One of my resolutions for 2026 is to listen to even more groovy mellow music from the 1970s. Our best forecasters are predicting at least a 500% increase in Steely Dan consumption

I mentioned this to my sister at Christmas dinner and I got the song so wrong, it’s baffling. The actual song was 311’s first single from 1993, “Do You Right.” If anyone can guess how I got those wires crossed, let me know.
About 30 years ago my sister called the college radio station at Brown and sang this song's chorus to the DJ who answered because that was the easiest way to identify an unfamiliar song back then

But I can see you
Your bronze helm shining in the sun
And there's Gilgamesh with scale armor on, baby
And I can tell you and Enkidu will still be strong
After the boys of Sumer have gone
Your bronze helm shining in the sun
And there's Gilgamesh with scale armor on, baby
And I can tell you and Enkidu will still be strong
After the boys of Sumer have gone

Hitman keeps doing these promotions that aren’t really for me but I love that they’re there for somebody.

For some reason this Who concert was shot on 35mm in 1978, so there is stunningly high quality videos we can easily use to rank the band in terms of effectiveness
It obviously goes John > Roger > Keith. Pete was also there.

As one does, I'll click on a Breaking Bad clip when Youtube offers it. Today I'm finding it very amusing that Marie serves Jesse his coffee in a bland white mug that just says DEA on the side.

Found myself wondering what that last line in "Mad World" means, found the answer on Archive from this unformatted blog post by Curt Smith in 2010. It is neither a satisfying nor a disappointing answer

Hello, Bluesky. I finally got around to adding a picture and name to my account. I don't see myself posting much but maybe now I won't be too ashamed to like and reply.
