Summary:

At times, the world seems bent on just complaining, especially those with some years behind them. Staying "conscious" dictates there's no time to bitch about some ache in one's ass, head, or heart. Age? What’s that?

(A prosetry observation) Ants and roaches have been around millions of years and give no indication of becoming extinct. We on the other hand…

After reading Sheryl Sandberg's 'Lean In' and several essays about work/life balance (most notably those of Anne-Marie Slaughter and Erin Callan), I posted this on my Bedroom To Courtroom blog. It was published today in Huffington Post Women. I hope it provokes some thought... : )

I am working on a writing project regarding some things I witness in the medical field. This is hopefully just the beginning and I know I need to expand the topics, which hopefully will come as I research more. Specifically, I am focused on how we take care of our senior citizens.

Summary:

I am so tired of the Gay Marriage Debate. But even more than that, I am tired of my fellow Christians giving Christendom a black eye. Again. There are a few lines here you might find glib. I did write it with a somewhat humorous slant. All nits/tense correction/what I can do with myself and my opinion/spell checks welcome. Thank you for reading.

Summary:

Last night, while inane entertainment held the anticipatory stare of 1 billion people, pockets of power mongering reality continued killing and pillaging humanity’s integrity. Whether by slick “three-nation foreign tour” or concussion of armored tank aggression on Aleppo, honor continues to agonize, while global indifference continues to grow-—prompting this repost originally addressing an Obama speech, adapted now to hopefully shed more consciousness on even broader issues.

This will be one article in a section entitled "For the Writers among Us" in a new book of (generally) narrative nonfiction I'm putting together. Not a very "compelling" title, I have to admit. Help!? But does the writing hold your interest? Say something worthwhile? Keep an interesting pace and substance. Hey, it's SHORT!

Chapters:

Summary:

Self-respect can get out of hand… for some. Others, like me, have to keep a tight rein on the old comfort zone others might have me subscribe to.

This is the other side of My Story. There are some personal revelations in this, they are there to prove a point and not to generate sympathy for me. Many women my age had it much worse, I am just lucky I got away from it before it hurt my children. Any feed back welcome. Thanks for reading.

No two people dress up as much as the Pope and the Queen. So I decided a short article on the subject was long overdue.

After writing for 7 years, I finally found a publisher a few miles from home. Their books are beautiful. Best paper, best printing. Not cheap. Their retail store offers copying services as well as books for sale. Books by local authors. Amherst has a lot of local authors, many of them well known. Emily Dickinson, Robert Frost, Jim Tate, lots more. Check out Levellers Press, order a book. You won't be disappointed.

This is as much as I know about Irish cooking. I've eaten in Ireland, prefer the pub-grub or eating on the Aran Islands. My mother was an awful cook but I learned a lot from my Italian mother-in-law. Otherwise my marriage woudn't have lasted for fifty years. Have you any Irish recipes?

In a world where conformity bodes well for those satisfied with mediocrity, far too little is credited to the inordinate creativity that challenges the mental health of the sane.

Summary:

This morning's story of a particular style of drawing attention to a tragedy, was indeed an even greater tragedy, given the media's blood lust for anything that will garner eyeballs to the printed page. Herein is an editorial/prosetry rendering of conscience... at least for those who deem themselves conscious.

I know, I know... I really talked some shite when this contest was first announced. Now I'm afraid I can't back it up. This always happens to me. Especially when it comes to athletics. I shoot my mouth off and then, once we get on the court (in the ring, on the field, or inside the lines) I inevitably get my ass kicked in. Still, I had to post SOMEthing. Right? So here's a brief chronicle of one American town's sad professional sports history. While I, incumbently, try to extract some measure of triumph from the jaws of futility.

Summary:

A little tongue in cheek here. How does one advise grandchildren? Their lives are so different. But some things must be understood. I mention here what I consider to be important, but leave a lot out as not enough room. These are the essentials.

Summary:

Rev. Martin Luther King's struggle for civil rights was a bold political initiative. Politicians didn't like it, wished he would go away, but he wouldn't. He was right. He put his life on the line. He forced the Kennedy administration to face up to the reality of segregation. The evil of segregation not only in the south but up north too. Rev. Ralph Roy went to jail with Rev. King for disobeying the law. He was a white man who had a Methodist church in Harlem. I meet him every July 4 at a picnic in Ware, Mass. He brings his friend Joan, Robert DeNiro's Aunt.
