Today was a drizzly start to the Memorial Day weekend. 47 degrees with a cold mist spitting from the gray clouds. And we had Red Sox tickets.

You know how our news media and sometimes our government takes a negative thing, spins it, and gets you looking at it as a not so bad thing? Today I heard the best spin.

It’s only May. 2013 barely has its legs under it and the amount of tragedy we, as a country, have already experienced this year is incomprehensible.

It was such a fun evening. My friend and lead singer, Jo-Anne Petty, and band member Randy, both had amazing voices. Each sang a solo as well as taking turns leading the other songs. The other guys on the drums and . . . → Read More: Playing The God Card – On God This is the photo of the suspect after he placed the backpack bomb beside Martin and his family.
