Donlight Savings Time (the Solution to Daylight Savings Time)

What the Heck is Tai Chi Walking and Why Is It’s Marketing So Effective?
If you’re like me, and by that I mean an overworked, overstressed, overeating, undersleeping, slightly overweight 50-something Male that spends a little too much time on Instagram and far too much time listening to Podcasts, then you’ve probably seen an advertisement for Tai Chi… Continue Reading “What the Heck is Tai Chi Walking and Why Is It’s Marketing So Effective?”
The Reese’s Oreo and Perfect Advertising
Regular reader(s) of my Blog know (a) I work in advertising, (b) I love Oreo cookies, especially Double Stuffs and have claimed I would eat multiple boxes of them if ever on death row and asked what I want for my “last meal”, and… Continue Reading “The Reese’s Oreo and Perfect Advertising”
Lent 2026 (Better Late Than Never)
It’s Lent 2026! Here! We! Go! Or … here … we … went. I’m writing this 10-days into Lent 2026 and, ahem, I’m off to a slow start (slow start = haven’t started). I haven’t listed my ridiculous Lenten promises and give-up’s (called “Penances,”… Continue Reading “Lent 2026 (Better Late Than Never)”

A Morning at WWJ Newsradio 950
I work in Radio. I capitalize the word “Radio” out of respect. I’ve worked in Radio for 28-years! Nowadays I guess I say I “work in Audio“, but between me and you … it’s Radio. Radio formats have come and gone. There’s no more… Continue Reading “A Morning at WWJ Newsradio 950”
What I Got!
I spend too much on lots of little things and flights of fancy, but I’m actually notoriously cheap. Frugal? Fiscally conscious? Basically, if I had a genie lamp and three wishes, one wish would be that every day I wake up and there’s a… Continue Reading “What I Got!”

Remember I already declared 2026 will be the Year of the Pen. Meaning, I switch from only using wood pencils for everything … work notes, journaling, sketching, etc … to using ONLY pens. Additionally, it’s going to be the “Year of” a few more… Continue Reading “Year of the ____________”
The 2025 Kowalewski Christmas Card Letter
2025 marks the 6th annual Kowalewski Christmas Card Letter. I’ve now written five of them, and Ada wrote one (last year’s). I think I finally found my “audience” for these letters. My Mom.
