About this blog title

I cannot tell you how many times I have shown up at events with a couple of cameras around my neck, a gadget bag full of odds & ends and a lighting kit and have been asked that question. If it happened once every few years, that would be one thing. But it happens a LOT. It's like getting pulled over by the police and he's standing there with uniform, gun, flashing lights and asking him "Are you a cop?" I would love to come back with a witty reply, such as "No, I am Jesus. Don't you recognize my beard?" However, I cannot be that rude.

March 25, 2022 I find a 36 year old check, uncashed

 I find a 36 year old check

A check for guitar gig from May, 1986 that I never cashed. 

 Today I found an unopened letter amid some old notebooks and memorabilia that has been stored in my garage for many years. Inside was check written out to me for $25.00, payment for a guitar gig I did at Jefferson Community College, Watertown, NY, back in May of 1986. I can't believe that I never opened it. Never cashed the check. It's crazy. 

The event was for graduating nursing students receiving pins. The bank was Marine Midland Bank which is no longer in operation.



A check from 36 years ago that I never cashed. Found it while cleaning out the garage and throwing useless old records & memorabilia away.

 On another note, It was a grey, cloudy day in Chaumont, NY. Temperature stayed around 40 degrees. I raked up part of our yard. That was good exercise. We had chicken, French fries and peas for dinner. I believe it's the 28th day of the Russia - Ukraine War. Russia has taken quite a beating. Ukraine has suffered a great deal of damage. It is also the 3rd day of applying Efudex cream to my forehead as treatment for actinic keratosis.
