We've reached a sad state of affairs when I feel like a fop for wearing a sport coat for my afternoon walk. http://jonpeirce.ca/2021/01/27/occasional-observation-21/

The events of the past four years have transformed a guy who was meant to be a slightly leftish Atticus Finch with a Yankee/Maritime accent into more of a cross between Eugene Debs and Bakunin. Hopefully things will calm down enough now that there can be more of Atticus Finch in me, and less of Bakunin. We'll have to see. http://jonpeirce.ca/2021/01/23/occasional-observation-19/

This will be my third musical birthday as a senior. First came the "Beatles Birthday" (#64), and then the "Road Trip Birthday" (#66). Now it's my "Trombone Birthday" (#76). Spoiler alert: next year will be my "Old New York radio commercial birthday" (#77). http://jonpeirce.ca/2021/01/18/occasional-observation-18/

I have integrity; therefore I am inconvenient. http://jonpeirce.ca//occasional-observation-17-descartes-/

Any time you see me relying on the conventional wisdom, please call a doctor immediately! http://jonpeirce.ca/2021/01/13/occasional-observation-16/

I've just learned that as an individual between 70 and 80, I fall into the sixth category for COVID vaccination in Quebec. Vaccination for me and the rest of my age cohort should be available starting the week of March 15. While I might like to be a bit higher up in the lineup, it's good to see that I am in the lineup, and have some idea of when I might be called up to bat, so to speak. http://jonpeirce.ca/2021/01/11/occasional-observation-15/
