Holy Orangeface, Batman!
Looks like I have some lectures today, thanks for making these available.
I canceled ESPN (owned by Disney). As a big Washington Caps fan it was a sacrifice. But a necessary one given the circumstances.
I just deleted every link I had to CBS news.

Never thought I'd see the day...

It could be "black propaganda", put out by Trumps henchmen to cause a backlash. Be careful.
Considering the state of the world right now, we need a moment to chill.

This has only been up on YT for about a month. It may very well be the best live Beatles tape I've come across, both in quality of audio and in terms of performance.

Is it possible to push against a mighty foe and win? That is what members of the Modoc tried to determine in the winter of 1872 as Indian Bureau agents tried to force their relocation. Tune in this week as I dive into the Modoc War.
I really wonder if Jack Kennedy and Ike aren't looking down on us with utter contempt. I can't blame them if they are.
Them's last recording with Van Morrison. Recorded in 1966, Van left shortly thereafter. Initially, only released in Ireland and Holland, the Dutch EP came with scrumptious liner notes.

It never changes, but given the current circumstances, it hits the nail on the head.
Absolutely. I think there is a very conscious effort to dumb Americans down right now. There is a creeping coup going on.
Sometimes one just needs to turn it off.
Going to get out my Beatles albums and shut Donnie boy off for a couple of days
I personally think Hong Kong, since the Chinese took it back in 1997, is the model. Every year, the screws were tightened. You wake up one morning to find freedom gone.
Not to mention Holiday In Waikiki.
I'm sorry to hear its been a bad patch for you. I can only say your books and Yale lectures have taught me quite a bit about our country's history, for which I am quite grateful.
Hard to sleep when the country is dying.
They should pick a former Dr Who. It's the only character who has been portrayed by that many actors...
I wonder how John Quincy Adams kept his diary together, considering all the traveling in Europe he did while being our best diplomat.
A band from Cornwall The Onyx released You've Gotta Be With Me in 1968. This is excellent Hollies style power pop.
