Top of the News

In case you’re the kind of person who doesn’t read mid-week news bulletins, I’ll repeat the news here.

First, the good news. I have taken the plunge and posted my love songs, plus a novelty song (Farmer’s Market Blues) and an inspiration song (Radical Acceptance) as an iTunes album called Lyrics by Paul. I would have been happy to give this music away, but iTunes requires a minimum price of 99 cents. All the songs are still available free on my website, but I’ve had a few people tell me they don’t have the technical skills to download music files to their phones.

Then the bad news: presidential misbehavior. As Dan Rather put it in a tweet, “The audio of Trump with the Georgia secretary of state. Wow. It’s like telling the Nixon tapes to ‘hold my beer.’” If you are behind the WaPost firewall, or haven’t used up your free articles, you can get the audio and a transcript of Trump’s call. Or you can hear the Georgia Call free on YouTube. It is incumbent on every U.S. citizen to know about this in detail.

  • Paul Schindler on TV
    Starting with an appearance on a WBZ public access program in 1972, I've been on local and national TV numerous times, mostly as a game show contestant (I appeared on the game shows Wheel of Fortune, Jeopardy, Scrabble , Win Ben Stein's Money and Merv Griffin's Crosswords) and as an author. I was also on the Computer Chronicles for years. Here are my journal entries for three of my game show appearances: Wheel of Fortune, Jeopardy, Merv Griffin's Crosswords

    Groundhog Day. I have created a fan site that is universally acknowledged to be the best on the Internet dedicated to this work of art.
