I'm not a huge fan of rock n roll (country is more my speed) but raising teenagers in the 80s rock n roll blasted through the house.
My daughter loved Bon Jovi and she's lost count of how many times she saw them in concert. Her...

James Higgins Sounds like a good thing. I saw a quite good documentary about all the music that came out of Laurel Canyon (in LA). It was done by Bob Dylan's son and featured interviews with David Crosby, Neil Young, & many others as well as a lot of music. Called "Echos of...

I am sure some of you can relate to this matter. "Death Stare" is best described as seeing something unknown that normal people cannot do. This is experienced by those who are in a near-death situation. They usually see things in...

I had sort of forgotten them. I was a fairly young girl when that became popular back in the hippie era. But today...I witnessed one.
Here I was at the pharmacy again, this time by some miracle, our local CVS had one of my son's...

James Higgins Sort of unreasonable of the old guy. Sometimes it happens that they can only fill part of a prescription until they get more meds. I remember the original sit-ins in the southern US against lunch counters that only allowed white people to sit there, then came...

On Friday, when I was waiting a bus from not so good place, I saw a man, perhaps of my age that had 2unfolded papers in his back pocket. I just sensed they will fall down on the ground and they did. He reacted very dramatically...

Rockridge is a "yuppie" neighborhood in Oakland, close to Berkeley. I can only imagine what it would be like to operate a stereo or guitar store there.
The neighborhood I worked in in Oakland was way worse than this one. Why is...

James Higgins Portland has been going down hill for a few years now as far as downtown crime goes, but is maybe improving a little. I read about five thugs attacking a couple in downtown here in Eugene. They beat up both the man and his wife on a weekend night last week.

I stumbled upon an Instagram profile of a poet. She has millions of followers and whenever she posts something—post or reel—she gets a huge amount of likes. Tens of thousands. Hundreds of thousands. Even millions.
I tried posting...

What a clown show. Today was yet another day in court for the Trump hush money criminal trial. He was angry that the crowds of protesters that he called for never materialized. He was embarrassed so then he started pressuring...

I’ve finished another jigsaw. This one also had a barn, Friesian cows and sunflowers in it and the pieces were big, almost huge in fact, so it wasn’t all that hard to do.
I bought home four jigsaws from my sister’s and now have...

I have been following the first Trump criminal trial fairly closely. It's about falsifying documents to pay off Stormy Daniels not to talk about her (I believe) 2006 "romantic" encounter with Donald Trump. Trump was instructing...

Last month my brother turned 50. His wife had a birthday party for him and we all spent a lovely afternoon at his home. All of my siblings seldom get together these days. There seems to always be someone missing, so this was a...

I am on my second cup of coffee and chilling to some Sunday sacred music. The program is called "A Joyful Noise" and it's on KDFC, the only remaining classical radio station in the San Francisco Bay Area. It's a public radio...

Marjorie Taylor Greene has represented Georgia's 14th Congressional district since 2021. It seems that Georgia's primary election for that district is May 21st. The horror is that no one is currently running against her. There are...

Gas prices have fluctuated rather wildly over the past couple of years here in the San Francisco Bay Area. I think they dropped to a low of about $4.19/gallon a year or so ago at my "discount" gas station, but then rose to $5.69 a...

Am I the only one who feels Donald "the Putz" Trump is being given way too much latitude in these court cases? The judges and DAs seem to give him every chance available and respect him way too much as a former president. I can...

James Higgins I'd like to see it too, when it is streaming. Going to theaters just does not appeal much anymore.
