Being an account of some things I'm interested in, what I'm doing, and reflections on my past, especially music.
Listen to this man. Seven years of college, you know. Trying to reason with 2020 and, now, 2022.

JSIS: Say It Ain't So, Brian-- Cheers Reunion--
JSIS-- Just Some Interesting Stuff
1. SAY IT AIN'T SO, BRIAN-- Founding Beach Boy Brian Wilson has been dropped from the band as it nears the end of its tour. I was hoping the three originals would stay together. If you like Beach Boy music, get a copy of their new CD. Takes you right back.
2. CHEERS REUNION-- Featured on ET all this past week. I missed all but one showing. I can hardly stand ET, but did really like the sitcom. It debuted thirty years ago this month.
3. WENDY'S-- Soon-to-be-your-upscale fast food restaurant. Updated their logo and now offering baked sweet potatoes. How Sweet!!
4. GREAT WORK IF YOU CAN GET IT-- I saw that the average pay package for financial employees in New York and Wall Street is $362,950. I shouldn't have gone into teaching.

Beach Boys Reunite
From Jan. 9th USA Today.
Well, what's left of them anyway, but the important thing is that they have put aside past differences and will be on the road doing their music this summer on a 50-date tour starting in April at the New Orleans Jazz and Heritage Festival.
Brian Wilson will be rejoining cousin Mike Love and Al Jardine and will also have Bruce Johnston, who has been a member since 1965 and David Marks who played with the band in the early 60s and late 90s.
Dennis Wilson died in 1983 and Carl Wilson in 1998.
Nothing says summer and cars and sixties better than this band. I may just have to get myself out to see a show if they get near to Chicago.
