Huh? | Welcome!

https://goldberg.wordpress.com/2014/03/05/huh

It's all fun! You think you know more than I do, he laughed, then realized he was laughing at himself. Alice never even knew his name, although he knew hers and several more just like it. He knew too much, he reckoned, although the police, when they got around to asking, found nothing worth following up on. Tomorrow all would seem different, but not to him. Ha!

Ireland, First Impressions | Welcome!

It's all fun! Ireland, First Impressions. Anyhow, with all this history, I landed in Ireland expecting no surprises. More would be revealed. Here he is in protective hurling gear. Hurling uses a stick like and for the same purpose as the long handled throwing net used in lacrosse, a game it much resembles and claims to predate. “Always remember,” Sean told us. “The Irish will never let the truth stand in the way of a good story.”. Temperatures below 40 or above 60 merit consideration for the. We went to ...

It's all fun! Your Ride Starts Here. Stay with me on this one. It’s got nothing to do with grafitti, and I don’t know where it’s going. The stimulus comes from a. Posting from Diane, a woman I met when taking a Foundations (or, maybe, Fundamentals) of Chaplaincy course at the New York Zen Center for Contemplative Care a few years ago.

Northern Connecticut Sky | Welcome!

https://goldberg.wordpress.com/2015/01/04/northern-connecticut-sky

It's all fun! The sky above Enfield, Connecticut. Enfield and Harwinton Connecticut, Feeding Hills Massachusetts. These are now the homes of three of my step children and, consequently, the foci of my visits now to northern Connecticut. It wasn’t always that way. These being the tallest buildings not just on the block but in the whole neighborhood, the sky seemed always visible, and, for me now employing that device so favored by the aging,. How many hours did I spend on Forest Road in Merrow in that fal...

Tuesday late | Welcome!

https://goldberg.wordpress.com/2015/05/07/tuesday-late

It's all fun! Today, according to the New York Times “Your Thursday Briefing,” is National Short Story Day. Here is my tribute to that event:. Chris said, What? In a separate glass, she replied quickly. Ripley remembered an old country tune, The Girls All Get Prettier at Closing Time. Beyond that, it had been a while since he’d heard bar talk from the past from his past. He smiled and turned toward her. Bartenders nowadays don’t know bar-speak. He grinned. She looked up face blank. You talkin’ to me?

Reflections & Haiku: Looking lnward | Welcome!

https://goldberg.wordpress.com/2015/04/24/reflections-haiku-looking-lnward

It's all fun! Reflections and Haiku: Looking lnward. A friend of mine insists that we all–all! 8211;carry around loads of disfunctionality and depression. He says those who deny this are simply those who carry it at an unconscious level, so, of course, they don’t know they’re doing it. Another friend is more likely to say, “Yeah, whatever. Let’s fix whatever’s broken, then go for a bike ride.” Me? I make photogrphs and write. This one juxtaposes contemporary fashion with both old and new architecture.

2013 Reflections, 2014 Wishes | Welcome!

https://goldberg.wordpress.com/2013/12/31/2013-reflections-2014-wishes

It's all fun! 2013 Reflections, 2014 Wishes. In the year to come I’d like. To shut up more. To take off my cape and my skin-tight blue shirt with the big red “S” on the chest, to stop playing lawyer and Red Cross representative. To spend more time outdoors. To stop thinking about those folks I thought I’d always be friends with and no longer am. Similarly, to give up old angers. To stop thinking that I’m actually much younger than I am or more sought after than I am (or less, for that matter.). Even more...

Remembering John Goldberg | Welcome!

https://goldberg.wordpress.com/2014/05/27/remembering-john-goldberg

It's all fun! Last Saturday, May 24th, marked the 50th anniversary of my father, John Goldberg’s, death. Bobbie, my wife, was in Connecticut with her kids and grandkids. I was left here with restlessness, discomfort and the urge to look at old photographs. I phoned my sister, Barbara Kinloch, not so much to reminisce as simply to talk to my sister. I posted this on Facebook:. Friends were generous with their comments of support. These two, however, rocked me:. Patrick McMahon: Beautiful. I understand.
