Just discovered this composer/pianist thanks to a customer today. An Ethiopian nun who passed on in 2023 at the age of 99. Lovely music.

truly scary shit.

“If you are inclined to jettison liberalism and join the forces of Trumpism because you are eager to crush people whom you imagine to be demonic, you ought to consider that perhaps, without knowing or intending it, you are not serving God at all. You are working for the other guy”

not sure about back loaded, at least in LA. Raises for teachers and nurses are barely a COLA. and I have both in the family and they do the work because it satisfies, not because it pays. Side jobs help.

no anthrax worries in SE Asia in the 70’s. Cholera was the big one.

I did too before my granddaughter was born, just a little sore. Not as painful as the covid. Neither hit me like shingles, that literally had me in bed feeling like I had a bad case of the flu. as a kid the state department shot us all up with cholera, yellow fever, plague and I still got dengue🦟

although tb fair, I’ve had excellent crab cakes in Bmore and at least last time I visited, it was a pretty cool city.

one of my best friends from high school ran a seafood business in Annapolis. when he came to visit and had boiled crabs for the first time it changed his whole perspective. 🦀🦀

nice guy.

“LaBeouf’s Channel 5 interview was a more eloquent response about the allegations against him in New Orleans than that which he offered a Guardian journalist who had previously approached him about the matter.

He told that journalist: “Get your ass up out of here, you silly bitch.””

I’m not, but I know many who are. They are very bright but vicious. They raid the night heron nests and swarm the red shouldered hawks and go after baby rabbits and foxes. Did see a bald eagle the other day just look at a murder bugging her and shrug, like yall gotta bring more than that 😎

my older dog, a very peaceful female golden retriever, killed a rat on the levee when we were walking after dark. Jumped sideways before I could react and had it tossed and broken in a second. Crows are like bikers, they attack everything. Watched a family of rabbits fight them off the other day.

just back from taking the dogs to City Park and this is correct!

I’ve never been for pho on a saturday but it’s a regular lunch stop when I’m working uptown weekdays. Korean pork is fire, but I’ve never had anything that wasn’t good. He’s brilliant.
