IRONIES
-- On March 30, several hours
before addressing the nation on
TV about Libya, President Oba-
ma received a prestigious open-
records award presented by five
freedom-of-information advocate
organizations for running a
commendably “transparent,”
accessible administration. How-
ever, news about this award
came about only because the
presenters leaked it to the press.
As noted by The Washington
Post the next day, there was no
White House notice to the
press; the presentation was not
on the president’s calendar; no
photos or transcript were avail-
able; and the award was not
mentioned on the White House
website.
-- Go Figure: (1) The author
of most of the text of The New
York Times obituary on El-
izabeth Taylor, published on
March 23, was Times reporter
Mel Gussow, who passed away
almost six years before Taylor.
(2) At George Washington Uni-
versity’s men’s basketball game
on March 5, accountancy de-
partment professor Robert Kas-
mir was honored at halftime for
being one of the elite financial
donors to the university, but he
was not around for the end of
the game. He was ejected from
the stands in the second half for
harassing a referee about the
officiating.
LEADING ECONOMIC
INDICATORS
-- In February, Wisconsin
state Rep. Gordon Hintz was
caught up in an ongoing in-
vestigation of prostitution at the
Heavenly Touch Massage Parlor
in Appleton that resulted in six
arrests. Police merely issued
Hintz a municipal citation (in-
dicating that he might just have
been in the wrong place at the
wrong time). Nonetheless, Hintz
refused to discuss the matter. “I
am willing to take responsibility
for my actions,” he said, but
“(m)y concern right now” is not
to be “distract(ed) from the
much more important issue” of
“stand(ing) up for Wisconsin’s
working families.”
-- People With Too Much
Money: The average sale price
of a home in Aspen, Colo., in
2010 was about $6 million, and
as of early March 2011, the
lowest-price single-family home
WEEKENDER, WEDNESDAY, APRIL 13, 2011
on the market there was listed at
$559,000, according to a Wall
Street Journal report. The home
is located in a trailer park.
UPDATE
-- News of the Weird reported
in November on the studly se-
nior Shigeo Tokuda, 76, the
still-reigning star of Japanese
“elder porn” that features older
men performing with women
young enough to be their grand-
daughters. In April 2011, “Dave
Cummings,” 71, the best-known
older American porn actor, was
scheduled for induction into the
X-Rated Critics Organization’s
Hall of Fame (along with eight
younger stars). Like Tokuda,
Cummings, a former U.S. Army
officer who changed careers at
age 54, claims almost never to
need Viagra for his movies
(except, he says, for back-to-
back scenes or when working
with a difficult director). Said
one industry insider (describing
Cummings’ style), “He bridges
the gap between ‘creepy uncle’
and the person the creepy uncle
wanted to be.”
CREME DE LA WEIRD
-- Lucas Kocab, 31, was ar-
rested in Medina, Ohio, in Feb-
ruary and charged with “persist-
ent disorderly conduct” after an
incident that he attributed to
having snorted “bath salts.”
Kocab had called police to help
him evict the “30” intruders in
his home, and although none
were found, Kocab insisted that
the intruders were merely mak-
ing it seem like they were not
there and that they were actually
blending into the surroundings,
disguised as chairs or trees.
Police said they were forced to
Taser Kocab because he would
not stop running in circles and
yelling. The police examined the
“bath salts” and determined that
the substance is not illegal in
Ohio.

WEEKENDER, WEDNESDAY, APRIL 13, 2011
By Alan K. Stout
Weekender Music Columnist
SUZE: Ready
for radio
SUZE
S
UZE has been a busy band
since first forming four
years ago. The group has
had some memorable gigs and
has written some quality original
material. But when they take the
stage Wednesday, April 13 at the
Weekender/Mountaingrown
Original Music Series, it will be a
new experience. For the first
time, most of the people they’ll
be playing for won’t be at the
club, but rather jamming at home
or driving in their cars listening
on the radio.
“It’s very exciting,” says vocal-
ist and guitarist Adam McKinley.
“I think it’s cool, and the whole
series in general is awesome. It’s
a great way for bands to get out
there. And some of the other
artists that have done it — they
have names around here — so to
be a part of that fraternity is cool
in itself.”
Though McKinley says the
idea of doing an hour-long, com-
mercial-free live radio perform-
ance can be a bit daunting, he
adds that ultimately, the band will
just do its thing: play.
“I think maybe going into the
first song, you might think, ‘Oh
man, this is in on the radio,’ but I
think once we get going, it’ll just
be another show,” he says. “It’s
been practice as usual, and just
making sure that we’re tight on
the original stuff. Once we get
going, we’ll be in the groove.”
SUZE, based out of Kingston,
was formed in 2007. The band
PAGE 16
features McKinley on vocals and
guitar, Brandin Shaffern on bass
and Kevin Gallagher on drums.
McKinley says that keyboardist
Angelo Miraglia and lead guita-
rist Adam Gabriel, though not
original members, have added a
great new dimension to the pro-
ject.
Two years ago, in a conversa-
tion with “Music On The Menu,”
SUZE named everyone from
Pink Floyd to Elton John, The
Rolling Stones, Led Zeppelin,
moe., Tom Petty, Parliament--
Funkadelic, Phish, The Beatles,
Sublime, Rage Against The Ma-
chine, The Talking Heads, Radio-
head, The Grateful Dead, The
Beastie Boys and NAS as influ-
ences. It was a healthy mix of
modern rock, classic rock and
even a few jam bands.
“It’s stayed the same, some-
what, but it’s changed some-
what,” he says. “Now, we have
more original stuff, and that’s a
testament to the new members,
because they’ve brought in songs
that they’ve written. And I’ve
been able to become a better
songwriter and write what I think
are better songs, and become a
little more expansive, musically.
And some the covers have
changed a lot. We’re still doing
the same type of stuff, but now
we’re doing some keyboard-
driven songs, because we have a
keyboardist. And Adam alone
changed our sound, because he’s
a very aggressive guitarist. We’re
taking advantage of what we have
and using it to the fullest.”
McKinley names “Green Eyed
Lady” by Sugarloaf as a new
addition to the set. He adds that
when SUZE covers Phish, it not

