FACEBOOK: MARK ZUCKERBERG OR JOSEPH GOEBBELS

JERSEY BOYS HIT THE HIGHS WITH INSPECTOR CALLAHAN

I didn’t see the play. The movie is my only reference, that and a lifetime of Frankie. Baby boomers take to Frankie Valli like hippies to the Dead, but it’s a closeted subject. It’s still to hard to decide if Frankie is cool, or not. If the high voice bothers you, don’t tell Neil Young […]

PORTLAND OREGON SHARING ECONOMY

Try It Bro, You’ll Like It. Baby boomers are into sharing? I don’t think so, but Portland baby boomers are getting a close-up of modern sharing. But let’s back it up a little, first. Young boomer non-conformists, known as hippies, shared everything. They shared rides, loves, and space. They shared food, drink, and music. Listen […]
