After posting that, I discovered animations they had done in 2015 for some of their classic songs. They’re great! I really like the YYZ one.

I'm a music fan and not a lyrics fan. But I've always enjoyed the lyrics to their song, Trees. Of course, the music had to be there for me to enjoy the lyrics.

Lyrics -- not a problem with YYZ of course. O0
You know I always found it odd that Elton John's lyricist posed with the band like he was part of it. I mean, his contribution was great, but is the photographer part of the band, too?

I have no issue with that as he was a super integral part of Elton John's music.

Likewise, Robert Hunter’s lyrics took the Dead’s songs to a higher level.

To be clear .... I think quite highly about all things Elton John. It's the opposite with The Grateful Dead.

Here is an amazing video of NileRed making a purple gold ring. Gotta say my stomach hurt when started working on the fresh gold bar to start the process...

Don’t take this as support for the Jan 6 people — not at all — but I find this John Strand guy very interesting to listen to

Overcharging in order to get a plea deal is a HUGE problem (in general, not just this case) and I'm not sure how to solve it. I'm thinking there should be no plea deals.

Wow, this is the first time I was asked to ‘sign in to confirm (I’m) not a bot’ to play the clip above, although there was no way to sign in. Just a Learn More button that did nothing.
Boo.
Edit: if I keep tapping, it plays.

I have never got that. I get pop up ads blocking me from getting to where I want to go.

Though for some reason while playing her .... the ads don't seem to get played and I don't have to click anything to get back to her.

Lately with Lex's podcasts .... there is an ad about every 4 minutes and you do have to respond to get back to him. But they seem to go away after 30, 40 minutes into his interview.