any) contemporaries who do it
so well.
Foo Fighters are a band that

Foos still fighting

“Wasting Light,” the latest
album from alternative rock
heroes Foo Fighters, is a
45-minute high-energy romp
which may be the band’s most
powerful one yet, with a sound
that brings the listener back to
the band’s early days. Many fans
got a preview of this album when
the Foo Fighters released the
single “Rope,” which only served frantic and incomprehensible
to whet their appetites for what (“White Limo”). The real key to down just a bit, but it’s likely that
was to come six weeks later.
The well-chosen opening
track “Bridge Burning” begins
quietly but quickly builds up
to a thunderous roar, and that
dichotomy of quiet and loud
is the theme which defines the
remainder of the album. Guitars
alternate between picking
single notes out of the air and
creating a solid wall of power
chords; bass and drums can be
subtle — even silent — or they
emulate a stampeding horde of
beasts. Dave Grohl’s vocals can
be tender and sweet (“These
Days” or “Dear Rosemary”), or
this quiet/loud mix lies not just most fans would agree that the

opposing sounds, but how all of long as they please.
the instrumentation does it at the
same time. While Foo Fighters
are hardly the first band to use
has nothing left to prove, but
despite that they still keep the bar
high and give “Wasting Light”
their all, which is a tribute to
both their talent as musicians
and to their spirit as artists. This
album is consistent from one
end to the other with each track
an integral part of the overall
composition, making “Wasting
Light” one of those rare albums
with no real filler or fluff to
speak of. One might think that

Fighters would consider slowing

The Smithereens
“2011”
WWWW
Vintage, yet fresh
After an 11-year recording drought,
one of New Jersey’s finest garage-pop
outfits, The Smithereens, return with
a solid slab of melodic thunder simply
titled “2011” (with cover art and title
ironically mimicking the band‘s best
seller, 1989’s “11”). The 30-year-old
band, which is known for college-rock
radio stapes like “Blood and Roses,”
describes these 13 tracks as “vintage
Smithereens,” yet still “fresh” and
“contemporary.”
The boys nailed the aforementioned
tags for this one. They come out
of the gate swinging with “Sorry,”
an open-chord barnstormer with
deliciously addictive melody;
frontman Pat DiNizio’s voice resonant
with his trademark deep intonation.
The band’s reverence for all things
Beatle is no secret as they take the
Lennon/McCartney route through the
meandering tunefulness of “One Look
At You,” layered harmony vocals gently
supporting the lead, while Jim Babjak’s
guitar twangs blissfully away, and
drummer Dennis Diken hammers his
drum heads into oblivion.
The Smithereens offer up darker,
yet still riotously rocking fare with
tracks like the minor key “Ring On
Her Fingers,” which has a certain
haunting reverberation that begs for
repeat listening. Elsewhere “Viennese
Hangover” is a trippy, capricious listen,
complete with bells and swooshing organ
accompaniment, making for something
truly refreshing from the band. The
album’s closer, “What Went Wrong,”
wouldn’t sound out of place played on
Little Steven’s Underground Garage
radio show with the track’s Kinks-
meets-Ramones riffing and tempered,
roughhousing melody.
The Smithereens succeed in stealing
a page from their own glory days, not
losing an ounce of the vibrant, muscular
growl they patented more than two
decades ago, garnishing it with enough
ear-pleasing firepower to win them over
a new crop of disciples..

