The amount of apathy toward Jimmy cracking corn is too damned high.

In the past two days, "amuse-bouche" has come up in three very different and completely unrelated scenarios. I don't know what the universe is trying to tell me, but I hope it's tasty.

Enjoy this beautiful July day, but be sure and bring your winter coat, balaclava, thermal gloves, wool socks, body warmer pads, and tauntaun to slice open and get inside when the sun dips below the tree line, because this is PNW after all.

There was a day, probably in the very early 2000s, when I used a 3.5” floppy disk to access a file, took the disk out, put it away, and never used a floppy disk again. An era suddenly ended and I didn’t know it. Sorry, yes, I’ll have fries with that.

Real talk, though - if I'm out alone at night and somebody I apparently don't know at all whispers "please adore me" near enough for me to hear it, that moon ain't turning to gold.

I think it's time we all reevaluated our beliefs about further ado.

Mitch Mitchell not taking over as The Who's drummer after Keith Moon died is one of the great missed opportunities in rock.

I was today years old when a yoga instructor relieved me of years of feeling inferior by saying that it’s physically impossible to actually get the hips straight during warrior one.

I had a CD back in the day of a jazz singer who wasn’t well known but managed to get Ron Carter in the band. There were reviews of singer in the liner notes to which Carter contributed: “If you can find a better singer, give me a call!” I still think about that from time to time.

I confused Todd Rundgren with Peter Frampton and had to be schooled by a student of a music class I was teaching. Something something beat on, boats against the current.

In the fullness of time, all music that is the product of the coordinated, simultaneous efforts of multiple human beings physically interacting with physical instruments for the immediate enjoyment of other humans in their proximity might be considered "classical".

That should not be surprising, and thus, not surprisingly, it’s not surprising.

Kinda like 555-xxxx in place of potentially real phone numbers, it'd be nice if film & tv didn't use real iPhone alarm/call sounds. I'm watching to AVOID my responsibilities, not be reminded of them.

Mad at Marconi Union for putting vocals in their tracks like people shouting JUDAS! at Dylan when he went electric.

Of course I get the spirit and the value of “there is no past or future, only the present”, but I think sometimes it’s merely an unhelpful or even harmful trick of language. There is no past, but there WAS the past. There is no future, but there WILL BE a future.
