Last week, I was interviewed for an article for Newsweek online about supporters of Kate Gosselin. To the writer, I was a supporter of Kate based on my postings on my blog and I guess I am to the extent that in my opinion she has to support those eight kids and darn it, if […]
Wordless Wednesday – Do you remember when?
In my efforts to get organized (which if worked 24/7 will never happen,) I found some photos. Lord have mercy, remember when you had to go and stock up on film and get them developed. That wasn’t that long ago. Luckily, the company where I had my film developed offered a dvd option and lo […]
Summer Camp Dilemma
What’s on every New York parent’s mind, right now. Summer Camp. “Where is your child going to camp?” I must get asked this question, 3-4 times a week or I am asking someone where their child is going to camp. I am not sure if going to camp is a Northeast or New York thing […]

Wordless Wednesday – Karate Promotion to Advanced Blue Belt
Before the promotion program. Just a blue belt. The exercise part of the program, I love it, they make the kids all do pushups, jumping jacks and sit ups. What is this the army? Quiet time while sempais (teachers) put out their belts Ah the culmination of hard work. Now my daughter is an advanced […]
Our children will never know…
A class parent forwarded this onto me. I don’t usually read chain emails but this one was particularly timely as another dad today asked what an iPod touch was and I thought my friend you are in big trouble. Of course, I feel old every time my daughter adds games to my iPhone and can […]
Sarah Jessica Parker and Matthew Broderick at Karate Promotion
This morning’s big event was that Sarah Jessica Parker and Matthew Broderick were at the dojo where my daughter’s karate promotion was taking place. It’s always fun to watch and see jaded new yorkers try as they may to resist being in the glow of celebrity but can’t help themselves and I include myself in […]