Joe Bonamassa
“Dust Bowl”
WWWW
Bonamassa’s
creative ‘dust’
The blues purists who once laid
claim to Joe Bonamassa as their own
have further reason to be upset as the
guitarist’s new disc, “Dust Bowl,”
continues his briskly accelerating
evolution as vocalist, songwriter and
suave-cultured musician exploring
limitless possibilities within his music as
well as his career, further straying from
played-out 12-bar blues stagnation.
The ever-burgeoning, prolific nature
of Bonamassa’s work (the new disc
comes little more than a year since
his last solo effort, “Black Rock,” and
just months after the acclaimed Black
Country Communion collaboration) is
evident in tracks like the latter-period
Led Zeppelin vastness of “Slow Train,”
and the stomping, country twang of
“Tennessee Plates,” a bouncy duet with
John Hiatt. On the heavier side, there’s
“Black Lung Heartache,” a seething
tale of heart-wrenching struggle, with
its collision of acoustic Greek baglamas
instrumentation (Santorini, Greece was
one of the disc’s recording locations) and
dropped D-tuned Les Paul ferocity.
Bonamassa’s blues bone is still
present, as proved by the traditional
Chicago shuffle of “You Better Watch
Yourself,” and the slow, raging burn
of “Prisoner.” Elsewhere, he shines on
the playful Southern boogie of “Sweet
Rowena” with iconic country picker
Vince Gill and gently croons his way
through “The Last Matador of Bayonne”
before unleashing a guitar solo of
Herculean proportions.
While his foundations still lie in his
beloved blues, Bonamassa is fearless and
unapologetic about taking the music on
an explosive rocket ride into the furthest
reaches of his own creativity. A bold
statement from one of the most brilliant
(and, at 33, still ripening) guitarists of
our generation.

Before they can be wed,
Fabious’s lady love is stolen
by the scourge of the kingdom,
the evil wizard Leezar (Justin

knights immediately gear
up to give chase and rescue

forces Prince Thadeous to join
his brother in rescuing the
young beauty.
The film takes inspiration
from “Monty Python and The

Is it a r&b record? But it’s kind
of rock-y. Then she says play-

“The Art of
Non-Conformity …”
By Chris Guillebeau
WWWWW
A
wake-up
call
E
very day, millions of
Americans wake up and
begrudgingly head into
work or school, fulfilling expec-
tations that have been placed on
them from society and others in
their lives from the day they were
born. But according to Chris
Guillebeau, maintaining that
status quo just for the sake of it is
not the only way to go. In his
book, “The Art of Non-Conform-
ity: Set Your Own Rules, Live the
Life You Want, and Change the
World,” he outlines the keys to
living a fulfilling life, instead of
chugging through a series of
meaningless or joyless tasks, and
makes a case for a life spent
going against the grain.
A writer and world traveler
who has carved out his own un-
conventional career path, Guille-
beau truly practices what he
preaches — though preaching, in
the traditional sense, isn’t really
his style. “The Art of Non-Con-
formity” is more of a how-to
manual for questioning authority
and striving for a purposeful and
rich life, without worrying what
others think, based on how the
author did it for himself. Broken
down into neatly organized chap-
ters, Guillebeau uses his own
experience to guide an interested
and dedicated reader down the
path less traveled.
Throughout these chapters,
Guillebeau sets up each obstacle
that must be overcome by the
non-conformist and system-
atically knocks them down with
proof from his story and others
who have grown tired of “work-
ing for the weekend” and
branched out on their own. The
author addresses everything from
overcoming fear of change and
redefining a career or establish-
ing an independent business, to
dealing with personal finances
and building a legacy.
If it all sounds a little new
age-y or too good to be true, it’s
not. At least, not when Guille-
beau puts his spin on all of the
looming questions that come with
choosing to stay on the hypotheti-
cal bridge while everyone else is
blindly leaping (an analogy he
employs with great effect). Sure,
his coining of terms, like “vam-
pires” (critics) and “gatekeepers”
(people with a vested interest in
limiting the options of others), is
very reminiscent of the self-help
genre, but his logic and appetite
for life translate to the page in the
form of a wake-up call on which
you don’t want to press Snooze.
And that is because the book
leaves the reader with one big
question: Why do something if
you don’t love it?
It’s safe to say that “The Art of
Non-Conformity” is not for ev-
eryone. Some may dismiss it as a
flimsy way of avoiding “the real
world” (Guillebeau would call
those people critics, and, having
set a personal goal of traveling to
every country in the world, might
argue with that definition of the
“real world”). It may scare the
hell out of others, especially
those who know they want to
make a change but are afraid to
actually go through with it. But
for the true “non-conformists”
out there, Guillebeau’s book will
be a jumping off point for cre-
ating a life well-lived, one that
doesn’t derive from the purely
material, but from self-satis-
faction and the joy of philanthro-
py.
If it all sounds
a little new age-y
or too good to be
true, it’s not.

WEEKENDER, WEDNESDAY, APRIL 13, 2011 designed Record Store Day figurines
and other collectable memorabilia.
Each store will have a varied selection,
some having items that another won’t.
And a larger store like the Gallery
of Sound will surely have a different
selection than smaller stores like
Musical Energi in Wilkes-Barre,
but that doesn’t stop owner Jay
Notartomaso from participating.
Notartomaso said being an
independent store has been a 24-
year labor of love for him, and he
feels that it is important for people
to get involved with the day as it is a
community thing that brings the stores,
fans and musicians all together.
“Come to Record Store Day,” he
said. “Visit all the shops. Get some
free stuff, buy some things to support
your local record store. The ‘big box’
stores are destroying the independent
stores. Don’t let them do it, don’t let
them ruin the music.”

