Common Sense and Plain Talk

Open Thread Image.jpg

Seems common sense isn't common, nor is plain talk. No, censorship and suppression are par for the course today. We don't have free speech, we have acceptable and allowed speech, wrapped in lies and propaganda. No wonder most people are so unaware of US malevolence.

Album of the Week 12-9-23

Afternoon folks!

This week we start out with some really fun New Orleans funk from the Dirty Dozen Brass Band, followed by an album by Howlin' Wolf's horn player for many years, Eddie Shaw. After that we've got some r&b from The Persuaders, some folks will recognize the title cut because of The Pretenders cover of it. After that there's blues rock from Elvin Bishop with a double live album, followed by an album of jazz-blues-rock fusion from Harvey Mandel and another fusion album from John Mayall. After that, in the diversity department we've got a Los Lobos album and a 60's pop-psychedelic album from The Lemon Pipers.

Have a great weekend and enjoy!

Friday Night Photos Zoomania Edition

Happy Friday everyone. I hope everybody is doing well. Post any photos, memes, or music you like.

It's been a week of beautiful weather. Sunny blue skies and temps in the 70s.
On a less positive note our local utility company, SDG&E (San Diego Gouge and Extract) has decided their profit margin isn't large enough. Now they want to add a surcharge based on your annual income on top of their already exorbitant utility rates.  All us rate payers are keeping our fingers crossed that the proposed increase will be denied by the PUC.

I had not been to the zoo since August so I decided it was time for a visit and spent a few hours there Tuesday morning.
