My Lifestyle

March 21, 2017March 23, 2017 Jo Tango

The word “lifestyle” is used in a few ways. It sometimes is a euphemism to articulate a high-spend consumption rate. For me, I’m using it to write about what I do to strive for optimum productivity.

Climate Change

March 19, 2017March 19, 2017 Jo Tango

On Saturday morning, I went to a discussion forum. It was at the HQ of MassWildlife, the agency responsible for caring for our trout waters. They had a series of presentations, all of which were fascinating. One speaker focused on climate change. She reported that 30% of coldwater fisheries already have been lost, and, by

In a weird coincidence, I this afternoon attended Ash Wednesday services and just finished updating my end-of-life letter to my family. At the service, you’re reminded that “you’re dust and to dust you will return.” It is a traditional way to kick off Lent, which begins six weeks of prayer, fasting and alms giving. I

‘I Am Not Your Negro’

February 25, 2017December 18, 2018 Jo Tango

For Date Night, Mrs. T. and I went to see the documentary about James Baldwin. It’s very good. No wonder it has been nominated for an Oscar. We left the theater in silence and didn’t talk for a while during the drive back. It is a movie that requires a lot of post-viewing processing time.
