R.I.P. Antone 'Chubby' Tavares. When I bought this with my 11th birthday Record Token I believed it to be the greatest record ever made. Still in my top 10, played it at my 60th. Saw them live in the 1990s, it was ace. The cowbell pattern alone is worth a million dollars. youtu.be/J123lM0RvzM?...

What a truly pathetic, faux-provocative thing to say. SLI is a real life necessity for auditory impaired people. It’s generations olD & to seek to stir up more culture wars bullshit by calling it ‘woke’ beggars belief. I’m with Kathy Burke: “I’d much rather be woke than an ignorant fucking twat.”

He had the greatest post-presidency in history. I also think about how he put his peanut farm in trust when he became president & compare that to the conflict of interest cesspool we have coming in now. RIP Mr. Jimmy. meidasnews.com/news/jimmy-c...

Sad to hear of the death of Boring Bob Grover of The Pirhanas. 'Tom Hark'/'Getting Beaten Up'/Girlfriend' was one of the best value items any of us ever spent money on. You 'ave to laugh, or else you'd cry.

President Jimmy Carter has passed away at the age of 100. He was a symbol of what is best about America: kindness, compassion, duty and service. He will be missed, most of all by those who long for a return of that kind of country, led by a man with such strength of character.
