A jolly, happy, colorblind soul


This is the snowman my husband and son made yesterday, when we finally inched up out of the deep freeze enough to get the snow to stick together properly.

It is also the model for a couple of my recent knitting projects. I'll agree -- not exactly the greatest venue for showing off work. And they don't match -- the stripes in the hat are black, whereas the scarf is navy blue. What a fashion fiasco. Call Mr. Blackwell!!!

Freddie Mercury was the heart and soul and voice and face and pianist and songwriter and co-founder of that '70s & '80s phenomenal English rock band. Yet, guitarist Brian May and drummer Roger Taylor have trotted some singer named Paul Rodgers on stage, on tour, on a new album, and are calling themselves Queen.

I'm sorry, but two washed-up has-been musicians and some former singer for Bad Company does not somehow magically make it OK to blaspheme Freddie like this. The band HE fronted was the one inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame and the Songwriters Hall of Fame. MTV named Mercury the second greatest singer in the history of popular music. I realize that many bands suffer this fate as members retire or die and others t...
