Sun & Moon

Sorry to hear this, too, Jem. It can be very painful to think about the things that might have been but that never came true. I hope you'll find some comfort in doing things you love.

One disappointing point against Spezia today. Well, it's better than zero points.

Happy 2023!

I'm so sorry to hear this. My condolences to you and your family. Take care of yourself.

He's lovely! All the best for this new buddy!

Brothers Osborne. Fine musicians, great songs. Been listening to their 2020 album Skeletons on repeat for weeks. It's the best new stuff I've heard in a few years.

Yes, and it's also 2112 today as I write this. I'm wearing my 2112 t-shirt at work. Happy winter solstice and 2112 to everybody!

I've bee offline a lot, but as I got the news weeks ago it hit me pretty hard. RIP Wilko. Heard him live once more than ten years ago. Never got to see Dr. Feelgood, one of the greatest rock bands in it's original lineup.

Memory of Ocean (The Finnish original is called Meren muisti) by Petra Rautiainen (2022). What a story! https://issuu.com/rightsandbrands/docs/r_b_21x21_spring2022_issuu/s/15284608

I'm sad to hear this. I hope you both feel better already.

I should read this, too. Thank you for reminding me. The late, great Jeremy Brett played the role of Maxim de Winter in a BBC TV adaptation from 1979.

Truly a sad list.

Many other animals are presented in the emoji list, but no dogs. Indeed, the dalmatian would raise a few questions about how to interpret the meaning, but that's the nature of emojis (especially those on TRF and other forums using the same platform). But we could really have use for a dalmatian!

Happy Birthday Segue!

Rest in peace, Loretta.

Happy Birthday, invisible airwave! I hope your day has been full of joy and happiness!

Come meet Captain Twain, a decent man struggling to cope in the middle of unexpected and enchanting events on his ship. Meet Lafayette, a true ladies' man with more hidden in his chest than a very big heart for beauties. See the great steamboats on the majestic river Hudson. Greet the illustrations, so easy on the eye and high in artistic value, with satisfaction. Come join the adventure that keeps you reading until your room seems to float far, far away.

That's sad. I'd choose people before politics and isms, and I can feel your disappointment.

I've said it before and I will say it again: I love HYF. The mixing is what it is but the softness feels very comforting to me. HYF in it's entirety puts me in a creative mood. Most songs are energetic and beautiful, and the bass lines are delicious. Tai Shan has a different feel to it than the previous songs on the album but usually I listen to it as well.

Yet another graphic novel. The Twilight Man : Rod Serling and the Birth of Television by Koren Shadmi. This one's very easy to recommend! https://www.humanoids.com/y_catalog/book?id=918

Mooncakes by Wendy Xu and Suzanne Walker. A graphic novel that gives a warm and cozy feeling. https://www.simonandschuster.com/books/Mooncakes/Suzanne-Walker/9781549303043

Signals is one of the top 2 Rush albums for me. It's excellent. By the way, I'd like to see a Dalmatian emoji on TRF.

Earl Palmer is #1. Clyde Stubblefield, Ziggy Modeliste, Bonzo, Art Blakey, Jo Jones, just to name a few others I like. There are a lot of great drummers out there like Abe Laboriel Jr. and Stanley Randolph as well.
