To my astonishment, I just discovered that Richard Adams credits me with a tune arrangement (MIDDLEBURY) in The Cyber Hymnal™! hymntime.com/tch/htm/c/o/...
I very much doubt that I did more than use Noteworthy Composer to transcribe an existing hymnal arrangement into a MIDI file. I could be wrong…

Maybe Trump wants Canada + Greenland is to make USA the biggest country of all: bigger is better & bigger + better is great. If we had Canada & Greenland, Putin could have his lost empire & we'd STILL be the biggest! Maybe we could even let him have Alaska for $7 million or whatever we paid for it.

I searched Google for "new pope" and the first thing I got was an Amazon ad.

When someone (in this case it was Laura Loomer) refers to "the dangerous CoViD vaccine, which is currently killing millions of people", leaving aside the political and medical issues, what if any statistical basis does such a description rest on? What studies however misunderstood underlie this?

Woke up ~4, sat up, nose began 2 drip blood. Not the worst gusher ever but enuf to make it more than just a need to pee. So now I have to sit up until I'm confident I've got it stanched. And I wonder if AI has realized that "bsky" could just mean Western Appalachian Bull. Nosebleeds do this 2 me.

A few days ago in the Hymn Society Facebook group I asked what the initials found after the meter numbers in the 1963 Sgaw Karen Baptist hymnal, which I would like to enter in the Hymnary.org database but can't owing to lack of a Sgaw keyboard. Now I have the answer...

Starting in less than an hr, I'll take a wk + 3 hrs off from needless activity on Meta. I'll check FB & Msgr once daily to see anything I really need to see, but to the extent possible I'll respond elsewhere. I hardly ever do Instagram or the other apps, so they can be ignored for a week no sweat.

»P P McGuinness, wrote that BlueSky a "delicate biosphere … where reasonably mainstream opinions [anger] the moderators, and are soft-censored as 'intolerance'… not really information so much as a curation of comforting progressive axioms"«
