This coming winter storm is neither funny nor cute

The Jersey City Desk is suspending the usual fun we have with storms and snow events to remind you, the temperatures coming after midnight tonight through Monday afternoon are DANGEROUS. Check on neighbors you feel are at risk. Bring animals inside. We're talking -20º to -30º wind chills for extended periods. If you see someone outside who may be having difficulty at least call someone to help them. This one storm it's OK to err on the side of caution when it comes to calling 911.

Well they upped the amount of snow by tomorrow night to 3-5"which Johnny was reading will make the supreme cold air we're going to get even colder as the snow draws moisture from the air making it drier and colder. So when it's 30 below with wind chill Sunday and Monday morning you think how pretty that snow looked coming down Saturday afternoon.

Stupid snow.

Friday night MULTIMEDIA EXTRAVAGANZA with THE CLASH!

What better band to use to make a point about freedom of music availability. Now Johnny's not saying music should be free. Follow him for a second on this one. Sunday night Saturday Night Live is holding a huge 40th anniversary show with the best clips from 40 years and stars and of course MUSIC. Every Saturday Night Live has had a musical guest. Everybody who is somebody has played SNL. So, go on YouTube and watch some of those amazing clips of all that iconic music. Go ahead. No, just keep trying. Maybe it's just that song. Try again, search by bands you know that have been on SNL. No? Nothing?

There's part of the problem isn't it? Johnny was gonna make tonight's Music Series all about the great music we're all grown up with on SNL and he can barely bring any of it to you. It's just not right. Wait Johnny, did you say barely? Yes fans, from a live television program that airs at night once a week but sometimes more, here's The Clash and their haunting classic 'Straight to Hell' to kick off the Music Series in a pissed off sort of way.

Friday night MULTIMEDIA EXTRAVAGANZA with k.d. lang & THE RECLINES!

Sherman, set the Way Back Machine to 1987 and move the furniture to the outside of the room. Good. Now, everybody grab a partner. Now drop that diamond needle on the record and away we go. k.d. lang & the Reclines with 'Turn Me Round'

The next dance will be a circle square.
