A Hallmark Hanukkah
You have to give it to the Hallmark people. They figured it out – Christmas is but one day a year, which leaves the other 364 for Christmas movies. But upon consultation with their lawyers, they were advised to do one movie per year that was not about Christmas. Enter the annual Hanukkah movie. It…

Goodbye to a Local Market
I don’t shop at nice grocery stores with bright lights clean floors and matching uniforms. Nope. The stores I go to are old and cruddy looking. These stores are going, and they’re not coming back. I believe that if we all make just a little effort to shop at our favorite shores, we can make…

Two Wrights Don’t Make it Rong
This was written on 12/16/2003, and emailed to a bunch of friends, family and co-workers. I pity them. In the nearly 21 years since I wrote this article, it is amazing to see all the changes that have happened to airline travel: Fees, More fees, Still More Fees, and Spirit Airlines.

Things I learned in Woodshop
When I retired, I was asked many, Many, MANY times what my travel plans are. Apparently, when you get the gold watch, you’re supposed to leave the country.

Feed Gisele Bundchen
So, Gisele Bundchen, supermodel, has a cookbook. Or a plea for help. I’m not quite sure. The book is entitled “Nourish Gisele Bundchen”.
