  One of our world's incredibly talented rock masters has kicked off this mortal coil and that would be Dave Mason. Mr Mason was several years older than myself but I followed his music from back in the late sixties. Mason was Traffic although Steve Winwood would disagree. Mason DID write a fair number of Traffic hits and that takes away nothing from Winwood. Clash of artist egos and I've seen that before any number of times. Probably my favorite Mason work was 'Alone Together' and I still listen to the album in it's entirety. Mr Mason worked with the giants of the music industry way back when and Mason's pedigree is nothing to sneeze at. Jimi Hendrix, Clapton, Mick Fleetwood's band, Delaney and Bonnie, the list goes on and there are plenty of accolades to spread over a lifetime of fine rock tunes and sonatas of various appeal and experimentation. Dang fine artist no doubt. Mr Mason lived in my Nevada and I did not know that. Doesn't matter I would have ...

  Besides all the braindead bluster and confused muddling already staining the dank waters of information that squirts from the White House, trumpf insists that "there will be no ceasefire extension with Iran" for the simply reason that 10 minutes later trumpf will insist that an "extension of the ceasefire has been graciously granted at the request of Pakistan." Yes my friends that banging noise coming from the White House would be sticky pants vance banging his head on the big red dot he's glued to the inside of his office door. You see sticky pants was all set to head for Pakistan where he can stall for time with the Pakistan diplomats while spending much need quiet time with the widow Kirk that's out of the public eye and the gad danged paparazzi that seem to pop up almost any dang where old sticky pants tries to unzip his sticky pants and get jiggy with the widow Kirk. Yeah yeah we all know that vance is "happily married" to the Hindu woman an...

  Yankees? Red Sox? Penguins? Devils? Spurs? Red Wings? Raiders? Jets? Manchester? Nuggets? Yes friends it's grown dang hard to pick a team to follow when just about all of the major sports franchises are in playoff mode. You can show your love for a particular sports franchise by heading to your local bookie's shop and place those bets. The bookies need your help to offset their loses after having to pay out big time when their precious pick 'em point spread over/under and other bookie crap misfires and at that moment you can almost hear the screech of monies being paid out. By the gambling concerns. You see gambling in America is an addiction and there is help available but you'll not get any of that help at a "sports book." Nope. As you can plainly see I've got nothing ... trumpf is insane and his antics are repeated almost daily and not to worry ... trumpf will pull off some new and unexpected fucknut outrage and another day in America pretty much roll...

  President Barack Obama and the Mayor of New York City, Zohran Mamdani, were holding a preschool session with preschool children at a free preschool program for 3 and 4 year olds in the South Bronx. The preschool is Learning Through Play Pre-K Center. For 3 and 4 year olds, Presidents ex, and Mayors of New York incumbent. Songs sang were the ever so popular 'Wheels on the Bus' and some ditty about Korean demons which the children knew right off the starting note. President Obama seemed to know the Korean pop song but Mr Mayor Mamdani didn't have a clue. It's okay Mr Mayor, I didn't have a clue either. Korean pop demon songs? For preschool children? What kind of dealy is that? I don't know. What is our world coming to ...  ? Anyway, the event was pretty dang cool by anyone's standards. Way back in the day, the days of "the Cold War, duck and cover, and nuclear fallout shelters in backyards, we never had songs about Korean demon hunters or Korean anythin...

  The Strait of Hormuz is open. Nope, it's closed. Wait ... it's open again. Nope, closed. Back and forth and anyway the wind blows. Such is a day in the life of the Strait of Hormuz. Ocean going vessels are churning up the waters of the Strait of Hormuz not knowing if they can sail or otherwise just sit there are get targeted by the Iranians ... then the U.S. ... then back to the Iranians again ... It's probably a really bad time for maritime captains and the vessels they captain. Do we sail or do we not ... a question fit for putting to Hamlet. That's a shakespearean reference by the way. Yes I've read a number of works by Shakespeare and no I would not recommend Shakespeare period. Dang hard reading no doubt. Shakespeare was popular reading back in his day but today? Nah ... I'll pass. I did ace the exam we were given on Macbeth. Nailed it. The tales of Hamlet, Macbeth, and any number of Shakespearean works highlight the really fucked up nature of European mo...

If you would like to swing on a star, you're going to need some serious PPE. PPE would be 'personal protective equipment ' and anyone that has worked in a clinical laboratory or hospital knows that right off. So if you'd care to 'swing on a star', well you'll most likely want to do that on a "brown dwarf" as the surface temperature of a "brown dwarf" is about the same as a hot cup of coffee. Not really all that bad ... however, I'm not certain where one might find a "brown dwarf" star anywhere close to home. Our home of course. The ones you'd more than likely want to avoid would be your "blue giant" stars that can reach as hot as 100,000 K and I do believe that's to read 100,000 degrees kelvin. So 'kelvin' (K) is the base unit of thermodynamic temperature in the International System of Units (SI), widely used in science. It's a measuring scale starting at absolute zero (0 K or -273.15 C), which ...
