Every newscast I watched today opened with a story about either the Olympics, the ongoing (really?) John Edwards affair bit, or the death of Isaac Hayes. All interesting pieces, in and of themselves, and not bad news fare for a Sunday afternoon -- except for one thing. There's this… Read full post »
Every fall in my grandparents' hometown, they had a parade and a small festival, called the Frolic. I went to high school in this town, and our band was engaged to march at each Frolic festival, up and down the three commerical blocks of Main Street while playing such hits… Read full post »
