I’m going with quotes from literary characters from novelists dear to my heart. Relatable souls. In day two I dip into the lexicon of the protagnist of…
Susanne Valenti tapped me on the shoulder yesterday for the Three-Day Quote Challenge. She’s a new blogger on the WordPress block, and I liked what what I clicked over and saw. Why yes, and thank you, Susanne. The last time around this quote game, I chose lyrics from a few of my favorite songs. To…
Sometimes you have to break out of the mold. I did it Saturday, my mind straying from the music somewhat for a moment as I watched the great young band Lake Street Dive. And that lead to a bit of a departure in this month’s contribution over at the Blog of Funny Names, where my…
