They finally found a decent resolution video of this for YouTube. RIP Alan Rickman and Sharleen Spiteri I might have thought of you in some private moments, if you know what I mean?

This goes straight to 11 in the first second of the song. A worthy addition to the rap/rock crossover pantheon? Ice-T and David Gilmour -- "Comfortably Numb"

New Cure! 🤩

New wine from old barrels?

Lot of bad old South Africa memories rehashed over the past week. Johnny was one of the unequivocal good ones.

Sure I've posted this before but still pretty much my theme tune.

Yes that's more or less exactly how it was but without the hair or handsomeness.

"Power User"

Recently bricked my M2 MacBook Air by the simple expedient of drunkenly spilling bourbon into the keyboard. Luckily I had AppleCare coverage and just told them it suddenly stopped working and they were like whatever just send it back and get an M3, which I did. It has 24 GB of RAM and gotta say, it's snappy. Both kids are still on iPhone 13s and will get an upgrade to 16s. I like my 15 Pro Max just fine so I'll probably stand pat.

Sorry Steve. It's time for the other team's anthem now.

(Not even remotely close anymore to) Teenage Fan Club.

Substitute "old man" and "in the 80s" and yeah that's accurate.

The last Beta Band concert before they split up. It'll be alright etc.

Feeling very 1986 tonight, for good or ill.

Apple Music gave me a nudge today about an Eno EP reissue. Not sure what the deal is but this song is on it and it reminded me to listen to one of my favorite guitar solos ever another 20 times.
