Celebrating: Steve Young

(1942 - 2016)

I'm not going to insult your Googling capabilities by copy-pasting Steve Young's bio from Wikipedia but if you listen to classic rock such as the Eagles then Steve Young is someone you know that you don't know you even know. The Eagles sung a song live song titled "Seven Bridges Road" which, depending on the recording, they introduced as a song they "learned from a fellow named Steve Young". Yup, this is that Steve Young.

The House Divided

No matter which side you're on I believe it's safe to say that last week's events made for a pretty tough week for all of us. And, ironically, it was the week that the United States celebrated its independence. The news described Dallas as the worst "since 9/11" but I disagree. The 9/11 hijackers were not from the USA but the events of the past week pit American against American revealing a deeply divided house.

Movie Review: The Purge - Election Day

So tonight marked a few firsts for me.  For starters, it was my first time attending a moving screening.  It also was the first time I realized that the building I had driven past for 10 years in the South Park area of Charlotte was actually the Regal Cinemas at Phillips Place.  Finally, it was the first time in months that me and the beautiful girlfriend had met up immediately following work for a pseudo date night.  Oh yeah...and it was the night of the Purge - the one night of the year where laws don't matter.
