A huge hunk of America is in the path of Hurricane Sandy, a potentially deadly storm. I have a lot of friends in the storm's path -- so I hope you are all okay. The New York Times has disabled the paywall requirement for this weather event, and you can track Sandy and related news on their site and through the NYT mobile apps.
President Barack Obama has already signed emergency declarations in the Commonwealth of Massachusetts and the states of Maryland and New York.
What does all this mean? It means I can't help but post the Scorpions classic "Rock You Like a Hurricane." Please forgive me, but I have to do it. And please be safe, my east coast friends. Here's a twist though: watch as the Scorpions rock out with the Berlin Philharmonic, perhaps the finest orchestral organization in the world. I love this!

Because of immature children, comments are closed on this post and for the next several future posts. Apparently it is okay for me to fit in to your tiny bubble of "Allyson-like-glam-music-good" and nothing more. Someone (and yes, I know who it is, I track every IP) followed me here from Facebook, too childish to address me human to human. People think the Internet makes them invincible. Fine. I am free with my opinions on my Facebook and my Twitter. If you don't like my opinions, it is quite simple: don't follow me. I post my thoughts under my name because I am not spineless.
Why did I close comments? Simple. Because I received a threat (no, not on this site). This will upset my mother and my husband. Personally, I could care less. In fact, I've received threats before. If you know me... you know this hasn't stopped me from voicing my opinions, loud and proud! No, the comments are shut off so you don't upset my mother. She reads everything on this site. She will get upset and then email me. Because immature children upsetting my mother ticks me off, I have to punish the larger group for awhile. It is what it is. But no one will ever silence me. Remember that.
