are you a fan of harper lee's "to kill a mockingbird"?
i read the book as a child and have read it many times since.
miss lee obviously wrote the book to entertain us, and she accomplished that.
I can't wait to read it. I agree with Terry in that it is a more realistic view of the mindset at that time and the fears that people had toward blacks being blending in with the white community. The novel was written in 1957 right at the same time the Little Rock Central High School crisis was going on which was getting a lot of national media coverage at that time and it was a hot subject.

at a little independent recording studio in memphis tennessee music and history got turned on its ear.
sun records, sam phillips baby, recording a memphis truck driver who captured what sam heard in his head- rock a billy and r&b with an edge, the birth of rock n roll.
the truck driver was elvis presley.
Wow! This woman is still performing at the age of 70 in 2011. She still has an amazing voice!

I always liked this song since I first remembered hearing when I was around 8 years old. The music from the 50s were being played a lot back then after American Graffiti was released and my parents always had those records and tapes and I listened to them growing up. I was always impressed with the lead vocalist Arlene Smith of The Chantels. She didn't stay in the business but became a teacher instead. This song is 199 on Rolling Stones greatest songs of all time.

personally i think this is wonderful.
i have nothing against gay people and wish them only the best.. but of course i'm in a minority of one, the jw's around me are posting away on fb the most homophobic vitriol imaginable.
a lot of them are even saying that it's the start to armageddon!!.

ive had to make statements like this too many times.
communities like this have had to endure tragedies like this too many times.
once again, communities [were harmed] because someone who wanted to inflict harm had no problem getting their hands on a gun.. lets be clear: at some point, we as a country will have to reckon with the fact that this type of mass violence does not happen in other advanced countries.
I just love it when people who live outside of the US talk shit about Americans and their 2nd Amendment right to own guns.
