2022, the year that wasn’t…
Wow, look at the date. December 13, 2022. The last post I made on this site was on March 21, 2022. That was the burger recap of 2021. I haven’t posted in nine months, but this site’s numbers have remained (mostly) steady. People have been at least looking at stuff here. People have asked where I am, if I am going to do more podcasts, and so on and so on. Let me address that here, now. I have been…

I just wanted the copyright issue out of the way. Finnigan’s Wake, a mainstay bar and restaurant downtown for 15 years, has announced it will close permanently on Oct. 30.

We have all spent time together in our yard, socially distanced, but not in a restaurant (at least not all of us) since before the pandemic. Last night was amazing. A lot of laughter. A lot of catching up.…
