Sometimes, the best way to start your day is with a fresh cup of conversation…with an old friend.
This morning, on the train in from LI after the first night of Sedar with family, I bumped into an old friend from way back in the day.  Not even High School or Jr. High back.  Elementary school [...]

A-la Peter King’s Sports Illustrated mini-column (“Things I Think I Think”), here’s a few Mr. Josh Hyman “Things I Know I Think.”
1.  No matter how much you think you know, you usually have no idea.

3.  No matter what [...]

Just did the ‘Uh-Oh Dance’ the other day.
You know that dance.
Its the one when you bump into someone who you had a falling out with some years back, and you’re in a situation where you have to talk…She’s coming this way, nobody in-between you to cut her off…and all you can think is, “Uh-Oh.”

Ok, here we go…the 2010 Superbowl Potential Matchups.  Really, its all about the story.  That’s what sells.  Nobody in America wants any specific team in the Big Game unless:

After winning the “Audience Favorite” vote at the First Annual IFNY Monologue Slam competition (Kumble Theater, LIU-Brooklyn, 11/21/09), I [...]

I love watching NFL Football on Sundays.   I love Law & Order: Criminal Intent.   HBO programming is usually pretty great.   Some reality TV is interesting (Top Chef is cool,  Biggest Loser is inspiring and Jersey Shore gives me a warm &  fuzzy feeling on the inside of my belly.)  I even hate to admit it, [...]
