The Kingston Daily Freeman Blogs: City Editor's Blog: Scary math

Scary math

I just saw an ad on TV for the upcoming Grammy Awards. It focused on the fact that the show will feature live performances by Justin Bieber, Katy Perry, Lady Gaga and Mick Jagger.

Bieber is 16 years old. Perry is 26. Gaga is 24.

Jagger is 67 ... older than the other three combined.

Ouch.

About Me

Jeremy Schiffres has been the city editor at the Daily and Sunday Freeman in Kingston, N.Y., since late 1990. He joined the Freeman in early 1988 as a copy editor. A native of Rochester and a graduate of SUNY College at Buffalo, Schiffres' previous newspaper gigs were at The Niagara Gazette in Niagara Falls, N.Y., and The Saratogian in Saratoga Springs, N.Y. If you want to keep his attention, be sure to talk about Buffalo-area sports teams, the highs and lows of Elton John's music career or the finer points of making chili -- or just challenge him to a game of Scrabble. Schiffres, 50, lives in Kingston with his wife, Rhona. Their 19-year-old son, Marc, is a student at the Rochester Institute of Technology.
