You’ve been trapped in a chair by an aggressively cuddly kitten with me today, this is what you get

I’m blurry in the background behind Baba Gril, the baby we have collected to (hopefully) deliver to Grandpa and Grandma later this year. She’s a gray tabby with a leonine face and yellow eyes. I’m in the background, bearded and blurry.

The show I was watching has left the streaming service I subscribe to. Should I buy a blu-ray player and physical media out of spite?

The truth is, 7/8 and 7/4 are essentially the same thing. It’s just about notation. And maybe nominally about feel, some folks might say, but they’d be wrong.

Hm. I like Solsbury Hill by Peter Gabriel, but that’s more like 7/4 than 7/8. All You Need is Love, too, but I think that’s the same. I dunno. What’s yours?

I don’t have favorites! But I loved Cairo and Cape Town and Petra and Peru and Colombia. I think anywhere I’ve traveled where there hasn’t been time to go see anything is a place I haven’t liked. If it’s just a conference room in a hotel, why not do it remote?

This is so interesting because I’m not really a sauce guy. I love using some of them but I don’t really rely on any of them. I guess, because I want to play: 1. Soy 2. The “sauce” we make on sundays that’s a traditional meatballs and tomato sauce (Sicilian Nona recipe) 3. Whisk(e)y

Okay, first of all, I had a Batman t-shirt in HS and I loved him so much and I still appreciate the franchise but have also grown tired of the number of Batmans. So, anyway, it’s the fact that he’s miserable about being wealthy. Stop spending money on fancy gadgets and build housing, Bruce!
