A Little BS

  • Employer vs. Employee

    I was sick almost the entire long Thanksgiving weekend. On Monday, upon returning to work, I spoke to a friend who also owns his own business and he said “Well, at least you got sick on a long weekend and didn’t miss any work.” I agreed. Later I spoke to a [...]

  • Life as a DVR

    Number of comments: 2
    I’ve often thought, over the years, that I wish life had a rewind button. You could pick a spot, rewind to that point, and then get a do over. A time or two I’ve also wanted a fast forward button. These days, I’m looking for the Pause or, at least, the [...]

  • Waiting.

    Julie and I went to hear John Waller in concert last night. He’s best known for his single “While I’m Waiting”, which was used in the movie FIREPROOF. I saw the movie and remember liking the song. But, as is often the case, it’s the story behind the song that [...]

    It sounds stupid to say I feel violated, but I do. I was wrapping up a long day at work, and loading my car with all the gear I would need Sunday afternoon for a commercial shoot. I opened up the trunk & side door of my car, and loaded [...]

    A couple of weeks ago, I won a little contest on Twitter. Corey Murphy (AKA Corey Franklin) offered a pair of concert tickets to the first person to tweet him and I was the first. He was opening for a band called Tenth Avenue North in a little church between [...]

    I don’t like Country Music. I also don’t like Leisure Suits. So the following video had two strikes before I hit PLAY. But, man…I love this song. Go ahead, call me a sap. I admitted liking a Chick Flick (The Proposal) and this song in the same week. [...][...]

    After watching the movie “The Bucket List” a couple of years ago, I jotted down a few things I’d like to do before I die. One of them was to see Tiger Woods play golf in person. I checked it off my list last Friday. After watching Tiger’s epic win at [...]

    Next Monday, radio personality Don Geronimo will join local talk station WGMD-FM (92.7, Rehoboth Beach, DE) as its midday host. All signs point to a train wreck. But not so fast.

    JD Souther is one of my favorite singer/songwriters. He was instrumental (pardon the pun) in the success of The Eagle’s, James Taylor, Jackson Browne and others…but never became a household name himself. I think he should have. This video is JD with JT – and if you can find a song [...]

    One of things I dislike about American Idol, and the other so-called ‘reality’ shows is how the producers make fun of people. Granted, some people try out for the show just to be on TV. They are fair game. I’m talking about the people who genuinely believe they can sing [...]

    So it’s the day before Easter. For me, Easter always forces me to consider my faith and realize how radical my beliefs are. I don’t generally consider myself a radical. I mean, I’ve never picketed in front of an abortion clinic. I seldom write my legislators. I don’t think I [...]