It’s not the same store in every city,

he said. “We’re just happy to be in

Nardone said that every year the

these stores.
“I don’t wanna be in a society where
all you have is Wal-Mart to go to —
that kinda sucks to me.”
Thankfully, to Wayne and Jamie
Sorbelli, owners of Wayne’s World
of Music in Dallas, society hasn’t
let go of them. For 15 years, the two
have run the store, formerly located
in Pittston, which not only sells music
on nearly every medium available,
but also carries various musical
instruments, movies, video games and
consoles. They both said that the store
is often a haven for people looking
for something in particular or chatting
with others about different kinds of
music.

Earth Day
opportunities
E
arth Day 2011 falls on
April 22 and there are
so many things that we
can do to help preserve the
planet as well as celebrate.
This year, Earth Day will
work around an organization
called A Billion Acts of
Green, which is a campaign
that gets both personal and
corporate pledges to live a
more sustainable lifestyle. A
Billion Acts of Green in-
spires individuals and larger
organizations to reduce their
carbon footprint. To pledge
an act of green, simply go
to act.earthday.org. You can
do anything from planting a
tree to even organizing your
own Earth Day event like a
roadside or park cleanup.
The annual Earth Week
cleanup will take place on
Saturday April 23 from 8
a.m.-2 p.m. and is part of
the Great NEPA cleanup.
www.theweekender.com
The cleanup crew will meet
in the parking lot at Ben-
Want us to list your tley’s (2300 Route 309, Ash-
racing schedule? ley) at 8 a.m. and will work
off of Route 309 between
Wilkes-Barre and Mountain
Top. If you cannot volunteer
for the day, you are more
than welcome to help out a
few hours. For more in-
formation, e-mail Jacob Sa-
d e r

Week e n
ski@kings.edu.
Another great way to cele-
n
brate Earth Day this year
e
would be to attend the Jim
Op ad
Thorpe Earth Day Festival,
held on Saturday, April 16
in Jim Thorpe. The festival
Ro ur 04.27.11

that celebrates the Earth as

WEEKENDER, WEDNESDAY, APRIL 13, 2011
To pledge an act of
green, simply go to
act.earthday.org
erythingnaturalpa.com.
The Wilkes-Barre River
Commons is assembling a
green team to help clean up
the area and preserve the
surrounding environment. If
you are willing to help out
with trash removal and other
general environmental duties,
this would be a great way to
fulfill an Earth Day pledge.
To volunteer, visit rivercom-
mon.org/contact.
Communities all around us
are celebrating Earth Day, so
whether you are in the area
or out of town you will be
able to participate in some
type of Earth Day activity.
If you find yourself in New
York City on April 22, you
can attend the Earth Day
event in Times Square start-
ing at 11 a.m. The event is
a public celebration that will
feature interactive exhibits
and a runway show of
“green” vehicles. The Earth
Fair Outdoors is a two-day
festival of art, music and
environment that will be
held in the Grand Central
Terminal in New York City
on April 22-23. This event
will have a large exhibit
area featuring environmental
groups, green businesses and
other activities that include
educational information on
preserving the environment.
So far there have been
more than 80 million acts of
green pledges for this year’s
Earth Day, so go ahead and
make a pledge, whether it’s
big or small, every bit
helps. W

Expires 4-17-2011. But let’s get to the
good stuff: the food. I
started with a cup of yummy
carrot ginger soup, which pre-
ceded our appetizer of bacon-
wrapped sea scallops with
homemade horseradish dipping
sauce. The scallops were mea-
ty, and the bacon was in-
credible; I daresay it was the
best appetizer I’ve ever had.
The poor baked brie with
fruit, too, was tasty, but
600 PITTSTON AVE, SCRANTON
couldn’t hold a candle to the
“SOUTHSIDE” • 570.347.0675

scallops.
Up next was the amazing
Wiener Schnitzel, a breaded
and fried veal cutlet topped
with a lemon slice and a
smattering of capers, which is
now the standard by which all
future Wiener Schnitzels will
be judged, I’m afraid. I chose
the delicious spaetzle noodles

