Ballyhoo! “Pineapple Grenade” is the Bomb; Aberdeen Band Releases New Album

Ballyhoo! “Pineapple Grenade” is the Bomb; Aberdeen Band Releases New Album

Last week, I mentioned that I didn’t like white-boy reggae because I view it as cultural theft. I made a few exceptions and Ballyhoo! was one of them. The reason they get special dispensation is obvious if you listen to this album Pineapple Grenade. These guys know how to let their influences come through without […]

Kanye West’s Much Anticipated 6th Album “Yeezus” and Why I Won’t be Listening to It

Hip-hop fan’s have been waiting with clenched fists for the arrival of Kanye West’s 6th album “Yeezus”, a title derived from Kanye’s assertion that Yeezus is his God name and West is his slave name.

Black Sabbath 13: “A Near Perfect Resurrection of the Sound and the Darkness of One of the Most Influential Bands of All Time”

Ozzy Osbourne has done every drug known to man. Tony Iommi has cancer AND doesn’t even have a whole hand. Geezer Butler’s liver may be in worse shape than Keith Richard’s. By all rights, these guys should all be dead. And yet “13” (The first studio album with Ozzy on lead vocals since 1978) is […]

New Alice In Chains “Dinosuar” Echoes the Past a Little Too Well Maybe

Alice in Chains 5th Album “The Devil Put Dinosaurs Here” If I had gone into a coma in 1995 and woken up today and some one handed me this CD, I would assume it was still 1995 based solely on this album. That may sound like I am being harsh but the latest from AIC […]

Daft Punk’s “Random Access Memories” is Randomly Memorable

Daft Punk’s 4th studio Album “Random Access Memories” Dear God I hope no one saw me enjoying this album. Because I did. And from jumpstreet I admit I am not a fan of electronic music. But this record is undeniably good. You know what would have made this go from good to great? If some […]

Do you wonder what happens inside a Lodge of Freemasons? Do you have questions about all of the mysterious symbols Masons use – on everything from car bumpers to U.S. Currency? Was you grandfather or Uncle a Freemason and you’ve got questions about what the fraternity is all about? Can Freemasonry really make GOOD men […]

No Longer a Secret: Freemasons Helping the Humane Society of Harford County

February 12, 2013 By Maynard Edwards 8 Comments

Many people think of Freemasonry as a mysterious and secretive society with members holding enigmatic meetings under the cover of darkness and using secret signs and symbols to communicate. But in reality, Freemasonry is an ancient and very honorable fraternity pledged to the purpose of making good men better. Far from being secret, the meetings […]
