Jack Kerouac would have been 100 yesterday. I am not that familiar with his books but certainly understand his large influence.
I have included YouTube video of the visit to his grave by Allen Ginsberg and Bob Dylan in 1975. The manuscript for On the Road, is a long scroll that was purchased by Colts owner Jim Irsay.
There could be more bills like this from other states. The Supreme Court may overturn or neuter Roe vs. Wade soon.
I can’t imagine that any other place would have put up with her continued disobedience.

The Rolling Stones released Beast of Burden in 1978. Bette Midler covered it in 1984 and made a music video that included Mick Jagger.

I was in a training class in Washington for 11 weeks from April-July 1976. The Metro opened in March 1976. As I recall, the original part was the Red Line from Union Station to Farragut North. They had people taking your money; this was before fare cards. I thought it was great. It was much more modern than the New York subway system which I had used when I lived there until I was 10. I am sad to know that it has had many repair problems. I’ll remember it as new and shiny.

I recommend following historichomesofbaltimore on Instagram. I also recommend donating to Baltimore Heritage which does a great job informing us about historic Baltimore architecture.
“Secret Agent Man” was the theme to a TV show and a popular song released by Johnny Rivers in 1966. It began as a demo called “Danger Man” by co-author P. F. Sloan before the name of the show was changed. The first released version of “Secret Agent Man” was by the Challengers.
