• Institutionalized: The Rock Hall Of Fame (a random playlist)

  The very concept of a Hall of Fame for rock or any music is suspect; how can you quantify music? It's like the Rolling Stone list of the top 500 songs. What makes "Hey Jude" necessarily better than "Soul Man"? What makes "(I Can't Get No) Satisfaction" a better song than "Once In A Lifetime"?

  I bought Monster when it came out in 1994. I listened once and then let it collect dust. I did not get it.

• Protecting and Defending Marriage in the 21st Century

  Defining families according to a conventional model of demographic composition is especially cynical in these days when families are perceived by so many as being in a state of decay.

• The New World of Self-Publishing

  There are many writers out there with stars in their eyes-- looking to self-publishing as the holy grail. I talk to many of them on a weekly basis; both locally in Rochester, NY, which is the print-on-demand hub of the world, and online, through email, or my blog at A-ha! These are writers who have a story to tell and who know they probably won't make it through the filtering process at a big publishing house. Or, they've tried that route and been burned.
