Frank Gehry died this month at the age of 96. Let’s hope the era of the “starchitect” dies with him. The term was coined to describe the superstar architects whose work everyone simply had to have. Mr. Gehry was the prime example. His Guggenheim Museum Bilbao in Spain drew millions of tourists to see its sweeping, swirling form when it opened in 1997. The Toronto-born Mr. Gehry became perhaps the world’s most sought-after architect.

“Bondi was a warning shot,” cautions Cary Kogan, professor of psychology at the University of Ottawa. “If Western governments aren’t going to deal with the issue (of antisemitism), this is what we’re going to end up with.

I go way back with East Nashville troubadour Todd Snider, who died Nov. 14. One of my fondest memories comes from the 1990s, when his band, the Nervous Wrecks, were doing some dates with my band, the Rugburns. We played wiffle ball inside a club in Indianapolis in the middle of the day. I remember thinking, “You can do this? Play wiffle ball inside a club during soundcheck.”Singer-songwriter Will Kimbrough was smiling the whole time as he pitched to me. He played lead guitar in the Nervous Wrecks and threw a mean curveball. Todd was the instigator and the merrymaker.
