New Week, Same Old News
To my mind, the primary story continues to be the fall of the US empire and the rise of the BRICS+ alliance. The repercussions of the empire's death throes appear to be war and more war amid economic collapse. Seems to me, the possible (likely?) illegal Venezuelan war is a distraction from the rapidly approaching loss in Ukraine, the on going Gaza genocide and Zionist aggression in Syria and Lebanon, the economic misery of so many US citizens, and the revelations in Epstein files. I find it amazing how the people are fooled time after time...WMDs in Iraq seems the same lie as drugs in Venezuela...we are lied into war time after time.
Album of the Week 11-15-25
Submitted by joe shikspack on Sat, 11/15/2025 - 3:00pmAfternoon folks!
This week finishes off my collection of the American Folk Blues Festival recordings, I am pretty sure that's all of them that were made and commercially distributed. It's an excellent series that features quite an array of blues musicians. Also this week, from the diversity department is an interesting live album from Dave Alvin and the Guilty Men worth checking out.
Enjoy the tunes and have a great weekend!

Good morning, good people!
I hope all of you are in fine fettle, or have some plan to achieve that status.
It is pretty darn hot here for the upcoming week. A bit late in the year for 84 deg. highs, but so be it. Fall for you y'all, not so much here in East Texas.
