Halloween and Día de los Muertos are over, although the veil is still thin and you might still be getting messages from the other dimension. But it is Day 3 of Diwali, which is usually the most festive day … More A Hallowalimuertos Song
Hallowalimuertos, it turns out, is the gift that keeps on giving. For it turns that today, November 1, Cary, NC–the official founding site of Hallowalimuertoes–is not only celebrating All Saints Day and the start of Diwali (there is a large population of Asian Indians in Cary and its adjoining town, Morrisville), but also “Carey Day.” … More Hallowalimuertos, Day 2: Turns Out We are also Celebrating Carey Day

So I wanted to talk about that, but to be fair, I wanted to also talk about … More A Tale of Two Campaign Ads

I spent a lot of time meditating and … More International Day of Peace
As a child growing up in Northern Virginia outside Washington DC, Labor Day was never about the end of summer for me. It was always about going back to school. My brothers and I always loved school, so while we were glad to have a break over the summer, by August we were looking forward … More Your Labor Day Survey: What Is Your Favorite Sandwich?
This week, President Joe Biden became the 9th among the 46 Presidents we have elected since the beginning of our nation to decide not to run for re-election. I don’t know all the reasons previous Presidents made that decision, but I do know about two: our Founding Father, George Washington, and the only one to … More A Perspective on Current Events from History…via Broadway
