  • Looks like business as usual in New York City

    You look at what Governor Cuomo is saying, and especially Mayor De Blasio, and you’d think that death is literally stalking the streets, as if it would be like this if you went outside: But instead, it’s almost like nothing is going on at all. I think people are mostly not traveling out of their…

  • Finding things to do while stuck at home during the coronapocalypse

    De Blasio was throwing around the idea that there might be a “shelter in place order”, basically restricting all movement except essential services I guess, but Cuomo said De Blasio was basically full of crap and there was no such plan. Apparently, shutting down New York City is off the table, probably more for logistical…

  • A little more corona madness

    I was downtown in the East Village this afternoon. I was a little excited to see what was happening down there. I also had to get a power cable we need for a work monitor and I wanted to drop some stuff off at my Mom’s place. I keep going outside with this expectation that…

    I’m not sure what I expected to see outside, but it was fairly normal, just quiet and almost deserted compared to usual.

    To be ignorant of the lives of the most celebrated men of antiquity is to continue in a state of childhood all our days. Plutarch

  • Another year…

    So, I’m going to try to be a bit more consistent here, even if what I’m posting is something that is only going to matter to me. I’m not trying to be a news outlet. Just a me outlet.

  • Evening Cycling – Central Park

    I’ve been trying to do a lot more exercise this year. Most of that has been cycling because it’s easy on the knees and that’s important when you’re trying to lose weight. I’m going to put more emphasis on running this month. I have a 10-mile run coming up at the end of next month.…

  • Thumper: December 27, 2008 – August 3, 2019

    Thumper was a blessing on our lives and helped us both through some tough times and became the spark of joy that lit up our home. The apartment feels empty without her.
