I will not lie: it took me longer to come up with that title than it did to write the article. I am not even sure it conveys the right meaning I intended (is it “polysyllabic” or “poly-syllabic”? Is that even a word?). But, as you read the article,...

Movie Review: St. Vincent
It was a Netflix night last night and I decided to watch something different. Recently, I have been stuck on Law and Order: SVU and The Twilight Zone (the original series), but I did not feel like those shows. I did not have anything to do so I decided...

Always Treat It Like Something Special…Because She’s Special
Josie and I got into a fight. It is pretty serious though we did not break up yet (and I am not sure we are going to. There are a lot of feelings). It was my fault. I made a mistake. I did not make THE mistake (cheating or...

Addiction Sucks…Especially When It Makes You Fat
I was cruising through Twitter today, looking for my next blog topic. I had not posted anything serious lately, so I thought I would be able to find something political online. I was munching on some pretzels someone had bought from Costco. I like munching on something when researching...

An Action of Love, Passion and Fun: The Single Column Tie
I love sex. Most people do. But I love wild sex. Four years ago, I met someone who was really shy and very sweet. I thought she was going to one I would have to marry before I was allowed to kiss her on the cheek. But, one night,...

Vacation Time: Big Bear Trip, Day 2
On the second day of our Big Bear trip, we were faced with the age old question we have all been faced with at one time or another: Should we go skiing or snow boarding? We were struggling with this question for weeks. We had skied before and knew...

A Milestone for Logan: The Bris
My daughter texted me last Friday and invited me to come to Logan’s (my new grandson) Bris. The ceremony was going to be held at my son-in-law’s parents’ house. What was odd was that it was going to be on Tuesday evening. I sighed at this. I live in...

Vacation Time: Big Bear Trip, Day 1, Part 2
To my relief, we never needed chains. In fact, the car we rented was already all wheel drive and we did not even need chains. But I did not know that at the time. All I did for the first few minutes is check the road reports and watch...

I am a Grandfather…Wow…
I have had only five hours sleep in the last two days. I am exhausted. But this needs to come out (even as simply as this). My daughter Nikki and my son-in-law, Josh (the best any father could ever hope for), gave me my first grandchild: a boy named...

Vacation Time: Big Bear Trip, Day 1, Part 1
February is a big month. First, Valentine’s Day, now a trip to Big Bear in the Angeles Forest, California. Now, this is a big deal for me. Josie and I have been together for a year and a half and I have yet to go anywhere with her family....
