‘Bulo’s Fave Tunes: June 2016
An extraordinarily diverse and rich mixture of compelling music this month. Something for (almost) everybody. Yes, you have to click on the link immediately below for the first one. It’s worth it, trust me. Astral Weeks meets Haiti: http://www.vuhaus.com/videos/lakou-mizik-wa-di-yo-world-cafe-version This one will be in my year-end Top 10 for sure: I took my first […]

I’ve assigned myself the task of trying to bring her to the Arden Gild Hall:
‘Bulo’s Fave Tunes: April 2016
A couple of these pieces lend themselves to just sitting back and letting the musical experience waft over you. We’ll start with one of those as it’s the perfect day for it: Brian Eno channels Lou Reed. In 2016. Who’da’thunk? Another ‘wafting over you’ song. And it’s GREAT: Had no idea this was a […]

‘Bulo’s Fave Tunes: March 2016…Volume I!
I can hear some of you scream, “Oh, no!” Well, Jason330 anyway. Fear not. Too much great music last month, one of the best months ever. Too much for one post. A real wide diversity, something for everybody. Enough talk: Blue-eyed soul from…Australia? Remember his name:
R. I. P. Merle Haggard

Moose Cholak’s Love Child
“Never judge a person until you’ve walked in their moccasins”-Quote from some American Indian guy who ought to go the hell back to where he came from. Sometimes we, and yes, by ‘we’ I include me, are too quick to judge. Take, for example, the lonely love child of former pro rassler and man mountain […]
Let’s Lighten Things Up – I Saw Deadpool Last Night
We aren’t a big “go out to the movies” couple. Normally, we prefer to stream – so we can rewind when we miss lines, grab a drink/snack and take bathroom breaks. That makes me feel old.
But last night we went to the IMAX theater on the Riverfront and watched Deadpool. I had some reservations – I didn’t like The Hangover, much to my son’s dismay – but ten minutes in I loved this movie. It hit the perfect note in sarcasm, silliness, and action. Yep, Mr. Pandora and I laughed out loud. It was clever and fun.
FYI: This is not a children’s movie. Not. One. Bit.
