Tim Greiving’s new book about John Williams is a tsunami of love for movie music that pours out of its +500 pages.

Also beware: Google Wonkspace. I signed up ($7.20/month) thinking it was cheaper than Zoom, and would allow me more than an hour in video interviews. Nope. I never could determine what I was paying for, and the only way I could quit was to block them from my bank account. Here's me trying:

Galt, Master Thrall of the Providers of Triskelion in the M24 Alpha star system, introduced the Collar of Obedience, stardate 3211.7 (The Gamesters of Triskelion, Star Trek, Season 2, 1968). But someone at LinkedIn is way ahead of him and the croaking Secretary of Health and Human Services.
