During the Pandemic last year, I relearned how to do some trick shots on my pool table. Of course being home all day because of a stay at home order for our state kind of allowed me the time to do these shots. I grew up around pool tables my whole life. My father played…

With the end of Wings, his Marijuana arrest, and John Lennon being murdered in 1980. It was clear that McCartney needed a fresh start. He was alone for the first time since his 1971 album “Ram On” and the Ex Beatle had released his underwhelming self produced “McCartney II” to lackluster views and minimal sales.…

Fitting that September’s moon is called the Full Harvest Moon. This full moon rises soon after sunset. Imagine the days before electricity and you will realize how important that was. In fact it was very important as farmers used to keep working into the nights back in the day. Where did “Harvest Moon” get its…
