Not sure if this is the best place to continue this discussion....but I love love love this woman and her sarcasm. There's another clip I saw on FB where she goes on factually to show why he doesn't deserve it. But even this part is great.

Always loved her, beautiful woman!! For me, Looking For Mr. Goodbar and Baby Boom may be my faves. RIP......

I just upgraded my mom's mini-PC to Win 11 today, with Win 10 ending support this week. You can pay $30 for one more year of security updates, which was my original plan. But then you NEED to create an MS account, and use it to login to your machine. That was a no-go for my tech-scared mom. Upgrade went fine, though. Machine is a bit slower, but it'll hold for a while. I had a little fun with Ubuntu. I got a Celeron-based Chromebox for $25 from a used Electronics store in Maine a few weeks ago. I was able to download & install a new BIOS for it, upped memory and SDD drive ($50 total), and loaded Ubuntu on it. Still a tiny bit slow, so TBD if I'll keep it like that. It was just fun to play with the innards and BIOS of a computer again.....

^^ Hoping things combust internally for him and the administration by 2026 Nobel voting.... But for now, moar HDD stuph

Fourier Transform Speakers....unique, be interesting to hear..... Video about it:

Holy shitballs, that's like conspiracy theory level of mods! Ric Shultz at EVS does some pretty crazy things at times, but I will say I have always heard improvements with his work. But yeah, what the actual fuck was that modder thinking?!

Another great one gone....RIP John Lodge. What a voice (EDIT: along with Justin)! https://www.the-independent.com/arts-entertainment/music/news/john-lodge-moody-blues-justin-hayward-b2843232.html

I like the DAC discussed in the P-F article! Looks like it'll be about $12K USD though......

RIP to Susan Lucas, a.k.a. Soo Catwoman. Her image was pasted on SO many memories from my early days, she was a punk icon in the UK. I saw her image so many times, and loved her style. She even did (tried to?) some singing; I liked the pics more than the song....

I remember there was some of this here in times past. But I like that there's a whole FB group dedicated to this! "Things with faces"

RIP Jane Goodall....one of the more amazing humans in this world.... https://www.npr.org/2025/10/01/459238450/jane-goodall-primatologist-dead-91

Happy Birthday Wayne!!

Moving aside the near-comic video, I kind of like the group singing. Reminds me a bit of Waulking music like Talitha MacKenzie, and Ashley MacIsaac's Sleepy Maggie

Posted on FB, had an awesome Music and Audio day yesterday. A vendor demo visit to a local dealer, met new people, listened to a near-$500K system, and reminisced with some old coots like myself who loved the Boston music scene in the 70's and 80's. Re-connected with an industry guy who I hadn't seen in maybe 25 years....got a hug of support when we shared our spouses' cancer history. His wife is still living, and I stressed to him to be ever-vigilant and monitor as much as possible; I'd rather scare people a bit and have them advocate than to keep losing lives thinking "I'm 100% cured." I just hope she never has to go back to treatments. But was a wonderful time. I won a raffle item of a McIntosh-sponsored Johnny Cash audiophile LP set. From the original Sun Master Tapes, 45rpm 180Gram vinyl, yada yada. Looking forward to trying it out! On the live music scene, last night an Audio Buddy and I saw Hiromi on her Sonicwonder tour. Just a stunning and engaging show! I last saw her in 2013, and both times were just fantastic. The venue was lovely as well....and an Angel's Envy neat in an "adult sippy cup" (plastic cup with plastic cover to help reduce spills) topped the eve off well.

That IS awesome....but please stay safe!! I hope your voice will be part of a healthy turnaround!

Moar funz...

Happy Birthday Jim! Enjoy a fine wine, scotch, cocktail....or all the above!

Holy shitballs....I HAD heard of these guys but totally forgot about them until a FB friend posted about them being at Riotfest.

Sarah McLachlan - Better Broken. I have been a fan since since her fist album, but at times she has been very dramatic for my taste; I think she has great passion but at times it seems TOO much. But anyone who supports animals so much is fine by me! Her latest is a very good listen; she brings the passion still, and this one is almost all great. Lovely lady, lovely listen.

Not QUITE as good as some of her other "documentaries," but still fun!

Very Happy Birthday!!

Hmmmm....it may be a far out opinion, but I THINK they may be fans of MBV..... 🤣

Primus is so fun and funky....but alas, I cannot hear a single song by them without trying to fit the South Park lyrics into the melody 🤣

New Chameleons, Arctic Moon. Some similarity to their older work, but much is new and different. Lyrically I love it, and the music fits each song. Lead singer Vox (used to be Mark Burgess) puts some soul and emotion into the words, representing relationships, new-found love but also the scary nature of the modern world (last song for example is called Saviors Are A Dangerous Thing). But it's certainly an acquired taste. I'm loving it so far.....
