A song for 2021

The great Emperor Norton, of blessed memory...

... was just as delusional as Donald Trump, but at least he was harmless.
And, unlike Mr Trump's Wall, the bridge the Emperor ordered built now spans the Golden Gate.

Foxes and Fossils: Suite Judy Blue Eyes

Okay, this is live, and their first gig. I am impressed, it's not like this is an easy song.

Brian Wilson doing "Gonna Hustle You" (1963)

You Tube is full of gems.

Ylvis is in the room

The greatest rock song ever written about a bank

Somebody in the Trump Administration has a brain.

Commuting Mr Stone's sentence was clever. If he'd been pardoned, he could not invoke the Fifth in a related court case, because he couldn't be incriminating himself. Commutation does not carry that immunity, so he could refuse to answer future questions.

Naming a garment "tactical shorts" is stupid, but...

... having them available in size 6X is even stupider.

2030 Zulu (4:30 pm EDT): American astronauts to return to space.

Screw politics, coronavarus, and your dear Aunt Minnie, I'm gonna watch the launch of Demo-2.

Ah, well, weather didn't cooperate. Try, try again.

A subjective note about masks

In the local (central KY) Walmart this morning, it seemed to me that virtually no men were wearing masks (except the employees), while most of the women were. No doubt this would prove something profound if the sample pool were more diverse.
