Eulogy for Colonel William Goldsmith, M.D. The death of one’s parent is a humbling experience. This week, I have come to know my father beyond who he was as a caretaker. I saw him through the eyes of his patients, heard him through the words of his air force peers, and understood him through the […]

It is with regret that I announce the passing of my father, Colonel William Goldsmith, after a long battle with cancer. A veteran of the Army and Air Force and conflicts including Vietnam, Desert Storm and Operation Enduring Freedom, Colonel Goldsmith’s greatest work was found in his writing and unique brand of humor. In lieu […]

Quote of the Day

“I beg you, to have patience with everything unresolved in your heart and to try to love the questions themselves as if they were locked rooms or books written in a very foreign language. Don’t search for the answers, which could not be given to you now, because you would not be able to live […]

posted by Daily Post from Bluxome Street
2015 the best is yet to come. I look back at the 2013 and 2014 resolutions and see that I struggle with full year commitments. So let’s take a different approach.

SF is alive with drunk revelers in the Mission, fireworks along the Embarcadero, and cheering gay boys in the Castro. I love New […]

Life on the Beach
posted by Daily Post from Bluxome Street
Life is better at the beach, isn’t it? I mean, we believe in the philosophy so much that we made it our motto. Days seem to pass so quickly. It is nice to stop. And watch the shadows change as the sun rises, hits its peak, and then sets. A drink at the beach – […]

Joni Mitchell wrote the song, “Little Green” which is about the child the singer gave up for adoption. Mitchell later explained: “I was dirt poor. An unhappy mother does not raise a happy child. It was difficult parting with the child, but I had to let her go.” Art and the true meaning of art […]

Halston
posted by Daily Post from Bluxome Street
You cannot discuss fashion in the 1970’s without using the word Halston. The decade belonged to the designer. He put America on the fashion map. He stretched and manipulated perceptions, conception, and tested. Icons Liza Minnelli, Elizabeth Taylor, Martha Graham, Bianca Jagger and Candice Bergen introduced his collection. Warhol referred to the man as ”the art form of the 70’s.” […]
