Happy New Year!

Well, we made it. Through the holidays, along with various Internet disruptions, we've still made it and are still standing. Hopefully, now, things are back to normal, meaning a return to regular blogging, and hopefully soon, a radio program of some kind.

Christmas Light Displays

Each year, millions of us, across this great land, take to our vehicles at least once, during the Christmas season, to do nothing more than drive the neighborhoods and cul-de-sacs to see the various display of Christmas lights.

However, there are some that go way beyond the basic; using hundreds of thousands of lights to create incredible displays expressing the Christmas celebration. And now, with use of computers and even wireless technology, these displays are more elaborate, than ever.

Thanksgiving Is Coming

It has started. The preparations for annual feast-fest known as Thanksgiving has begun. You knew it was getting close.

After all, anything that mixes a large amount of eating, along with football, has to be good, even if the Detroit Lions are involved.

Coming Up…

It's hard to believe, but we are approaching the final few weeks of the first decade of the 21st Century. Has it been ten years, already? It certainly has. Much has happened, during that time, in the world, in our lives, and certainly in the music. Over the coming weeks, we are going to take a look back at the songs, and the artists who sang them, for each decade, starting with the fifties, and ending up with this decade.

Random Thoughts On This, That, And The Other

Some random thoughts about this, that, and the other. The Phillies forced a game 6, after winning last night's World Series, basically delaying the inevitable ending that will see the Yankees on top, making the city of New York and television sports executives everywhere, very happy.
