Sometimes it reminds me of William Burroughs when he would purposely cut up his dialogue and throw it in a pile and then pick the pieces out in random order and compose that as the story.
It didn’t always work, but at least he had strong themes and ideas that would allow some connection to the cut and paste jive.

Addendum to what others have described downstairs.
F-16 jets escort Milwaukee flight and 1 other to Atlanta after threat
Multiple news outlets are reporting that two flights, including one originating in Milwaukee, received escorts from F-16 fighter jets and safely landed in Atlanta after receiving bomb threats Saturday.
The Associated Press reported that officials described the threats as credible.
The two passenger flights were Southwest 2492 from Milwaukee, and Delta 1156 from Portland. The flights were bound for Atlanta.
According to news accounts, the threats appear to have originated from the Twitter handle @kingZortic. The account includes one tweet taunting authorities to come to a specific address in Chicago to find him.
Officials described the bomb threats as credible, according to The Associated Press.
Police were searching the two planes.

OT, I posted the below in the downstairs thread, but wanted to be sure it was seen by William.
re: #62 William Barnett-Lewis
Can’t speak to the quality of the gear, having never tried it or heard it. Nor do I claim to be any type of expert. However:
My Telecaster is a favorite guitar. Easier to tune and keep in tune than a Strat. Very easy to play with a light action. An inexpensive version may not have the tone of a better one, but for your purposes should be fine. If there is a music store nearby that carries Fender/Squire you might go try one to check the feel and tone. Like I said, never played a Squire telecaster so my comments are based on playing my Fender.
As far as the amp, my spouse regularly walks around the house and announces that we have “too much stuff”. I may have a small Peavey amp that I’d be willing to pass along. Brand new, never used. Would rather it go to a good home than sit unused. Already have a number of amps and really have no need for the tiny one. It’s similar to the Fender pictured. I’d part with it for no charge; it would make the spouse happy to see stuff go out the door.
The only other advice I’d offer is to consider a classical guitar. My experience is that nylon string guitars are better than electrics for new students. I believe Yamaha makes some inexpensive guitars that can sound decent and play fairly well for a beginner guitar. Also, when I need to sharpen up my playing I usually switch to an acoustic for a while; you find out quickly where you were “cheating” or being sloppy.
I find playing guitar to be a great stress reliever. Good luck!

re: #40 A Cranky One
Classic guitar is a great suggestion. Nylon strings are easier to play, the fingerboards are wider and you can play quietly easily. Crucial for beginning stages in multiple person households. I would also add to stay away from a guitar with a whammy bar. They are harder to restring and any pressure from your picking hand on the floating bridge will change the tone while you’re playing it.

re: #59 Amory Blaine
I started off aeons ago with a steel string Yamaha, which eventually was stolen, and as a gift my wife bought me a nylon string gitbox. It had a lovely sound, but I’m a strummer not a picker, and I prefer the louder sound of a steel string acoustic, so I traded it for another Yahama. Just a thought from a guy who knows four chords and likes to kick back and sing and play Jimmie Rodgers railroad tunes.

I know it’s the conventional wisdom that the GOP Apparat will use these nut jobs to generate enthusiasm, but then a supposedly “less-frightening” candidate like Mittens or JEB! will wind up as the nominee, but this time I can’t help feeling that these Monsters from the Id won’t be denied, and we could wind up with the craziest of them (or somebody crazier we haven’t thought of yet) as the official presidential candidate of one of the two major parties in the most powerful country in the world.
I try to tell myself: “Good! They can’t possibly be elected.” This is some really dangerous shit to fuck around with, though. I don’t know if I’m going to make it through the next two years…at least with my sanity intact.

Mike Huckabee Pushes for an American Theocracy
“Former Arkansas Gov. Mike Huckabee (R) said during an appearance Thursday on a Christian television show that he’s thinking about running for President to help the nation know where laws come from: God.
“We cannot survive as a republic if we do not become, once again, a God-centered nation that understands that our laws do not come from man, they come from God,” he said on the show “Life Today.”
“When Huckabee added that he wasn’t demanding a theocracy, host James Robison said, “We have a theocracy right now. It’s a secular theocracy.”
“That’s it!” Huckabee said, describing the current political order as “humanistic, secular, atheistic, even antagonistic toward Christian faith.”
