Animusic – Fiber Bundle

More from Animusic because quite simply, I love it. To be able to hear and see music makes my spine go all tingly. Resonant Chamber remains my favorite, but I think this is a close second. The quality isn't quite as sharp, but if you don't have a huge monitor, you can go full screen … Continue reading Animusic – Fiber Bundle

DRIVE MY CAR

Who sang it best? The Beatles released the hit in 1965. It was the opening of the Rubber Soul album. Later, it appeared as the opener in North America on the Yesterday and Today collection, as it was dropped from the American version of Rubber Soul.

APRIL SHOWERS MAY COME YOUR WAY

Will they bring flowers? by Rich Paschall Maybe it will help the flowers here in the Midwest, but it keeps washing away the grass seed. Chicago has had the wettest Spring on record. From March 1st through April 20, we have had 10.63 inches of rain. That's more than double what we would typically get … Continue reading APRIL SHOWERS MAY COME YOUR WAY

I’LL BE ALL IN CLOVER

Which Easter Parade Is Best, by Rich Paschall It seems that it was good to be "all in clover" a century ago. It meant that you were doing quite well. Your cows were likely in a field of clover, not just some lousy grass or hay. They were eating well, and so were you, apparently. … Continue reading I’LL BE ALL IN CLOVER

THE FOOL ON THE HILL

Fool for Fool's Day by Rich Paschall You might think the title refers to Capitol Hill. You could be right. You will find a Chain of Fools there, no doubt. We know you think you Won't Get Fooled Again, but Some Fools Never Learn. You're just Fooling Yourself, and it's not "Cool To be A … Continue reading THE FOOL ON THE HILL

BACK WHEN STARS WERE STARS – GARRY ARMSTRONG

It's getting close to the Academy Awards time. This year, it's March 15, but the buzz is on about the contenders. Who'll win, who should win, who's been snubbed, who'll be wearing what, etcetera ad nauseam. This time of year used to be an exciting period for me. As a lifelong movie lover, the Oscars … Continue reading BACK WHEN STARS WERE STARS – GARRY ARMSTRONG

1969

I've had a few really great years -- and a few really awful ones -- but 1969 stands out as my favorite. The world seemed to spin faster, and everything was changing. We had amazing music and the most fun we'd ever have. It was before AIDS. Sex was fun, and the worst disease you … Continue reading 1969
