More football is the focus, and the fluctuations of karaoke voice:

— For something new in the rather staid world of karaoke, check out the Friday and Saturday night offerings at the Hudson Bowling Center, which feature a new provider with some cool technology that really brings out the tone of the music, and every fluctuation of the voice.The former and longtime karaoke meister there, the softspoken Brett, has moved down south, much like the pathway taken by Jams by James a few years ago, who was one of the first such providers in the Hudson area. He did it for as long as most local crooners can remember.
— With NFL football back, one of the best munchies deals, during any such game, is the $2.95 Johnsonville brat that comes with sauerkraut and chips at Dick’s Bar and Grill. They also have announced the new “season” of fall food specials that include some popular chili — which on one of their past flyers left out the “e” and referred to the offering as home mad chili, which says it all. Another flyer said of watching NFL football there, “Go Team,” which did not specify any particular franchise — guess they are both Viking and Packer friendly.
— Kozy Korner in North Hudson is known as a place to watch such games and take in related amenities, but they may have slightly mis-stated the case when their marquee said about breakfast pizzas, “one trillion served.” They may be off by about a million or so. With that said, it’s important to note that this Sunday’s noon Packer-Lions game is the initial one of the season to be subject to blackout rules, the first of as many as seven, which is more than usual, so it’s important to choose where you watch.

This about all that soft jazz, and a whole lotta related offerings, taking a renewed seat at the table, like a not-seen-for-a-while relative at Thanksgiving dinner, as they have plenty of quick eats or full meal to go with the music too, at a venue that adds another element to the local song scene. It’s an intimate setting, where you can be not much more than an arm’s length or two from one of the players as the regele you with their sung stories — and still stay out of reach and vocal range of that odd uncle, but close...
Business writing, and even life, is like penning a song. It moves through the various seasons, like The Rain Song. (Snow coming soon.) But the very season at which we choose to begin is telling. And it may vary. For each client’s, or band’s needs. Or the second side of an album. They say keep your friends close, your enemies closer, and your bandmates closest, because they are the ones you hole up with for long periods and churn out the creative process. One of those for me, is the pen during the day, and voice at times at night when...
When I first heard that star actor Nicolas Cage was in town for an extended stay to film one of his new movies, it didn’t take too much of a deep dive to discover that the film and its protagonist takes the name of Parish, which made me think it had something to do with things post-apocalyptic and churches, like some of his past flicks. (Spoiler alert: It actually is not a parish in the sense of the name of a church, but has that end of the world and eternity vibe, as it’s about a man who decides to hole up in his adapted...
Mr. Hat, meet Mr. Reality, meet Mr. Mandate. Via Mr. Crowley. If you don’t get that post-election humor, then there’s no hope … When it concerns the latter, check out the Ozzy song and it’s message, “won’t you ride my white horse” and “did you think you were pure,” see if you then get the gag, as a U.S. dictator’s realm falls in a landslide rarely seen. “Your lifestyle to me seems so tragic.” As the last midterm election tallies are being, well, tallied, South Park (and later SNL too) roared on with its satire on Wednesday night, getting going at it...
The divide in politics these days is not still as much left vs. right, with granted little center, it’s become the informed vs. the uniformed or downright ignorant, and by the flyers politicians put out, you can see they are catering to this predilection. So I propose a solution, though radical, as long as these days we’re throwing that word around all over the place even when it’s not merited, and it’s mentioned literally hundreds of times in Republican flyers across the state: If you are not going to educate yourself, don’t vote. If you think about it, this is very Darwin-ish. Another...
Hark Halloween has been buried, as the big inflatables are now being sacked and stored — they were slowly being replaced anyway by some bigger creatures of all, very tall types and rounds lengths of plastic, currently used as the centerpieces, not the ones that often end up laying flat on the ground, strung out. As far as the bigger than gourds, such pumpkins were seen around town at the bars and antique shops, such as three of carefully chosen shades set in a triangle, of all different colors were the shapes painted on — they being squares and circles of...
