I am incredibly happy with this mouse pad sold to me by Don Slepian

A mouse pad that has a photo of Don Slepian at a keyboard and it says, among other things: “Don Slepian’s Classical Music of the Future”

Thanks to Soundtoys for presenting the legendary Don Slepian. I loved his impish enthusiasm, his total freedom as an improviser, and his conviction that nothing will ever replace being together in a room. He also had golden nuggets of wisdom like, when there’s egg on your face, lick it off

Only a few days ago it was 80F which was great but also weird. Today we are back to normal autumn with my thermometer reading 39 this morning. I am so excited for ice skating season. BRING ON THE COLD

Jane Goodall was one of my heros. I will never read enough about her.

It’s almost open enrolment and the uncertainty about next year is causing me a little stress. My current plan will cost $1,847 more per month without the ACA subsidies? 😬

Also, orchestra tickets at Place des Arts were $65 Canadian including fees. Such a little price to see a legend.

I saw Daniel Lanois at a sold out show in Montreal last night and wow, if you ever get a chance to see him, go. A musician’s musician, still exploring. The set began and ended with an enveloping sonic vortex created by him and his trio and his longing studio assistant Wayne. Still reverberating.

Faster than light travel is possible… kinda. Distant galaxies are receding from us at superluminal speeds. How can that be, and how can we see them if they're flying away faster than the light they emit?

Even weirder: to them, *you*re* moving FTL!
