Afternoon folks!

This week we're starting off with a couple of sixties era blues albums, the first from harmonica player James Cotton which I think is his first recording fronting his own band, followed by one from guitarist Lowell Fulson. After that it's on to some serious r&b with an album from Otis Redding. Then we move to some more modern blues with an album from John Hammond backed up by Little Charlie and the Nightcats followed by an album from The Spencer Davis Group. We finish up with an album to mellow you out from Cat Stevens.

Enjoy the tunes and have a great weekend!

Good morning, good people!

I hope this post finds you all in fine fettle, managing your households as best as possible under the new economic stress caused by a stupid and needless war.

I am posting the Round Table that appears on Fridays with Judge Nap. Nowadays, what happened yesterday can flip on a dime from what occurs today, so I anticipate all of you will
be sharing news and current events as they happen.

That said, here is the status of major current events as of yesterday: (34 min)

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.

Wednesday I went to the San Diego Zoo Safari Park to check out the newly renovated elephant habitat that just reopened last week after being closed for 2+ years. I don't know how many millions the Zoo spent on the project, but it looks fantastic and the elephants seem to like it.

Morning - hope you find today's OT thought provoking.

farewell to this long-lived and loved community of friends and teachers who have contributed to so many facets of my personal growth and understanding. I’m sure I will continue to read and listen to the evening blues, as well as other essays, and continue to also be inspired by the photography, music and humour here. But for now I will enjoy a period of cosy hibernation. Cheers all

You cannot go by what they said, as Trump proved by ignoring his campaign promise to end regime change wars. Would either or both of them be bombing Iran for any reason? Or for Trump's purported reasons?

This poses the question of Who is in charge?

The Constitution and wall to wall media bloviation say POTUS is the Big Cheese, period.

I don't think so.

But I do not know anything for sure.
