That's just the way it is...

It was just yesterday afternoon in Rome that the Pope was tooling around the Vatican in the Popemobile and he goes home,  has dinner and dies. It is truly amazing how fast death can come at a person when it wants to. We should all be aware of this every day of our lives and live our lives to the fullest we can experience. Bon voyage, Francis - you were an enlightening man...

Jackson Browne actually wrote the Eagles hit 'Take it Easy'.
Didja ever wonder what that girl mighta looked like in the song? You know:
Well, I'm a standing on a corner
In Winslow, Arizona
And such a fine sight to see
It's a girl, my Lord, in a flatbed
Ford slowin' down to take a look at me
Come on, baby, don't say maybe
I gotta know if your sweet love is
Gonna save me
We may lose and we may win though
We will never be here again
So open up, I'm climbin' in
So take it easy
I always wondered - until now.  I think I finally found her...

Thousands of LGBTQ+ activists marched in London this weekend, chanting in support of both “trans rights” and “Palestine” as part of the same struggle — with one speaker hailing the Palestinian cause as “the strongest shining light” in a shared fight for “liberation.”

I've come to believe that there are people out there - especially in the media - who get up ever morning and try to figure out what they can say during the day that will be the stupidest fuckin thing ever uttered. 
And I also believe there are people out their that are getting paid to do exactly that. What a friggin' world, huh?

  1. It only TAKES a minute! In fact, I suspect what you're seeing is viewers like me- we check in several times a day, look at the latest post, and beat it.

  8. I'm usually here a little longer than a couple minutes, but it's because there are so many sites to visit in a day. Also I'll come back later to see if anything has changed.

  9. What is bounce rate? 6k+ views per day, that's more than some other sites I visit. Think of it like having 6k friends.

  11. Three things:
    1. The Pope was a virulent communist and I shall not miss him. Let us hope they don't elect somebody just like him.
    2. Can't be the Winslow Girl, it's not a flatbed Ford
    3. I have a music site on Youtube: people either stay for the duration of a song, or 15 seconds, whichever comes first. Don't feel bad.

  12. I think the red-haired artist in film "Cast Away" drove a Ford F-150.

    Most people just scroll through the pictures, you didn't actually believe people are here to read your magat ramblings?

  14. Screw the Pope, Marjorie Taylor Greene got it right "Today there were major shifts in global leaderships. Evil is being defeated by the hand of God." No place for that church in our great country!

  15. Jackson Browne got stuck on the lyrics and Glen Frey came up with "It's a girl, my Lord, in a flatbed Ford slowin' down to take a look at me".

    BTW, if anyone hasn't seen it, A History of the Eagles is a terrific documentary.

  17. Now, now, the Guardian is British and has to maintain a distinctive accent. They've been told that American women find British men's accents sexy and they're scrabbling frantically about to answer the question: "Which ones?" They might come up with things like "I say old boy, Whimbrell was pulled back onto the ship in an untrousered condition" or "Righto, let's dance unhosieried"...I'm for encouraging them. They're funny. And if they do things that really are sexy, like showing up on time for dates and cleaning up after themselves, their accents undoubtedly will become endearing.

  19. I visit once a day in the evening and spend anywhere from 15 minutes up to a half hour or more.
    Usually more - especially when I go back to the previous day to check for new comments.
