If for some reason you just found me, and don’t know me already… I write about great #Christmas songs by small bands that deserve to be heard. I try not to rehash the old stuff you know, and really hate little drummer boy… and facism.

Data centers are receiving billions in state tax exemptions.

These centers, many owned by Big Tech giants, are driving up electric bills and sucking up huge amounts of water.

AI is boosting the stock portfolios of the richest Americans while everyone else pays the price.

it’s donut and pie season and I just want to remind the nation that there is no nutmeg in connecticut, that is a tropical plant. The state is called the nutmeg state because early yankee peddlers used chunks of wood carved to look like nutmeg to trick people into trading them for better goods

Mike Johnson: "If you're a young, pregnant American citizen women who shows up in an ER and you get treated and they pay the hospital less for treating you than some illegal rabble rouser who came in from some South American country to do us harm, that is wrong."

"On Christmas" by Al Nicol and Evelyne Brochu is both quick and wonderful. The orchestration is beautiful, lyrics are original, and clocks in at about 2:30. Bullseye.

What about tire costs? I heard that tires wear faster because of the heavier cars and greater torque. How many miles do you get per pair?

“.. we’re going to take care of our people,” Trump added. “There are some people that really don’t deserve to be taken care of. And we’ll take care of them in a different way.”
