Go UW Huskies! They're riled up because they feel disrespected. We shall see on Monday.

Nice. Reminds me of my glory days in the music business. As a Billboard sales reporter, I used to be at shows 3 or 4 nights a week sometimes. & I got paid to go! These days it's a real struggle for me to go at all. I still try. Anyway, nice pictures!

Taylor Swift is Barbie.

Happy 80th birthday to Keith Richards today

They were 3rd band opening for Terd Nugent & Cheap Trick. They were mind blowing & Bon Scott may have been 1 of the best front men ever if he had lived th...

i guess i don't see the connection between chinese real estate holders and democratic officials. Seattle is run by Democrats, some radical. At the same time the real estate guys are running amok. We have a city council member (leaving soon, thank God) who is so far left she backed having protestors...

The influence of China on the US economy and government is of course a hot topic. The specific issues range widely from cybercrime to cybersecurity to industrial espionage to direct and indirect narcotics and narcotic precursor smuggling to ignoring international laws on things like intellectual pr...

I don't know if the Republican posturing on Ukraine is politics as usual ("just negotiations") or the kind of anarchy/chaos they have recently specialized in just because they can and just to attack Biden at all costs. All i know is that the result is likely to be terrible (theoretically they can s...

This is good stuff!

(…Thanks y’all (Live). Futurebirds & Carl Broemel, if the link to Apple Music doesn’t work)

Need to check this out. Carl Broemel is one of my favorite musicians. Crazy talented.

Pink Floyd is boooring Definitely agree if you're talking about the post Waters output. David Glimour is a great guitar player & pretty good singer but a lousy songwriter. I've found it good to step away once in awhile & come back to the classic Floyd records. The Wall is good once a year. Animals ...

I don't know if there's a way to truly comprehend the magnitude of Ohtani's contract, but let's give it a try. ICYMI, the contract is for $700 Million over 10 years, or $70 Million/year. So that's One Million Three Hundred Forty Thousand Dollars (and some change) EVERY WEEK for 10 years, or 520 wee...

One episode so far & I’m in. I’ll watch just about anything with Emma Stone and love Fielder’s cringe-inducing existence tui5vl13Gqg https://www.theringer.com/tv/2023/11/13/23959489/the-curse-showtime-review-nathan-fielder-emma-stone-hgtv Watching episode 3, just struck me that Barkhad Abdi, the “I...

Minutemen - Double Nickels on the Dime

ha. I very recently turned 55.

Happy birthday!

Taking it up one more notch, after a six-year hiatus, Pollard also released a...

I was thinking that it would be cool if DBT got a few opening dates. It would be a good match.

As a Longhorn, I'm happy with the (deserved) inclusion of Texas. I can't argue that the best four teams are in, but I do think the committee screwed up. 1) Not including FSU. Undefeated with a similar resume as the rest of the field. Come on. Have the stones to leave out the SEC. I get that they ar...

Not sure if this goes here or in the politics thread, lol, but "the committee" sure has a lot of work to do and not much time to do it. Random thought from a distant observer: In the be careful what you wish for department, if TX gets in and neither GA nor AL does, Texas's welcome to the SEC next y...

A beautiful headline. https://www.rollingstone.com/politics/politics-news/henry-kissinger-war-criminal-dead-1234804748/ Indeed. But also stunning in comparison to pretty much every other headline ever written in the MSM. This one ought to break through the "noise." Fuck that motherfucker. I hope th...

4 Stones Tix in Houston secured. AARP code is Flash321 if you need it. Prices are high, but not totally insane. I was on the fence for this tour but in the end said fuck all, it's the Rolling Stones. I wasn't going to travel for this tour but they're playing Seattle so I have to go. There goes the ...

The Rolling Stones May 15. Got decent seats via AARP haha.

Would like to hit one of these but likely that I won't be camped out for the presale. Maybe Santa Clara.

Lumen Field has great sound for a stadium. I'm going to try for Lucky Dip tickets.

No joke, tour is sponsored (in part) by AARP

At least it's not a nursing home chain!
