Video of car dealership being vandalized (open in new window) I would like to hear opinions regarding this young adult vandalizing a car dealership. The video (from 3:00 thru 4:10) shows him jumping up and down on a car’s windshield, finally busting it in such a way that he then rips the windshield right off, […]

Columbia House (Record/CD mail order) closing
Columbia House closing article (open in new window) This new brought back some good memories: First, of my buying classical CDs via Columbia House in the ’90s, then, looking at the accompanying picture of the “8-track” tapes – had plenty of those in the ’70s [not only did I have an 8-track stereo in my […]
Black and White photos of Lailah
There is a reason why I don’t edit my photos that I take. It takes a LOT of time and mental effort – there are just TOO MANY choices of things to do – like adding special effects, lighting, exposure, contrast, etc. If anything, I may – like I recently did for my recent b-day […]
Republican debate

Children and leashes

Bird’s eye Video of Detroit and my thoughts
Great and interesting video – great background music – much too short. Bird’s eye view of Detroit (opens in new window) Sorry to see the beginning parts: drives home the point that certain (industrial & residential) areas are still like a former war zone. Enjoyed the middle/ending portions a lot better with “hope” of development/revival […]
The Macarena
I’m sorry, but “Macarena” is still my all-time fav song & music video…just had to share this with everyone today – lol. YouTube music video (opens in a new window) [ok, maybe not my all “all-time” fav, but let’s say my all-time fav from 1996.]
