My brother sent me a message Facebook post saying I needed to listen to these bands. Needless to say I love them. It amazes me that I can be upset or angry and the sound of a banjo makes it all better. I will own a banjo someday!

Kids on YouTube: How much is too much?

What is this world coming to? Seriously, I remember the good old times when kids were just kids, not stars in TV shows, or runway models, or pageant queens, or in very many advertisements.

Famous people's deaths...?

Not to be rude to Lena Horne, but why do we make such a big hub-bub over famous people's lives. Most of them don"t even do anything for the world, and when they die they become even more famous. Look at Michael Jackson, for example, prior to his death most people despised him for being a 'child molester' and now we have t-shirts and movies about his oh so grand life.

There are plenty of fascinating people in the world that deserve more than what most stars of today's society has. It costs way too much to put an obituary of a small town family member in a local newspaper and yet when a star passes away, it's in the news the very next morning.
