Regarding Eclectic. Yeah. My favorite bands are old Genesis, Pink Floyd, old Chicago, Tower of Power, King Crimson, Renaissance, heck. Even Herb Alpert and the TJB is climbing my list. Those guys had it NAILED. And their vinyl price is growing rapidly these days. 😎 And Peter Gabriel.👍

We ARE the same. I cut my teeth at Seattle blues jams as a bass player. I learned to not respect the blues much, even though I sing a couple in my band. The reason you can have a "blues" jam and not pop or rock jams, is because blues is so formulaic. Just know how to end the song.👍

And the doors! What made them so famous was what's his name's stage antics. Kids like stuff that's "different". It's why I liked Black Sabbath when I was a kid. Then I grew up. And once I became an audiophile, fuggetaboutit. Though I'm not an audiophile any more either.

I don't understand why you lumped those two together. The only guy with that sort of reputation is Epstein. All others are being thrown in that basket BECAUSE they partied with him, especially on the island. Tom hanks is one. www.youtube.com/watch?v=XEvX...

I'm with you on country - and the rolling stones, for that matter. But when in a cover band you sometimes play stuff you don't like. And even then, though I'm NOT a country fan, there are a few songs I like, just like I like a couple of Rolling stones songs. My taste leans toward Old Genesis, etc.

Thought for the day: We are not witnessing a war between the left and the right. Rather, we are witnessing a war between children (of all ages) and adults. And it's international. i.e. it isn't just the US.

Back in the 1920's, my grandfather had a flatbed truck he was paid to use to transport mexican workers to the Asparagus fields in southeast Washington state. Nobody had a problem with it. There were no government handouts to misappropriate. That was then. This is now. Eliminate the handouts...

BTWI also agree regarding protection of Human Rights. Problem with that one is that I think it means different things to different people. I'd like to see our government revert to it's original function. Protect country's borders, states from each other, constitutional freedom, etc.

That's interesting. You and I are on the same page regarding Iraq. I've said many times that it is said that the beginning of wisdom is fear of the Lord, but step two is understanding that the US is not a Norman Rockwell painting. Trust the government at your peril. But it's better than anarchy.

I see the US as 50 different "mostly sovereign" nations, kinda like how I see the EU. i.e. if I were you, I WOULD move there! I moved from Seattle to Kentucky 15 years ago for similar reasons. It changed my life in nothing but GOOD ways. Lots of them. I now live in almost total peace.👍

I think I understand where the divide is between us. I dumped the MSM back in 1997 and get my news from a myriad of print and internet sources ever since. After watching some MSM coverage of the ICE shooting in Minneapolis on YouTube, I now see where some of those lunatic opinions are spawned.,

Now I'm confused. What are they doing that's bad science? I believe that would be true of the global warming scare, the "boys can be girls" nonsense, mandating untested Covid Vaccinations, and that ridiculous food pyramid. So yeah, we both have educated ourselves enough to know it when we see it.

I like him because he's not a politician. I ignore everything he, and all politicians say, and focus on what he does. It's what makes him, IMO, the greatest president in my lifetime (I'm 72). Of course, opinions vary...obviously. I suspect you and I base our lives on different value systems.😎

Except I LOVE his behavior. I'm an independent. I consider Trump a RINO. He's the best republican ever literally because he's a Republican in name only. And that is a GOOD thing! He just had to join a party to win. And better to join the simp party than the crazy party.👍

I see all politicians as liars. But I also think Trump is the best president in my lifetime. He's getting real stuff done. The border, tariffs, Oil, Maduro. Heck, he's now asked congress to limit corporate ownership of multiple single family homes. I ignore what they say, and watch what they do.

Fortunately it was all recorded from multiple angles. It's pretty clear what happened. Note to self: When cops say stop and get out of the car, just do that. You can fight it later in court if you think you were wronged. But kids tend to act on impulse - leading to many winning the Darwin award.

I said the same thing about Biden when he was elected. I expected him to be out in six months. Turned out I was "technically" right, but I was off by three years. Watch old videos of Churchill. He looked to be in worse health during WWII than Trump is now.

It's definitely helping - long term. But in the short term it's gonna hurt - just like surgery. But the adults understand that. And this also shows why most true politicians did nothing and just give lip service. He KNOWS his solutions will hurt in the short run. "pay me now or pay me later".
