    Biff America: Slick or greasy (opens the original)

    Excerpt · English

    Read excerpt

    Jimmy O’Rouke was so cool we called him “Slick.” We met when I was working at a greyhound dog racing track. (Yes, I now know that many feel that sport is cruel. But at that time I didn’t know any better.) I was still in high school, Slick was in his late 20s. When asked his occupation, Slick would say “gambler” but, even then, I knew he had a job at a gas station. Slick gave my friends and me a glimpse into adult life. Unencumbered, unchaperoned — he was like us but with money, no school to sk

    Biff America: Protecting what is precious (opens the original)

    Excerpt · English

    Read excerpt

    “We have to protect your family jewels!” After decades of marriage I was shocked my bride thought I still had my family jewels. Following one of the driest winters on record with a snowpack as thin as my hairline, Summit County braced for a summer of wildfire danger. Reading about mandatory evacuations occurring across the country, my bride and I often discussed a plan of action were it to happen in our hood. Luckily, we have so far dodged the bullet fire-wise, but not so with poor air quality.

    Biff America: Scary as salad (opens the original)

    Excerpt · Critical tone · English

    Traffic was bad, as often is the case on a summer weekend. The white minivan was trying to take a lefthand turn onto a busy road. I was behind him, hoping to do the same. One of the benefits of having a work schedule as busy as Stephen Miller’s salsa dance instructor is I’m usually not in a hurry. Finally, there was a small opening. The van went for it, but before it could make a left turn it had to cross the road and clear the approaching traffic. In truth, it was not something I would have do

    Excerpt · English

    “If I said I could, I’d be bragging. If I said I couldn’t, I’d be lying.”So said Rocky Marciano, the only undefeated world heavyweight boxing champ. I know some reading this will consider what I’m about to say as bragging, but I’m going to just going to put it out there and say it — I’m excellent at picking up manure, dog manure specifically. Our home abuts open space and is a favorite dog-walking destination of the few local hoods in our area. Even though my bride and I are pet-less, I will

    Biff America: Matzah, tofu And Guinness (opens the original)

    Excerpt · English

    Read excerpt

    It was an ethnic doubleheader: a Jewish wedding and an Irish festival. Both events took place on the same day and less than 20 miles apart. It had to be about 30 years ago when I was back in Boston and invited to celebrate the marriage of my old friend Morgan Berg’s daughter. Morgan grew up a couple towns over from mine. We dated for the few weeks in high school when she was still accepting applications for boyfriends with no car and acne.My mother was skeptical — Morgan was Jewish, sophisti
