I’m currently resting my hand after a surgical procedure yesterday, so this blog post will be short. But I couldn’t resist showing this YouTube clip of a 98-year-old World War II veteran and how he expressed his feelings about Elon Musk. And by “expressed his feelings,” I’m talking about using a vintage World War II…

K-Chuck Radio: Who is Broken Peach, and why do I want to hear more?
Okay. As near as I can figure out, Broken Peach is a cover band. A cover band that takes pop standards and rock classics, glams them up, rocks them up, and performs them while wearing weird costumes. That’s all I’ve got. But man, when they take these songs and ramp them into overdrive … I…
Read MoreThe Albany Patroons and New York Phoenix finish the “Route 5 Rivalry” at two wins apiece
Last night, it seemed as if the Albany Patroons would start their coveted matchup with the division-leading New York Phoenix at a major disadvantage. One of their top scorers, Derrick Rowland Jr., has a busted hand. One of their bench players, Justice Brantley, has an injured foot. Their All-Star, Trahson Burrell, was scheduled to leave…
Read MoreK-Chuck Radio: The hit song by a man who was a Beatle for two weeks
Jimmie Nicol had a long and varied career as a session drummer. And it all culminated in an amazing story where, in 1964, he substituted for Ringo Starr during the Beatles’ tour of Australia. Ringo had tonsilitis and was unable to perform, so the Beatles recruited Nicol and he performed along with them during the…

I was at my girlfriend’s house over the weekend. She has a couple of bird feeders in the backyard, and I’ve found that her songbirds absolutely love this super-hot birdseed that’s mixed with hot chili sauce. The birds have no salivary glands, so they just eat the seed like it’s a normal day. But the…

I mentioned before about how my local car dealership was hitting me with “buy a new car and we’ll lock in pre-tariff pricing.” Well, now the tactic has changed. I’m now getting messages from not only my local car dealership, but from ANY car dealership whose paths and i have previously crossed – and, one…
Read MoreI miss you already, Frieda.
Frieda Tillman was one of my first connections in high school. She was my first true friend, and we remained friends throughout our high school years. We took many classes together, we participated in several extracurricular activities together, and we were both champions on the WRGB Answers Please quiz show from 1981. On Monday, I…
Read MoreIn honour of wins by Mark Carney and the Sudbury Five …
As you probably heard by now, Canada recently had a major election, and Mark Carney – who ascended to the Prime Ministership after Justin Trudeau stepped down – won a full term as the country’s leader. Basically, he rallied the country with a campaign that was part “elbows up” and part “we’re not America’s 51st…
Read MoreVision On – was this the first truly inclusive children’s show?
Today’s blog post will feature a very unique and sweet children’s TV show from the 1960’s-1970’s era – a British program that featured art, surreal humor, and all sorts of wonderful imaginative diversions.