as my starch, but couldn’t help
but try the potato pancakes
with applesauce as well. The
PAGE 46
pancakes were large and crisp,
chockfull of carrots, celery and
onions and went magnificently
with the applesauce.
Even the night’s vegetables,
a medley of green and yellow
beans with carrots were above
average, especially with its
buttery breadcrumb topping.
We ended the meal with a
slice of delectable raspberry
marzipan cake. This was one
of those rare meals that wasn’t
greater than the sum of its
parts: It was all perfect —
and delicious.
As if the food wasn’t
enough, the décor and atmo-
sphere of The Alpine make
you feel like you are some-
where atop the German Alps.
In fact, I was disappointed to
walk out after dinner and not
see that majestic site, that’s
how transformed you feel vis-
iting the establishment. Visit
thealpineonline.com or call
570.253.5899 to take your trip
to the German Alps via Ho-
nesdale.
90 YEARS YOUNG
W
hile ownership has
passed on to his
daughter, Bonk’s Bar
(200 W. Church St., Nanti-
coke) still bears the name of
its original owner Eddie Bonk.
Just as he has been since
Bonk’s opened back in 1977,
the bartender who recently
celebrated his 90th birthday
can still be found behind the
bar on occasion.
“I’m 39 years old,” Bonk
corrected with a smile.
When asked what have been
some of the biggest changes
he’s seen over the years, Bonk
simply replied that “it depends
on who’s running it, but any-
body gets radical, out, and
they don’t come back.”
He jokingly said that
“throwing people out” was his
favorite thing about being a
longtime bar owner, but he
enjoyed getting to know peo-
ple, sort of.
“You don’t get involved,
you’ve got to keep quiet,” he
said. “And people would say,
‘Boy, is he loud.’”
Though he doesn’t imbibe
anymore, Bonk’s drink of
choice was a good, old-fash-
ioned brew.
“It didn’t matter what kind,
beer is beer,” he said.

 A Rainbow shines
WEEKENDER, WEDNESDAY, APRIL 13, 2011
on five locals
By Noelle Vetrosky
Weekender Correspondent
E
ncouraging equality among
all people, promoting ac-
ceptance of each others’
individuality and creating an in-
clusive environment are all big
goals, but when tackled head on,
they make a world of difference in
the quality of life in the region.
The five honorees of the 2011
Northeastern Pennsylvania Rain-
bow Awards have dedicated their
time and effort contributing to
these goals and will be commend-
ed for it at a gala event happening
this Saturday night at the Radisson
Lackawanna Station Hotel in
Scranton.
In the past, Rainbow Award
honorees were recognized at a
dinner and reception, but this year
is going to be a little different with
even more added to the event.
“This is the first year we have a
band and dancing,” said John
Dawe, executive director of the
NEPA Rainbow Alliance. “It’s a
chance to get dressed up and go
out and have a good time.”
Putting on the gala takes a lot of
time and support from the commu-
nity to pull together, and the com-
munity didn’t disappoint as many
businesses came forward to make
a contribution.
“We’ve been working on it for
six months collecting vendors,
reaching out to the community,
creating the program book, etc.,”
said Ron Pritchyk, Rainbow Award
committee member and event
coordinator for the Radisson Lack-
awanna. “A lot of local vendors
donated their services like Tron
Enterprises, Central Park Flowers,
and Frankie Carll Productions.”
This year also marks another
first for the event as there are now
five awards being given out. Re-
cipients will be honored in cate-
gories of Outstanding Community
Volunteer Leader, Outstanding
Public Official, Outstanding Stu-
dent Leadership and Outstanding
Supporter from a Community of
Faith.
Scranton Mayor Chris Doherty,
the chosen Outstanding Public
Official, is honored to be recog-
nized and to be receiving the
award.

paint a portrait of a memory
that is reminiscent of your
youth? Sometimes it’s great to
close your eyes, listen to that
song and relive the point in
time which will forever remain
significant to you. Whenever I
hear Kanye West’s “Flashing
Lights,” I think back to my first
week living in Los Angeles.
In January 2008, I moved
across the country to intern for
the world’s largest entertainment
news provider, E! Entertain-
ment. Only three weeks earlier,
I was cramming for finals when
I received the call from the
administrative assistant to the
executive producer of “True
Hollywood Story” offering me
the opportunity of a lifetime.
Six hours after hugging me
goodbye at the airport with tears
streaming down your faces, I
arrived in Los Angeles. Most 21
year olds would have felt intimi-
dated heading into such an
abrupt adjustment. Thanks to
the confidence you instilled in
me growing up, I embraced the
opportunity with fearlessness.
I was lucky to find a room-
mate online. An Egyptian raised
in Minnesota, Ahmed was a 26
year old who had an important
position at U.S. Bank — and
more importantly, a spare bed-
room at a kickass apartment in
the financial district of down-
town L.A. with two pools, two
fitness centers, a tennis court
and a 24-hour concierge.
Ahmed made me feel at home
the second I arrived, and we
practically became brothers
overnight.
Two days after arriving, I
reported to 5750 Wilshire Blvd.
for duty.
Though I may have entered
the glass doors an arrogant frat
boy notorious for making reck-
less decisions, I exited those
glass doors on my first day with
a new attitude.
That first week, I was im-
pressed to learn the internship
program at E! was designed to
train potential employee’s for

