Kids maybe, retirees no!

I wished him a happy Thursday yesterday on LinkedIn. Isn't that what the cool kids are using these days?

Working through my FLAC catalog and doing a little hunt and peck for some of my favourites. (currently in A ) Anoushka Shankar & Karsh Kale - Breathing Under Water Antibalas Afrobeat Orchestra - Who is this America? Archive - Londinium Asian Dub Foundation - Community Music

That's great. Thanks. Not surprisingly there's also a Retrospective I set also, but that came and went before I knew and seems difficult to find. I only have Apple Music and Spotify services at the moment, but someone on Spotify created a playlist with tracks from both sets - Johann Johannsson Retrospective... There's also the Last and First Men film (2 LP set)

Oh, interesting (that that exists). By sheer coincidence, I was listening to this yesterday (an EP of Alice Sara Ott playing his music on piano): https://tidal.com/album/470578411

She sure is, Key-Lime Pie Girl and I have been together since then. Good memory! Rachel remembers you as well and was part of the push for me reaching out to Renato et al. and coming back here. Takes good care of me. We actually got married recently as she wanted her Dad to walk her down the aisle (he has Parkinsons).

Last I remember you had recently separated from your wife, and had just met 'Keylime Pie'. Is Keylime Pie Mommy, or has another dessert stolen your heart?

Haha, It's been a trip Steve! You really need to figure out your own shit when you have little ones to look after. They both look much more like Mom, but they each have half of my brain. I've come to realize that I'm basically a shaman and a hunter trapped in the same body. Jack/Jackson (my 9yo, soon to be 10) is the shaman. He's super deep and sensitive, always reading or drawing, has spoken like an adult since he was 5 and has most of them wrapped around his finger. Most of the girls in his class and probably a few of the boys have crushes on him and he has absolutely no idea, lol. We're currently reading together while I have my morning coffee. Westley/West (my 4yo) is most definately the hunter. He's like a force of nature, full of personality, turn your back for a second and he's gone, always climbing the highest thing he can find but rarely gets hurt. Lies compulsively, but is *terrible* at it. Lately has been bringing home school library books without taking them out properly and tells us that his friends are giving them to him. They certainly keep us on our toes.

OK, just gloss over the whole "I'm a Dad now" thing?

I really tried to understand Steve, no success. But I laughed hard.

Digesting the Johann Johannsson Retrospective II set... ... so tonight...

Happy birthday, Vincent!

They're back from baseball, so stopping for now but might be back on later. Edit: Probably not, kinda hit a wall. Sleeping soon I think.

I'm up if anyone wants to come hang https://www.twitch.tv/philodox42

Happy Birthday!

God we are all getting old. Jarvis is starting to make me think of Kipling's "a rag and a bone and a hank of hair."

No, that's not what I mean. Your little orange haired gnome can stuff it.

Trying to print the One Piece (Dungeons & Devil Fruits) rules for that D&D game I'm running for my Son's birthday and it crapped out half way through the players handbook. So I'll probably try to order some of the 3rd party toner... or just sneak print it at work.

What in the ever loving hell was that?

Wait, what? Canada? Don't you mean the 51st state? 😝

Inkjet printing? How very 2005! I print everything on a 3D printer now. Gay porn on a 3D printer is especially mind altering.

Not available in Canada... need one of them fancy VPNs

Haha, I'm bad with names to begin with, but I certainly remember him. Leprechaun is on point for sure.

Don't feel bad Jay, most of us just have a mental image of a leprechaun in our heads when we think of Dinny. Happy Birthday Mothersfucker!
