I have been pondering (thinking heavily about) the ongoing sorcerer scandal occurring in Iran as some scurrilous types are accusing President Ahmadinejad of being under the influence of sorcerers, to which President Ahmadinejad replies "that is a joke- ha ha ha". Meanwhile President Ahmadinejad's pals are all being arrested by the ayatollahs. Ha, ha, ha, not so funny. Oh those crazy clerics!

Hedge Fund manager David Einhorn is going to put $200,000,000 into the New York Mets. Wow.
May 27, 2011 Yes, I feel obliged to talk even more about David Einhorn's buying into the hapless New York Mets. What a wild success story this is going to be!

The Wilpons and Saul Katz, the New York Mets owners, are not happy with the situation.
I put up my camera and talk to it when I drive in order to avoid having to listen to one word of Glen Beck or Rush Limbaugh on the radio. My eyes are on the road at all times.
Jimmy Fallon's parody of Charlie Sheen is brilliant and makes me understand why NBC is sticking with Jimmy Fallon's show as they wait for it to become as good as this video.
I have been a Knicks fan for years and I have suffered the slings and arrows of defeat over the last ten years. Suddenly the Knicks are making big moves-very big moves-like trading four of their starting five for one player, Carmelo Anthony. Will this be a good thing? I must keep a log of Carmelo and the Knicks for the rest of the season. Follow this on my Carmelo Anthony Log.
Friday January 28, 2011. New York is buried in snow. We must dig out. Muchachos to the rescue! Gratias gentlemen!

The Jazz Cruise 2011-- January 29-Feb. 5 2011
My, my, what a blizzard we had last night! (Dec 27, 2010) I took a walk this morning and noticed who had been naughty or nice about snow clearing. Everybody but our local Scottrade office was busy clearing the sidewalk of snow. Scottrade didn't seem to mind our having to trundle through the two feet of snow in front of their office. So I made a little video in their honor.
Where is Dean Martin when you really need him??
And what about Frankie??
And Dianna Kral (in a thoughtfull and reflective Christmas pose).

We save the best for last-the swinger herself, the queen of 4/4, Ms. Jessica Simpson. Note her delicate phrasing and interpretation of these otherwise un-noteworthy lyrics. Jessica gives true meaning to……..something. And her photo is even more in the spirit of giving than Ms. Krals!

Hello Everyone:
It's December and all is well, actually. I would love you to look at this video. It deals with the art of conducting an orchestra and it is beautiful! I think you will agree.

I just appeared in the Thalia Follies here in New York. I loved performing and being part of that show! The cast is hugely talented and they are great folks. Here are two songs I wrote and performed for The Thalia Follies.

July 31, Strathallen Hotel Rochester NY: I have gotten tired of being accused of demagnetizing my hotel room key card by placing the key card anywhere near my cell phone, much less next to it in my pocket. Hotel people look as you askance and wonder why you just wont learn?? So I have run a little barely scientific test of the whole cell phone/key card matter.

I couldn't get over the look and appearance of UAL CEO Glen Tilton as he appeared before a congressional committee to convince them that the merger of United Air and Continental Airways had nothing whatsoever to do with any kind of anti-trust shenanigans.

Once again, we fall hopelessly behind in updating our website. It's April 6, 2010, the weather is warm, yet on my site weathermen are still ranting about the snow.
Thursday Afternoon February 25 :
It's important to see for ourselves how nicely people are adjusting to this little patch of inclement weather we're having here in the east.