Ride of
the Week
By Michael Golubiewski
Special to the Weekender
the network’s entry-level posi-
tions. That meant no stereotyp-
ical coffee runs or personal
errands for important people.
There were high expectations
for the interns because we
served as a contributor more
than an observer and had the
ability to f--k up more than just
how many sugars a frantic pro-
ducer takes in his morning cof-
fee.
By the end of my first week
as an intern, I was exhausted. I
was still processing everything I
had just taken in. My room-
mate, enervated from his stress-
ful week at work, insisted I join
1969
him in a night on the town to
let loose.
“Work hard during the week
and party hard on the week-
ends,” he preached. “That’s how
the big boys do it!”
Along with a girl I interned
with, we partied at a hot club
called Opera that night. Ahmed
was good friends with a club
promoter, so we didn’t have to
wait in line and walked in be-
hind the lead singer of the Pus-
sycat Dolls. VOLKSWAGEN
KARMANN GHIA
We had a blast that night. On
the drive home, I remember
passing the Kodak Theatre with
the song “Flashing Lights”
playing on the radio. It was the
moment I realized I was in the
first stage of making my dreams

After sleeping through the

riding home with Ahmed and The Karmann Ghia was a 2+2 (two passenger seats in the

Weekender Correspondent
The door to
good health
I
finally have made good my
threat of going back to the
gym. It’s been three months
since my last confession, I mean
gym visit. The reason behind my
lapse in attendance to my health
facility is not what you might
think. First, let us examine why
I am going back.
It has nothing to do with the
fact that my shape has begun to
closely resemble an Anjou pear.
I am not a vain person, even
though I think it’s more like a
Bartlett. Neither does it have
anything to with my fasting
blood sugars looking like a sign
at the gas station. For those of
you who are what we diabetics
call non-diabetic (doctors call
you “healthy”), a blood-sugar
reading should be around 100 or
so in the morning. Not 375 like
the price of regular.
No, the real reason I am going
back is my credit card statement
and this aversion to spending
money on nothing. So let’s hear
it for the monthly gym charge.
It’s worked magic on my motiva-
tion. As for why I stumbled out
of bed today to go torture my-
self that’s the real motivator.
Greed.
The reasons I have been
avoiding the place of sore mus-
cles are complex. I am a lazy,
fat person who, due to the laws
of physics, has come to rest.
Those laws of physics state that
an object at rest would like to
have the snooze alarm feature on
his alarm clock disabled or, at
the very least, sent to the outer
rim of the galaxy. I am at peace
with that choice.
Another reason is that the
concept of no pain, no gain
while sounding good when spo-
ken by a young, gifted athlete
who is chugging a sports bever-
doesn’t sound good to me. In
fact, all I hear is the pain part.
The gain part? I do that with
little or no effort on my own.
But the real reason I have
been shunning the exercise pal-
ace? The door. Recently in an
WEEKENDER, WEDNESDAY, APRIL 13, 2011
effort to do something, I am still
not sure what, the gym installed
a system where the door is
opened by you, the sweaty per-
son to be, with a card like those
you use at the checkout at the
supermarket. You swipe it in the
reader, and it does nothing.
Seriously. There is a sign ex-
plaining that the reader will not
make a noise or change the
colored light on its face or in
any way alert you that it’s work-
ing. That’s good because it only
works about one time in 100.
The door remains locked. Final-
ly, you give up and wrench it
open, your first workout of the
day.
There is also a sign that
strongly suggests you will be
shot if you hold the door open
for anybody. ALL MUST
SWIPE. Which sounds good in
theory, but when you are a guy
and a young, gifted, athletic
female-type person is behind
you, it would be almost ludi-
crous to expect you to slam the
door in her face. Right? So the
gym powers-that-be designed a
backup system. You now have to
sign in. So you not only alert the
computer 100 times by swiping
your card until it’s worn thin,
but you have to scribble your
name. I am sure this is checked
by … someone. No doubt the
person who used to ask for your
name when you walked in be-
fore the door of death was in-
stalled. No wait. They fired him.
So after the daily fight with
the door, and the extreme agony
of doing physical activity for the
first time since Christmas, I
crawled to my car and drove
almost all the way home before
I went back for my cell phone.
And faced the door again.
Tomorrow will go better. I am
sure. I have smashed the alarm
clock with a hammer. W

WEEKENDER, WEDNESDAY, APRIL 13, 2011
By Jayne Moore
Weekender Correspondent
Behind
the
barriers
W
orking on a road con-
struction site is danger-
ous work. Not only are
you working around very large
machinery and working in some-
times bad weather, there is also
the danger of any passing motori-
st coming in contact with the
machinery or even worse, the
workers. In a press release sent to
me by PennDOT Press Officer
James May, the number of acci-
dents was staggering: “According
to PennDOT data, there were 22
people killed in work zones in
Pennsylvania last year. Four
construction workers were killed,
including three PennDOT em-
ployees and one contractor. Three
of those worker deaths were
caused by a public vehicle enter-
ing the work zone. Since 1970,
82 PennDOT employees have
been killed in the line of duty.”
These numbers can be reduced
by simply having motorists pay
attention to work zone signage
and simply slowing down.
The first week of April was
Work Zone Safety Week. Bet you
didn’t know that. Actually, I
didn’t either until I met May and
Construction Project Manager
SCOOTER PIE Jim Grabowski. They took me on
a tour of a work site near Hun-
lock Creek. This site was chosen
FERRET because many bike runs and rides
use this route as it is very scenic
Owner: and a quiet, winding country
Dee Ray road. While we pay attention to
the larger work zones on the
Sterling, PA interstate highways, these smaller
work zones are also manned by
workers who just want to do a
Enter your pet for Weekender’s day’s work and return home safe
PET OF THE WEEK at night.
Another interesting statistic
by sending photo, pet’s name, breed from the press release: “In 2010,
if applicable, owner’s name and there were 1,884 crashes in work
zones, a dramatic increase from
hometown to: the 1,519 crashes in 2009 and the

were a total of 8,302 work-zone
crashes and 114 fatalities.” Why

construction site in Hunlock Creek.

