BBHQ Boomer-in-Charge Hershel Chicowitz always has something to say,
offering a boomer perspective on current events:
In This Week with the Chicowitz,
Hershel celebrates a victory at the bank:
"That I have won a clear and absolute victory over the rest of society
demands another demonstration of my power. I think of it as a victory
lap. It is a small, but powerful demonstration of my hubris. If I am
short of cash in my account, I'll use the ATM just to check my balance. I
don't need money; I need revenge."

The BBHQ Album of the Month
is "Old Friends Live on Stage (Deluxe Edition) (2 CD/1 DVD),"
by Simon & Garfunkel. If you were fortunate enough to see them in concert
last year, I do not have to sell you. The concert was terrific! This
album collection includes 55 songs, plus their new recording, "Citizen of
the Planet," and one of the songs sung by the Everly Brothers during the
concert. The DVD was recorded during their concert in Madison
Square Garden in 2003. For any S&G fan, this is a
must have! But then, you knew that already, didn't you?

The BBHQ Book of the Month is
"Vinyl Highway," by
Dee Dee Phelps. You remember her as Dee Dee, of Dick and Dee Dee.
Together, they took a decade long ride on the rock and roll roller
coaster. It was a heck of a ride! Dick Clark, Quincy Jones, the Beach
Boys, Glenn Campbell, Dionne Warwick, Bobby Vinton... Dick and Dee Dee
rubbed shoulders with all of them. This is her "behind the scenes" story.
It's pretty cool.
