The Poseidon Adventure 2: The Sinking of Manhattan

The Poseidon Adventure 2: The Sinking of Manhattan

The plan for this trip changed about 16 times.  I was going to go to Ptown; and then I added a road trip up to Boston and Maine to do a little leaf peeping and visit with an old (emphasis on old) friend; and then I found out Rachel Bloom was doing a show in NYC for 4...

Janet Jackson Appreciation Day

Janet Jackson Appreciation Day

Today is Janet Jackson Appreciation Day. If you don't know why, Google it. It has to do with the Super Bowl incident. In honor of that, I have compiled a list and a YouTube playlist of my favorite Janet Jackson songs. It includes major hits that you know and love,...

The Top 100 Disco Songs of All Time

The Top 100 Disco Songs of All Time by Rick Garman I'm turning 54 this year, so in honor of the legendary Studio 54 nightclub, I'm hereby present to you my list of the Top 100 Disco Songs of all time. Why? Well, mostly because I'm coronabored, but also why not? I am...

Visiting the Pulse Memorial

My Top 50 Prince Songs Countdown

Not long after Prince faked his death and moved to a tropical island to live with a couple of hot models who follow him around all day striking random poses (you believe what you want to believe, I'll believe what I want to believe), I culled a list of what I felt...

Savannah 2017 Part One: Good Food, Good Drag, Good Movies

I still can't quite put my finger on what it is about Savannah but whenever I get here I sort feel like I'm home. There's something about the history, the people, the scenery, and the general laid back attitude mixed with a healthy dose of mystery in the air - like...

February 16, 2010

Again, this is how I remember it - what happened seven years ago today. But first, one of my favorite pictures of the two of us... My ring tone is the sound of a duck quacking. I don’t know why except that I’m lazy and cheap and don’t feel like changing it or buying...

February 15, 2010

This is how I remember it. I could spend a lot of time talking about the difference between perceived reality and actual reality and the huge canyon that straddles the gap, but it’s been done before and better than I ever could. For now, let’s just say that this is my...

The Year of Living With Cancer

In 2012, I was diagnosed with Esophageal Cancer.  To help myself cope with it, I wrote about it.  A lot.  And yes, the picture of Angela and Jordan will make sense at some point if you read enough.

The Year of Living Differently

After cancer, I decided to try to mix things up and do something different every single day for a year.  Did I make it?

50 for 50 by 50

To celebrate, or perhaps to distract myself from, my impending 50th birthday in 2016, I embarked on a project to give $50 to 50 different charities by the time I turned 50.
