Malaga Virgen - Brand X is an exceptional band you may may be surprised at how Phil Collins drums for them.  Excellent.

Sometimes - so dry but still funny

Maybe - some thinking on covering "Hurt" - it's shelved for now

"Hurt" - new release by Pol Arida and he's made a unique job of it

Don't Worry - a remarkable long-term study by Harvard which has been running for seventy-five years and this is about some conclusions from it.  There is a link to the original article and it's more interesting than you may expect.

Exit Deutschland - you don't need to know German and this is one funny stunt which succeeded famously in making neo NAZIs look like complete fools.  Highly amusing and so clever how they did it.

Fundamentals - some red-blooded American wisdom ... from Joe Pesci ... about the drive-thru

Obama - on the abysmal pace Obama has kept with the START reductions in nuclear forces in U.S. and Russia

How to Defeat - another Exit Deutschland stunt to make neo NAZIs look like idiots.  Check out the technique as there is no street confrontation with the NAZIs, only people laughing at them.  Well done.  Funny stuff.

El Capitan - five stars here at the Rockhouse.  Zero troubles and excellent improvements to Safari and Notes, among others.


There are some deep disturbances right now in the Force and not only for me.  It's not my purpose to visit that on readers and it may seem insensitive in leaving various real life things out of it but I'm highly selective in what is suitable for this sideshow of a blog and it must be a relief, an amusement, an interest or even an outrage for whomever may come here, even when the person may be in the midst of some deep things.


I heard of Outrageous Public Spectacle from WEBN 102.7 in Cincinnati, home of Jelly Pudding radio FM, where you could hear Michael Xanadu.  That theme must be continued and we will keep bringing it to you.  Even though it may not seem it, we are keenly aware a whole lot of people are screwed in a whole lot of different ways.  What I do here is hopefully toward getting unscrewed, at least for a while.


The above is why "Hurt" is shelved for now.  There is too much reality and it's the darkest kind of blues.  This is not the time for it.  The time is for completing "The End of the World in Fort Worth" with what's called "Capture" on the Ride the Dragon podcast but the words will change the next time for the continuity for people coming from the vista of sci-fi strangeness in Fort Worth but here is the musical salvation from that.

Much better to focus on something which does have a salvation rather than on things which may not.  In all things, the music and light are the salvation and the path to anything beyond but sometimes that can be damn hard to reach.  For what I see, that makes it all the important for me to bring it.
