The morning jam; another of those that showed up while I was living in Minneapolis in late ‘82 and ‘83 and attending radio/television broadcast school at Brown Institute. Goes well with Freddie here.

I like what she’s done with this Donavan tune. And right as the coyotes start their little concert here. How fitting.

#EveryGoodBoyDeservesFavourListen to the tide slowly turning
Wash all our heartaches away
We're part of the fire that is burning
And from the ashes we can build another dayBut I'm frightened for your children
That the life that we are living is in vain
And the sunshine we've been waiting for
Will turn to rain -

Another great (although the battle scenes are violent so you’re warned if you haven’t seen it) anti-war film was 1987’s “Hamburger Hill” and the brilliant Phillip Glass composed the score; he captured the sheer futility of those 10 days in Vietnam’s Ashau Valley in May of 1969.

I believe some Uriah Heep is in order here on deck. I deemed it so.

I wondered that as well. Then again, I guess I should kinda expect it from a draft dodging shit bird who actually said “I always wanted to get the Purple Heart” and has smiled and given a “thumbs up” at graves of Marines buried in Arlington’s Section 60.

A balmy 63 degrees on deck and I’ll take it after one helluva long day, half of it in meetings and on the road to get to said meetings; the photo doesn’t do it justice but there’s a red sky out there.

I know NPR has had stories about what the treasonous FOTUS said at his Nebraska “Nuremberg rally” last night.

The view down my town road late this morning; it’s been nearly 2 1/2 years since Jagger and I would go for walks on this road and autumn tends to hit a little harder as his gold coat would tend to blend in with the changing fall color. He is so missed around here.

Kinda badass. And UW Madison involved. That makes it even more so.
#NobelPrize“The IceCube Neutrino Observatory is a research facility located at the South Pole in Antarctica, according to its website, and the University of Wisconsin–Madison is its lead institution.
Neutrinos are tiny cosmic particles with a mind-bogglingly small mass. Yet they are everywhere: they spew from stars like the sun and trillions zip through our bodies every second.” - Associated Press

And The Walls Came Down

But the walls came down
I don't think there are any Russians
And there ain't no Yanks

Jagger and Allie about this time in 2017. I’d love to get another Retriever and actually, I could see this scene returning with a new Golden and Nubs. It’s Gizmo and his reaction I’m still a just little leery of.

Kinda ironic there’s Ronald Reagan at the beginning.

Hey, look! It’s a traitorous orange shit bird! Aside from there being millions of people in both cities who aren’t all Dems, anyone wanna tell this ginormous fuckstick there are U.S. military installations involved such as a major U.S. Marine Corps base at San Diego? I’m sure MAGAts will just say “Oh, now. He was joking.” Bullshit.

After a couple decades of relative obscurity, Nixon’s name has been called on frequently over the last 10 years. Donald Trump’s corruption and indifference to the laws of our government have inevitably drawn the comparison to “Tricky Dick” Nixon over and over again.
And it’s clearly gotten under the skin of the only president in history to be impeached twice. - Adam Kinzingerhttps://www.adamkinzinger.com/p/rewriting-history-wont-change-the
