This is for the “hurr durr what about global warming?” crowd. We know who you are even if you don’t.

I’ve been building an old fashioned stereo stack based on Onkyo components, which was the brand i had back last century. I lucked into an amp, tape deck and tuner for $10 each at ARC and grabbed a Sony 5 disk carousel for not too much, but today I found an Onkyo 6 disk CD carousel at the ReStore for $20. Looks cool, only thing I’m missing now is a graphical equalizer (and a turntable, I suppose) but prices for the EQ are such that this piece is going to cost more than all the rest combined. Decisions, decisions…

It’s not about the vaccine. We’re still rolling the generic dice and the new ones aren’t always weaker. Of course, a lot of low hanging fruit is already dead, so there’s that.

This week I applied for a passport because i had the pictures, the birth certificate and the application in my hand all at the same time. Took two tries: The first time i went in, i presented them the title to my car. Yes, the person the next day heard the story of the day before.
Today I paid a couple of bills that have been sitting on my counter for months because I finally remembered to tell the cashier “as a matter of fact, I do want some stamps” combined with going to the credit union and getting some “starter checks”. I love those things, I don’t have do deal with stress of having a whole box of them I can’t find and when they’re gone it’s ok.
Now I’m going to go over to the dentist and see if i can get something expensive done since my severance just arrived today and i supposedly have coverage until the end of the month.
small victories.

RIP Peter Schickele
P.D.Q. Bach - Beethoven Symphony No. 5 Sportscast (New Horizons in Music Appreciation)
Professor Peter Schickele, announcer Robert Dennis, color commentator The New York Mills Philharmonic Heiliger Dankgesang, conductor
Being the center of P. D. Q. Bach studies in the United States -indeed, in the world- is not the University of Southern North Dakota at Hoople’s only claim to fame. History was made by this writer when U. of S.N.D. at H’s radio station broadcast this presentation of the first movement of Beethoven’s Fifth Symphony (the “Famous”) in a program that boldly opened up dramatic new vistas in the volatile, dynamic, ever-changing field of high school Music Appreciation.
Huge amounts of time and money have been spent on this area of human endeavor, both for young people and adults, since everybody knows that you can’t really be enjoying something unless you can tell why you’re enjoying it. But the effectiveness of reading or hearing a lengthy explanation of what’s happening in a piece of music is vitiated by your usually forgetting most of what you have read or heard by the time you get around to hearing the music about which you were reading or hearing. It occurred to this writer that a feather might be taken from the cap of sporting events, or rather the broadcasting of sporting events, whose distant audiences are never asked to rely on their memories for more than a few seconds at a time to stem the encroaching tide of ignorance that threatens to engulf our concert halls. In short, tell it like it is while it is. That this approach is indeed effective is anested to by many teachers, who tell me that they use this presentation of the Fifth as an introduction to Beethoven or to the symphony or to sonata form or to phonograph records.
Although not a work by P.D.Q. Bach or even in any way relevant to his oeuvre, we take great pride in presenting this landmark in the history of pedagogical desperation.

THey stopped calling it global warming not because the planet isn’t warming but it has different effects in different places. Anyone who wants to say “oh, what happened to global warming?” when it’s cold forgets that 2023 was the hottest year on record in a decade when that keeps happening.
