The Small Venue That Made Big History Long before sold-out shows at Red Rocks and global tours, some of music’s biggest legends played in a gritty, intimate bar on University Hill in Boulder, Colorado.

Do these camera's really work? Appearing on Amazon under a number of names this miniature camera really works. I've tried it on macro pictures with good results.

The clarity is quite sufficient for closeups. Although it is not a toy, it can be used as one. At $under $50 it cross…

A lifetime of watching movies has taught me many lessons. Among them are: If you are in the military, never tell the people you’re serving with that you can’t wait to get home to your family, because you will be immediately killed.
