Welcome To Case's Column

Let me say a big welcome to all of you for joining me here. I'm going to call these blog meetings Case's Column. I wanted to use "Corner", but that was already taken. Since 2008, it's been a real privilege to come on here and share some of my life with you, and it's a big world where we live.

In these blogs, I'll just speak whatever is on my mind, but we will be playing within the rules here. I may pick a particular topic, point out an event, or shoot the breeze. I'm a little bit of an essayist at times, so I'll just speak what's on my mind, and I might tell a story or two. Or, I might spew out an opinion or three. There will be some serious moments, some tender, some poignant, but there will also be those moments that you'll just bust out laughing. But, hopefully, everything will be in good fun here. And, of course, there's a place below for your comments and thoughts as we go along here. So feel free to join me for the ride -- I sure as heck hope I'm doing this right and not making any mistakes.

Thanks for taking your time in reading Case's Column. Hopefully, you'll enjoy being entertained by it as much as I've enjoyed putting these writings together. And thanks for the time you spend in City-Data.com, where it's great to be alive!

Regards,

They Always Come In Threes, And Just Waiting Now....

....for the third shoe to drop.

Music fans hate when their favorite stars, or those who have had success, pass away. Eventually, there will be "that time". There are still quite a few stars from the great 1960s decade who are still around (Mick Jagger, Paul McCartney, Peter Noone, Gary Puckett, Brian Wilson, and many others). Most recently, however, we've lost two who had the heights of their popularity in the decade of the 1980s: Eddie Money and Ric Ocasek, the latter of The Cars. Part of my high school soundtrack came from those two (along with The Cars' Ben Orr, Pat Benatar, Rick Springfield, Billy Ocean, Journey, Foreigner, and many more from that decade).

Death is real.

Nervous music fans are sitting there, going, "Who is going to be next?". Sometimes, in celebrity life, you have trifectas, and we're just waiting for that proverbial third shoe. We loathe it, but that's part of life.

    By now, it's safe to say, 'No trifecta'. No third shoe.
