THE Dick Justice, a close personal friend of mine, has a different job these days! He's finished with the whole discipline gig and is co-teaching a class or two with his fabulous wife. Of course, these are the kind of things you only know if you're a close personal friend of the real Dick Justice, as I am.

I totally forgot about that band. I think they did a Lindsay Buckingham cover.

Great band. If memory serves me right, one of the Champaign news stations (possibly WCIA) came out to cover their debut. Of course, the media hungry dick justice (the band) thought the camera crew was there for them and the ever meek Jumpknuckle hoped the camera crew was there for anyone but them. I believe members of both bands ran into each other hurrying towards and away from the crew . . . something right out of the Keystone Cops.

THE Dick Justice has changed jobs. Really? The end of an era . . .
