A welcome to readers

As a resident of this planet for more than four fifths of a century, I have enjoyed both successes and disappointments in a wide variety of vocations, avocations, and life experiences. This blog satisfies my desire to share some thoughts and observations--trenchant and prosaic--with those who are searching for diversions which are interesting, poignant and occasionally funny. I also plan to share recommendations about good/great movies I've watched and books and articles which I've found particularly mind-opening, entertaining, instructive. In addition, I can't pass up the opportunity to reflect publicly on how I am experiencing the so-called Golden Years. Write anytime:

AN END TO AMERICA AS WE KNOW IT??

Just watched Dr. Neil DeGrasseTyson, one of my favorite thinkers, lecture a congressional committee on the need for America to "dream" again. What he says, I think, also pertains to individual lives--that is, to people who see "today" and "now" and "here" as all there is for them.  Check it out.
