RIP: Slim Whitman

How I remember those commercials. Order now. Slim Whitman's Greatest Hits. 40 classics such as Indian Love Call and this one, Rose Marie. My grandmother's name was Rose Marie.

Dude was near 90 (30 years ago).

I have just learned that 75% of the original Black Sabbath have recorded an album, their first in 30 years. Allmusic.com thinks it's pretty good. I will withhold judgment and let you know. Here's a taste.

Ugh.

Ugh. As in Ugly Kid Joe.

I’m Back!

Been away so long I hardly knew the place, gee it's good to be back home.

I'm back, people. No posts since May 24? Despicable me.

Oh, yes, I'm back. I'm back with a post on one of my favorite things to hate.

Chief Wahoo. The time to go has come.

Lets celebrate my return with a crappy Aerosmith song.

Triple Conjunction

Having three planets align close together is an infrequent event from a human perspective. On Sunday night, Jupiter, Venus and Mercury or all form a tight triangle in the western sky. The best time to look will be between 30 and 60 minutes after sunset. You must have a clear view of the western horizon since the planets will be pretty low at that point.

Let Venus be your guide. It pops out of the fading twilight long before the others. As soon as you locate Venus, look in that direction using binoculars. If your binoculars are typical, all three planets will fit in the eyepiece simultaneously. As the twilight continues to fade, set the optics aside; eventually the triangle will become visible to the naked eye.

Here's Los Lobos.

It’s A Dangerous Game

Having solved all other pressing matters, the New York Legislature now takes on the hazard of wet bowling shoes.

Enjoy some totally unrelated, but very nice, music from Young The Giant.
