Why do we vilify?
Posted By : Mitch Tobol

Political violence is, unfortunately, increasing. Each incident raises questions for me that go way beyond the individual at the center of the story. These moments are not just about one politician, commentator, or activist; they’re about the climate we’re all living in and the direction we’re sadly heading.   Reuters has reported about 150 politic

Perfect Sandwiches
Posted By : Fred Klein

Last weekend Joanne made me one of her perfect sandwiches.  So perfect that I was compelled to blog its (her) praise.  It was a turkey and cheese sandwich:  Boar's Head Turkey breast, Muenster cheese on Dave's Killer (21 Whole Grains And Seeds) organic bread with romaine lettuce (for the crunch) supplemented by Hellmann's Mayonnaise (secret ingredi

It was an incredible celebration bringing together family, from near and far, as well as people with whom she has maintained friendships with for over eighty years.   We asked each guest to speak for a moment or two about their favorite memories of Marion. I had

Just over a week ago, I attended another show with Marisa. If not for that week’s proud parent moment covered last Sunday, today’s blog would have appeared that day. On the way to take in “The Who ‘The Song is Over’ 2025 North American Farewell Tour” at Jones Beach, August 28, Marisa pointed out how she grew up on The Who. Indeed, it seemed like cl
