Cancer trends for boomers? Doctor, please. Like we need to know more about disease trends. The coronavirus pandemic and quarantine aren’t enough?

CRUCIAL CATCH vs SHUT UP AND PLAY

October 5, 2020 by

I like people who make the crucial catch, who root and cheer for others to make their crucial catch. I’m a sports fan. That’s what sports fans do. What else do sports fans do? They see shadows of sports everywhere; they hear echoes of sports talk radio before starting the car. Most of all, sports […]

QUARANTINE CUTE: WHY APPEARANCES STILL MATTER

April 27, 2020 by

Staying quarantine cute is worth dying for? At least protesting for? When I saw the folks protesting in cars and screaming about their hair, I felt their pain. Look, who among us wants to look our age if we can help it? I get that.

October 18, 2019 by

BOOK NOTES: AN UNCOMFORTABLE TASK BUT SOMEONE’S GOT TO DO IT

August 24, 2019 by

What struck me when I started writing book notes were the words from who knows where I found them, but here they are, “You’d better love the the book topic because at some point you’re going to hate it.” And it’s true, except I sort of hated it from the start since my book notes […]

HPV16 CANCER, UP CLOSE AND PERSONAL

June 20, 2019 by

Getting to know hpv16 cancer up close and personal the way Brent King and I have exposes the best intentions from some of the best people.

April 4, 2019 by

I’ve got a serious cancer recovery question in the vein of what came first, the chicken or the egg, after reading this. Maybe this isn’t the right place to ask, but come on blogosphere.
