    Ok. I guess it could be done maybe. But is there a better live album?

    Renaissance was introduced to me by a buddy in the dorms at PSU in the early 1980s. Annie Haslam had a spectacular voice, and this is perhaps my favorite song on this live album:

    Interesting video on rise and fall of steel industry...

    One of my favorite books is "Sparrows Point," which covers the rise and fall of the Bethlehem Steel plant at Sparrows Point in Baltimore. I intend to watch that video this afternoon. I hope it includes something on Sparrows Point.

    How are you people in the Northeastern quarter of the country dealing with the heat and humidity more common to the Southeastern quarter?

    Heh. Here in Hotlanta, max temp was "only" about 95 degrees today. I saw on the news this evening that the temperature in Lititz, PA, was 103 degrees. Stuart Varney noted that it was already 93 degrees in New York at 11 AM. I'll take the "hot" weather in the summer for warmth with the early...

    AKB: Is opening your computer and cleaning the dust out of it viable for a civilian?

    I checked the specs for your Ryzen 5700G: https://www.techpowerup.com/cpu-specs/ryzen-7-5700g.c2472 It released in April 2021, has 8 cores and 16 threads. It's not a high-level CPU, but it's not bad either. Your computer can't be more than 4 years old unless you bought it right when that CPU...

    AKB: Is opening your computer and cleaning the dust out of it viable for a civilian?

    I try to do this regularly. You wouldn't believe the dust and crud that can build up. Look on Amazon for battery-powered vacuums and blowers that do a good job (as good or better than canned air) and are a bit less forceful, and so more appropriate for delicate electronics. When you blow...

    RIP - Ted Turner

    What I admire Ted Turner for the most was using satellite technology to give his Channel 17 "Superstation" national reach. He gave the Atlanta Braves a national audience (not saying I'm a huge Braves fan, but I admire how he made them more than just a local team). His later forays into cable...

    FC/OT: New York Times' 30 Greatest Living American Songwriters.

    "Schmaltzy?" Captain Jack and Miami 2017 are "schmaltzy?" Goodnight Saigon is schmaltzy? His omission is especially surprising given the NYT critics weighing in on this - either they didn't have much pull, or commute from Jersey, hence the inclusion of Springsteen. I'm sure Joel is...

    OT: TMB TV/Streaming Shows Club: Thread for streaming/TV show discussion…

    Recently started watching the 12 Monkeys series, currently streaming on Prime. Now into season 2. One of those rare shows that really grabbed me from the outset and made me want to keep watching. Highly recommend. I haven't watched the Bruce Willis movie yet (have never seen it), intend to...
