What a strange trip it’s been.  As most of you know by now, I was in a rather serious car accident during the Memorial Day Weekend, returning home last week after three weeks in hospital/rehab.

A reminder: The Amazon rankings are updated every hour, so these lists might not be 100 percent accurate by the time you read them (or even by the time I finish posting them).

I’ve taken a lot of grief over the years for the fact that I’m a lifelong Mets fan. My first game was back in (mumble mumble) when they were still pretty stinko. I still remember going to a game with my day camp and having the bus break down on the way back to Brooklyn. […]

Just renewed the domain for another year, so to make it worthwhile I guess I should be posting more often, and not just “Lest We Forget.” I don’t seem to have the free time to read as I did when I was working as a journalist, which is kind of weird, considering these days I’m […]
