So fellow travelers, it is not uncommon for me to check in online and find a post from someone announcing their decision to close out a social media profile. These announcements cite “rampant negativity,” “impersonal prattle,” “too personal revelations,” and a “lack of authentic connection” as reasons they consider the time spent on line as […]

Snoopy Meets Daft Punk: Finale at Herald Square
So fellow travelers, some of my readers have been asking what happened when the Baldwinsville Marching Band reached Herald Square. So we pick up the story as the kids march out of sight, rounding the corner at Columbus Circle, heading, via 59th street, for Sixth Avenue.
