The Ice Rink Incident
I had been grounded for some pimply offense or other. I don’t remember exactly why. My mother forbade me to leave the house, that much I knew. But, I was fifteen and a half years old and going through a difficult time. Rambunctious behavior was the norm. Still, I had never deliberately and with malice aforethought gone against my mother. Not until the...
Hall of Shame
Hall of Shame Joan Jett and Heart did not make it in the Rock & Roll Hall Of Fame yesterday! How is that possible? You know I have a problem with that. I know that I’ll never make it to the Hall of Fame- but I’ll be damned if I’m going to sit around and watch (and keep my mouth shut) while my friends systematically get voted off the island after...

Thanksgiving is here!

I have so many rich and wonderful memories of Thanksgiving. Usually, in Baltimore, the weather at Thanksgiving is already getting ugly. The ice skating...

My son Ry Kihn has always loved the rock band Queen and plays Brian May’s guitar parts flawlessly. Recently he became aware of a contest by Roger Taylor, Queen’s drummer, to put together the all time greatest Queen tribute band in the world.

Thank God it was just a rumor
Today is the anniversary of the “Paul McCartney is dead” rumor when a disk jockey in Detroit started it on the air in 1966. Of course, it was completely ridiculous and Paul…
