When I was a kid, my parents liked listening to Dean Martin. Dino had a beautiful, laid-back voice and sang numerous classics. He also had impeccable comedic timing, which is why he hosted his own variety show on NBC from 1965 to 1974. As the ratings for his show started to decline, NBC retooled it […]
Last year, my daughter took several of her college exams remotely due to the pandemic. She took one of her finals at our home in her bedroom. She had an online proctor that supervised her while taking the test and she had to pan her webcam around the room before starting to show that she […]
When my kids were little, they loved watching Barney the Dinosaur. Barney was great because he encouraged love, friendship, sharing and kindness. However, after hearing his theme song (I love you, you love me…) about 80 million times, it got to be like nails on a chalkboard. Apparently for parents today, that song is ‘Baby […]
It’s been a few weeks since the election and it appears as though Joe Biden will be our next president. However, Donald Trump has filed multiple lawsuits alleging fraud and he believes he will remain in office. If, after any recounts and lawsuits are resolved, Biden is deemed the winner, it will be almost certain […]
President Trump’s COVID diagnosis had a huge ripple effect throughout the political world. Due to his age, weight, gender and a history of a mild heart condition, he was in the higher risk category for the virus. He has since recovered and claims he feels 20 years younger. However, while he was at Walter Reed […]
The global pandemic has forced people to change the way they’re doing things, including causing many folks to work from home. Now that list may include Ruth Bader Ginsburg and her fellow justices. Starting earlier this month, for the first time in history, the U.S. Supreme Court began hearing arguments by telephone, as opposed to […]
When I was in college, one of the guys on the floor of my dorm had way too much to drink one night. He was so bad, we had to help take out his contact lenses and get him into his lofted bed. In exchange for our assistance, we decided to give this guy some […]
Dwayne “The Rock” Johnson is one of my favorite actors. I’ve been a huge fan of his since his professional wrestling days. I loved watching him raise his eyebrow, ask the fans if they smell what he’s cooking, and then drop “the People’s Elbow” on his opponent. After winning countless matches, he conquered Hollywood. He’s […]
When I was a kid, going to the mall was a huge deal. My favorite store was a kiosk that sold martial arts weapons, most of which were featured in Bruce Lee movies. Bruce Lee is credited for the kung fu craze that swept the nation in the 1970s and ‘80s. His movies exposed audiences […]
A few weeks ago I wrote about rapper 2 Milly and his lawsuit against Epic Games, the creator of ‘Fortnite,’ basically the most popular video game on the planet. 2 Milly sued Epic for copying his dance, the “Milly Rock.” As players advance in the game, they can earn “emotes,” or dance moves used to […]
