First there was Jackson and Tyler, and now Incubus singer leads the way with a local connection:
— Hudson’s own Taeja, who is known for her California connections with some prominent musicians that include Jermaine Jackson and Steven Tyler, (via his throwing an item of clothing her way in-concert), was back in town after being a worker from the area where stars live, on a family business matter and was able to report there was another luminary on her list — yet another lead singer, this time from Incubus. She couldn’t quite rest on her laurels by just knowing the main screamer from System of a Down. Turns out Taeja had approached the Incubus guy with a gift in her pocket, but since couldn’t quite get up the courage to hand it over, settled for a selfie with him, which was shown to a few select people downtown. Got one hand in my pocket and the other’s (holding a camera) …
— And then there’s yet another Prince connection, this time via the airwaves. The group Still Runnin’ that again played the Willow River Saloon in Burkhardt, and is known for having Prince songs in its set list, had during its time on stage an alternate deliver method. I tuned into the radio during the timing of what was both their first and third sets, and each time the song playing was by The Purple One. Same station, but separate titles, just ones not as overplayed as Purple Rain. What are the chances …
— My former neighbor Mackenzie and a friend were chatting up a storm outside of Dick’s Bar and Grill, when she pointed out that a third woman was wearing a shirt praising New York girls, and that the word “new” had been inadvertently — I’m assuming — placed right between her breasts. Is that truth in advertising?
— More fun with words, where a copy editor is needed. The most recently honored Buzztime trivia player at Buffalo Wild Wings goes by the play name “Editer.” May I suggest that he now needs not only a publicist, but an actual editor. Between them, can their correct his spelling?
— North Hudson bar signs are having fun with the whole birthday thing. One at Kozy Korner has said that David Hohler should have a happy 70th. I bet it will be a howler. Earlier, very similar well wishes were given to the North Hudson Man of the Year runnerup for 2016, stating that maybe 2017 might be his year. Or probably not, it read with tongue in cheek. And back a door or two, on the big sign in front of Village Liquor, for what seems like weeks now it has said, from the north side, a happy birthday to Rachel. I’ve heard of a birthday week, or even birthday month, but this is ridiculous.
Now, now Taeja, now include Incubus lead singer after Tyler, Jackson, System of a Down …

- Pristine Boundary waters may now be tainted but not your CBD. And the alleged villian is Chilean, not Mexican or Venezualian. And the village ‘repossessed’ your garbage can and made you buy an officially approved new one. Welcome to 4-20 and Earth Day, circa 2026. And Mary Jane is now declassified by Trump for purposes of ‘study.’ This is not the Obama or Biden administration.
Social media commentators at all levels and news media alike are — just in time for Earth Day — mining the latest Boundary Waters area news with headlines about the latest rollback of Obama and Biden era environmental protections to pristine water quality for what can, legally, be done with potentially destructive commerce in that region, passing the Minnesota legislature by the narrowest of margins. The reactions have ranged from who cares, to asking if our legislators do care, about the plan to mine metals, backed by a Chilean corporate giant, whose name sounds like a death metal band, and...
- Curl when you can, but hey, now with ice (largely) out?? The Winter Olympics is Past, in case you were one to skip it. Both there is so much more to it then just releasing a stone. Which in case you hadn’t been watching does not always go purposely straight. As it can be wisked in a slightly different manner of bend. There is so much more to this sport, but I still have so many questions … This post is a newbie’s (mostly) first reaction.
So, the Winter Olympics is history, as is the Super Bowl in suspense, and March Madness mania is now mundane, so have you gotten enough of … curling as a sport? Don’t just go ho hum. Like my friend Tom sorta was/is. More on that midway. The summer Olympics aren’t coming around for a bit, to fill your taste for sports. But baseball is underway, so there is more than one four-person, four-bagger with four hot dog-one beer, sobriety limits, even for the Brew Crew. (See below). — That aside, the long winter is over, the whole Boundary Waters Area returns to...
- Black Sabbath: With God and Satan at my side. and Trump in the middle, leaning largely left toward Lucifer. Could Trump Ever truly be Jesus? Or even Pope Leo? As there appears to be one of those deadly sins, envy. First, Trump would last on the cross about as long as an alleged joe biden thought. To last even seconds longer, he’d have to master omnipotence, like he thinks his army’s have. Track record: Look at his omniscience!
Trump vs. Pope Leo? I’ll take God. And even most atheists would agree with the first part. The battle against Trump becomes more universal. Trump as Jesus? This is an even easier call. I’ll take The Christ not The Donald. But wait, Trump said, or at least pictured, I am He? While facing foes he did not fight with while in The Garden, not Madison Square, and not while entertaining lavishly at a gala at Mar-A-Lago. Trump could take a lesson. Or he could read The Good Book more. (But he does seem to know what a Sacred Heart is, or at least how to...
- I filter through the fluoridation fixation. This fickle topic was put to rest locally, debunking myths and defying trump and deflating his agenda, with a recent mandate-making, landslide referendum election result. Think of the theoretical ramifications of neighbor vs. neighbor. Tainted water makes tainted love. But this is not our first go-round with this …
Water, water everywhere, and no fluoride to drink … water, water nowhere, better flood the sink. But hold your horses if not your hose and hold on a minute, they voted it down. At least here in New Richmond last Tuesday. So in the week since, we feel the fallout of Trump and his ilk such as RFK Jr. now falling down in failure. There still is lifegiving, if not lifesaving, fluoride to be found in the fluid that spouts from the municipal water system. The mandate-worthy referendum result was to keep teeth-building fluoride in the city supply, by a...
- Size AA, AAA or DD? All here in Hudson. They are batteries plus and more, buttercup! Or more specifically a (Naturally) Naked Root plant and planter sale, as Hudson Blooms, that could also conjure up other crazy corrolations.
I don’t know what this is, exactly, but I know I want a part of it. There is a Naked Root plant sale at Farrill’s Sunrise Nursery and Garden Center that’s located east of, as in rural, Hudson, away from semi-urban congestion, on two days on each of the next two weekends, including this one according to their sign, rounding out April with extended sale days. That could, it seems to me, correspond with the release — as a knockoff — of the Sports Illustrated swimsuit issue. Think just a bit of Knock Weed, or knotweed, barely covering a beauty from...
- A sideways glance? Easter not only prevailed but lingered, and there have been since Sunday many other signs of spring.
As Easter began to close down, like a defender in March Madness for Michigan kicking U-Conn, the signs still could be seen heading out on the highway, like Jesus in and around Emmaus of old. The man-of-right-age as a driver wore a T-shirt on Monday, the next day, that I think was for a metal band, and could have been either a stick figure with slim limbs and thick torso ready for a spear to come and sitting in a chair, or Christ on the cross bent over a bit sideways, like he’d been forced to haul that awful tree too...
