Thank you everyone. It was a great day. My sister (the Alaskan one, not the Californian one) was coincidentally in from out of town, so I pretty much spent the day with her -- she took me to Perfect Pour where I got my (currently) favourite whisky -- the West Virginian Smooth Ambler Contradiction (although I was hoping for 3 bottles, they only had the one), so I got a few other things. Then I had a delicious samosa made with curried potatoes and a superb chicken vindaloo. Now I'm winding down with an episode of Knucks's radio show. AND NO SHITTING MYSELF! So all in all, a good day.

Thanks, everyone!

Dig! It's a really good documentary.

Yeah, that one's almost a siren/wail. I was completely taken aback the first time I heard it. It's so perfectly repetitive, I thought it was a recording or something.

I love egg noodles.

"some kind of conniption fit" -- around 3am? I call that the "midnight nutties". Most cats do that.

Happy birthday! (party favour noise)

You gotta admit, “Kurt Vile” is an hilarious stage name, though.

Happy birthday, Vicki! (party favour noise) You're a good person, and we need more good people here!

I was getting tired of all the Star Wars and Star Trek discussion in a science fiction group, so I made this post and inadvertently ended up alternately arguing with this one guy, and having fun at his expense. It wasn't meant to be trolling -- but I was getting really sick of the passive aggressive, "I'm right" atittude when it was convenient for him, but not being able to see things the other way. My favourite moment was insulting him to his face without him realizing it. Reminds me of me when I was on Head-Fi.

Our heroine, Camille, is still producing interesting music. This one puts me in mind of some of Kate Bush's more mature moments:

I may be a basshead, but I'm not a dumb-bass, so I will await reviews and/or measurements. I doubt I'm interested either way, I have neither a HD600 nor a HD650 in my collection.

No worries. It's impossible to tell these days. Petty was fake news...until it wasn't.

Yeah, several of my sisters coworkers' homes and friends' businesses were destroyed and she's been posting charity after charity including many animal both domestic and wild...and then she posts pics of her hike in sunny, blue-skied Washington, and I say, "good for her!" Because I want her away from that shit. Also, air-filter/fan trick to take much of the ash out of the air. It's on my Facebook page, but let me know if you need a link...although it's as simple as it sounds.

Fake news! I blame Trump and the Russkies.

Shrimp with herbs and especially garlic shrimp with herbs/garlic/old bay

It’s probably to make sure it stays fine.

<3 so much.

Still this, but taking a break with the new Gary Numan, which rocks hard.
