Facing the music and other questions...

I  have a theory about the music that we consider our favorites - the music that brings back the most memories...  
 
 
I know that my musical tastes now are 180 degrees from where I was 55 years ago, but that's a discussion for a different day. I'm talking about memories and familiarity here. 
I fall asleep to music on the TV every night - I prefer the 60's channel to the rest for the simple reason that I know all of the shit they're gonna play. There's nothing new and different that I might wanna concentrate on - I can drift away to music that reminds me of the girl I dated in 8th grade - that kinda stuff. Chime in on your ideas on this. PS - I never owned a Beatles or a Stones album and I ain't gonna start now...

This should start showing up on TV soon...

The dream is over for passengers who'd signed up for Life at Sea Cruises' inaugural three-year voyage. Life at Sea Cruises had promised passengers of its inaugural three-year voyage the trip of a lifetime — they were supposed to set sail on Nov. 30, travelling to 382 ports across 140 countries over the span of three years.
Some say they have nowhere to return to, having sold or rented out their homes in anticipation of the round-the-world voyage, as well as getting rid of their possessions. 
 

It' pretty funny - they still have their website up and operational. How big a scam was this? https://www.lifeatseacruises.com/

Forbes did an evaluation of Girl Scout's cookie selling operations and determined that the organization brings in nearly $ 800,000,000.00 a year selling them. Part of the reason they are as successful as they are? Aside from the cost of manufacturing and distributing the cookies, they have no other overhead or costs related to the sales.

America's real estate industry is undergoing a radical transformation that could change how we buy and sell homes forever.
A jury in Missouri last month found the National Association of Realtors (NAR) had artificially raised commissions by enabling brokers to collude. That verdict could set a national precedent - and experts estimate it may slash Realtors' commission by up to 30 percent.
Lower fees would be good news for home sellers and buyers, but what does the ruling mean for the NAR's 1.6 million members? Among them are single moms, veterans and aspiring young professionals. One report estimates as many as 80 percent now stand to lose their jobs.

$ 10.00 a pop in the men's room at the Big Top Bar on Clifton Avenue

  1. Real Estate agents were already in the toilet with interest rates where they are. Now this. It's going to be a not very Merry Christmas for them.
