Johnny loves him some Marions ice cream in East Tawas. Good stuff. They opened this weekend so Johnny went down to get some of that banana pudding ice cream. He noticed something. Different music. For years and years it had been 50's and doo-wop . Not this time, 80's synth music. 'Punk Rock Girl' by The Dead Milkmen played while Johnny waited for his order. 

Ch-ch-ch-changes...

Happy Memorial Day!

Johnny isn't sure if Happy is the right message on such a somber and reflective day but he supposes it's just what people say.

Did you know then: The Beatles officially broke up at Disney World.

Although they had unofficially gone their separate ways in 1970, The Beatles’ legal dissolution didn’t occur until December 29, 1974, when John Lennon signed the official paperwork while vacationing at Walt Disney World.
