Long time, no post: the well is dry

For the first time in my illustrious blogging career, I’ve had a total, complete, two-week-long bout of writer’s block. It’s bizarre… we’re all on the cusp of football season, the Emmy awards went down last week, and I saw a Padres game during a business trip to San Diego.  And what’s the best blog idea I’ve had?   A hard-hitting piece about why I hate Neil Diamond. 

Stuff that grinds my gears

Recently, I rewatched the Family Guy movie, “Stewie Griffin – The Untold Story.” My favorite part — ok, at least it’s in the top 10 — is when Peter gets a job on the local TV station where he vents about stuff that just makes him mad (“You know what really grinds my gears?”).

One man versus an airport: my travel story

A few weeks ago, I mentioned my bad luck with Boston Logan airport. This week, I made another three-day trip to Beantown, and I’ll admit, I was a bit anxious about returning to my nemisis. Can an airport be your nemisis? Well, I don’t really have a person who fills that role, so yeah… Logan is my arch-enemy.

Random, not-so-deep thoughts

Every so often — typically as I’m driving or walking the dog — I come up with snippets of ideas for blog entries. Usually, however, these ideas aren’t… um… well-reasoned thoughts. But rather than get rid of them, I’m going to throw out some of the things that are kicking around my head. And bear in mind, I’m not — nor have I ever been — in a mental institution.
