Being 38 with thoughts of Linda Rondstatd and The New York Post

I am officially 38 now --- and am about to embark into a whole new chapter of my life. I feel just like Marsha Mason in Chapter Two! I did feel like Jill Clayburgh, but I now feel more optimistic ---- So I will go with Neil Simon over Paul Muzurtzsky. Artistically, probably not a good move --- but from the life perspective, I figure it is more healthy.

I was listening the Stones on my Walkman this morning. They started singing Tumbling Dice. Now, this is a Stones song, but Linda Rondstadt had a hit single of it in the mid or late 70's when I was kid. It made me think, "Wow. Remember when Linda Rondstadt was cool and everyone thought she was hot?" ...not anymore.

Then I walked past a news stand and noticed that classy bit of journalism excellence, THE NEW YORK POST. If you have not seen today's edition, it is worth a look just for sure bad taste. There is a photo of a heavy-set woman in tears with the headline reading, "Till The Arafat Woman Cries" or something to that effect. ...Still, it made me laugh.

The New York Post is trashy and isn't even worth using to clean up after a dog.

Linda Rhonstadt is so grossly underrated. I wish there were still major labels like Elektra out there to encourage musical artists to flex their creative muscles.
