While going through my wedding officiating files for my next ceremony in April, I came across this picture I was beginning to think was lost to time! Me, my brother Jim, and our Mom in NYC, circa June 1978! Little did I know I'd be wearing that shirt for at least a week!! Thanks, Air France!!

Miles is now the age I was when I started reading Spider-Man, and Marvel Comics, regularly. He doesn't read the comics, per se, but is an avid player of the Marvel Rivals video game (along with his sister. So he and I had a *lot* to talk about this trailer earlier today!! 😁 youtu.be/Tt5F0DQoWJA?...

DEEP CONVERSATIONS WITH MY SON IN THE A.M. MILES: Hey, Dad, did you see GameStop said the Sony PlayStation 3, the Xbox 360, and the Nintendo Wii U are "retro consoles"? ME: Huh. MILES: Does that make you feel old?? ME: No. My knees make me feel old. (particularly the right one!)

MILES SHOULD KNOW BY NOW Moving a new (to us. It's a thrift store find) coffee table into the living room, Miles notices it's crooked. MILES: So are you going to straighten it up, or leave it askew? ME: Leave it what?? MILES: Askew. ME: Gesundheit! MILES: ......I'm not gonna help you anymore. 😄😄😄

Happy Birthday to another of my comedy/acting heroes, Peter Sellers. I was crushed when he died in 1980. My younger brother, trying to be sympathetic, said: "Well, look at it this way, at least there won't be any more bad Pink Panther sequels". 'Didn't really help.

A Mourning Dove chose the hanging plant facing my front door to make its nest. Looks like the keeds and I will be coming and going through the garage for a while!

youtu.be/Hhm1zZAaFsQ?... Now I've got *two* sick teenagers, and their Mom said she wasn't feeling so hot either when I saw her this morning. Not to jinx it, but: "I'm the sole survivor"!

DEEP CONVERSATIONS WITH MY SON IN THE SCHOOL CAR CIRCLE MILES: Are you aware your body is basically a haunted house? It has a skeleton, a ghost, and blood on the walls. ME: And *this* voice. (in my best Paul Frees) "Welcome, foolish mortals...(proceeds with the Haunted Mansion Ghost Host monologue)

After "Uncle Sam" L. Jackson, for me, the best part of that execrable halftime show were the guys in white turtlenecks channelling Mort from Bazooka Joe!! 😆😆😆

Since the late '80s/very early '90s, I've watched late night TV with a book/comics on my lap, and would read during the commercials. But tonight, as with every Super Bowl, I watch the commercials and read during the game!! 😁😆

Feb. 6, 2025. Third anniversary of the scariest Sunday morning of my life (so far). As strokes go, it could've been worse. Much worse. But between you and me, I still get uneasy when I'm home alone without the keeds on Saturday nights! Cheers to recovering!

Mando the Gerbilorian, Miles and Lily's 2019 birthday present from their mother, has been resting in peace in the backyard since earlier this year. Today, Liz and the Twinses dropped off the next generation of domestic rodent. My good friends, may I present the hamster: Hamlet, Destroyer of Worlds!
