For Carrie
Carrie Fisher, gone five years yesterday. My friend Jason has some words: I’ve written a lot of dead-celebrity posts on this blog over the years. Some of them have been quite good, if I say so myself. And they’ve all … Continue reading
“And I’m so worried about the baggage retrieval system they’ve got at Heathrow”
UPDATED and CLARIFIED below! So, the trip home from Hawaii was supposed to go like this: December 23: Board plane at HNL, about 12:30pm. Arrive LAX, around 8:00pm. Depart LAX for DTW (Detroit), around 12:00am. Arrive DTW, around 6:00am. Depart DTW … Continue reading

Random Music….
OK, it’s the 26th, which means I’m out of scheduled posts. I want to post something but I’m still too jetlagged, two days after arriving home, to really come up with something coherent (the reason why will be a post … Continue reading
Your Daily Dose of Christmas!
It’s Christmas! May the day bring light and joy to you, whoever you are, wherever you are! (I personally tend to associate Handel’s Messiah more with Easter than Christmas, but I’ve noticed the great oratorio making more of a Christmas presence … Continue reading
Your Daily Dose of Christmas!
One day more! Oh, sorry…that has nothing at all to do with Christmas, does it? Sorry! Another grab-bag post: I went to college with this guy! Jim McDonough was obviously talented “way back when”, but he’s really made good on his … Continue reading
Your Daily Dose of Christmas!
Let’s see what’s in the Christmas music (and whatnot) grab-bag today, shall we? I just happened to be watching this when they did it on the air, sometime in the 90s. It lodged in my brain forever. I love this: … Continue reading
Your Daily Dose of Christmas!
There’s no theme here…just songs and music and maybe something that’s not music at all. This will be the way of it for the balance of the season. EDIT: One video has been removed because the uploader removed it. I’m … Continue reading
Cloudy Days in Paradise
Only two days remain in our Hawaiian adventure. This morning we woke up for the first time to cloudy skies. Since gray skies tend to be the norm for Buffalo in winter–a season that I find beautiful in many ways, … Continue reading

Your Daily Dose of Christmas!
OK, I hope this works…I’ve never tried embedding a playlist on WordPress before! If it does work, here is the score to the film The Nativity Story, with music my Mychael Danna. I have not seen the film, but the score is … Continue reading
Writing (and a cheeseburger) in Paradise
To justify the Jimmy Buffet reference, here’s the cheeseburger I had the other night. And here I am, writing. Both of these things happened in Paradise. Some writers are insistent about doing their work in their preferred environments–their home offices … Continue reading
