  1. If the Phillies play the Yankees I will root for them.I have some Philadelphia connections .Two guys that I knew contributed to the game of Basketball in the city:Billy Cunningham and Ed Pinckney .
  2. It is raining in NYC and it will rain tomorrow and Tuesday.I am sure that Houston and the Yankees will be playing tonight.They will not stop the Padres -Phillies game because they have the same weather.
  3. Many years ago I went to visit a friend living in Houston who grew up in NYC.I was invited for what he termed a typical Texas breakfast .Much to my surprise it was bagels and lox.
  4. We have good lox in Long Island .When I was a kid living in Brooklyn every Sunday morning my father went to the local Appetizing store for lox and pickled herring.I loved the taste of the sauce.
  5. I grew up in the Crown Heights section of Brooklyn .The bagels were great. When my wife and I lived in Canarsie from 1967 to 2003.We used to buy bagels from Bell Bagel .We have been living in Long Island nearly 20 years and people buy from a bagel chain ,Bagel Boss.However,my wife makes a trek to still get Bell Bagel who are now in Long Island. My wife had an uncle who was a bagel baker in Brooklyn.
  6. I hope you are feeling a lot better,Greg.In 2018 I fell and broke a wrist several weeks prior to a cruise.Although the cast was off I had to wear a sling on the cruise and it limited my activities.
  7. Does your granddaughter know what she would like to do in Nursing ? For Toby it was a second career.She was initially a Social Worker then went back to college after our second daughter was born.She worked in several Brooklyn hospitals and also was a Visiting Nurse.
  8. I still believe that the Padres will beat the Phillies.Darvish is a better pitcher than Wheeler,Snell is better than Nola .Soto woke up .
  9. Perhaps Disneyworld is not a place to visit ?
  10. I no longer use a CPAP machine but when I did I was able to get distilled water on ships.
  11. My granddaughter who is in college flew to NY tonight to surprise my daughter for her birthday.Then the whole family came here to surprise Toby and I.The interesting thing is that Toby cooked and baked for the party tomorrow night and one of the foods she prepared is the favorite of my granddaughter who flew in tonight.
