Dear Zscaler. I hate you. You’re on the list. Further haterade as circumstances warrant.

I will admit the last 6 hours give me a bit of a hard-on.
Not proud of that. Won't defend it. But won't deny it.

Thank you.
4) It's driving me a little crazy the idea that the Democratic party has something it has to answer for when, in fact, the party undertook a totally unprecedented, wrenching, brutal, difficult effort to PUSH OUT THEIR OWN NOMINEE just a few months before election day!

Thank you.
This stupid gameshow host administration would potentially make for an amusing madhouse streaming series.
Really sucks that it's actually reality, though.
How do you manage to pack so many jackasses of many flavors into a single group?

RIP George Wendt... Vaguely had an inkling bad in the Superfans days I wanted to be a Chicagoan because of it.
Can't grow the walrus mustache, but fat, sassage-lovin', aviator sunglasses?
Here's to you, Norm/Bob/etc/George.
Stop me at 1.... maybe 1:30.

I think @congressmanraja.bsky.social reminds me of Paul Simon... and I think Paul Simon is virtually the perfect ideal of a Senator: Principled, smart, able to throw elbows but also a practical solutioner.
I'm glad he's running for #IL-SEN and absolutely back him.
Rock on, Raja!

My mind really cannot much more of the boggling the stupid gameshow host's regime delivers onto us.
Plainclothes agents. Trying to question elementary-aged kids. And lying that they had parents permission to do so.

Look, not all have, but I've made my peace with The Flame. I don't hate it. I don't sneer at anyone who likes it. I'm just saying, to me? It's the best 80s era ballad on Lap of Luxury.

Back to Budokan for Ain't That a Shame. Fats Domino cover - and supposedly, his favorite cover. The just perfect tightness of the band just shines here. How do you a cover - LIVE - and just stay so perfectly in synch?

We go to Rockford for this cut - check my history, but I think it was penned upon the birth from the Zander family?
Anyway - a throwback. A short catchy, banger. I like to think it has more meaning, but it's a great track.

Bouncy, fun song - you can certainly hear the ELO/Roy Wood.
