Imagine if that were a real question in conversation rather than just an expected exchange of pleasantries. We all say it, sort of like muscle memory. But are we really asking the other person to share how they truly are in that moment? Perhaps they just had a difficult conversation with a family member. Or maybe they are worried about the stabi …
What has happened to salt? I know it’s not a healthy preference but I like salt in my food. My husband will laugh at me because he has caught me salting my food before I even tasted it. I have noticed, however, that most restaurants no longer have salt on the table. You have to ask for it. And, it’s generally taken almost as a criticism of th …
I wore a special tee-shirt yesterday. Reason best explained next week. That said the saying seemed to align with current events. I gave no thought to that alignment when I set aside that tee Friday eve. It only occurred to me yesterday afternoon at the second winery we visited yesterday. As I recall things, our friend Starr (who is a mom by the …
I was asked today (Friday) what I'm doing this weekend. I thought about it and said "Pulling weeds." It may sound a bit odd but there's great satisfaction when you pull a weed out - root and all. Especially those f*&^%$n weed vines that seem to cover everything. You will notice them on some of the trees at the sides of our highways. If left u …
Monday's annual Gotham Networking, Bob Formica Memorial Golf Outing (sponsored by Raj and Sharon Goel's Brainlink International), dawned clear and crisp and warmed to a perfect, sunny, 70 degree day. So many great things occurred on this special day, shepherded by Entertainment Chair Norm Spizz and his stellar Golf Committee. Registration was see …
It is increasingly rare that I see a restaurant check without a suggested gratuity amount. Now there are more of the remote devices presented by the server which offer the suggested tip as a prerequisite to having your credit card returned.The paper slip with the suggestions (on the pre-tax amount?) and the pen will soon go the way of the dinosaur. …
Its 18 years running! (No one seems to really know the exact number) For the first time in Gotham history there was a Hole In One on the 17th hole, 177 yard par 3, or was it 192? This year the weather was perfect, the golf was great, the food and drink were plentiful. Fred sang a song(back up singer), I played camera man. An amazing crowd o …
Yesterday we celebrated an annual Gotham tradition – our Golf Outing. Norman and the Golf Committee outdid themselves again this year – with a little help from their friends on the day of the outing. The event was flawless and filled with long-time Gotham members, new members and new friends. I know – I took a survey at dinner. I hope you wil …
I dislike making gender specific characteristics. But this one I have to question. During a conversation at lunch at work last week, the subject of our weights came up. The men were very willing-and in fact did-to share their weights. The women, on the other hand, all refused to disclose their weight. And we were all shocked that the men so readi …
When I offered to fill in for your regular Sunday Blogger I told him that I would adhere to the usual musical themed post. On an early August Friday, I cut out of work at lunchtime, loaded up my car with supplies and my friend Eric and began the trek upstate to Bethel Woods, the site of the Woodstock festival, for a pair of concerts. I had made …
