MEETING A PRESIDENT

Back in 1993, a lifetime ago, our world was different. We were different. Whatever future we had in mind, I think we didn't imagine the one in which we find ourselves. Us with President Clinton on Martha's Vineyard. It had been a hard year. Licking our collective and individual wounds, Garry and I wobbled tentatively … Continue reading MEETING A PRESIDENT

THE ” WAR OF THE WORLDS ” MYTH – BY ELLIN CURLEY

I went to a presentation celebrating the 80th anniversary of Orson Welles’ 1938 radio broadcast of H.G. Wells’ “War of the Worlds”. The reason this particular broadcast has lived on in history and is still remembered and talked about today is really quite interesting. The radio play starts with a typical program playing music from … Continue reading THE ” WAR OF THE WORLDS ” MYTH – BY ELLIN CURLEY

REAL REPORTERS – Garry Armstrong

Word Prompt: Credibility It's never been a one-man show. I logged more than 40-years in TV and radio news,  including 31 years at one Boston TV Station.  I'm always flattered when people say they remember me and my work. The body of work is considerable. Usually 3 or 4 daily newscasts, 5 to 6 days … Continue reading REAL REPORTERS – Garry Armstrong

TURNS OUT YOU DON’T ACTUALLY NEED A PRESIDENT – BY TOM CURLEY

I wrote this post months ago. It was originally called "It's A Crazy Idea, But It Just Might Work".  I thought it was a joke, but, it turns out it's working! Rather better than I thought it would. And now, with Trump back in the country ...  I’m not the first person to notice or … Continue reading TURNS OUT YOU DON’T ACTUALLY NEED A PRESIDENT – BY TOM CURLEY

GOD MAY WORK IN MYSTERIOUS WAYS OR MAYBE NOT – BY TOM CURLEY

I’ve been watching the coverage of Hurricane Harvey and the unbelievable flooding it is causing. I can’t help but think that God really, REALLY hates Texas. I’m 66 years old and I’ve never seen a hurricane hit land, turn into a tropical storm, go back to sea, hit land again, go back to sea again, … Continue reading GOD MAY WORK IN MYSTERIOUS WAYS OR MAYBE NOT – BY TOM CURLEY

NORMAL, NORMALIZING AND NORMALIZING NUTS – BY TOM CURLEY

Well, it’s been quite a week -- don’t we say that every week? -- and the words “unhinged” and “unprecedented” have been used even more than they were the week before. And the week before that. And the week before that. A while ago, actually two weeks into this crazed mess called an administration, I … Continue reading NORMAL, NORMALIZING AND NORMALIZING NUTS – BY TOM CURLEY
