Thinking about history and presidents, I started this today.

Bunch o' 70s Love Songs

Who’s excited about the Facebook watch? Bueller?

There are wild speculations, including no LCD, a fan, and back only for battery connections.

FREE SFJAZZ High School All-Stars Big Band & Combo Winter Concert at 5pm PT/8pm ET today. Comprised of two ensembles - the Big Band, led by Paul Contos, and the Combo, led by Dann Zinn - the SFJAZZ High School All-Stars is pre-professional training program for current Bay Area high school age jazz musicians. In a typical year, the All-Stars rehearse and perform throughout the school year at the SFJAZZ Center, receive mentorship and clinics with leading jazz professionals, record a studio album, and appear at music festivals and competitions. This year however, the All-Stars have rehearsed in distanced sections or via video conferencing in order to keep all members safe and healthy. This virtual performance is the result of individual members working at the Center, at home, and online to create this beautiful musical collage. SETLIST "Pistachio" (comp. Drew Zaremba) "Imagine My Frustration" (comp. Billy Strayhorn, Gerald Wilson; arr. John Clayton) "Castle" (comp. Aidan Pratte) "Sleep With the Sun, Wake With the Moon" (comp. Daiki Nakajima)

Cause we were in the Santa Cruz mountains today and someone was raving about the barely alive KPIG which lead to a Spotify playlist they created and the reference up North...

If your lifelong dream is to eat pink, candy-flavored Mac ‘n Cheese, now is your chance. https://candykraftmacandcheese.com/Home/EntryForm

Any chance there are easier options or at least sillier options?

Haven't thought about Silence of the Lambs in a while.

So good. Bukowski kicking a Stallone ass is always welcome. Best coupled with the related book.

RIP. Was Screech the one whose penis size Howard Stern was obsessed with?

For what it's worth, I don't know how Maher, relatively benign faults though he has (though liked or disliked), remotely ranks on the danger/batshit crazy areas Weinstein and Heying often hit, especially outside their specialities (though I guess their specialities since Evergreen have been what?..."free speech", "identity politics", "gender", "popular culture", and everything else?) Maybe they're mutating though as this is the first time I've seen them go three minutes straight without spiraling out to kookyland, as you mentioned. They really are smart Jordan Petersons and that's not a compliment. But yeah, Maher sounds especially out of his element here. Not sure from the info, if this episode was caused by a few recent popular articles, but here's one - https://nymag.com/intelligencer/article/coronavirus-lab-escape-theory.html

I'm ready for my close-up, Mr. DeMille.

Don't forget Queen Hippolyta

How did I never know about Eaze.com?

Nice white vinyl

The other big release this week... https://m.dpreview.com/reviews/fujifilm-gfx-100s-initial-review https://jonasraskphotography.com/2021/01/27/fujifilm-gfx100s-gf80mm-f1-7-first-look-more-than-full-frame/

Is there an over/under on how many Jeff will purchase by EOD?

Optimistic compared to John Waters' Baltimore.

I think it's fair to say you'll get a wide range of opinions on Zu speakers, but I still love my Zu Gloss Prismatique Orange Souls. Hardly listen to Rock or Metal though. Due to a few reasons other than sonic, I may eventually switch to KEFs, but I'm a fan (especially with vinyl).

Looks good. Let us know.
