I will call him Barry, despite his real name actually being Barry. At crack of dawn, Barry parks his pick-up truck in our driveway and then decamps to the nearby woods. There he sits in a blind that he had constructed last summer. He waits for his prey of choice, which is deer, which he

Post for the Jewish New Year, although the subject is not especially religious.

The website Youtube is an inexhaustible source of video nostalgia. Recently it's been calling my attention to the late astronomer and smart person Carl Sagan, particularly to his appearances in the mid-1970s on The Tonight Show, starring Johnny Carson. Among the many conversation topics was the movi...

Today's post on science.

Here is the next in my series of confounding science questions. Question 10: Why can us ordinary schmos identify with Albert Einstein? Einstein is at the blackboard, trying to work out his world-famous equation. He's crossed out E = mc7, he's considering E = mc4, and he's tried c to the power of 3 a...

Another post in the science series.

Here is the next entry in my series on science questions. It's icy cold, it's dark and distant, it's PLUTO, a planet (sort of) with powers far beyond those of any gas giant or terrestrial pipsqueak, including Earth. For Pluto is not merely a planet or dwarf planet, but a body that is INTERESTING, an...

Here's my latest post on Confounding Questions in Science. It's not just Noah's Ark, it's Doctor Who and Star Trek and the Muppet Show!

Here is the latest installment in my series on science questions. I may think of myself as Science Boy (my secret identity, I have the letters "SB" and a test tube emblazoned on my cape.) But I have dabbled in fiction writing, and I can recognize a good story when I see it. Question 6:

Here is the second entry in my series: Confounding Questions in Science.

Here is the second entry in this series. Let's get this out of the way: Albert Einstein was the pre-eminent genius physicist of the twentieth century, a man famous and exalted—and deservedly so—for his contributions to science.[1] But yes, he did come down on the wrong side of certain controvers...

Here is an undeniably lengthy but hopefully interesting post about science, language, and the old Batman television series.

Here in 2025, the fate of the good ship U.S.S. United States has yet to be written, but the bad news is that we've struck the orange-tinted iceberg and have been taking on water on all decks. We are called to stand our ground and raise our voices in protest, but I also have heard

Here's the post for the day!

Our evening on the town—Boston, specifically—was a big success. The baby sitter, recruited from care.com, proved to be as capable and competent as advertised, and not the scheming psychopath of darkest worry. At the restaurant, we dined outdoors in the amazingly gorgeous springtime weather. We e...

Here is a post for today, written entirely on a northbound Amtrak train.

After all these years, I finally laid eyes on Yawgoo Valley. End prose. Begin pretentious analysis of the writing. Please consider the following few paragraph as if they were also written in italics. I like that opening sentence. It's full of promise, mildly intriguing, and inspires a host of useful...

I've been listening to a lot of Paul McCartney. Not so much the Beatles, but Paul fronting for Wings, circa mid-1970's, with all those organ chords and Linda on the tambourine. No idea why, Apparently the songs fill something that my brain needs or finds useful, especially at 10 or 11 PM at night.

With a little luck, we can work it out, and so on and so on.

I have had lots of good luck in my lifetime, as well as the other kind. Just what is luck? A favorable outcome that is not certain and not directly controllable by you, its recipient--that's one definition that trips off the computer keyboard. But, what is luck?

Here's to good luck for the next few weeks, up to Election Day and, alas, its immediate aftermath.
