I’ve got to go with my favorite counter-culture anthem of all time: Grace Slick/Jefferson Airplane giving the world White Rabbit.

At last a cultural outing; I went to Carnegie Hall yesterday for the annual appearance of The English Concert staging a Handel piece. This time it was the oratorio Hercules. The piece was unknown to me; I’ve never heard any of the music before, and I enjoyed it greatly. It’s well-known among my...

We all like different things. I find no season of Bridgerton completely outstanding; every season for me has strengths and weaknesses. That said, I think this season is far and away the best of the 4. The second half is a 180 degree turn from the first half. It will hit you in the gut when you...

Regarding Toy Story: it’s been s long time since I’ve seen them, but one of them, and I’m thinking 3, is a blatant rip off of The Brave Little Toaster. I’ll take TBLT any day over whichever Toy Story ripped it off.

I fell asleep earlier than usual and then woke up in the middle of the night. When I looked at the time it was 2:56am and Bridgerton was dropping at 3am in NY, so I turned on my laptop and watched it all. It’s like the other 3 seasons in that it’s a mix of stuff that works and stuff that doesn’t.

I can’t quite put my finger on why, but I am not liking this season at all. I’ve seen all the seasons of US, England, Australia, and New Zealand that have been available on Peacock, and this one is the worst. The UK Traitors was so much better than this.

I did and I loved it.

Everyone in my family saves pennies; I have a sentimental attachment to them. My grandfather saved pennies in a galvanized bucket; when I was born the bucket and pennies reportedly weighed 40 lbs. My grandfather took the bucket of unwrapped pennies to the bank and cashed them in; it was enough...

Paige seems nice, but Izzy is a nasty bitch; I want her off my TV now. Her comments about wanting to rip Jag’s head off his neck (which she’s been making since the first episode) are uncalled for. I’d be happy if she gets sent packing asap.

FOR SALE: One all-event ticket for Skate Canada, Oct 31-Nov 2, 2025x Section K, Row 5, Seat 9. Electronic ticket should be available soon. Contact [email protected] if interested.

It’s a whole Bingo! all on it’s own.

I won’t know until Tuesday or Wednesday, but I’m fairly certain I will have one ticket for sale. You would be in the row with me, Cygnus, and 4rkidz. Just post here if interested and I’ll contact you.

I think the winners are going to be the team that finally figures out that the alliance strategy that wins you BB is not the strategy that wins you AR; for AR you need the racing for yourselves, no helping others strategy. They all need to dump the BB mindset fast.

I’m fine with the majority vote. Saskatoon Inn or Earls seem good choices.
