Kind of psychedelic start to Thursday at work.

I was thinking of painting a crude, but sizable penis on the White House. Kind of along the lines of a content label. It should be ok as long as I pay for the paint myself, right?

Yah, but then I wake up and there it is, unexploded.

Ooh! Are they putting in an Arby’s?! It takes a village to fuck the nation, you know.

My friend Tony the Shark and myself at the March in Bethlehem PA. An argument could be made that a large share of our emissions were contained in our outfits. Phew!

Oh, yes! Mack Heath is creepy! So funny how that is just not there in Bobby Darin’s version. Except maybe that one drum fill later in the song where it sounds like drums and drummer are tossed down the stairs. πŸ™‚

My part was! I took a really deep breath at the beginning, and let it out 2 hours later.

With my seeing eye shark Tony in Bethlehem PA. A lovely day to not put up with it.

It’s a little bit of a specialty of mine, actually. One of the benefits of being 6’3” and large is that it tends to have a dampening effect on cowards. Which most of these assholes are.

Yeah, and authoritarianism doesn’t do a lot of creeping.

You know how people who are such fans of a misreading of the second amendment say they need to be armed in case an overzealous government oversteps it’s bounds?

Ok, sometimes this site makes me
crazy. I don’t generally follow the latest Swifty news, but what is this about? I just googled, and saw nothing but the new album… a curious public wants to know!

Is it legal for me to strongly dislike Charlie Kirk? Do non-fans of this hateful person get sent somewhere specific? BTW - I abhor Trump and am not β€œanti-American.”

I thank you, sir. I guess it's germane to point out, for the general public, that I have a small raft of health concerns, so that a mildly positive result stands out from the background noise a bit.

Smiling doctor giving thumbs up

An odd deficit I just became aware of: I have a small number of friends with whom I could discuss a moderate health problem; but no one is at a level of intimacy that I could share a doctors appointment that had no bad news, or moderate good news (and have them find it of interest.)

I admit it. I would need a little food on the side.

Nickelodeon played one song, once, in 1990. They send a mathematically indeterminate number between a dime and thirteen cents from time to time. And yes, that’s for the whole band.

I bought ultra hi-res downloads of Nos. 4 to 9, Karajan (with the cover image on the left, the wing.) And they were crazy cheap! It drew me back to listening to him. I always feel kind of sad for him when listening. I feel like he needed to carouse with Mahler, making fun of Wagner a little.

On the positive side, that snide, smug smirk creates as much energy as a thousand suns. Sadly it's all in the form of heart's rage.

Isn't that exactly why we DO have silly pet videos? Of the two things in the post, the one you want to curtail is the pleasant one? It's like "until the world is fixed no one should make art, or spend money on the arts." Fucking sparrowfarts have no perspective on anything.

Just when you think all the riches have been mined from "Hang On Sloopy," along comes a version that amazes and delights. I thank you!

Bach has 2 things that could keep revealing themselves to you for ever, IMO. The B minor mass, and the Art of the Fugue. That said, how many days am I up for a lesson? Surely, the thing that’s been played the most is the solo cello. For Vivaldi, 4 Seasons arranged for recorder 4tet with Verbruggen.

True, but three of those in a row are because it’s the chorus. Catchy.
