Bars without alcohol: it’s a trend

The New Neo Posted on June 11, 2019 by neoJune 11, 2019

It seems to be a growing trend among young people: Getaway is a sober bar, a new kind of dry nightlife option that is cropping up in New York City. The idea is to provide outlets for people who want … Continue reading →

If your computer suddenly stops recognizing that there are new photos on your cellphone

The New Neo Posted on June 10, 2019 by neoJune 10, 2019

I’m writing this as a public service. I hope to spare at least one person from the same sort of 5-hour effort I recently went through when my computer suddenly and mysteriously refused to load any new photos from my … Continue reading →

Politics: do you care?

The New Neo Posted on May 31, 2019 by neoMay 31, 2019

I used to care much less about politics. I think I know why that was. I was younger and there was a lot more activity in my life (school, motherhood, taking care of a house, career stuff, all that jazz). … Continue reading →

Yahoo email degenerates further in the name of progress

The New Neo Posted on May 28, 2019 by neoMay 28, 2019

I know, I know—you’re going to tell me to change email addresses if I don’t like the latest iteration of Yahoo email. But it’s a royal pain to do so, and I’ve had my Yahoo email for so so long. … Continue reading →

Whatever amount of time I may think it will take to write a certain blog post…

The New Neo Posted on May 14, 2019 by neoMay 14, 2019

…I probably should just triple it and I’ll be closer to the mark. To take one example, here’s the post I wrote earlier today. It was based on a little article that caught my eye in the Guardian, about an … Continue reading →

What’s your first memory?

The New Neo Posted on May 13, 2019 by neoMay 13, 2019

BUMPED UP just for fun. [NOTE: I came across this old post of mine today, and thought it might be fun to repeat it.] I’ve always had an excellent recollection for early events in my life, with the peculiarity that … Continue reading →

These sneaky cell phone apps

The New Neo Posted on May 9, 2019 by neoMay 9, 2019

Yesterday I noticed that my cell phone bill was higher than usual by about ten dollars, and so I called the company. It turned out that a fee for downloading some app had been charged to my account. The person … Continue reading →

On being a blogger

The New Neo Posted on May 7, 2019 by neoMay 7, 2019

Someone once asked me about what I actually do as a blogger, and I replied airily, “Oh, I just write a term paper a day.” It was meant to be a joke, but the joke wasn’t so very far from … Continue reading →

“Support” can be an Orwellian word

The New Neo Posted on May 1, 2019 by neoMay 1, 2019

GRRRR! I am trying to decompress from dealing with some online “support” that is typical in that I suspect that, although it’s masquerading as a real live person with a real live first name, it’s actually a bot. I sent … Continue reading →

Mayday! Mayday!

The New Neo Posted on May 1, 2019 by neoMay 1, 2019

[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 →

Me and TurboTax

The New Neo Posted on April 15, 2019 by neoApril 15, 2019

[NOTE: I did my taxes by hand this year, as usual, and once again I began to wonder about halfway through why I do such a thing. Isn’t everyone just plugging numbers into a computer program these days, or using … Continue reading →

The word bun can have many meanings

The New Neo Posted on April 4, 2019 by neoApril 4, 2019

I saw this link at Instapundit: Man Buns: Proof Positive That Western Civilization Is Doomed. I thought it meant buns in the old-fashioned sense of butt. I imagined there must be some new men’s fashion that emphasized said area in … Continue reading →
