Vivre la Difference...

Aliens that look entirely (or almost entirely) human were easy. Science types (espers) vs. magicians was easy.

As more and more series start, establishing the human vs. other character while maintaining originality becomes more of a stretch and may risk forcing a one joke series.

Les Paul - 100 years

Tomorrow, June 9th marks the 100th anniversary of the birth of Les Paul. Paul was best known for the guitar that bears his name, but he was a pioneer in solid body guitar design, advancing over dubbing techniques in recording, exploiting the new possibilities with solid body instruments, and creating playing styles that have become staples in rock and roll music.

One fact I did not know was he created the around the neck harmonica holder used by so many rock and folk players.

He recorded with his wife, Mary Ford and together they sold millions of copies of their songs.
