no sweat!
Is it still too soon for COVID nostalgia? After all, it’s over 6 years since Gretch shut all us Michiganders out of rakes, gardening supplies, and American flags. I burned my last mask two years after that (1). The changes to our lives have been legion, and so much seems to have become permanent. Nostalgia for the days beforeContinue reading “no sweat!”
woe, woe, woe…
If George W. Bush were still commenting on social issues, he might say “is our children nuts?” With reports of 15% of children 10-19, globally, experiencing a mental illness, according to the WHO (1), and 12 million American adolescents on psychotropic medications (2), ya gotta wonder. Everything from family breakup, COVID, cell phones, the economy, and globalContinue reading “woe, woe, woe…”
Ovis aries hepar! curried!!
How did I get this chunk of lamb liver and what can I do with it? It all comes from working in a place with many multiply-talented young people. My young colleague Michelle arrived in AA with a PhD on top of her medical degree and early success in the lab, parlaying it all into her positionContinue reading “Ovis aries hepar! curried!!”
cowabunga!
I walk with quite a limp these days, and use a cane. My favorite retort to those who notice and ask, is “surfing injury”. Not a consequence of those many miles pounded in as I was pulled into the running craze, although I did curtail that activity because of achy knees. My formerly pit pat retirement left meContinue reading “cowabunga!”
show-off update
3 years and several months ago, I posted a guide to all the seals you might see at the bottom of an e-mail from me, which then looked like as follows (1) I titled it “show-off” as there seemed to be an element of boasting about all the institutions with which I’d been associated. But, ifContinue reading “show-off update”
Mads
When I left behind my hippie-wannabe pseudo-intellectual ways as I left Ann Arbor for the first time, I also left behind my taste for foreign movies (called “international” these days). It was the mid-70s and Hollywood was still in its heyday, with Star Wars, Bonnie and Clyde, Flashdance, Carrie, Alien, Taxi Driver, Chinatown, The Exorcist, FrenchContinue reading “Mads”
High, Semi-dry, January
I never managed to make sweet, willowy, athletic Denise my girlfriend. We went our separate ways after graduation, she snaring Kevin – a U-M educated lawyer and all-around good guy – while I lucked into Kathy. My reacquaintance with old ‘burg friends included Kevin and Denise, now a dear friend once again. It was from Denise that IContinue reading “High, Semi-dry, January”
NAC me up Joe
“I feel bad for people who don’t drink. When they wake up in the morning, that’s as good as they’re going to feel all day.” — Frank Sinatra “I’m not saying everyone should drink, it just worked for me” – Jackie Gleason “Alcohol doesn’t solve any problems, neither does milk”. unknown origin, but it had its ownContinue reading “NAC me up Joe”
In the year 2525 (less 1/2 a millennium)
Hope youse had a Merry Christmas! Remember, this is just the beginning, if you play your cards right (1). Boxing Day has its own traditions, like me writing this Christmas letter. Congratulations to you boomers out there who caught that reference in the title to Zager & Evans’ ’69 hit (2). Listening to those apocalyptic 60s songs –Continue reading “In the year 2525 (less 1/2 a millennium)”
