Right on

Corky, The Who and The Clash are my all time faves. I saw The Who in 82, and the Clash in 83 and 84. It's cool you got to see The Who with Moon.

I love Jeff Beck. He is my favorite lead guitarist to come out of the Yardbirds.

It's funny: I bought tickets for my friends and I to see Opal in 1987 in San Diego. Kendra Smith was their vocalist & bassist. The thing is, when we got to the show, we found out Kendra Smith had left the band and was replaced by Hope Sandoval. That band became Mazzy Star on that tour.

Yeah, Corky. She rules

The next two years will be fraught with high weirdness.

Halloween by the Dream Syndicate

I know a couple of people who dabble in crypto, but it all seems like an impending disaster to me.

I guess it's actually LZB: Linienzugbeeinflussung

"LGB safety system failed." Do any of the technical experts here know what that means?

"Believe nothing,
no matter where you read it,
or who said it,
no matter if I have said it,
unless it agrees with your own reason and your own common sense."

This quote is often attributed to the Buddha, but it is really a very loose translation of sentiments in the Kalama Sutta. Still, it makes sense.

And he'll hand the keys to Vance? Hmmm.....

The first book on Buddhism I ever read was Zen Mind, Beginner's Mind by Shunryu Suzuki. I bought it at random in 1990 at a bookstore in Pacific Beach not too far from a record store where I worked at the time. I am a terrible practitioner, but what little has stuck has often kept me going.

It's funny:

I always thought if I made it into my sixties, the negative memories would fade away, if for no other reason than an assumed accrual of wisdom. Alas, it hasn't been so. Things like Donner's Najaho prayer are helpful.

#5 Good one. Nice footage behind it.

Got an inspiring quote for the day, Oneironaut?

Lunch with an old friend today.

I like this one. What do y'all got this Oct 26th?

Ha! You give my boys too much credit, Nixon!

There are some entertaining games on at the bar right now. I am relatively content. Coldest beer in town.

Oh, man! For a moment there, I thought the Nooner was back!

Ah. Well, it seems like soccer is a semi-fresh start as a professional sport in this country. I live right on the border, so it's always been been big in a small way here. Now it's big in a medium way. I've never seen my bar more packed than when Mexico was playing in the FIFA tournament. It was as a lot of fun.

Oh, Trump?
