This is not zydeco but that's like saying blues is not jazz. It is a true statement but not completely accurate. If one likes Louisiana style music they might like the Dirty Dozen Brass Band or the Rebirth Brass Band...or not
"When the snows fall and the white winds blow, the lone wolf dies but the pack survives." Winter is Coming Now this is the Law of the Jungle—as old and as true as the sky; And the wolf that shall keep it may prosper, but the wolf that shall break it must die. As the creeper that girdles the tree-trunk, the Law runneth forward and back; For the strength of the Pack is the Wolf, and the strength of the Wolf is the Pack.
Thanks so much! I'm going to try to get a hold of the music on those two links. And the videos are great - I spent my years in school band playing clarinet, but loving the trumpet sound, so I'm all for the brass.

The Mafia Is Not Primarily An Organisation Of Murderers. First And Foremost,The Mafia Is Made Up Of Thieves. It Is Driven By Greed And Controlled By Fear.
Between The Law And The Mafia, The Law Is Not The Most To Be Feared

I'm gonna shock the world (or at least Miggie ) and admit that I like some country music. Check out this video by Alan Jackson and Jimmy Buffett, and tell me that you don't want to be on an island, somewhere, drinking frozen drinks, with half-naked women.
The scenes at the "tiki bar" were filmed in Jupiter, Florida, about a half hour from my place down there. It's called "The Square Grouper," and I've been there several times.

Sang that song a few times. There is a line from the musical Mame that phrased it a different way. "Somewhere in the world the sun is just below the yard arm." Same result.

Bring on the Summer. Now I want to be on a private beach with frozen drinks but with naked men catering to my every need. Yes I am shocked a little.

I'll volunteer for the naked man part.

I see a lot of juvenile obesity in the Bronx, especially in the lower economic areas, and my heart breaks for these kids. And I realize there's a correlation between poverty and obesity among children, but I'm sorry, I think the parents have to be taken to task at some point.
You can eat healthy on a budget, if you care enough to do a little research.

Yeah, obesity is a rising threat, especially among the impoverished. It seems counterintuitive but a few weeks back there was a NYT piece on obesity and hunger being correlated in some areas of the South Bronx.

I seriously was about to make a post, discussing how great it was to see Paul McCartney do an interview and outdoor performance on Letterman tonight...I even had video clips. That's when I noticed they'd been posted on YouTube a year ago.
I see that Goombah and PB both posted about it, but I'm sure it doesn't hurt to revive an awesome moment like this! How lucky are we to still get to see him play today?
That is so cool. Damn, last time I was in NY I went right by the Ed Sullivan theater. Why couldn't I have been so lucky to see Sir Paul perform? Love Helter Skelter and Get Back (never was so crazy about Back In The USSR but hey that's ok). Very nice. I wish I would have seen it on tv.
Btw anyone who is interested, PBS is going to air McCartney's performance for the Obama's on July 28th. I don't know the time and the date was the original one they stated so I suppose that could have changed. If I hear a change I'll post for those who may want to see it.

This was easily one of my favorite commercial jingles when I'd hear it on the TV. It brings you back to a different time and place. I had been looking for it for awhile, but knowing youtube's ability to never let me down, had a feeling it would show up sooner or later.
Mob?????? How the heck are you????? Nice to see you back.
