As I’m writing this, it’s Friday, June 27th. And y’all. It’s been a week. I could use several expletives to describe the weather this week, most of which include references to the devil and the home in which he lives. We have also been on the struggle bus as far as technology is concerned in

I recently had the opportunity to touch base with Coach Ron Insinger. We had a fun chat before a summer league game on Monday. I wrote a great piece on 50 years of the CI CAMP, but… Steph just called and asked for my stuff. Wait? What? My email never went. My article was gone.

As one film-fan friend and I made a very worthwhile drive all the way to State College for The Life of Chuck, our rambling conversation lamented the ongoing onslaught of sequels, remakes and franchise spin-offs. With so many dreary and derivative offerings, it sometimes seems like Hollywood no longer wants to take chances. But lo

Both my wife Debbie and I had chaotic 70th birthday parties.

I’m not the best at keeping up with regular manicures, even though I do enjoy following nail trends. So, this season, I’m intrigued by and think trying out the no-makeup manicure is quite practical and sustainable.
