		<description>Wow. Well, I&#039;ve never been to a Zep concert but, tonight, I got the next best thing. No stairway to heaven, though but, what an awesome show, again!</description>

		<description>JFC [24] -

I wondered if anyone was going to pick up on that.  I did consider trying to work &quot;Yea! Heavy And A Bottle Of Bread&quot; or &quot;Please, Mrs. Henry&quot; in, but gave up in the end...

Heh.

		<description>JFC,

&lt;i&gt;Maybe your Sunday party should do reggae (and reggae-inspired) tunes some time.&lt;/i&gt;

Sounds like a plan! Shall we do it this Sunday?</description>

		<description>MtnCaddy,

I&#039;ll take a look at that Biden piece after the concert.

And, I saw your mea culpa the other day and was duly impressed. I had to wait for Joshua to respond, though. 

Kudos from me, as well ... very nicely done!</description>

		<description>[22] 

Once I digested the thought, I smiled inward knowing I had chosen to spend a portion of my disposable time wisely. 

Again.


I&#039;m sometimes reminded of &#039;Frank&#039; magazine, ( the trippy-go-lucky iteration of the poor thing as it was in the &#039;90s) when Brian Mulroney was Byron Muldoon, the lounge lizard who always seemed to wind up horizontally jogging with some Back-bencher, figuratively or otherwise.

Was I wrong to think you were making a Bob Dylan reference? That&#039;s why I said Big Orange and pink slip.</description>

After I wrote it, I thought about it and came to the same conclusion -- tiptoeing would BREAK the eggshells more!  But I just liked the sound of it so much that I left it in...

		<description>Bleyd [15] -

After I wrote that, I had to look up the word myself, just to be sure I was using it right.  And I found the second definition, for aircraft.  &quot;Huh!&quot; I thought.  &quot;Learn something new every day!&quot;

So your comment made me laugh, because I never would have imagined someone in the opposite position...

		<description>@caddy,

nice to see you back from self-imposed suspension. i felt it was inappropriate for me to say anything at that time, but major kudos to you for choosing to step back and do the introspection.</description>

		<description>Something for Elizabeth,






From &lt;a href=&quot;https://www.theatlantic.com/politics/archive/2020/11/why-biden-won-presidency/616980/&quot; rel=&quot;nofollow&quot;&gt; Why Biden Won&lt;/a&gt; in The Atlantic.





&lt;i&gt;Biden is only the fourth candidate to beat an incumbent in the past 100 years, and he did it against a president directing the force of his entire administration into a taxpayer-funded reelection effort. Biden won the most votes in American history, and with votes still being counted that are leaning his way, his share of the electorate is already on par with the percentage of the vote Ronald Reagan won in 1980; it’s looking like the second-biggest popular-vote margin in the past 20 years, after Obama’s in 2008. He had strong support from moderates and progressives, won more votes from Black voters and women than either Obama or Clinton did, and ran stronger in many white areas than Democrats have recently.&lt;/i&gt;</description>

		<description>E.m is correct. I saw the same show in Picton, Prince Eddy County, Ontario, (Prince Eddy is that lump of shmutz that can be found tethered to the northside of Lake Ontario)


It&#039;s remarkably good, the ensemble includes well-appointed session musicians, the quintessential starving artists of music. 



I&#039;ve also seen the similarly styled &#039;Brown Bomber&#039; and Aqualung iterations of the same theme.


The halcyon days of thoughtlessly hauling myself half an hour in the wrong direction to arduously enjoy an undistanced and awkwardly close social happening.


Went out for that once a year event that one does to satisfy social convention on the anniversary one&#039;s existence. Et-al is fond of this niggle some perennial chore, I enjoy the free lunch.


I was astounded when our favorite darbar was open for take out only. Reeling, I asked the head waiter, Ashu, why so draconian these measures?


