All About Phil

Phil Merens at the original house that Ruth built, not the temple of greed erected next store.

The Why of the Matter

This blog is not about cute cat pictures, though I got a cat and put him on my homepage because he’s cute.

These posts are devoted to musings on life, science, politics and personal history by me, Phil Merens. I live and write in the pretty countryside outside of Albany, NY. My goal? Be both interesting and funny. If the posts achieve one of those goals, wonderful. If you like a phrase inside a run-on sentence that would make my day. And if a reader thinks a post is funny and interesting, I would be ecstatic for a week.

If you are interested in seeing  my fiction, which will from time to time be posted here as well in snippets, or are interested in securing my services for any form of content writing, from marketing to grants and anywhere in between, feel free to contact me.
