So excited that Bill Fox is back with a new record of songs after 13 years. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dMBpgpWo27Q

I'm definitely a charter member of the Paul Foglino fan club. They have come so far from Princeton Review.

Five Chinese Brothers and Surreal McCoys were my real favorites. Still friends to this day. Love them. I also got to see Laura Cantrell, Joan Osborne, Kate Jacobs. So many great shows there.

That's because they don't play it safe

I was a a Rodeo Bar regular back then, even though I was in high school. But I had to see the World Famous Blue Jays and Simon and the Bar Sinisters as much as possible I guess.

Enjoying this season of Reacher. It's always a nice escape. And interested in the Neagley spin off. Also watching The Pitt.

"The Santa Fe City Fire Department found no signs of a possible carbon monoxide leak or poisoning, the document said. If there was carbon monoxide at the scene, it could have vented out of the home through the open front door before responders arrived." "There were no obvious signs of death. Their deaths were "suspicious enough in nature to require a thorough search and investigation" due to all of the "circumstances surrounding" the scene, according to the search warrant affidavit."

"But Mr. Vongerichten and Mr. Benno are too exuberantly talented to leave it at that. And together, they’ve transformed a fine-dining punch list into an alchemically rich menu that goes to great lengths to seduce. Both crowd-pleasing and daring, it features food that amuses you, delights you, inspires you to explore corners of your appetite you didn’t know you had. Four Twenty Five is not a restaurant that forces you out of your comfort zone, but it doesn’t leave you stranded there, either, staring into your Chardonnay." It's a floor wax AND a dessert topping.

I'm so sorry for your loss. May he live forever in the hearts of those fortunate enough to love him and may his memory be a blessing.

Just saw this @Steve R. Please tell them hello for me. Amy and I think of them often.

When

It was a pretty racy school! They also taught Joan Didion.

Yeah. They were assigning his books in my high school. I don't think I read a whole one of them. Was not my jam. I read A Confederacy of Dunces around that time and loved it.

I didn't suggest that it had to be anything for you. I never said anything about my personal feelings about it. But, I acknowledge you were right then and you are still right about how you felt.

They did not age well at all.

Yeah he wasn't allowed to be an unchecked factotum.

Honestlly...I douthat is true about Stephens. Harhar. Differently disgusting. There's no shortage of garbagebag people over there, Davie Brooks comes to mind. They love to garbage pick.

She and brett....two human trashbags full of unworthy entitlement.
