I’m a hero

Someone told my wife that my name appeared on the crawl as one of Colbert’s heroes, in recognition of the fact that I ponied up some money for his Super-PAC. She figured that we’d have it on tape, as I record Colbert every night for our viewing next day, but alas, that was not the […]

Art on Groton Bank returns

Our friend Audrey Heard is no longer running the show, but Art on Groton Bank goes on. Besides checking out the art you can hike to the top of the newly re-opened Monument. It takes place at Fort Griswold State Park this Saturday from 10:00 AM to 4:00 PM.

(Why, do the folks from the interior think it’s appropriate to make us hicks get up at an ungodly hour […]

Drinking Liberally tomorrow

A reminder that the storied SE CT chapter of Drinking Liberally will meet again tomorrow night at 6:30 at the Bulkeley House, Bank Street, New London. So far as I know, there will be no top drawer special guests tomorrow, although there is a slight chance that Denise Merrill might stop by. If she does, […]

Hat in the Ring

Having lost my ill fated bid to replace the last Pope (and look what’s come of that!) I feel some trepidation in announcing my candidacy for the next Supreme Court appointment. Nonetheless, for the good of the country, I must put personal considerations aside, throw my hat in the ring, and place my name in […]

New toy

This post written on my new Ipad, which I’ve been playing with for the past few hours. Back to serious business tomorrow.

Drinking Liberally-April Fools Edition

Some might say we are fools every month, but lets put that aside. Tomorrow we’ll have a special guest: Kevin Lembo, candidate for Lieutenant Governor. As usual, the festivities are at the Bulkeley House, Bank Street, New London, starting at 6:30. Everyone and anyone who tilts left is invited.
