Whether they know it or not, everyone has a story to tell. However, some folks never tell their stories because they think they have nothing to say – that their life is too boring. It’s with that in mind, that I set out to create a photo essay that took something routine and mundane –Continue reading “Day in the Life – a photo essay”

Wordless Wednes–er…Friday – Super Valentine’s Day
Yes, Virginia, There is a Santa Claus
One of the things I love about the holidays is some of the great history that comes along with it. I’m an absolute sucker for the History Channel’s documentaries on the stories behind Halloween, Thanksgiving and, of course, Christmas. The old photos, newspaper clippings, engravings – there’s just something so amazing to not only learnContinue reading “Yes, Virginia, There is a Santa Claus”
Bat-Kid gives me hope for the world
You have no doubt seen somewhere, be it television, newspapers, or the internet, the story of BatKid saving San Francisco-turned Gotham City from the likes of The Riddler and The Penguin this week. If you haven’t yet heard about it, take a second and Google “BatKid” and read a few stories about it and comeContinue reading “Bat-Kid gives me hope for the world”
Whose success are we working toward?
The other day I was in the car and flipping through radio stations when I came across a program where a Brit and an American were talking about the term ‘success.’ At one point, the Brit talked about how the perception of what success is, is vastly different in America than in some other countries.Continue reading “Whose success are we working toward?”
(Turn and Face the Stranger), Ch-Ch-Changes…
A lot has been going on lately and life has been a bit in flux. Last Friday, after more than seven years in the journalism business, most of those in broadcasting but print before that, I left the news business. As of this week, I am jumping into a brand new career in the realmContinue reading “(Turn and Face the Stranger), Ch-Ch-Changes…”
Bringing up Bébé
I just finished Pamela Druckerman’s book, “Bringing Up Bébé.” .She’s an American journalist who moved to France with her husband where they gave birth to a daughter and two twin boys and quickly learned about the vast differences in culture, parenthood, and child rearing in France versus in America. Druckerman covers a wide variety ofContinue reading “Bringing up Bébé”
Color blind?
During one of our favorite weekend rituals (a cup of tea and watching CBS Sunday Morning), I came across this report that I really found interesting. I thought you might too: http://www.cbsnews.com/video/watch/?id=50137957n (sorry. WordPress won’t allow me to directly embed the video, but please give it a click and a watch) It’s amazing to seeContinue reading “Color blind?”
Back to work
Today has been tough. It’s been my first day returning to work following the arrival of our little guy. I knew it wouldn’t be easy, and I understand the necessity of it, as being without a job and an income is not exactly helpful to my wife, or my son. So, there is an inherentContinue reading “Back to work”
Extra, extra, read all about it
My wife recently had a dream. In it, she says that we ended up having a little girl, and that as she got older, she decided she wanted to be a journalist. In the dream, she says this caused an incredible rift between the daughter and myself, as the many years in journalism professionally madeContinue reading “Extra, extra, read all about it”
