Sorry to see Bob Biniak pass. There is an interesting generational component to his story. The Z-Boys, like the Beastie Boys and Sugar Hill Gang, were part of a generational “missing link” between Baby Boomers and Generation X: the newly identified Generation Jones (born 1954-1965). This component is crucial in understanding the historical context of Biniak and the Z-Boys. Google Generation Jones, and you’ll see it’s gotten lots of media attention, and many top commentators from many top publications and networks (Washington Post, Time magazine, NBC, Newsweek, ABC, etc.) now specifically use this term. In fact, the Associated Press' annual Trend Report chose the Rise of Generation Jones as the #1 trend of 2009. I found this page helpful because it gives a pretty good overview of recent media interest in GenJones: http://generationjones.com/2009latest.html Interesting blog. Sorry to see Bob Biniak pass.

She was my first choice in American Idol and sadly she did not make it. Susan Boyle has a great voice, no doubt about that. She was my first choice in American Idol and sadly she did not make it.
