Father, husband, storyteller and "monkey boy" as far as our dog and cats are concerned.

I write Potentially Focused, a LinkedIn newsletter sharing information on career & personal growth for people who work in TV & storytellers of all kinds AKA everyone.
So, kids on food stamps will go hungry because republicans are keeping the government closed & a duly elected rep from office to avoid releasing the Epstein files to protect trump whose biggest priority is wasting millions of dollars destroying the East Wing for a tacky ballroom in his own honor?

We are “The United States of America.”

trump has never done anything to unite us even when it would have been simple to achieve. Covid killed people in both parties, mindless gun violence continues to kill Ds& Rs And yet nothing. Why?

Keeping us divided keeps the cash rolling into his bank account

Route 208 in Bruce Springsteen's NJ. Yesterday, PM rush hour. Lots of support for this pro-Vet message from Indivisible.

Thanks for all the car horn beeps, thumbs up and waves of support!

trump’s appeal will always be puzzling to me, but this piece nails it.

People from lots of different parts of our society believe they’re excluded by the status quo.

If we Democrats want to win again, it’s kind of simple. Think big, be brave & offer a vision for real change & a fairer society.

Despite the rain... 8,000 people at a Hands Off rally in Montclair, NJ. And surprise guest, Senator Corey Booker.

Good to be surrounded by people who want America to work for ordinary Americans. And to see fear & anger turn to resolve to work for positive change.

Something good is brewing.

A 1.5% win should not give you the right to wipe out 11 trillion dollars from the stock market on purpose.

How does that help the ordinary American?

It doesn't & trump doesn't care.

Please consider joining us at a Hands Off Rally today.

Having been involved in naming lots TV shows, I'm feeling sympathy pains this AM reading that the trademark office rejected "Utah Yetis" as the name for Utah's new NHL team.

Naming is one of the toughest parts of the development process. And in my experience names that seem perfect often are taken.
Trademark office rejects 'Utah Yetis' team name
Utah Hockey Club said it still expects to announce a permanent name and identity before the 2025-26 NHL season despite having "Utah Yetis" refused by the U.S. Patent and Trademark Office.

Said with no malice, it may turn out Daniel Jones is just not an NFL caliber starting quarterback, but this is a classy move.

Sincerely wishing the Giants’ former QB a great holiday season and that he’s able to make the most of his talent moving forward.

I’ll always love my Giants, but as a football fan stuck with NY market games this year, it’s refreshing to watch two actually competent offenses face off in the Rams/Bills game.

Maybe football doesn’t have to be so hard after all?

Giants fan TV football hell is…

Giants down 30-0 on one channel.

And Cowboys and Commanders in a low scoring battle on the other channel with the Cowboys leading.

What are we supposed to watch?

Down 23-0 at halftime and Baker Mayfield mocking Tommy Cutlets’ hand gestures.

Hard to believe the Daboll/Schoen regime stated with a playoff win and a coach of the year award.

I’m offended as a football fan and an Italian American…

Texas 1988. Yankee manager Billy Martin gets in a fight at a strip club. Ends up badly bloodied. Stepping out of a cab at the hotel in the middle of the night, he finds the entire team & owner outside.

Busted.

A fire alarm had been pulled.

Timing plays a huge part in life.

The last time the Jets won a Super Bowl, The Beatles were playing live gigs & 747 Jumbo Jets weren’t flying yet.

When the Browns last won a title, Churchill was still alive, Kareem Abdul-Jabbar was known as Lew Alcindor and a moon landing was still a dream.

Fun matchup tonight.

Watched Rudolph tonight with the family. Much has been said about how terrible Santa & Rudolph’s dad are to him. But no one ever calls out Rudolph’s mom for taking Clarice on a months long search for him without asking her parents first. She’s lucky all ends well in the Rankin Bass universe.
