It’s so important to love the journey part. Work on getting better but enjoy the process. Your music appreciation and hearing things you didn’t notice before while listening to music is also life enriching.

Not recommending (buying the booze part) it, but if you have wine or beer they interact with you anyway to verify your age. I had a 10 minute conversation with the self checkout guy last time I went to Costco, when he checked my ID, it turned out we grew up near each other. Great chat!
NL playoffs are going to be lit. Phil’s, Brewers, Mets, Dodgers and the new all in Padres going at each other. Good luck to everybody above you will all need it.
What a tear jerker. Ignoring or not acknowledging race issues in the sports world of the 60’s and 70’s would be like pretending it didn’t impact music, art and politics of the same era. You can’t. Nor should we ignore it now either. Excellent as always and I can’t wait for season 2!
Agree. I think for some they think they were saving the children or that is the lie that brought them in. I know a few people in the wellness industry that got sucked into Q and it was heartbreaking. The actual Save The Children foundation is a great thing, what Q does is horrible.
Call me crazy but I agree. Q brought people in over child sex trafficking which led to vaccination skepticism and other crazy stuff. While I wish their energy was about enacting real change to protect children their anger over the issue is a righteous one to them.
As a husband on the you can only have cereal for dinner twice a week rule let’s remember moderation people, moderation. What’s the rule on chicken waffles, anyone? No syrup = dinner? Savory crepes?
I loved the episodes on JR Richard and the 84 Padres. Keep these coming and thank you.
Thank god he doesn’t have a dog, bad enough he abuses Americans.
America needs his too, he would be a great POTUS but it seems like America can’t have nice things. Happy for Minnesota however.
That’s the way to do it. It really does help.
I had to watch it twice to make he didn’t say Danny… wtf?
Only they want freedom of speech, not anybody else.
If everyone is a child of god you don’t get to choose which ones are not including poor children, POC, Gay, Bi and Trans. Why is this so difficult for some to understand? I know, I know rhetorical question..
Due to the rampant homophobia in the 80’s not sure a metal singer going on about how he would blow someone like a hurricane would fly. But yes, poetically works much better.
Well the cool kids like the Danny Kirwan years… 😊 Actually everything from the first blues album to Mirage is worth exploring. Fascinating history and drama with that band before the Nicks/Buckinham era. .
He is THE definition of punchable face.
Morning and happy Juneteenth. Need coffee #2 now because one ain’t enough.
Is this a rhetorical question?
Why would they say that? Turin is one of the most beautiful cities in the world. There are here because of their contracts, they all probably think the Club World Cup is as stupid as I do and would rather be on the beach in the south of France with girlfriends or wives. Moron.
I so needed this today, thank you.
Current mood.
Well said, thank you.
Born in the late 60’s and the music was better, promoting peace, love and standing up for free speech and civil rights was exactly the right thing to do. But… the free love and drug part didn’t make for great parenting for those that had kids. They got it mostly right.
Crying in my coffee. Wow.. thanks for finding and posting that.
Feel a little better after seeing such high turnout yesterday from my slight lean red suburb. This dog dad for the win.
Good signs and good turnout today. I will just say this suburb is the farthest thing from what the MSM would say would be the profile of people who protest. Gave me hope. #nokings
I just do Social Media on my iPad and limit my access to it. While I do use my phone to capture photos and videos that I will sometimes share on SM I took all SM apps off my phone so when I’m out in the world I am actually in it. Also gives me time to reflect if they are actually worth posting.
And now, your moment of zen. See you guys Saturday!
The correct answer is Remain In Light but we can also be friends if you say Fear Of Music. 😊
Good Vibrations is the Sistine Chapel of pop music. Surf’s Up is the Pietà by Michelangelo. When Brian was on he was brilliant. Ex: Caroline No, God Only Knows, wouldn’t It Be Nice, Wind Chimes…
When have they ever been held accountable for their hypocrisy? Don’t want to pay for head start and school lunch then allow young women to have a choice on when they can start a family…I could go on and on.
I hope this goes viral. So much respect for the woman that filmed it and helped her.
Sadly the cruelty is the point, enough people voted for exactly that. The question is are there more of them than ever before due to MSM and Social Media?
That’s how you stand up to bullies. Lived in SF when he was the mayor. Is he the special Dem unicorn we all want? No, but he has a way of bouncing back from set backs and showing effective and competent leadership. Let’s not count him out yet.
Love Jarvis, can’t wait to listen to this. Thank you.
The administration of the arrogant, apathetic and ignorant. It’s not like we didn’t warn people.
Hey guys, been laying low for mental health but fired up and ready to help out. Coffee!
Sadly there were a lot voters that like him because he talks and thinks like they do. Dems need to change the narrative to that the very rich are the elitists and not those that choose to have an education or try to learn something.
Love it, let’s bring some gumbo and Jazz to Vatican City!
Hilarious. Don’t show it to Trump, he will think it’s real if he sees it and I am sure he already thinks it’s awesome that Popes get Super Bowl numbers with their names.
I totally agree but I keep wishing for someone to standup to him. The Vatican has more wealth in one room of their museum than Trump will ever hope to acquire. I know it’s also a political entity at his point and again I would never want to take away from the good that Pope Francisco stood for.
I know my anger at Trump is making me irrational but I am a little upset at Vatican security for not refusing him entry for not following the dress code. Yes it might have caused an international shit show and take away from Pope Francis but the Vatican would have won public support on that one.
I’m not even catholic and I am outraged. Of course the hypocrisy of the religious right doesn’t surprise me. I was told I was a child of god but not allowed to have free lunch at school so excuse me if I think there are all full of bs.
