I bought a Garmin watch about 2 weeks ago to use as a stop watch. I forgot that it came with features to manage sleep, steps, and identify stress levels to name a few. With no intention of using the features, it is impossible not to be curious about them. The first is...

My Costco post generated some buzz! I’m trying to act not-surprised. The comments are appreciated. I wanted to follow up to address two points. What do I mean when I say I’m “better” than Costco shoppers? Initially I thought this would be the...

For those living under a rock, Sabastian Sawe AND Yomif Kejelcha both broke 2 hours at the London Marathon on Sunday. The History The two hour mark is a mystical time, similar to the 4 minute mile, except that very few really thought it was doable. Geb ran 2:03:59 in...

For most of my 20s, I woke up whenever I felt like it. Short commute. CK4 and I played poker tournaments every night. Then, late nights in Manayunk on weekdays. I wasn’t too concerned with work performance. As long as I showed up, I was being paid. (Little did I...

91, 89, 93, 96, 89, 89, 90, 84, 87, 93. Those are my golf round scores to start ’26. It appears that the high 80’s to mid 90’s is where I’ve begun the season. What’s humorous to me is I’m hitting the ball to play in the 70’s....

Costco on a Saturday morning forces some uncomfortable observations upon society. We went yesterday to stock up on paper towels, TP, etc. and after leaving I felt bad about myself, others, and the world. The place is mayhem. My immediate judgmental self observed:...

That’s what makes it harder! I’m not sure what makes it harder, but, we’ll assume it’s “that”. Perhaps it’s because these guys opened for Morrissey, and they hit that 80’s sound I like so much, but it’s rare I find...

I took the above picture while on a walk last week. When I looked at, something immediately triggered in my brain… “I’ve seen this before”. I assumed it would come to me within a few seconds… but it never did. Minutes went by, then hours,...

The more AI has been integrated into our lives, the more annoying it’s becoming. Every time I see the word “precise” now, I cringe, knowing that the person was too lazy to think of a better word. It’s “the” AI word to sound smart. I...

Netflix released Season 4 of Love on the Spectrum and it’s must-watch TV. I don’t say that about much, most recently The Rehearsal Season 2 and White Lotus Seasons 1 & 2 (season 3 was trash and didn’t warrant a character ranking). The premise is...
