In the mid-1970s, Good Timesmade a star of actor/comedian Jimmy 'JJ'/'Dynomite' Walker. However, behind the scenes, the tension between the stars was relatively challenging. According to what Jimmie Walker once relayed, most of the show's cast rarely had any interaction behind the camera. Walker didn't recall having any conversations with actress Esther Rolle, who played his TV mother, Florida Evans, or actor John Amos, who played James Evans, his TV mother.

Better Than Ezra Legends of the Fall: Tokyo Drift Tour | Nancy & David Bilheimer Capitol Theatre | November 17th. Alt-rock icons, Better Than Ezra, make their Bilheimer Capitol Theatre debut with the Legends of the Fall: Tokyo Drift Tour! For over 35 years, Better Than Ezra have maintained a direct line to the unbridled joy of making music, endlessly dreaming up songs with an uncanny power to linger forever in the listener’s heart. Since the arrival of their breakthrough album Deluxe—a platinum-selling LP featuring their era-defining smash hit Good—the New Orleans-bred band’s bittersweet but quick-witted songwriting and supremely catchy sound have led to triumphs like landing on Billboard’s “100 Greatest Alternative Artists of All Time” and “100 Greatest Alternative Songs of All Time” lists. Thanks to the massive success of the multi-platinum Good (a #1 hit on the Hot Modern Rock Tracks chart), the band became an MTV staple and soon deepened their catalog with timeless hits like Desperately Wanting (from 1996′s Friction, Baby). Through the years, they’ve continued to sell out amphitheaters and arenas worldwide while turning out acclaimed albums like 2014′s All Together Now, featuring the hit single Crazy Lucky. With their legacy including superstar Taylor Swift’s cover of their classic song Breathless, the band have also launched the Better Than Ezra Foundation to support their hometown through such endeavors as coastal restoration projects and after-school programs for underprivileged kids.

No, pallet shelters for people experiencing homelessness don’t fold into caskets. It’s a question a reader posed one of the first times I wrote about pallet shelters. I find the pallet shelters to be more palatable than ice fishing tents. The Colorado Village Collaborative operates both micro-communities and the so-called Safe Outdoor Spaces with the tents. We all learned the tents are not safe when a fire roared through a CVC Safe Outdoor Space, destroying the compound quickly. Officials never disclosed a cause of the fire.
