WRITER TRAINING: PACK HEAVY FOR #writertraining

December 24, 2017 by

  Writer training is more than a classroom, more than paper and pencil, fingers and keyboard, more than listening.   It is sweating and struggling and wishing you’d made a different choice. Not about being a writer, but about those damn books.   The importance of jamming writing books into a heavy duty backpack, heavy […]

OREGON LINE TO CROSS: NO KITTY GENOVESE ON NW 21st

December 11, 2017 by

    Like every city in every state, the Oregon line is ‘Think before acting on street violence.’ Always a good idea. If you see something going wrong, someone getting hurt, call 911.   Professionals know how do calm things down better than I do, maybe you too. However, if you believe in civic duty […]

MICHAEL BECKER WALKS WITH PURPOSE

December 5, 2017 by

I like people who channel their problems constructively. They’re effective in making me feel like the whiner I’ve always taken pride in.   Michael Becker channels his problems constructively, and he’s a big boost. I found him in a search of cancer memoirs. We’ve exchanged pleasant emails. Have I told him I’m scouting for my […]

TO MEN, FOR MEN, FROM MEN

November 30, 2017 by

  I’m posting this to men in the Toughen Up section because all the groping news seems like a medical issue, or mental health dilemma.   What goes through a man’s head in the heat of the moment, when the secret button locks the door, when you finally ask, “How much do want this part?” […]

CANCER VIEW: WEED FROM THE OTHER SIDE

November 26, 2017 by

My cancer view had more weed hope later than sooner with DAG approved brownies. It started with a look for an alternate route for a cure instead of chemo road.   What I found was a log of death in men who’d gone the alternate route instead of chemo, then switched to the hard stuff […]

Neck Cancer And Alcohol Consumption: U.S. vs Belarus

November 9, 2017 by

  Neck cancer? In Belarus? Bela-where? Either check a map or be satisfied that Belarus is an eastern european country that used to be part of the Soviet Union.   And they drink. A lot. Belarus scores #1 on Market Watch’s survey of ten drunkest nations on earth. #2 is Republic of Moldova, #3 Lithuania, […]

Travel Bans From History, Who Should Be Banned

November 2, 2017 by

    Travel bans tend to be specific in terms of where to go and where not to go.   Travel bans say one thing: Don’t go there, girlfriend. Stay away, pal.   Like a dress code in the NY disco dancing prime time of the late ’70’s, while punk rock was getting ready to […]

Betrayal Pain: What Pill Takes Away That Ill

October 24, 2017 by

    Getting stabbed in the back by someone you trust isn’t something you take to the doctor, unless they specialize in betrayal pain.   So make sure you see a talking doctor who understands the situation. Better yet, make sure you understand before seeking a remedy.   A back ache is different than a […]

HPV16 Cancer Side Effects Include Blogs And Memoirs

October 4, 2017 by

    If you chose to be ‘The Face’ of anything, few would choose cancer of any kind. Be the face of something grand, something happy, something exciting. But cancer?   Add ‘The Face’ of an STD that leads to cancer and you’ve got HPV16 cancer. The same culprit for cervical cancer in women leads […]

HPV16 VACCINE IN CONSUMER REPORTS

August 19, 2017 by

The HPV16 vaccine article in Consumer Reports pushes hot buttons across the board. It’s easy to understand why.   I’m a father of two, but it’s more than that. Too many parents are overwhelmed with the joy of their own reproductive skills and the bundle of joy as a result. I know I was.   […]