Go to a concert without having to look around people holding up their phones or iPads!
Throw in some Manny’s Pale Ale and I’m in!
Tell everybody that is no longer here that I love them. Buy Apple stock. Buy every classic Jazz and classic Rock vinyl pressing that were in good shape that were dirt cheap back then due to the popularity of CD’s. Shave my stupid goatee.
It’s nice he gave you a lifetime discount on Finasteride and minoxidil but the rest of us are fucked.
All had to do was wear a black suit and tie as requested. The silence from the religious right on this is deafening. Obama would have been impeached by the GOP house for doing that.
Some photos from when I visited Santa Maria Maggiore Basilica in Rome. Highly recommend for art lovers if you wish to visit the tomb of Bernini amongst other treasures there. RIP Papa Francesco. #popefrancis #roma
It’s so cruel to family members of people who suffer from opioid addiction that he keeps using them as a political prop with no intention of doing anything about it. But bullies only punch down on those when they are at the lowest. I detest bullies.
This is from when I took a friend battling cancer to Santa Croce in Florence. Aside from the monuments to Michelangelo, Galileo and Machiavelli (to name a few) it’s also a special place to contemplate history and spirituality. Have a great weekend everyone.
We need more Cory Booker’s in US politics. Always like him, even more so now.
Way to go Portland. Love you.
I worry about that also, those are good paying jobs that give people meaning in that they are helping others. Hopefully they can relocate somewhere where their lives can have meaning. Sucks for those older in rural areas that have to stay.
Right on. We need more veterans realizing that the current GOP doesn’t care about them. Dems need to message this, no gray area here. You care about veterans or you don’t. Same with the police force after the J6 pardons, the GOP doesn’t care!
Walking my dog with her best friend, a drink and laughter with friends after dog walk and then coming home to play the guitar. At my age I can’t do drinks, laughter and making music with friends/band members all day/night but I will happily take the few minutes and hours of joy where I can.
Gracious post but you will win the Prem with weeks to spare. As a neutral the Pool has been a joy to watch, no shame in losing out to Man City and Real Madrid the last few years. The future also looks bright if you can let go of some older player salaries.
We believe
Love Lightnin’ and his whole vibe and style that was unique to him.
Hmmm… you could you know maybe pass some guns laws so you fell more safe? I know rhetorical question…
💙
Accurate. Married to an Irish Italian woman.
His assist and the way he made the defender fall down with his dribble for the first goal was even more amazing and the goal was fantastic! He is special.
Thank you.
Masterpiece, use to play keys on the title track in a pub cover band. Have a pink label Island Records vinyl copy.
My kingdom for some gummies and a Pliney!
Back at ya!
Gen X man here, I know we are the worst but this one would hold him so you could kick him twice.
Spring forward Mondays are brutal, hang in there!
Shai seems like a lock for MVP. Thunder have to prove it in post season, but I wouldn’t bet against them.
His court vision and decision making is unreal.
Agree but it’s hard when you literally give someone money to improve their lives and they still hate you because… what? Pronouns, DEI? What other people do with their lives? Anyway gave you a follow.
Dems to find a way to explain that you either support the police which protect us, our troops and vets or you don’t. This is why they don’t….
Especially after having wrapped the car around a telephone pole after picking up your kids from school. You knew exactly who he was. Why?
Hate to think what I would have become without all the strong and intelligent women in my life who have inspired me. Have a great weekend.
Love the cat poster! Great work and nice to see you here.
Donated a lot of personal iconic guitars for charity auction also. He is one of the good guys.
Not all of us. You can grow up male, straight and white but if you are poor and others think you might be gay you will not be spared from the bullying and abuse. I was subjected to it and because of that I will fight for all women, LGBT and POC to not be abused like I was and be treated as equal.
SF born and raised here. I won’t give Gavin a pass on a lot of things but due to his age at the time and that she wasn’t also a whack job at the time they were together I will let that one go. If he was interested in her now well yah… he would be dead to me.
Agree, don’t worry no stuffies were harmed for this photo.
You bet! Thanks for the follow.
Same. Thank you.
💙 💙
I love her.
Looks like the only thing that got shot up was her face.
His mismanagement of Covid caused 15% unemployment. Yet voters were like we want more of that please. Unbelievable.
Hello, happy protest day also for those that can go.
Midnight Blue is a perfect album. It’s one of those I can’t go too long without hearing. It’s almost like a reset button for me when everything gets to be too much. How about some love for Wynton Kelly or Sonny Clark if not done so already?
Following Britney, thanks!
When has the GOP every suffered for their hypocrisy?Aside from an odd election cycle that lasted maybe two years?
Damn it, to think we could have had a normal person in the White House that likes good music and dogs. Also a football coach! Please stay in politics we need you!
Hockey Skates is one of the all time great songs about meeting up with an ex that wants to keep tearing you down. “ I’m so tried of playing defense, I don’t even have Hockey Skates” youtu.be/tXEg-GNZgUk?...
There could be an opportunity for blue state women owned tourist themed activities. Instead of going to Italy for cooking classes and wine tasting go to Napa or Portland. For dudes, how about liberal bros beer pub tours on the east coast instead of Prague or Munich? just an idea.
Coop! Harvey’s Wallbangers!
I wish more people could see this. I guess MAGA has to feel the pain directly to get it.
Let Luka eat!
Sucks that I want my boyhood team to lose 162 games this year.
In My Tribe is a great album by them, need to revisit that one today. Thanks for this.
