Just a collection of this and that from recent things I’ve read, seen, or experienced. You know, I just can’t find it in my heart or head to blame Mr. Randall Margraves for his actions in a Michigan courtroom today. I fully understand, as I believe Mr. Margraves does as well, that this is not […]
“Rowdy” Roddy Piper “Hold On Tight” Music Video
Friday , 7, August 2015 Music Comments Off on “Rowdy” Roddy Piper “Hold On Tight” Music VideoOn last Monday night’s WWE RAW show and Thursday night’s WWE Smackdown show, they played this song with a video montage tribute of clips from the career of the late “Rowdy” Roddy Piper.

Here’s a photo Cindy shot with her phone of me standing in front of a rock, boulder, piece of the mountain…whatever you want to call it, that is about 10 feet high and not far from Wolf’s Haven on Sheepback Mountain. Ohhhh…you thought it was me and Dwayne “The Rock” Johnson? Sorry to disappoint.

But it wasn’t […]

The 50 Greatest WWE Entrance Themes!
Sunday , 22, September 2013 Wrestling Comments Off on The 50 Greatest WWE Entrance Themes!WWE just published their top 50 greatest WWE ring entrance theme songs.

I wish they had included “You Got Another Thing Comin’” the ring entrance […]
