China-US summit

The delegation includes business leaders across a wide range of industries, including Tim Cook of Apple and Elon Musk of Tesla.

Admitting Defeat?

We clearly lost the wars in Vietnam and Afghanistan, and I would argue we've lost the Ukraine proxy war and the war with Iran. We should cut our losses and minimize the chaos, death, and destruction that has become the US trademark and make some sort of peace. However, our ego (and Zionists and MIC handlers) won't allow it. No, we're going to play out our role as the black knight, and go down swinging.

Afternoon folks!

We've got some great Chicago blues this week. Starting off we've got J.B. Hutto a fantastic slide guitarist, followed by a 2-disc compilation of Chicago blues featuring people like Jr. Wells and Buddy Guy, James Cotton, Otis Spann and many others. After that there's a live album from B.B. King at Cook County Jail and then we get a touch more modern with an album from harmonica player Mark Hummel. Next, it's some old-school Motown with an album from The Temptations and we finish off in the diversity department with some prog rock from Gentle Giant.

Enjoy the tunes and have a great weekend!

Good morning, good people!

Are any of you suffering from ceasefire-attacks-ceasefire whiplash? The treatment is to not read MSM headlines in rapid succession. A proven cure is to not read them at all.

Happy Friday everyone. Welcome to Friday Night Photos your once a week escape from the day to day insanity of the world we live in. Post any photos, memes, music or whatever else you find of interest that helps tune out the madness.

Another week of mostly sunny skies and temps on the 70s. We did get a little rain in the wee hours Tuesday morning. Gas went up another 10¢ this week to $5.79 a gal. Got my mail in ballot for the June primary the other day. 61 candidates running for governor . None of them worth my vote.

The San Diego Museum of Art in Balboa park is celebrating it's 100th anniversary this year. In it's honor the museum has an exhibit of artists renderings of the museum. Not part of the exhibit are my attempt to imitate their art.

Wagner Humphreys - Timeless

Last night I saw him at a comedy club in Burbank called Flappers. The last time I had set foot in a comedy club was 2008 when I entered a comedy contest in Pasadena. I did not bring enough people with me to win, but I had a nice set and the manager invited me to come back for the next contest night. Having been a wannabe comic from 1992 through 1998, I am paradoxically kinda bored with standup comedy and I did not expect Dore's show to be more than chuckles.

Morning

Another busy week. Last calf successfully hit the ground running. No more birthing worries and late night checks until next year. Keep a magnet on the refrigerator with the message "Old Farmers never die, they just go off to the funny farm." Fresh set of challenges daily keeps the mind and body active.
