Being half Italian, I do like meatballs. (Spaghetti and meatballs is an American invention and is not typically eaten in Italy.)

When I was a kid (preteen and teenager) in the 1970s, my parents, our neighbors, and I would chase blue crabs with spotlights and nets at night on our boat on the Great South Bay, off West Islip, Long Island, New York, where we were living.

I was a journalist from September 1982 to April 2017, so I have had many jobs (newspapers, magazines, newsletters, a wire service, and websites), where proofreading has been a major part of my job descriptions. I have also edited/proofread three books: two biographies (1. Johnny Cash and 2. Whitney Houston); and a book on bankruptcy law written by my fraternity brother Mark, whom I continue to extend many thanks. I have also worked as a reporter, writer, editor, researcher, photographer, and page designer for many publications and news outlets, depending on my job descriptions at my time of employment.

I do like pfannkuchen, flapjacks, well, pancakes, especially with chocolate chips. I also like blueberry pancakes. Musts are butter and real maple syrup.

Honoring Lord Krishna (God)

March 6, 2026, at home

I created and uploaded onto my YouTube channel a very short video in honor of Lord Krishna (God). (length: 1 minute, 30 seconds) ... My religion is Gaudiya Vaishnavism (Hare Krishna), a sect of Sanatana Dharma (Hinduism).

The first rule of Dudeism is to sit back, relax, and go with the flow. That's always been me.

I don't particularly like cheesecake, except for when it's my Great-Aunt Laura's homemade cheesecake ... and my Mom's homemade cheesecake (using Laura's recipe). 😉😁 ... NOTE: The recipe is for a standard New York cheesecake: no chocolate.

I sometimes enjoy the occasional Oreo or five, but I would definitely NOT consider it to be a true chocolate cookie.

In an effort to knock out one of the top cancers causing death, National Dress in Blue Day on the first Friday in March encourages everyone to learn about the causes of colon cancer and raise awareness by wearing blue. I'm wearing a blue Superman T-shirt.

Even though I do not like black licorice, I would like to try absinthe. However, I do like Anisette and Sambuca, both of which taste like black licorice.

Absinthe was illegal/banned in the United States from 1912 to 2007. It was banned due to its hallucinogenic properties.

The photo below shows the traditional way to prepare absinthe: Drip drops of absinthe slowly over sugar cubes on a special absinthe spoon; let it drip into a glass; and then, enjoy.

Their taste is OK, but they are not really substantial. They are too puffy for me. This reminds me of an old comic about a guy complaining about getting black fingers from the ink from the newspaper. The other guy says he gets orange fingers from watching the TV news from the Cheese Doodles.

AI: Me as Animals

from husband Bill, March 4, 2026, at home

I created and uploaded a very short AI (Artificial Intelligence) video of myself as four animals playing the piano. (length: 48 seconds) ... I do NOT play the piano in this video. My voice is somewhat similar to the animals' voices.

National Sons Day 2025 is celebrated on March 4 and September 28. Certain countries prefer to celebrate the day in March, while others celebrate the day in September. This is an annual event held on the same day each year.

I do not have a son, but I have been one since February 26, 1961.

I am quite intimate with English grammar, and less so with French grammar and even less so with German grammar.

I was a reporter, writer, editor, proofreader, page designer, researcher, and photographer for print and online publications, and a wire service, from September 1982 to April 2017. I am currently writing an autobiographical novel, and I plan to self-published a book of my self-penned poetry.

I really don't like pound cake. In fact, Strawberry Shortcake is my least favorite dessert. I dislike yellow pound cake, strawberries, and whipped cream.

My father played saxophone in the University of Pennsylvania marching band in the 1950s. My wife played trombone in her high school marching band.
