The state of Florida had a hopelessly week case against Zimmerman, and the jury wasn't convinced beyond a reasonable doubt that he was guilty after deliberating the evidence presented to them. The system worked exactly as it's designed to. Evidence, or the lack thereof, and not emotion, was used to ...

Just got back from the show at Headliners and it was great! My 18 year old daughter went with me and enjoyed it immensely. Jay did join Colonel Ford on one song and was wearing a nifty looking black leather hat. Jay thanked everyone and said they had been zigzagging across the country. Seemed like a...

42

I am a baseball junkie and a lifelong Reds fan. Finally got to go see 42 last night, and all I can say is wow, what a phenomenal movie. Harrison Ford's portrayal of Branch Rickey was stunning, he should be an absolute lock for an Oscar. When the movie ended someone in the theater yelled "Play ball" ...

I don't like cooked cabbage, but I love a good Cole Slaw. Same vegetable, just served in a different manner. Jay/Son Volt's version of country music is a wonderful Cole Slaw. Can I have that for my signature? Priceless! Tim in the ATL You can, just make sure you spell coleslaw correctly so you don'...

In the interest of fairness and open mindedness I have been listening to a lot of modern country music lately, along with watching youtube videos of some of the traditional country musicians. The modern stuff has all of the same underlying themes that the traditional stuff has; cheating spouses, lov...

Mark, I think it's safe to say you're not the average music fan since your livelihood is centered around music. Most people pick out a certain genre or two of music that they like and that's pretty much what they stick to. You have an extremely diverse interest in music, which I think you would agre...

I would agree with what you say about most of the music of the 80's and 90's, but hell, I'm 57 years old and was listening to Zeppelin, Yes, Allman Brothers, Humble Pie, Lynyrd Skynyrd, Mountain, Grand Funk, Jethro Tull and all of the rest of the legendary bands of the late 60's and 70's when they w...
