Back in 1987, I interviewed #OzzyOsbourne for the heavy metal mag 'Metallix: It'll Rock You To Shreds!' while he was promoting Randy Rhoads Tribute. I was stunned by what a nice and affable person he was and he talked about how much he loved @PaulMcCartney and the Beatles, among…
Ozzy Osbourne meeting his lifelong idol, Paul McCartney in 2001.
There’s got to be a name for this. A long running group chat of male friends. Every once in a while someone feeds some believable and harmless lie into the group chat. If you catch on you don’t let on. You wait to see who is the last to figure it out. Currently my younger son is…

I reinterpreted my solo album last night at the Lawrence KS Public Library. I used only modular synths and an ASL interpreter. It was a subtle reference to my 1984 Masters Thesis/Graduation recital at @ucsc . Only this time it wasn’t marred by the discovery of a severed finger…
On the way to middle school I picked up a bag of Lays along the side of the road and it had a severed finger inside.
reply with your favorite Lay's memory and we may send you a bag
Two beautiful dogs, younger intact female, older male pitbull. Both sweet. Abandoned at the Loves exit 9 off I-20 in western Georgia. Any locals any help? Notified animal control. I fed and watered them. Not sure what else to do.
