I (and my children) loved The Cricket in Times Square series. Boy, I miss reading books to children! Just waiting on grandchildren now...

Sarah is great - I've watched a lot of her videos.
VCV Rack is great. I also use MiRack. Sometimes into my physical modular setup.

He was a wonderful painter, and should be better known

I don't think most Americans have any idea how dangerous it is for a president to declare an entire ethnic group to be "garbage." This is how the worst atrocities in human history have begun.
