Tales of Tails


There's torture and there's Real torture!  It's rough!

Coincidences abound.   The young lady across the room has a Madison Marathon shirt on.   I ask her about it and she tells me of running the half marathon.  She is a recent graduate of The University of Wisconsin, Madison.   So where did she grow up?    Ann Arbor, the place of my birth.


A gorgeous way to start the day in my world


Zoey, so Cute!

Two days ago, Zoey and I are walking by the lake along Loyola University's campus.  I can see it coming.   A student is putting up her rainbow colored hammock for a nice morning in the sun.  Zoey shies away from it;  too frightening!   Other tough ones for her;  people (besides me) coming towards us with umbrellas;   shopping carts and other carts.

I am self-identified as a   Jewish man .    Growing up that meant being intellectual and not emotional .    Our Sabbath dinner was the only time in the week, when we couldn’t read at the table.    While I was “schooled” on feelings through my men’s work (, most significantly through helping co-found Men Stopping Rape, Inc. in 1983), it was only several months ago that I was able to first
