yeah, they're in first place in the AL West, and kind of on a run, despite their usual practice of going into September on a tear, then collapsing. So fingers crossed!

Settle down.

It took me a while to find my way to "Mr. Moonlight" but it's awesome. A kind of r&b that was all about high drama and delightfully cheesy organ. And isn't it churlish to complain about an album with "What You're Doing," "Every Little Thing," "No Reply" and "I'm A Loser"? (spoiler alert: Yes, it is)

I hate it when a brilliant group
of artists takes a break from changing world culture to be merely charming and delightful. They had literally weeks to write and produce their fourth album of the year, and some of that included tour breaks. Why isn’t it BETTER?! (I really love B4S)

Always a chance but we don't have a publisher in the Netherlands yet, so who knows?

Jamie, it’s time for bed. Tomorrow’s a school day.

They love to invent richly illustrated phony stories about bruce. There were two that showed up a month or so ago which featured phony photos of B cradling sobbing people to his chest. One was his daughter, supposedly upset about Patti’s illness, the other was Bob Dylan who was just sad, I guess?

Did you JUST have Covid? I hope it wasn't too bad. I had another run through the Covid spin cycle in May, but it was a shadow of the version that knocked me for a loop in the fall of '23.

You saw Mike’s BBs and got Covid out of the deal? The jokes write themselves. (Tho Mike would sue to claim co-authorship)
