Generally speaking, I don’t give a rat’s ass about sport stuff. For example, I know that there are two football teams up here that both play in New Jersey, but I really couldn’t say for certain if they’re both NY teams. I’m pretty sure the Jets are NY. I can’t remember what the other one is [...]

So it turns out yesterday was SantaCon. It seems that Rocco and I were the only two people on earth (or at least the tri-state area) unawares of that fact. Just in case there are a few of you who also live under rocks, I’ll break it down for you.
SantaCon is a not-for-profit that collects non-perishable [...]

I don’t know if you’ve heard, but apparently there’s some sort of brouhaha about baseball these days. Rocco is spending hours in front of the TV and computer clapping maniacally and texting his fellow Yankee minions – even more than usual. It’s really cutting into my NCIS time I tell ya.
You see, Rocco kind of likes [...]

Rocco: I don’t feel well.
Me: Did you eat a bunch of shit at the game?
Rocco: Nope. I had a cheese steak…oh, and a cheese burger…and many beers.
Me: That sounds like a bunch of shit to me.
Rocco: But I didn’t eat any [...]

Maybe it’s just because it’s hotter than balls. Maybe it’s because I haven’t eaten brussel sprouts in over a week. Maybe it’s because my next appointment with Aloysius is only a week away. Maybe it’s because birds suddenly appear, every time, you are near. Regardless the reason, my brain is far from top notch form the [...]

The Big Day
Five years ago today I tricked that poor hapless bastard into marrying me.
We beat cancer together. He worked at least as hard as I did – probably more so. He arranged baby-sitters, missed gobs of work, and even gave up his ticket to see the last ever game at the old Yankee Stadium. [...]

While in Toledo, I decided to take my booty out for a jog before we spent another five hours in the car. I strapped on my swift scoots, grabbed Rocco’s ball cap and bounded onto the sidewalk.
Here’s an uncommon economic indicator for you – loads of people doing yard work on a Tuesday morning. It seemed [...]

Rocco's Weiner
As part of my plan to keep Rocco relatively happy while surrounded by the Magnificent Cluckers (Uncle Chuck’s name for the women of the Middleton clan), we scheduled two baseball outings. The first was an afternoon game at historic Wrigley field. Poor naive Rocco thought that organizing a trip to a baseball stadium would [...]

I recently had dinner with someone from Boston. Even worse, someone that was from Boston that still spoke fondly of the town. If you’ve spent any time with me, you know I hate Boston. Well, I don’t know that I hate the city itself. It’s quite lovely actually. I really enjoy taking the train trip when [...]

Sunny Hoboken
Another beautiful day in Hoboken – in fact I think we reached a record high. Sadly, my energy did not match the day. I could have easily laid in bed watching Lifetime made-for-tv movies and drooling all day. But seeing as the day was destined to be gorgeous, and my days of making out [...]
