A further update; it appears they would rather have a fox run the chicken house.

…. since most of my friends voted the way they did, I really had to get to the root of what they really were voting on. using my thesis that “you would never let your family do business with him or yourself do business with him or put yourself in a compromising position with him”,…


I may have sorted this out for myself, and why the election went the way it did.

We all live in our own little bubbles and have our own …. biases. I have them. I would never do business with someone who bankrupted over … 6 corporations declaring bankruptcy … closed 15 companies. Many with unpaid contractors …. I understand 1, but more than that is malicious. 2. I would never relate…


Old Howard Theory, AJ Theory but it still lives. “It is not what you know, but who you know”

While we visited camp for the first time back in July of 23, to close on the house, we were simply playing PB during “open play”. It was fun, enjoyable and Stone Creek has a big group – and they were putting the finishing touches on 8 new courts. About 8 weeks later I went…


NYT – The Benefits of ‘Wise Selfishness’ –

A story about the nyt happiness writer and his visit to the Dali lama and a conversation about selfishness – My Howard Theory on this is age old. I learned it and have been practicing it forever. It is one of the 3 or 4 base tenets of my life. (My earliest memory, maybe age…


Boston Globe – Title IX and what to do …

Girls rule and Boys drool – ( I had to look up how to spell drool – I am definitely a boy, just a really old boy). Way slower and than my sisters, cousins, the neighborhood girls, in both education and sports … until I wasn’t, it just took way longer. Now that I play…


Adaptability, Age and Pickleball.

As I get older and older …. This is my birthday week …. I have begun to really like this word. It says “easy going, flexible, able to adjust” It also says, “Change it up, I’ll consider it …. give it a try, move forward. In Pickleball context, gauge the competition …. sometimes you slam,…

Pickleball is great once again … I already miss my FL PB friends and I haven’t left yet.

We are starting our winter 2022 wind down. Only 2 weeks until our first trek back to MA. I like to drive, see some backroads, small towns etc… It rare that the 3 of us actually play together often as PB sorting doesn’t work so smoothly. We can have anyone as a fourth …. as…


WSJ – Article lead, Tom Brady not ready for Pickleball. PB is everywhere, Hurry up Tom, we’re waiting.

Hurry up Tom, we’re waiting, PB wants you. Watch some videos on YouTube. I’m sure your hand eye coordination is pretty good. We have courts in Ocala FL, and Sturbridge MA. I’ll get a few guys, my wife will take on anyone, bring the kids, we have a pool. Good times .. Good times.


Traveling for a week, from FL to AZ. Pickleball plays a pivotal roll again.

We have had a spectacular time … too much to write at the moment. I’ll leave you with how PB allows you to make new friends at a moments notice. We spent the morning roaming the Saguaro National Park in Tucson. There are really no words to use, that give enough thanks, to the Park…
