Constable: As pandemic giveth new skills, will it taketh away old ones?

Updated 1/28/2021 6:23 AM Staying in place during the pandemic has led some of us to discover new skills. Who doesn t know people who proudly posted photographs of freshly made loaves of bread they baked? But this week s snow made me realize the pandemic isolation also has eroded some skills, such as the ability to drive fearlessly on snow-packed roadways.   Honed by years of daily driving to the newsroom and across the far-flung boundaries of the Daily Herald circulation area to interview column subjects, I ve become immune to wet roads, icy roads, bitter cold, fog, blinding sun, tailgaters, pokey drivers, fast drivers, massive trucks, and drivers and deer who never use turn signals.

Constable: Geneva man has kept a journal for 30 years, and he's still making history

Updated 1/23/2021 4:53 PM Most of us trapped in this pandemic lifestyle can t remember what we did yesterday, let alone what we did last Sunday, or on this date last year, or on this date 30 years ago. Adam Gibbons knows. The 45-year-old Geneva man has been keeping a daily journal of his life since 1991.   I m at somewhere in the neighborhood of 3½ million words, and counting, says Gibbons, who is on track to record his 11,000th consecutive daily entry on Feb. 12. Not that he ever set any goals for the effort. My mother got me the 1991 journal as a Christmas present. I had kept journals sporadically prior to that, so I thought maybe I ll write an entry and see how it goes, says Gibbons, who was 15 years old at the time. That was January 2, 1991. The next day, I figured, I did one, might as well do two. And I got into sort of a pattern. I found it was good for the mind.

Ziel Feldman (right), Nir Meir and the XI (Illustration by Zach Meyer) “What’s the latest?” read the text that popped up on Nir Meir’s phone one Thursday afternoon in July. “Running out of time.” The message to the HFZ Capital Group managing principal was from Adam Gibbons, an executive at CIM Group. The lender was awaiting an overdue payment on $90 million of mezzanine debt it holds on four prewar Manhattan apartment buildings HFZ is converting to condominiums.  “On it,” Meir wrote back. “2 min.” Four hours later, a reference number popped up on Gibbons’ phone. It seemed the $2.3 million HFZ owed had been wired.
