• Forgettable – Only With Alzheimer’s

    Spending time with Daniel Schoen is never forgettable. Dangerous, probably. Predictable, hardly. Legal, mostly. Forgettable – only with Alzheimer’s. What was I saying? Daniel picked me up on Wednesday to play in SW Colorado. He arrived in his hell-bound motorhome filled to the roof mounted satellite antenna with diesel, food, and a ticket home –…

  • Haiti – The Good, the Bad, and the Ugly

    I just returned from another Haiti trip. Abnormality abounds. The Good: It was the perfect 9-day sabbatical. It consisted of hot yoga, being serenaded during a moonlight swim, and afterwards lounging in the water while listening to the birds sing.

  • Damage: The Good, the Bad, and the Ugly

    The Good: A great read, easily one of the best by Dick or Felix Francis. Lots of fun horse and horse racing facts mixed in what a good thriller. The Bad: It seemed to end too quickly – abrupt really. Maybe that just shows I liked it a lot and didn’t want it to end?…

  • Tripwire: The Good, the Bad, and the Ugly

    The Good: Unlike the rest of the reading world, I’m new to Reacher. I hear the books improve the more you read. Not that you could prove that by this one. The Bad: A few things here – #3 SPOILER ALERT! Skip it if you need to as it gives something away. 1 – The…
