“Now I Had The Time Of My Life, And I Owe It All To You”
Or, How Macular Degeneration Changes Your Thinking Even Before It Changes How You See The World One of my favorite movies ever is “Dirty Dancing.” It takes place at a Borscht Belt-style resort of the late 1950’s/early 1960’s, has a musical score full of songs to which I danced in my early teens, and characters who […]
Hidden Talent
As some of you know from my tweets, I tap danced last night as part of a very special adaptation of a classic Fibber McGee and Molly radio show at our annual fundraiser, Radio Daze: OnStage With Florida Rep. It was quite a night, a successful and really fun evening, with many thanks to the […]
InFullBloom’s 4th Anniversary — Where To From Here?
Celebrating Our 2010 Anniversary Over Dinner In The Languedoc-Roussillon, France I launched my blog about 4 years ago, 11-8-2009.

She died […]
Painting And HR Technology — Yes, There’s A Connection
Wish This Were One Of Mine! One of my goals for 2013 is to spend more time painting, particularly illustrated journaling. The particular techniques of interest are to do quick, annotated line drawings and/or watercolor sketches of whatever takes my fancy as we travel/play/go boating/whatever within an easily portable bound journal. I also want to […]
Reprise: Choices, Compromises, Serendipity and Sh#t
Reflecting on what might make a great list of 2013 predictions — beyond those I’ll be discussing next week on my first videocast – I realized that I’d either be repeating a list of hot topics with which you’re already familiar or showing my ignorance (it’s getting worse not better with the explosion of relevant knowledge). So, […]
“I’ve Looked At Clouds From Both Sides Now”
Coming of age in the 60′s, I was so blessed to be there when some of the greatest folk music ever was written and performed, often by the same person. It was the Golden Age of singer/songwriters, and Joni Mitchell was one of the best. We all played guitars then and sang of ending the […]
