"Forget your perfect offering There is a crack, a crack in everything (there is a crack in everything) That's how the light gets in~" ~Leonard Cohn Well, one of my students recently had his first child. To be clear, his wife did most of the work, but still he became a father—at least until a … Continue reading It’s That Time of Life

Back To School Blues

August 16, 2017August 15, 2017 / Campo / 3 Comments

Summer time! A time when both the kids and teachers are set free from the classroom. A time to celebrate warm weather, swimming pools, and family vacations. Rhythm and routine are relaxed in most families, and time slows way down, except, it seems for retailers, who gleefully start to promote back-to-school shopping before you can … Continue reading Back To School Blues

Why I Like Baseball

August 9, 2017August 9, 2017 / Campo / 6 Comments

Baseball. It’s all about playing catch and throwing strikes. Baseball is revered by fans and trashed as slow and stupid by non-fans. I know you’re wondering where Campo stands on this topic…so, without further delay…Batter Up. In these musings, I am writing about baseball and softball. The games are not the same, but I like … Continue reading Why I Like Baseball

Kids These Days or How Did I Survive Childhood

Kids these days have it so easy. I’m sure you’ve heard this lament. It could be because I work on a college campus, but I hear it a lot. And between you and me, Odd reader, I don't agree. Growing up now is so much harder than when I was young. Let’s discuss! I'll build … Continue reading Kids These Days or How Did I Survive Childhood

Nantucket, Hurricanes, Poor Cousin Craig

September 10, 2016September 11, 2016 / Campo / 18 Comments

There once was a man from Nantucket. How many stories have begun that way and ended well? I’m guessing not many.

How many days or weeks have you started … Continue reading Nantucket, Hurricanes, Poor Cousin Craig

  The resistance of human beings to change is legendary. Some people will do anything to avoid it, including wistfully wishing to return to the “good old days.” But, as Billy Joel reminds us, “The good old days weren’t always good and tomorrow’s not as bad as it seems.” (Cousin Kb gave you her opinion … Continue reading Odd Point of View “The Good Old Days”

The Olympics Are Odd

August 20, 2016August 21, 2016 / Campo / 16 Comments

The Olympics have the unique power to make people care about things they would never think about at any other time. If someone walked up to you and said, “I can do three backflips on a beam three inches wide,” you might respond with, “That’s great, Susie.
