IMHO: Very much worth 8:30 minutes of your time.
Many of you will recall this song and it's unique sound. Aside from the lyric, the sound gave and gives me goosebumps.
An amazing studio video story of the c…
Hi @DrVenture ETAL Some of the below fell out of my brain cells recall unit with the name Lou Reed, and yes, I enjoyed some of his music. The below is from an AI request. I trust the info is accurate.
Everyone here will fully agree, without doub…
Hi @Sven He wants to impress anyone who follows him and MOSTLY himself. + It/this is another means of distraction and misdirection.

Hi @Old_Joe Geez, the interconnected worlds we discover, eh? Your report is most interesting. Although the military wasn't my choice (Vietnam era); I, as you, were fortunate to not be 'harms way' and had great benefit from our knowledge and experie…
Hi @howaya Thank you. An excellent question.
Yes, there were numerous tests at the Bikini Atoll, which is 225 miles from my work location. 'Course, I did have to believe that the DOD stated there was not any work hazard at the KWAJ. Over the years…
@hank I'm not an Apple user, but is the system (laptop?) set for 'auto update' for the IOS or do you need to manually check for system program(s) updates?
So, the other..... 'He' likely doesn't understand the the Minuteman III ICMB is NOT nuclear; but MAY be loaded with a nuclear warhead. It IS NOT powered by nuclear, but with solid propellant. I wonder if Pistol Pete (DOD cowboy) is now aware of this…
@hank I'll add this from Malwarebytes (anti-virus program recommended by Chip, here at MFO. We actively run this program on laptops and our phones.

Hi @hank
Clicking on the link in the email pulled up an account listed under the email in question along with a blank password field.
Clicking on a link from an unsolicited mail is a 'no-no' at this house.

@DrVenture ET AL Here's an excellent live concert (free, Youtube, about 2 hours) with Tina Turner, Amsterdam, 1996. She moved like the wind, and was 56 at this concert. And the voice, YOW ! It will keep your full attention. The music and stagin…
@DrVenture 'Wicked Game'............back in the day when the production folks offered some very good music videos on MTV, the original video fully provides for the essence of the lyric.
@Mark Thank you for the Woody Guthrie link. I need to pass t…
Ha !!! I didn't count the number of times I cursed and gave him the big finger during that bullshit program. I suspect CBS and all of the entanglements caused them to 'air' such a shit show. What were they expecting ???
Hi @DrVenture Nice....Give Me Shelter. I've found, too; quite a few excellent mixes of cover songs. When a song title runs through the brain I will many times search for 'cover' songs.
MUSIC, the universal language................
@hank I'm 50/50 for instrumentation 'the character' of the mix; as well as the lyric. Some songs weight more in one direction. Some songs for me a 'road song' for driving upon the highway, volume set …
Hi @Observant1 In the early 70's, I was the only fella in the area who had high end hi-fi/stereo systems and the knowledge of equipment types and full setup. I became involved with many in quality equipment purchases and then the setup assistance. I…
I suspect that one's reading and involvement with all things at MFO can provide a full mental stimulant to support that side of brain health. The physical side of brain health can arrive from so many other aspects of an individuals choice, long term…
I posted two replies about 9:50 am, EST. The 'time stamp' for the messages read '6:11 AM.' And this post did not move to the top of this list for this subject. Things are still clunky.
@Derf et al
College football, and to the 'FUN' side; check the link below. Some official State of Michigan maps in 1978/1979 had entries for 'two' fictious 'towns' in Ohio related to U-M and Ohio football. The Wiki link (first in the list) will pro…
Hi @Derf . I'm a MSU fan first from educational/geographic connection. But, I'll favor U-M against other teams. And Wisconsin. The lost of coaching staff over the years and the 'damn' portal has whacked them. I always cheered for them, too; and coul…

Yes, but more of everyone else, too; versus the June protest. But, the majority was boomers. We boomers have 'more' of the been there and done that experiences; and therefore have better reference points against when 'things' are becoming broken wit…
Hi @larryB Great to read. Our Michigan location was the same as the June rally (except 4 hours this time). Many more folks, all peaceful. One local police car traveled the nearby street a few times. More young ones, and non-white this time; whic…
We'll be at a same location as previous and will be watching for changes in crowd size this time. The bugger this time is the potential for rain, although with mild temps. The previous rally was excellent, pleasant weather. We'll also be watching th…

Hi @Old_Joe Thank you for the 'Post' post.
For so many of us here, who grew up and worked through a generally high standard of ethics at many levels and in many areas; 'HE' is so destructive. An overwhelmingly sad example of a 'human'.
DHS has a 'Facebook page'. Some the language for 'hiring' is:
Your nation needs you to step into the breach. For our country, for our culture, for our way of life. Will you answer the call?
Hi @hank Flight Simulator had a program portion that was flying WWI aircraft in a war setting. That was also very simple and fun. It helped me learn about 'stall speeds' when moving too slow and tight turn banking. Flight Simulator was a challenge.…
