Neil Young Has Confused Me. It Was the Greenland Part.

Neil Young Has Confused Me. It Was the Greenland Part.

We trade game-day habits for music that still stings, moving from 70s “soft rock” to the art of tribute songs and a blunt take on Neil Young’s platform politics. Along the way, we face quitting smoking, stubborn weight, and an awkward line that teaches better restraint. • why live sports lost their appeal and value • what makes 70s pop writing durable and precise • Elton John and Bernie Taupin’s lyric craft • why Candle In The Wind and Vincent endure • how platform boycotts reshape how we hear music • the mess of citizenship, morality clauses and hypocrisy • quitting smoking and the shock of midlife weight gain • heat, steps, and realistic fitness trade-offs • a daycare misstep, social fallout and owning mistakes All Blade content is at bobtheblade.com

Who Is the Queen of Rock-N-Roll? I'll tell you who. It's Close.

Janice Joplin just wasn't around enough. The Queen, she's, you know, she's got gray hair, she's probably 75 years old, I saw her on some interview and she's hilarious. She came out of the 60s, 70s, 80s, all of that completely unscarred, unscathed. Who is the queen of rock and roll?

Alice Cooper's Strawberry Milk

You know who's really cool and lives around here, and you see him all the time doing something or another. He's in commercials constantly, he's Alice Cooper. And I always laugh when I think of that cat because he's the guy that came up with this line that I love, and I'll always remember this line. Life is an AA meeting and a round of golf

Blade-Pitching for the first time with a new hip.

I'm trying to get the ball across the plate, and the third baseman comes, he walks by me, he says, Where's your ass, man? You got no ass. You've lost your ass. And I said, haven't you? I'm trying to get the ball over the plate, man, and you're telling me I have no ass. You know, and and I said, I said, don't you know the story, man? When the older we get, the more we lose our ass. You know, it's different with women. You know, our whole metabolism slows down and all their fat in their body goes into their butt, you know, and all of our fat body goes into our stomach. And then I lifted my shirt up to them and said, There's my ass. Now back to third base, third baseman.

Miss America Didn't Miss Her Calling-TV

Incomparable because each and every time I look at this one, she's perfect. The word is mesmerizing, which I will use until they come up with another one, besides "stunning". The most mesmerizing girl on TV and after 50 years she replaced (IT WAS CLOSE!) the former Mos Beautiful, a position she held until I turned into my sixties. I had a radio career, keep whatever you are drinking while on the air at least six feet from the console. The guy that spilled his tee and honey drink on there opened a world of history when the console roof was lifted to fix it.
