Finally all is melted and the UPS was able to bring to PO for delivery.

Busy creating a musical birthday present so ripping it in will happen later.

in the Bay Area.

Those parents who found a used condom in their bed must have been relieved to know that their kids are practising safe sex. Assuming they were over the age of consent, of course.

That wind chill temp is said to frostbite bare skin in one minute.
They don't go out of the weather station when it's like this.

BC, so close for Mr. 1978 getting 7878. The random current of the universe.

Speaking of random current, do any of you audiophiles use power line conditioners? Heard they protect well but can dull the dynamics of the sound. And Oro(2) I have that electrician scheduled. Good call amigo.

Cheers

....how does that work? Well, by tying it to that chinese surveillance balloon, that's how!

Was reading about that -108 wind chill at Mount Washington before I went to bed. I was watching the temps drop here in Boston to -8 about 12:15 (wind chill got to -35), and while my wife and I watched a Death in Paradise, I put a room temp water bottle on our balcony, and by the end of the episode it wasn't frozen solid, but pretty darn close. And exposing my freshly shorn head in that -8 for 45 seconds was sufficient for me to say I have felt that low a temp. Luckily, it's now a balmy 11 outside, and tomorrow will get up to 48. But I have no reason to leave the apartment today as my Tar Heels look to go into Durham and destroy the demonic Blue Devils that dwell there. Like Hunter S. Thompson and the 1972 Super Bowl, I need to prepare. Well, not exactly like the good Doctor, but definitely got to get the mind, body, and soul right for this collision. At least Bill Walton knows of what I babble.

My DaP 45 did finally move on from Label Creation Limbo, but now has sat in Riverside, CA without change for 3 days, though I am promised USPS delivery on Sunday, not sure how that works. But fingers crossed.

After that 9/9/72 Other One, I went back to DaP 24 8/25/72 and DiP 36 9/21/72 filler from 9/3/72, and they were playing some magnificent beasts in that few weeks. I'm gonna be greedy and hope that some of the filler from 9/19 is that show's Other One. And looks like DiP 23 9/17/72 with its He's Gone> 39 min Other One> Sing Me Back Home, which I completely forgot about, will be rocking while I watch the game. Stay warm and well lubricated, people!

Got mine. I'm totally cool with the fact that they started the show out with an audience patch... it's about the content, right? Not the medium. I love those old Humphrey Bogart and Boris Karloff movies and they can only be made to look so "good," even on the finest modern equipment.

Insomnia does blow, the worst is "trying" to fall asleep. I learned years ago when struggling to get some sleep after ingesting too many of the wrong kind of chemicals that there is great value in simply resting one's body and trying to quiet the mind. In fact, over a few hours time spent thusly I've achieved some pretty blissful states, rising in the early morning feeling much fresher and less fatigued than if I struggled and stressed trying techniques to fall asleep. It it happens, great, if not, no sense in fighting it.

Been on a rare Foo Fighters binge lately, there's a brilliant cover of Gerry Rafferty's "Baker Street" out there worth checking out.

Time to go make a cup of coffee before taking some lads to the batting cages.

the only house party is in my head. Mother of Goodness, this 10/1 Estimated sounds freaking amazing!! Betty was a magician.

BigChief - I would email Dr. Rhino for a replacement of the scratched disc if you haven't already done that.

1st show - some seemingly random current in the universe was trying to hook you up with #7878. it came pretty close!

....-108 F registered on top of Mount Washington in New Hampshire. That's Mars (Hotel) temps. Likely a new record for the U.S. 🥶 (Blues). Brought to you by Ice Nine Productions.
Now back to your regularly scheduled house parties.

I never threw one at my parent’s house. Knew better than that.

My friend threw one in his parent’s house, no damage except a small cigarette burn and got it completely cleaned up. When his parents were back they found a used condom in their bed.
