I don't think I've shared this audio track on Spotify before. I really enjoyed this project a few years ago. Arise Beloved by Rosephanye Powell. It's the third most listened to Stay at Home Choir recording on Spotify. open.spotify.com/track/401obS...

I finally uploaded a video I recorded in February. Is it faster or cheaper to take Amtrak Acela, a premium "highspeed" intercity train, rather than commuter trains and the subway? The answer to the questions are in the video. youtu.be/RmNYs6XJyaY?...

What did I do last week? I almost made it to the stage for a concert with an expected 3000 person audience before the concert was canceled 90 minutes before the start for an "extraordinary medical incident" and we had to immediately evacuate the site. Went drinking instead.
