"The song is about making every minute count and living up to your potential. In that sense I think that people like Mark Ruffalo or people who hike might like the song. Or it could be good while you’re working out." (thelemontwigs.com)

There is no opposite word for “not.” The opposite of “not” is to omit it. For example, the opposite of “She is not here” is “She is here.” Sometimes you also have to omit “do.” For example, the opposite of “Do not walk there” is “Walk there.” Food for thought.

Church's dirty rice is *liver-forward*. It might not look good, depending on your sense of aesthetics, but it tastes good. Popeye's dirty rice is okay. I think they might have discontinued it in the South too, though. Or maybe it was just the Popeye's we went to last.

Just gettin an eye on that Scotch. It's super light in color, which most likely indicates it's either not too old (which means it's not pricey due to age). So, more likely aged in multiply used barrels. The most likely would be Caol Ila. The 12yr is about $90. Older bottling can go for much more. That's my guess...

MMt, dismissed after having shown up, or just told the night before they don't need you?

The latter's happened to me the last four, maybe five, times I've been summoned. But I don't count those.

Dismissed once in Pittsburgh after sitting all day and they didn't have a ready case by end of day. Served in Brockton about twenty years ago. Were I retired with time on my hands, it would be an interesting periodic civic exercise.

Chilly Scenes Of Winter (USA, 1979, dir. Joan Micklin Silver)
Monster (Japan, 2023, dir. Hirokazu Kore-eda)

CSow is strange, it seems like a rom-co, down to the soft jazz, but more and more you realize the fella (John Heard) might be a dangerous stalker. The studio released it as a rom-com called Head Over Heels, it failed, but the amkers got a sadder ending put on it and released it as CSoW. It's very good.
Monster is also quite an experience, i went in knowing nothing and I'm glad; all I'll say is it's a great example of how movies , and POV in movies, can fool you. Comparisns to Rashomon are valid.

i'd have been even more pissed if they had confirmed my bill and then bumped it two weeks prior to the date because another line up "won the challenge." this is booking professional traveling guitar-owners, not some reality game show...

in contrast, Siberia was fantastic! they took on a bunch of shows left without a venue when Gasa Gasa closed, treated us very nicely, and we all had a good time.

there are a plethora of good series, tho. actually, too many to name. seems like the strikes did not affect production all that much (unless that is coming?).

So if someone loved 'Jumpin' Jive' but doesn't want to see Joe do only half a show of his own music. and the other half a tribute to an obscure music hall artist this summer, is he a philistine?
