It's Still Rock and Roll To Me
by Steve West on March 7, 2012
Recent conversation with Brenda:
me: I heard a song on the radio on the ride home today and found myself returning to the 70's.
Brenda: Like you ever left.
me: Be that as it may, I was bobbing my head to Journey's Lovin, Touchin', Squeezin'.
Brenda: And that's bad because...
me: Perhaps you didn't hear me - It was Journey! I'm a little upset about it. I may have to kick my own ass.
Brenda: I like Journey. My friends like Journey.
me: That's exactly my point. You and your friends view .38 Special, Air Supply, and Bad Company as if those guys rock.
Brenda: Air Supply doesn't rock but Bad Company was badass.
me: That's why you're not allowed to choose the radio station in the car.

Halloween Post #7: Scary Movies
Movie moments are still stuck in my head from films I saw 30 years ago, moments that scared the crap out of me then and still run chills down my spine today. This web page has collected 100 of these scary film moments and tried to supply a Youtube clip for each one (not successful) and some interesting commentary. This site might hold you until Halloween.

Have you ever been guilty of looking at others your own age and thinking, “Surely I can’t look that old?” I was sitting in the waiting room for my first appointment with a new dentist. I noticed his DDS diploma which bore his full name. Go »Brenda's Diet Diary
Dear Diet Diary, As a Christmas present this year, my daughter, Lauren (what a thoughtful darling), bought me a week of personal training at the local health club. Although I am still in reasonable shape since being a high school cheerleader 40 years ago, I decided it would be a good idea to give it a try. I called the club and made my reservations with a personal trainer named Juan Antonio (ooh what a name) who identified himself as a 26-year-old aerobics instructor and model for athletic clothing and swim wear. Go »Odds & Ends
Yesterday, Lauren and I went to Toby's Dinner Theatre for her birthday and saw Happy Days, the musical. I was never a big fan of the series but had seen enough of it to get the inside jokes and references to the old sitcom. A few of the groaners included not seeing Chuck for a few years now, the Fonz not being the same since he jumped the shark and Richie commenting on his usual ability to solve problems in just one-half hour.

Today is the ninth anniversary of my wedding to my child bride, Brenda. So far so good. Had to call and schedule the plumber because there is water leaking from behind the wall in the bathroom. Go »
