Life Experience High School Diploma
Now, this is interesting. An online “high school” calling itself “Belford High School” lets you get your high school diploma in just a few minutes’ time. You can do this one of two ways:
1. By taking a test in language arts (26 questions), math (20 questions), science (15 questions), and social [...]

Back in the ’70s, there was a lot of controversy about alleged backward masking (i.e., subliminal messaging) in rock music. Parents were absolutely freaking out over it, and forbidding their children to listen to rock music. It should surprise no one to discover that I was one of the kids back then [...]

Some of you may have noticed that I have deleted a post I made yesterday. The reason for this is that I seem to have acquired a cyberstalker. Again.
It’s not the first cyberstalker I’ve had, and I’m sure it won’t be the last. However, I’m not going to make their stalking easier for them, either.

By now, everyone has heard about the six Florida teenagers who lured a 16-year-old girl to a home, where they beat her unconscious, waited for her to regain consciousness, then beat her again.
For thirty minutes.
And, they taped it all with the intention of putting it on YouTube.
The tape itself shows a group of shockingly, stunningly [...]

I saw David Cook’s performance from last night, wherein he reworked Mariah Carey’s “Always Be My Baby” into a song for a man to sing. It’s actually very good, and even better the second time around - I guess it grew on me - so I thought I’d post it here.

It’s Mariah Carey night. I’m not real sure how this is going to work out, but it could turn out to be the worst episode of American Idol ever.
Randy is looking for identity, though the judges regularly tell the contestants to not do songs from such well-known singers. For that reason, having a [...]
