Hey Folks:

Here at the B.O.N.E. Chronicles we LOVE cartoons. I mean we really heart them big time; so much that our children have renamed all the members of our family to Justice League characters. Today I heard about the passing of Dwayne McDuffie, the creator of many Kids WB action cartoons that were well written, educational and super entertaining.

Dwayne McDuffie, wrote comic books for Marvel and DC and co-founded his own publishing company before crossing over to television and animation, he passed away on 2/22 at the age of 49 one day after his birthday. A few of our favorite comics that Dwayne was responsible for are “Justice League: Crisis on Two Earths” and the animated TV series “Static Shock”.

Hey Folks:

Welcome to another edition of Old School Thursday.

Earlier this month we lost another Gospel Music great Bishop Walter Hawkins!

Bishop Hawkins passed away on July 11th after a bout with pancreatic cancer. Hawkins career included singing with his brother’s in the Northern California State Youth Choir, later he formed a group with his brother Edwin and founded The Edwin Hawkins Singer. Through this group Hawkins became world known with their hit song “Oh Happy Day”.  In the early 1970s Hawkins left the group and became the Pastor of Love Center Church in Oakland, CA which he founded. There he started a Choir which received lots of love with well over a million copies sold from the 70s until the 90s in their  “Love Alive”  series! Bishop Hawkins also produced and collaborated on over 100 hit songs including recording with Diahanna Carroll, Sylvester and Jeffrey Osborne.

In honor of Bishop Hawkins I’d like to feature five of my old time fav old school Gospel tunes. Read the rest of this entry »

Hey Folks:

Welcome to another Old Skool Thursday. Today I’d like to take you back… way back… back into time.

Back to a time when television was about creative writing and funny sitcoms, not reality stories that aren’t at all real! A time when everyone knew the theme song and sat down to listen to it.

Here are five that I love and think are creative and  good enough to listen too without watching the show!
