Chag Sameach to all who celebrate. Happy Hanukkah everyone. #Hannukah

Happy 100th birthday, Dick Van Dyke. A living legend. #DickVanDyke

Every person is entitled to equal rights and equal protection under the law. #AmnestyInternational

MAGA has pissed off Weird Al. We have crossed the Rubicon. youtu.be/COZcKrUx1Ts?...

Happy birthday, Peter Buck. The man can make a guitar sound like a train of hope and fury coming down the tracks. He also has an encyclopedic knowledge of rock’n’roll.

Little Richard once said, "If Elvis is the King of Rock 'N' Roll, Lordy, you're lookin' at the Queen!" Truer words have never been spoken. Happy Birthday, Mr. Penniman, today's music is flavorless by comparison.

Evidently, the Messiah is Frank Zappa?

November is in the books.

It's World AIDS Day. Back in the 1980’s we had a president that would not even utter the word “AIDS” and I saw too many good people die. It is always the right time for action.

Hahaha

Happy Thanksgiving. I hope your celebration is fit for a King.

If this isn’t a Thanksgiving song, it should be. youtu.be/Hg9coYqoPQ8?...

Happy birthday, Clem Burke. You are missed. #ClemBurke

Happy National Espresso Day. #NationalEspressoDay

Happy birthday to the Scream Queen herself, Jamie Lee Curtis.

Damn. Rest in Peace, Randy Jones.

Passion is no ordinary word, indeed. Happy Birthday Graham Parker. How does the original "Angry Young Man" age gracefully?

Forty-seven years ago today, my childhood officially ended.

Happy birthday, Martin Scorsese. The dude can make a film.

Happy National Drummer Day 2025. This is Clem Burke, my favorite (amongst others). Who is yours?

Far Side Friday, another trip around the Sun edition. #FarSideFriday

This is 62. I don’t feel older. Happy birthday to me, Guy Rule, Cary Baker, King Charles, Louise Brooks, and Jawaharlal Nehru.

As a nerdy kid with a huge record collection, I admired Cameron Crowe. He was a teen-ager living my dream: rock’n’roll music critic. He married a rockstar, wrote for Creem and Rolling Stone, ended up making movies. Still envious. Tonight, thanks to my sister Theresa, we’re seeing him speak.

Happy birthday, Jean Seberg. So much talent, so much beauty.

Happy birthday, Neil Young. Keep on rockin’ in the free world.

This is a much younger version of my Dad, he's 18 in this picture and about to ship out to the Philippines in 1945. For all who served, our allies too, Happy Veteran's Day.

Not a bad movie. A bit long, but interesting.

Sunday night, documentary night.

Happy 109th Birthday Walter Cronkite. You have no idea how much you are missed, good sir. And that's they way it is... Go vote, everyone.

Explaining the Handmade’s Tale to the author of the Handmade’s Tale takes some next-level stupid.

On this day in 1957, Laika the first Earthling rocketed into space. Evil, cruel Soviet bastards left her in space. #Laika

October is in the books.

Far Side Friday, Happy Spooky Day, edition. #FarSideFriday

Tamar Berk’s album release party at the Casbah. Copious amounts of beer followed by donuts on the ride home. I am more yeast than man.

Prayers for Brian Setzer. The coolest dude I ever met. #BrianSetzer

Happy National Cat Day. This is Gizmo.

Happy World Animation Day. youtu.be/36gqBoUSJ4M?...

Happiest of birthdays from all the dead parrots, John Cleese.

Classic film and Thai food night with Shannon.

The Dodgers are in big trouble. Geddy Lee, age 72, repping the Blue Jays. Note the Hebrew Orphan Asylum baseball shirt (his mother is a Holocaust survivor), and he’s drinking a Rush Brew.

Things are off to a flying start.

Far Side Friday, seriously, FDT, edition. #FarSideFriday

Why this band wasn’t huge is a crime against humanity. youtu.be/N1rjdfDE0NA?...

I’m too angry to try and be funny. Thanks, Tr*mp. You defaced the People’s House.
