Thinking about the Mustache Lady has me reflecting on some of the nicknames my friends and I came up with for various people who crossed our paths during childhood, and up through high school and college. The recurring theme is that the nicknames were very simple, but effectively descriptive. Perhaps that’s why I remember them. [...]

Who knew there was an American Mustache Institute? I also love how he makes sure to say that a mustache brings power to the “men OR women” who choose to wear one. A woman with a mustache definitely exudes power. When I was [...] In my last post, I speculated on where the City of Boston’s sports teams’ 07-08 season ranked in history. Well, espn ranks it third. Touch choice as to whether reaching 4 finals in 4 sports (but only winning one), as Philly did in 80-81, beats 3 finals (and one near undefeated season) and 2 championships this [...] Congrats to the Men in Green for bringing home Banner #17 last night. I managed to stay up until the end. Just a complete and utter annihilation. I was actually feeling embarrassed for the Lakers. The Celts just stomped ‘em and never let their collective foot off the Lakers’ throats. I have to admit that a year [...] I left my office this afternoon and walked up State Street to go to the Newbury Comics store to pick up a gift card for my Dad for Father’s Day. On the way back, I was waiting for the light to change to cross the street. There were poeple around me, as well as a [...] Tim Russert of NBC’s Meet the Press died today of a heart attack. He was 58. Very sad. I always enjoyed watching him, either while hosting Meet the Press or in his guest spots on other NBC programs like Morning Joe. He just struck me as not only a smart guy, but a decent one, too. He was respected by both [...] I should have my sports fan credentials revoked. I turned on the Celts game last night and they were down 16 in the first quarter. I checked back a few times, then watched something else, and then checked one more time at halftime, when they were down 18. No way I was staying up to [...] Last night, while watching Game One of the Celts- Lakers final, I flipped over to espn or the deuce, one of which was re-broadcasting the 2008 Scipps Spelling Bee. I got sucked in, to the point I was missing parts of the basketball game. It really is too easy, and I don’t want to mock any [...] Nicholas Zeki Conman (Zeki is in honor of the sis in law’s deceased father). Can’t wait to meet him this weekend. nicholas-zeki-2.jpg nicholas-zeki-4.jpg nicholas-zeki-3.jpg Just got the call from the bro. The newest member of the Conman clan (and first grandchild for my parents) arrived at approximately 1:50 p.m. today. 7 pounds, with a lot of dark hair and a conehead (per the bro’s description). It was a long process but he finally came out and appears perfectly healthy. [...] |
