- New site here, January 1, 2009
A new rendition of this Web site debuts on New Years'
Day, 2009 (or earlier, if I can do it). This anticipates the build-up to the Class of 1960
half-century reunion. The Web address (URL) will be identical. The new pages will have
state-of-art look, feel, and navigability.
The
old site (you're reading
it now), started in early 2000. Sorry, it has grown grungy. I have
not kept portions up-to-date. My excuse is that I never
retired permanently. The new site will use a content managment system
that I can easily maintain from anywhere in the World. Until New Year's
Day, you may notice this site going temporarily offline, or even see a
snapshot of the new site, as I work on migrating material from the old
site. -- Ed Mauget |

The
2008 monthly columns center on music, a powerful key to recalling
long-past personal experiences, feelings, and events. Any subject with
a musical tie that is remotely related to our 1956-1960 John R. Rogers
High School tenure is fair game for an article.
Indeed,
2008 is an exact 50 years after our 1958 sophomore year. That
year, AM station, KNEW, on 790, featured DJ personalities including the
four Bobs and Frantic Frank. Recordings were mechanical grooves in
vinyl, often rotating at 45 RPM. We could purchase these at the Music
Box in the Paulsen Building. Some top-ten songs dealt with teen-aged
deaths, but most were love songs. Almost all popular music targeted
teens. Sometimes this music was considered to be garbage by some
adults, but it is easily found on the air today.
Mr.
Bob Foster directed the Rogers Band. We also had a chorus, an
orchestra, and a choir. There are other kinds of musical tie-ins to our
generation. Look them in two new MusicMems
articles, monthly, at http://rogers60.com,
through December, 2008.

Ctrl + v). Note, a click
causes any thumbnail picture to jump to its full-sized version. Carry
out the procedure on that target.
