QOD
this has nothing to do with Memorial day… A very good friend of mine asked me and my wife to watch his dogs when his brother in law isn’t over there. We sort of have it arranged to let the dogs out and run around the yard when the bro in law ins’t home. He […]
Report From New England
I am in Connecticut for the weekend visiting friends, just a mile from the Quinnipiac River (I may go drink from it for luck). Yesterday we spent the day with the kids at Lake Compounce Amusement Park. It was apparently Autism Awareness Day at the park and I spent some time talking to some of […]
QOD
Am I less of a patriot if I don’t give two craps about memorial day? But that isn’t the real QOD either, Because well it’s not true that I don’t give 2 craps. I sort of take that back. I propose we have seperate but equal Memorial day celebrations. On one side of the parade we be […]
Bill Lee AWOL

My Commute
It was a nice morning so I rode my moped to the Middletown North light rail station. After I locked my moped in a bike locker, I stood on the platform looking at the people waiting for the northbound train. I have to be honest and say that while I was please to see so […]

Mr Celery
I don’t know if this is true but someone told me the story of the origins Wilmington Blue Rock’s other mascot, Mr. Celery. It seems when the Blue Rocks were just getting started here in Delaware – before the stadium was finished – they rented some office space. In that office space they found a […]
