Thanks Maga. Can't even buy a ratty old used music book from the UK because tariffs and they won't ship to the USA etc.

Are we great again yet?

More times than I can count:

"Are you going to (name of convention)?"

"I might have but the hotel block sold out before I knew I could get the days off".

(Don't get me wrong. Great problem for a con. Yay! Attendance and full booking! 'Tis the life of an entertainer, and I chose this life.) :D

Well, the booking form has been sent. Now we wait. Meanwhile, we finish writing the funding campaign. This thing is happening. Finally.

Who wants to sing along?

I'm not sure I ever expected to see those last two next to each other in a sub menu.

Someday we'll just store that info in microchip and hold our palm up to the DJ deck to download everything.

In Europe, I could take a guess at who's listening. ;D

When you have tracks on Apple Music & Spotify, they'll tell you each week how many times someone listened to your track(s) and where they're from, among other things. This always tickles me, as it's rare someone finds it.

This week, someone in Vancouver listened to my song twice.

Thank you! :D

Trying to take a negative and turn it into a positive. This is hard. If I succeed, it will be magic.

Tonight was a German variation on the theme: Ground beef (hockfleisch) Jäger Art (hunter style) with Käse Spätzle and Rotkohl (red cabbage.) Peach Pie a la mode for dessert. 😃

I so enjoy having the time to cook a meal at home. Tonight was a variation on Gibelotte, a staple of our childhood dinners. Usually it was ground beef with mushrooms and green peppers, or ground beef with stewed tomatoes, almost always served over mashed potato.

It's distressing that we have so many shootings in this country that we don't even hear about all of them. Glad to read it wasn't related to a con.

Now I'm curious - out of the hundreds of mass shootings every year, which one was the straw that broke the camel-sona's back?

Yay. Jimmy Kimmel is apparently un-cancelled and didn't have to apologise. The boycotts and cancellations worked, right?

So now everyone is going to re-subscribe? Just in time for the price-hike?

Also... "ill-timed comments"? He's a current events satirist. When is the right time?

That's it. After talking about it for eight years, I'm doing it. I don't know how I'll fully pay for it, but dang it, I'm doing it.

But what could it be?
