Tuesdays With Murray (Chapter 46)
PRELUDE I had a great deal of trouble putting aside a post I’ve been writing for weeks in order to keep with Tuesday’s theme. The post in question is about how I plan on ending this Web site. It includes reasons why as well as ideas for what I could do with it. I’m still…

Dog Park Politics
It’s probably pretty obvious by now that I’m what some may call a “cat person”. I love cats. I love all animals. But I love cats. They hold a special place in my heart, even the troubled ones. And so I am biased. I’ll admit that straight up. Every day (weather permitting) Emory and I…

None of What You Hear and Half of What You See.
What if you woke up today and read the following expert from a blog based out of Brooklyn. I saw a woman pull a baby out of the trunk of her car on Friday afternoon. It was horrifying. You see, I was at the bodega on Meeker Avenue buying some lottery tickets. I rounded the…

Tuesdays With Murray (Chapter 41)
A couple of weeks ago I decided to make a sandwich only to discover we were completely out of bread. As I cursed at Toby for finishing off the bread and not letting me know, I heated up some soup instead. Later that day I purchased two loaves of bread at our local Key Foods.…