zones, an increase from 2009’s 1,519.
is this happening?
I asked Grabowski if he pre-
ferred working behind the bar-
riers, he replied, “Much prefer to
be behind barriers, working with
cones is nowhere near as safe.”
He said that he has seen a few
accidents and recounted one
story that happened on Route
309 in Dallas. “This lady was
driving, reading the newspaper,
and she hit the car in front of her
in the work zone. I could read her
lips saying, ‘I was reading the
newspaper.’” Lucky no one was
hurt in that small fender bender.
We got to talking a bit about
the road gravel and how it affects
riders and acts like marbles
which can cause skids. Grabow-
ski pointed out that “Every con-
struction zone is required to keep
the work zone clear of debris to
keep it safe for motorists. If you
are working in a zone with a lot
of dirt and gravel, they are re-
quired to keep the dust down,
mostly using water but also other
liquids if that doesn’t work.”
The construction zone in Hun-
lock Creek was a bit unusual as it
was situated amid several houses.
They are building a new bridge
to replace one that was washed
out in a flood. It was actually
kind of neat to watch as they put
in sheeting to redirect the flow of
water in the creek so that they
could build first one side then the
other. There was a huge crane
that used a tool to pound the
sheets into the creek bed, which
caused quite a racket.
“We have a monitor on all
houses to monitor vibration so
we know how much vibration is
going on,” Grabowski said, add-
ing that this particular project
should be done by Thanksgiving.
I think the residents will be glad
to have a bridge back and some
quiet!
Grabowski spoke highly of the
crew that was working there.
“The five guys on this bridge
crew are really great. I’ve worked
with them before, and they are
safe and work well together. “
I asked May and Grabowski
what would make things safer for
the workers, they both agreed
that getting people to pay atten-
tion slow down and stop texting.
Grabowski said that he has seen
any number of people texting as
they are going through the work
zones. That is something that is
really dangerous.
Grabowski is a 20-year veteran
of PennDOT who works out of
the Dunmore District Office.
This district, District 4, covers
six counties, and he’s worked in
all of them over the years. May is
PennDOT’s newest Safety Press
Officer; his background includes
seven years as an Army Chaplin
who was attached to the 52nd
Engineers attached to the 101st in
Iraq. Most recently May worked
for Governor Tom Corbett’s staff.
So keep it safe out there
whether you are on a bike or in a
car. The work zone is someone’s
job. Let them make it home at the
end of the day. W

ARIES (MARCH 21-APRIL 19)
When the theoretical becomes actual, it’s
a whole new ball game. Don’t be scared,
though. Even though the real life version of
your vision or fantasy is much more com-
plex, daunting, and imperfect than the one
living in your imagination—it’s also real.
It’s worth tackling and accepting these
things. It might not seem like it at first, but
those complicating ripples are actually
going to make this experience richer, more
challenging, exciting, engaging and ulti-
mately better than if your fantasy had sim-
ply become reality exactly as you envi-
sioned it. Of course, if you’re too freaked,
you’ll miss out. You’re not too freaked, are
you?
TAURUS (APRIL 20-MAY 20)
Placing blame is sometimes important,
especially when it comes to someone tak-
ing responsibility for something they
screwed up, and taking pains to keep it
from happening again. However, much of
the time pointing fingers accomplishes
nothing and in fact creates a situation that’s
much less productive, enjoyable, and suc-
cessful for everyone — including yourself.
It’s OK to figure out the root of the prob-
lem in your own head, but before you voice
your conclusions, ask yourself if much (or
any) good would come of such disclosure
(which might come off more like accusa-
tions than anything else), then act accord-
ingly.
GEMINI (MAY 21-JUNE 20)
Remember what’s important. It’s so easy
to get caught up in others’ perceptions, or
the politics of a situation, and lose sight of
what actually matters — mostly what’s in
your heart and what you do about it.
Whether that’s what someone else wants
you to do is irrelevant (unless they have
significant power over you, in which case
you might not have much choice). Your job
is to stay attuned to that inner voice that
compels you to act in a way that feels right
to you, and, at least to some extent, ignore
anyone that tells you otherwise.
CANCER (JUNE 21-JULY 22)
There’s a time to spend and a time to
save. Sometimes, hoarding what you’ve got
is the smart thing to do, but often it doesn’t
do you much good — while spending it
intelligently might prove fairly wonderful.
This is one of those times when the bene-
fits of wise, thoughtful expenditures will
far outweigh the theoretical pluses of bank-
ing your cash. By “wise” and “thoughtful,”
I don’t necessarily mean investments in
your future (though those can qualify), but
rather investments in your present. If you
can greatly enhance your quality of life
right now without severely diminishing
your ability to enjoy it later, why shouldn’t
you?
LEO (JULY 23-AUG. 22)
Being real doesn’t mean letting it all
hang out all the time. While being decep-
tive or dishonest is a bad idea, you can still
be authentic without revealing everything
about yourself at every turn. Be an open
book, as you’re inclined, that is, honestly
answer any question that’s asked, and offer
any information that seems relevant to the
situation at hand. Then shut up about the
rest. Sure, you have nothing to hide, and
you’re pretty great overall. However, re-
member this: wearing a little mystery can
only add to your allure. This week, try it.
VIRGO (AUG. 23-SEPT. 22)
It’s generally a good idea to give some-
one else time to make up their mind, partic-
ularly if the decision is a weighty or tricky
one. At some point, though, enough’s
enough, and it’s time for them to come to
some conclusion on the matter. If you think
you’re being at all hasty, consult with more
than one friend you consider wise and
successful in this area of life before you
push the issue. Then, when you do, don’t
jump right into ultimatum mode, but gently
begin the process of letting them know
time is running out. Hopefully, “Jeopardy”
theme music won’t be necessary, but if
after a few weeks or months (depending on
your patience) they still can’t decide, you
may have to accept that they’ll probably
never be able (or willing) to.

