Fringles? Pritos? I distilled the names and they came out drunk (with and alembic still of course)

Aaaaaaaarrrrrrrrggggggghhhhhhhh UNKIND DONUTS

Born Under A Bad Sign - Albert King And one with Stevie Ray

Wibbles and S.L.I.P., please tell me, how do I un-see those pictures :D

The chips are down

Jorge Caballero - Capriccio Espagnol - (by Rimsky Korsakov)

We each have our own viewpoint and ethics. Me? I do not want to inflict permanent physical damage on the people who come to see me. IMO Not only is it like biting the hand that feeds me, but knowing my fans and talking with them year after year, they are like extended family to me. I feel I'm responsible, I'm the pro, I know the limits, they should trust me.

She-Wolf - Megadeth

My random thought for today. It's freakin' cold, only going to get to the low 70s today. I think I need to move to Key West (but I can't afford that).

You are correct. I hadn't thought of that until you mentioned it. Thanks!

Mr. Airplane Man - Howlin' Wolf

One of my favorite acoustic slide players: "Dallas" - Johnny Winter

I think I'll call it "God's Waiting Room's Band" ?

Last entry 96 Tears. We gigged locally with that band. A DJ in Flint MI bought half share in their band and broke the record which was 69 tears until they went into the recording studio and the DJ said it wouldn't get airplay. "The Tears Of A Clown" - Smokey Robinson & The Miracles A bassoon player got work on that session. I worked at Motown for a year or so, opened for a lot of their acts, and Berry used to hire Detroit Symphony Orchestra players for a lot of the sweetening parts.

Is that some kind of fish?

I'll be playing music and hopefully gigging until I can no longer fog a mirror ;)

Motion in Non-Motion Here you find a series of slits roving across an illustration, thus allowing only small bits of information at a time. Our brain then fills in the gaps of different stages and recreates the experience of viewing fluid movement. If you're feeling dumb and disappointed in the power of the human brain, don't—as you can see, the cat in this video was also fooled.

"All the cops in the donut shop say Ay oh whey oh, ay oh whey oh Walk like an Egyptian" (We finally learned that song, it's fun. Wish we learned it years ago)

Remember, you need a purpose in life. Working is good, but you need to work where you either enjoy the work, or feel you are needed. It's a recipe for a long life. I've gigged at retirement communities since I was 40. We play a lot of them over and over again, and we get to know the people. Those who get "retirement disease" are usually the first ones to die. They used to say "Don't let the rocking chair get you" now it's "Don't let the TV (or Hulu) get you". The long lived folks in Japan call it ikigai https://medium.com/thrive-global/ikigai-the-japanese-secret-to-a-long-and-happy-life-might-just-help-you-live-a-more-fulfilling-9871d01992b7 Ikigai (生き甲斐, pronounced [ikiɡai]) is a Japanese concept that means "a reason for being." The word "ikigai" is usually used to indicate the source of value in one's life or the things that make one's life worthwhile. Congratulations on getting to Uncle Sam's list. No be careful who you vote for, one political party is trying to take that away - google "starve the beast" (with quotes). Remember, you paid all your life, don't let the super-rich steal that money from you. I got on at 63, could have done 62 but I procrastinated.

Good stuff, some of Bizet's best ? In the Court of the Crimson King - King Crimson

Secrets That She Keeps - Roxette

Don't worry, the cops are on their way!!!

It got interrupted before it was done yesterday, so I'm listening to it again today, hopefully until completion.
