Open Thread - Rants, Muses, Books & Music (and Some Cooking Too).
Submitted by Mark from Queens on Tue, 03/14/2017 - 6:00amIt's good to see you. Come on in, leave your shoes in the hallway, we've got fire on the stove preparing lunch for later. In the meantime, browse the bookshelves and plunk down on the sofa with one, or pick out some tunes from the music library or come in to the kitchen to help with the cooking. Our special blend of tea is steeping and will be right up.

Sunday Album Open Thread: The Incredible Jazz Guitar of Wes Montgomery
Submitted by enhydra lutris on Sun, 03/12/2017 - 2:00pmSome Albums really stood out for one reason or another, but never seemed to get the recognition they deserved. There are others that I just like to play every once in a while.

Fantasy: Camouflage Cover Tracks Of Incognito Spy
Margaret Alice
Today I read a most fascinating
account of exciting conspiracy
theories – enough to feed the
imagination for hours to come:
US programs dealt with lasers,
time travel, computer chips,
antigravity systems, magnified
light lenses and genetic
engineering – each term can
be looked up on the Internet
and all this research makes me
feel like a rocket scientist –
just the right camouflage
to cover the tracks of an
incognito spy!

Thank you Oscar. Now, having had a sore throat for a couple of days, and not wanting to go outside into the cold unless I have to, here are a couple of shots of the great indoors.
