Obsession – what the hell did I just see?

It's Saturday afternoon. I've taken some photos with some new camera gear, but I won't know how the photos turned out until the film is developed. No matter. I have other things to do. And I've heard a lot of word-of-mouth about this film Obsession. Sorry, I think Obsession and I think of that 1980's Animotion track. Yeah, I'm old....

The Saturday Blogroll Recap, May 30 2026

Last weekend in May, and probably the first decent weekend in a while for me. Lots of plans for photography this weekend, as I prepare for my Union Pacific 2014 "Big Boy" train chase. But before I do anything of the sort ... let's recap this week's blogroll, shall we? BLOGS FOR TRAVEL The Cawston Greenway blog, "Scorchio."...

C+C Music Factory, Freedom Williams, and the Atlanta Krunk

Pardon me for what might appear as a "shaggy dog" blog post, but after some recent news of late, I need to tell this story. A couple of days ago, there was an announcement of "The Great American State Fair," a 250th anniversary celebration in Washington, D.C. that would feature, among various singers and performers, such names as Morris Day and the Time, Milli Vanilli, C+C Music Factory, Vanilla Ice, and several other late 80's / early 90's recording acts....

The Royale with Cheese TV Club: Fleabag

The Royale With Cheese Movie Club is a blog category where I finally get around to watching films that apparently everyone else in the world has seen. It was named after my finally seeing Pulp Fiction about 25 years after everyone else. Of late, I've added a TV subsection to this blog category, so at some point when I actually watch…...

K-Chuck Radio: A trip-hop sound collage from the Avalanches

During my second run on WHCL college radio, I created a segment called the "Sample Example," where I played an original song, followed by that song's reinterpretation or sampled section in a more modern track. It was fun. And quite informative. So I want to do this again, based on a 2001 song I learned about just last week - a song that, once I heard it, I couldn't stop listening to it....

Kobe Bryant + Kyle Busch =/= Abraham Lincoln + John F. Kennedy

As a kid, I remember an old "Abraham Lincoln / John F. Kennedy" novelty penny. It was a standard Lincoln penny engraved with JFK's likeness in the dead space. And the penny was glued to a card that contained Lincoln-Kennedy "coincidences" that read like some vast century-long conspiracy. Both men had seven letters in their last names. Both men were succeeded by a President named Johnson....

The Hardy Boys – with guitars??

Depending on your perspective or your age group, if someone said "The Hardy Boys" to you, you might think of the hundreds of mystery novels featuring the adventures of Frank and Joe Hardy, all penned by the Stratemeyer Syndicate under the pseudonym of Franklin W. Dixon (who never truly existed, that's a mystery in and of itself). Other people might remember a late 1970's TV teen drama that starred Shaun Cassidy and Parker Stevenson as Frank and Joe Hardy, teen detectives (along with their friend Nancy Drew in a few episodes)....

My big school project, 2026 version

You remember those days, don't you? Going to the craft store and purchasing all the materials so that you could create a diorama or a display box or some incredible-to-you project for a science fair or for a "show and tell" day. We all did them, we all had varying degrees of success with them. And today - at age 62 - I'm working on one right now....

The Gallery Shot: LOOK WHAT’S ON THE DIGITAL GALLERY WALL!!!

So, bright and early this morning ... after working on my Saturday blogroll recap, I visited the digital Art Square Gallery New York and checked out the debuting "Black and White" exhibition. Oh my God these photos are incredible. There's no way my photos should even be considered for this show. But somehow, one of them got through. Here, click on this link and see them for yourself....

The Saturday Blogroll Recap, May 23 2026

Good morning everybody, and a blessed Memorial Day Weekend to all. Take the time to honor those who have passed on, those who served our country in times of turmoil and those who served on the homefront as well. And also take the time to forgive those who snipe at you on social media that "you're honoring the wrong person on Memorial Day, it's supposed to be for the dead, Veteran's Day is for the living," at which point you simply give up on their sorry selves....