LIBRA (SEPT. 23-OCT. 22)
Let’s say you were writing an e-mail to a
friend about someone you were dating, a
very frank and explicit e-mail brutally
listing all their flaws, as well as the things
you like about them. Then, you accidental-
ly send the e-mail to the person in question.
Such a gaffe is very likely a deal-breaker,
but there’s a chance you can salvage the
situation — by quite simply owning what
you said, instead of trying to desperately
backpedal. It might be hard for you diplo-
matic Libras to claim your harshest words
and feelings, but demonstrating that you
can be that honest and real can only work
in your favor. If you find yourself in such a
situation, try it, it’s not like you have any-
thing to lose.
SCORPIO (OCT. 23-NOV. 21)
Scorpios abide by their own set of per-
sonalized ethics that don’t always perfectly
coincide with those popular in modern
society. I don’t think there’s any stopping
you from pursuing these activities you so
conveniently rationalize as “harmless” (or
nearly so), even if they’re sketchy. That’s
fine. Just do everyone else a favor of keep-
ing them secret. If you reveal your ques-
tionable behaviors, you put other people in
the touchy spot of having to be tacit ac-
complices to whatever you’re up to, or
having to call you on it. Better to eat your
cake in secret, then hide the crumbs.
SAGITTARIUS (NOV. 22-DEC. 21)
Perfectly lovely people are still occasion-
ally capable of doing perfectly abominable
things when they’re under stress. In such
WEEKENDER, WEDNESDAY, APRIL 13, 2011
circumstances, I’m not suggesting you
ought to issue them a free pass, but an
isolated incident of bad behavior should
probably be met with compassion rather
than judgment. Patterns, even emerging
ones, should be addressed directly, but the
best way to deal with a freak-out is to sim-
ply be supportive and help everyone move
on. That, my dear, is what friends are for.
This week, don’t be judge and jury, parent,
or critic. Just be a friend.
CAPRICORN (DEC. 22-JAN. 19)
What you’re up to is a lot like raking dry
leaves on a very windy day. Much of your
labor is erased by the gusts scattering the
piles you’ve meticulously made. How
frustrating! You can, of course, continue to
slog away at the task, and, given your per-
sistence and determination, you will even-
tually get it done. But ask yourself: Is this
really something that has to be finished
today? I know you’re leery of excuses to
procrastinate, but sometimes, in the name
of efficiency and actually accomplishing
your goals, your best bet is to put off a task
until you can accomplish it without the
very elements fighting against you.
AQUARIUS (JAN. 20-FEB. 18)
Having an opinion is a fine thing (and
it’s not like I could stop you). However,
sometimes it crosses over into being judg-
mental, which isn’t something that’s likely
to bring you joy or do anyone any good. It’s
perfectly fine to steer clear of an aspect of
someone’s life that you’re not crazy about,
but shunning or condemning them for it is
just generally a bad idea. Instead, focus on
the positive things you enjoy, and change
the subject rather than harp on your push-
button topics, if you want to avoid pointless
unproductive conflict and stress this week
— and I can’t imagine why you wouldn’t.
PISCES (FEB. 19-MARCH 20)
Symbols are just that: symbols. Invest
them with too much meaning and they
could obscure the truth of whatever they’re
supposed to represent. Is a marriage a ring,
for example? A ring doesn’t make some-
one less likely to cheat or more likely to be
a good partner. Whether or not someone
wears your ring might or might not have
meaning; instead of getting too caught up
on one little thing, take a look at the broad-
er issues behind the symbol you’re quietly
obsessing about. If things seem sweet
otherwise, I’d suggest letting go of this
particular symbol; it’s ultimately irrelevant.
