Welcome to Buster's Blog

Irregular commentary on whatever's on my mind -- politics, sports, current events, and life in general. After twenty years of writing business and community newsletters, fifteen years of fantasy baseball newsletters, and two years of email "columns", this is, I suppose, the inevitable result: the awful conceit that someone might actually care to read what I have to say. Posts may be added often, rarely, or never again. As always, my mood and motivation are unpredictable.

RIP, Prince


Prince Rogers Nelson, a.k.a. Prince, a.k.a. the unpronounceable symbol.  Gone way too soon at age 57.

If you followed music in the 1980's, you followed Prince.  He was androgynous, a wild dresser, a prolific creator, a great musician, a maker of mega-hits, dynamic performer, an occasional actor, and a philanthropist.  To call him influential is to put it mildly.

He'll be missed, but he left behind a wonderful musical legacy for all to enjoy.  And with his untimely passing, he also gave us one final gift:  For one full day, we heard virtually nothing about that horse's ass Donald Trump.
