What good is a specialist if you can’t see one?

The New Neo Posted on May 27, 2025 by neoMay 27, 2025

Today I was late posting because I was helping a friend with a medical problem. I have several friends who are quite ill, as I mentioned in another post. Several of them have Parkinson’s disease. Most people are aware of … Continue reading →

For Memorial Day: on nationalism and patriotism

The New Neo Posted on May 26, 2025 by neoMay 26, 2025

[NOTE: The following is a repeat of a previous post, slightly edited and updated.] The story “The Man Without a Country” used to be standard reading matter for seventh graders. In fact, it was the first “real” book – as … Continue reading →

The birds

The New Neo Posted on May 24, 2025 by neoMay 24, 2025

The other day I read this article: Fox News’ Peter Doucy hilariously dodged another bird attack outside the White House after being attacked by another feathered friend in April and we are with him in asking, “What’s going on?” It’s … Continue reading →

Clearing up a few more things about Biden’s cancer diagnosis; plus Scott Adams

The New Neo Posted on May 20, 2025 by neoMay 20, 2025

A sad note: Scott Adams says he has terminal prostate cancer. Adams is only 67 and a big voice on the right, and I’m certainly sorry to hear it. He says he has “the same cancer” as Biden, and although … Continue reading →

My 2-cents on Biden’s prostate cancer

The New Neo Posted on May 19, 2025 by neoMay 19, 2025

No, I’m not a doctor, much less an oncologist. But I happen to have a more-than-average amount of information about prostate cancer, due to the fact that I know – and am even close to – quite a few men … Continue reading →

Elusive muse: Suzanne Farrell

The New Neo Posted on May 17, 2025 by neoMay 17, 2025

All dancers are unique. But some are more unique than others. Suzanne Farrell may have been the most unique of all – that is, I’ve never seen another dancer who reminds me of her in the least. The closest would … Continue reading →

Melatonin: not so great?

The New Neo Posted on May 9, 2025 by neoMay 9, 2025

Here’s an article saying that melatonin has not been shown to help with chronic insomnia: In a culture that believes there’s a pill for every problem, melatonin seems just what the doctor ordered. It’s a natural hormone whose production the … Continue reading →

Sequel: the chicken and dumplings visuals

The New Neo Posted on May 5, 2025 by neoMay 5, 2025

For those who followed my chicken and dumplings saga over the weekend, commenter “Chuck” has thoughtfully provided this link to a photo purporting to be of the items in question. I’m searching my memory banks; it was a long time … Continue reading →

Laughter

The New Neo Posted on May 3, 2025 by neoMay 3, 2025

Did you notice on that Dave Barry Substack article I discussed yesterday that on the map of Florida he likens to the male reproductive system, he had labeled the body of water below it the “Gulf of Canada,” and also … Continue reading →

Mayday!

The New Neo Posted on May 1, 2025 by neoMay 1, 2025

[NOTE: This is a repeat of a previous post.] Today is Mayday. As a child I was confused by the wildly differing associations the word conjures up. It’s a distress signal, for example, apparently derived from the French for “come … Continue reading →

Suddenly, it’s 1960!

The New Neo Posted on April 26, 2025 by neoApril 26, 2025

I’ve never taken much interest in cars. I see them as a mode of transportation, and my concern is with drivability and safety features, with looks a distant third. Even as a child growing up in the 1950s I didn’t … Continue reading →

On stepstools

The New Neo Posted on April 12, 2025 by neoApril 12, 2025

The other day the bulb in the overhead light in my kitchen burned out. I had one of those long-life ones in there, so it had been years since I had needed to change it. Now, however, it was necessary, … Continue reading →