Apparently, our CV19 inflicted doubled overnight to six and according to rigorous &#039;tracing&#039;, two of the three lepers had been in the vicinity a few days earlier... Imagine my surprise. Our city of 140k has had almost zero CV19, less than 50 to be sure, for the first time this pandemic, I suddenly realised how oppressive lockdowns can be. 


Serious drag this is, when I choose to be aloof it&#039;s because I&#039;m no friend to crowds, proximity and people shorter than me by more than six inches but less than twelve. It makes me edgy, when I get edgy, the filter shuts off and an inconsolable brute drops by to ensure a a shit time is had by all. 

I realise now, there are people other than myself. Am I glad they chose to live elsewhere? 



Of course.



Remain safe, resist your libertarian urges, if you have to go out to fight in feral gangs for food, do so well separated and with face coverings. It really is that simple.

Re: Houses of the Holy

Led Zep was never my cup of tea, but I did like D&#039;Yer Mak&#039;er. It amuses me that DJs still mispronounce the name of it. It&#039;s a reggae-inspired song and it&#039;s pronounced Jurmaker (Jamaica). 

Maybe your Sunday party should do reggae (and reggae-inspired) tunes some time.</description>

		<description>Had to look up the word &quot;canard&quot; to figure out why that joke was supposed to work.  I only knew the second definition of the word, a forward wing of an aircraft, and was wondering how that could possibly be related to the topic (although, the image of Trump stuck on a wing of a fighter jet is hilarious).  Thanks for the vocab lesson!</description>

		<description>Yes, SF Bear, precision is important when attributing blame for not helping the American people.

Your fellow citizens are hurting, for real. And, I&#039;ll bet that most of them don&#039;t care who is to blame for their pain. They&#039;re just trying to get through their day. 

Democrats could have gone along with the nonsense of Republicans before the election and passed something, regardless of how inadequate it was because it was something. And, they could try again. 

This should be the number one issue Democrats run on for the Georgia senate seats.</description>

		<description>The National Republican Senatorial Committee sent the following text to the death cult:

&lt;blockquote&gt;It’s Don Jr. If the Democrats win the runoffs in Georgia, they take control of the Senate. We cannot afford to let that happen. We need 2 more patriots in your area to join us. You could put us over the top!&lt;/blockquote&gt;

Please note that the Dems would only take control if The Monster is the tiebreaker. Junior is skating on thin ice.</description>

		<description>&lt;i&gt;He doesn&#039;t even mention these crucial races in his tweets.&lt;/i&gt;

I&#039;m afraid that&#039;s incorrect.

&lt;blockquote&gt;Wow! Governor Kemp will hopefully see the light before it is too late. Must finally take charge! Two GREAT Senators, who do so much for Georgia and truly love the USA, are in a must win battle with two incompetents who don’t have a clue!&lt;/blockquote&gt;</description>

		<description>The Wayne County, Michigan canvassing board incident today highlights just how insane the GOP has become. The fact that the board fairly quickly reversed the vote indicates that the two Republican members underestimated just how much heat they would take for their idiocy. Living in a bubble and a death cult can only provide so much insulation. Two fairly anonymous people instantly became international media villains and apparently didn&#039;t like it. The upside is they decided not to drink the Flavor Aid for Dear Leader.</description>

		<description>&quot;Tiptoeing on eggshells&quot; is not a mixed metaphor as long as you understand, correctly, that an attempt to tiptoe on the eggshells will end up making them crack even louder.</description>

		<description>EM #2  We all need to be a little more precise in our language.  It is not &quot;Congress&quot; that is failing to pass a stimulus bill.  The House passed one many months ago, it is the Republican Senate, Moscow Mitch to be precise, that is refusing to help Americans.  We all need to make it abundantly clear who is causing Americans to suffer needlessly.  As always it is the Repubs.</description>

		<description>Well, it wasn&#039;t really about economics except to highlight how many Americans are now relying on food banks to eat while congress fails to pass a COVID relief package in the middle of a horribly worsening pandemic. :(</description>
