Well, that's no way to start! Rangers, 6, Penguins- 0.

It's been stressful since Friday. My sister lives in the St. Pete Beach area in Florida, and was flooded out by the storm surge Thursday night. She lived in a first floor apartment about a block from a little bay inlet and it rose fast and about 4 feet high into her home. She literally lost everything except a few dishes as her car was flooded out too. Luckily she and her neighbors are physically fine, but its been a lot of trying to find resources, etc. She and a few neighbors are in an an Air bnb for a few days and she already found another apartment, yay! It took a lot of resources when her husband passed from cancer a few years ago though, and so I had to explain all this to my elderly mom and tell her we needed her help to all pitch in so my sis could put a deposit down on an apartment that like 15 other people want right now. Face palm to myself as I should have had a bit more patience with my mom. However, 30 minutes of "I really feel safer sending a check" (mom) vs. "There is literally nowhere to send the check to right now" (me) I spent another 10 minutes trying to explain Venmo and then just gave up and said, " Write me the check and I can email her the money." "Well, why didn't you say that, that is amazing! Lets do it!" Yay mom, I'm just not a good explainer! I should have said that first! Apartment ready to move into Saturday! Life's often interesting around here.

I picked top five. Fly By Night, Permanent Waves, AFTK are awesome and Power Windows is pretty good too. Are we counting the liner notes? Those were the best! There are a few album covers I like better, though not many- Sgt Peppers, Dark Side Of The Moon, that Joy Division mountain thing, Aladdin Sane.

THANK YOU, EP! That was so entertaining and hilarious! I had heard that Neal Schon was a jerk, but not any of that other stuff. Too funny! You would think they'd relax and enjoy their second stardom

Sad situation. Substance abuse is difficult and I hope Perry gets help, but as a fan I also really notice when bands have a strong work ethic (or don't) and work (or get a therapist like Metallica) so that this kind of thing doesn't happen. Didn't Journey just cancel half a tour also because Jonathan Cain and Neal Schon couldn't get along?

Aww, shoot. RIP Tito . He taught himself to play guitar from blues records, and harmony with his brothers. I really like the Jackson Five, although the overbearing dad thing was very real.

Happy 14th anniversary to mew, Babycat!

That's awesome! Got to this a little late for today's show but will try and catch you tomorrow night!

. Thanks so much, 73! That sounds familiar, I probably forgot!

I had a question from another member along the same lines and thought I would change my signature up a little and remind myself how to do it. I've done it in the past, but I can't find anything in my profile area to be able to do it again ??!! Did a software update change it? Or is it my old MAC computer that can't see it somehow? Any input appreciated!

That's cool that he was able to intervene and help so much. Our news covered it this morning and said that Jon had undergone some kind of communication training way back when he opened his restaurant that employs the homeless. He wanted to be sure he had skills to talk to people outside the rock world. Looks like he got to use them again today- good job!

Congratulations !!! Accountant, and Welcome to the Hallowed Hall !! Well done!

Gotta love Amy Madigan as Amy Kinsella, and her response- "At least he is not a book burner, you Nazi cow." Who ever thought we would be dealing with this in real life again? RIP, James Earl Jones. He was so great as Terence Mann. I would have loved to see him in Fences on Broadway- apparently it was a life changing performance; and I can see where it would be.

Aww, thank you Sun and Moon! Yes, I am doing much better these days, finally!

Thanks so much, custom! I hope its a great fall with some good concerts for you!
