Based on the description I was thinking Jennings Farm Blues...
The studio outtakes of this - it's whole evolution, is just so cool.

There is no way Putin was going to stand for that and as the saber rattling grew ever louder, he decided enough was enough and executed the invasion.
Agree with this. The line drawn was consistently redrawn up to the borders of Russia itself which was against agreed principles out of the Cuban missile crisis (or at least, that's how I understand it). And given Vlad's, shall we say, traditional world view, you could very well say it was inevitable. Still, if it turned out the shitty post WW2 Communism system churned out a far superior military capability than the west, I'm sure the march westward would not have stopped. AT ALL.
The best thing out of this is the exposure of the actual power Putin holds. All the details and limitations.
I am hopeful Ukraine will become an independent democracy that lives up to it's status as a BOSS for how it stood up when invaded. Fairy tales almost never happen, I back Ukraine to be one.
The glass is half full Steve.

I even saw a video a few weeks ago of Tyson & Holyfield sitting down together and chatting it up....
Not sure if this is the case because I cannot remember the source, but I saw they (Tyson and Holyfield) are releasing some cannabis candy in the shape of an ear with a bite out of it. Brilliant, and I hope these gentlemen make a shit ton of money off that idea. Isn't it amazing how the passage of time changes perspectives on all things. Getting more mellow I think is part of that.

Wednesday. Great Tim Burton series that really pays homage to the original dark concept of the Adams Family. 3 eps in and loving it.

I believe there's a local conspiracy that tracks my truck with a hidden device that knows to change the signal to a red light just before I get to the intersection.
Redrum......Redrum......Redrum......Redrum.......
Now THAT is one I have first hand experience with. There are a few nearby sets that it's 1 in 10 you get the green.

Can I ask again how Bill Gates implanting a chip into the general public helps him buy more land?
It doesn't. it's a moronic "theory". Those that subscribe to this are no different to flat earthers. It boggles the mind how anyone capable of rational thought really thinks this is a thing.

Happy Thanksgiving my American friends/nutbags. 👍

Millennial rock writers are the bane of my existence. They tell us nothing we don't already know and, in this case, completely overlook the fact Coda contains some vocal tracks recorded by Robert after 1980.
What about early Zep critics. Seems they were not much better? (I'm looking at YOU Rolling Stone writers) Some of the horrendous reviews that were embarrassingly bad - and aged worse.

Will miss Real Time now it's over for the year. The last couple of eps have been killer, today he killed it. Fuck the guy can jump around, which is actually more fun. Bill went out on an absolute banger.

Spring here too. Sunny and warm this week. All the rain is contained down south.

I was just wondering, do kids even waste time trick or treating anymore?
We got kids coming around this year. 7 or 8 groups. First time really since Covid, and still quite "new" down here in Oz. Was fun, missus dressed up as a witch and hid on the front porch and "got" plenty of the kids for a good scare/laugh. I used to think it was all a bit shit, but rather like it now.

Seems last week was an anomaly. Winter is back. mid 20's every day this week and rain. Any time you want to send that weather, we're ready Chillumpuffer.

How can swimming in the surf for all of 3 hours max yesterday result in such mad all over body aches today?

War in Ukraine

I'll disagree with you there. I reckon it's a good example. In that I'd like to think we would be able to produce something of a fighting force if we were invaded. It is highly unlikely now, but it is a fucked up world and who knows down the road. Resource wars, mass population displacements that are coming...
Of course, I'd like to think... is laughably optimistic. We'd almost certainly be fucked at least for a good while. But it's good to see Ukraine do it. Good on them.
