  • Girlyman at Joe’s Pub

    Last night was our eighth Girlyman concert. It was the third time we’ve seen them at Joe’s Pub (where it all began). The other five shows were spread out over five venues, in two states, in five cities, with vast differences between the venues and at times, the audience makeup as well. These […]

  • I Fully Support President Obama

    I voted for John McCain, so did Lois (or so she told me). Each of us admitted to the other, that even though we knew in advance that we were voting for McCain, we hesitated in the voting booth, and wanted to vote for Obama. Not because we believed the rhetoric, and certainly […]

  • Rebuilding jackkapanka.com

    I have written twice now about taking over the maintenance of Jack Kapanka’s website. There were three distinct phases of working on the site: Fix the broken links Change the home and store pages (adding PayPal support) Redesign (rebuild) the site from scratch All three phases are now done, though there is no […]

  • Image Rich Lyrics

    There are two kinds of great songwriters in the world: those that can tell stories in easy to grasp (yet captivating) words, and those that can paint the richest canvas with image-laden words. Of course, there are many super-great songwriters who can do both equally well, and move between the two at will. […]

  • Jack Kapanka

    A few weeks ago, I wrote two posts about a website I was working on for a new friend. Neither of those posts is really germane to this one, but for reference, they were here and here. Those were techie posts, this is not, other than repeating how we came to discover Jack […]

  • October 2008 Poker

    Wow. I was so excited and absorbed with our surprise trip to Cobleskill yesterday that I completely forgot to report on my poker results for October. While I was playing the big weekly tourney this evening, I realized that, and now that I’ve lost that one (part of next month’s report), I can […]

  • Girlyman at Golding Park Cafe

    For the few people who follow me on Twitter (I have a private feed, so there aren’t many), they knew something was up yesterday when I tweeted the following: Heading out for a long and secret adventure with Laura and Chris. Back around 1am, blog tomorrow! 😉 So mysterious. Now the mystery can […]

  • CMA Writers Series at Joe’s Pub

    Another day, another CMA Song Writer Series concert at Joe’s Pub! 😉 Seriously, in addition to this being our seventh such show, it was also our second night in a row. The only repeat performer was the host, Bob DiPiero. I will have some things to say a little later on that will […]

  • Rock-N-Sake

    There are a group of businessmen that I’m very friendly with that happen to also be investors in my fund. For the past two years we’ve spent a considerable amount of time together, because we served on the board of a small company. Unfortunately, with everything turning sour earlier this year, we all […]

  • CMA Writers Series at Joe’s Pub

    Last night was our sixth time attending the CMA Song Writers Series at Joe’s Pub. Tonight will be our seventh. 😉 We’ve enjoyed every single rendition, including last night. As I’ve written before, the performance abilities of the multitude of writers can be quite varied. Some are quite raw, while a few are […]
