lyrics

too slow
saw you and it only took a second for me to know
that i want you bad
tell you before you go

seeing you
i swear there’s something so familiar
like i’ve known you all this time
got to got to got be mine

if you want it you can get it
if you feel it you should let it
if you’re leaving you should let me know
if you’re dancing i’m a dancer
if you’ll risk it i’m a chancer
got a question, i’m the answer oh

i saw you now you
got to got to be mine

keep up
call it like i see it and you look just like i dreamed it
you got a face like film grain
if you leave that’s a shame

seeing you
i swear there’s something so familiar
like i’ve known you all this time
got to got to got be mine

if you want it you can get it
if you feel it you should let it
if you’re leaving you should let me know
if you’re dancing i’m a dancer
if you’ll risk it i’m a chancer
got a question, i’m the answer oh

i saw you now you
got to got to be mine

I should probably take this as an insult to my family and heritage but I honestly just can’t.

He seemed just like any of my dad’s cousins and uncles the few times I met him when I was young. They all had that same German from Russia accent. He’d come back once in a while to visit his hometown (and my dad’s hometown) of Strasburg ND, and make the rounds stopping by family homes.

re: #53 FFL (GOP Delenda Est)

George MacDonald Fraser’s memoir about his war experiences in Burma _Quartered Safe Out Here: A Recollection of the War in Burma_ was very complimentary of the Gurkhas. Said they seemed pretty carefree and happy when he encountered them and they got along well with the English troops. But he also said they had a well-earned fearsome reputation in combat.

And the British army still has a Brigade of Gurkhas. The Singapore Police Force also has a Gurkha Contingent which according to wikipedia is the core of their riot control and anti-terrorist force.

Bugles and a Tiger: My Life in the Gurkhas
John Masters

… Though there are, of course, exceptions, the distinguishing marks of the Gurkha are usually a Mongolian appearance, short stature, a merry disposition, and an indefinable quality that is hard to pin down with one word. Straightness, honesty, naturalness, loyalty, courage—all these are near it, but none is quite right, for the quality embraces all of these. … In a Gurkha regiment nothing was ever stolen. Desertions were unheard of …There were no excuses, no grumbling, no shirking, no lying. There was no intrigue, no apple-polishing, and no servility.
The perfect man—or, at the least, the perfect soldier? Not quite. The Gurkha was slow at book-learning, and he liked gambling, rum, and women; and, in his own home, he was apt to be unkempt.
But these large generalizations are vague and patronizing. It is impossible to give an idea of the Gurkha by such mean, because each Gurkha is a separate man.
…The Gurkha keeps faith not only with his fellow men but with great spiritual concepts, and, above all, with himself. He seems to be born with the ability to see the heart of a problem regardless of distracting circumstances, red herrings, or conflicting advice. He does not think, cogitate—he will tell you shyly that he is not clever enough for that—but he bends facts, arguments, and logic to fit what he somehow knows is right…

A relic of the Korean War was a British presence in the UN Combined Forces Command. During our years at the combined headquarters, a Gurkha brigade filled that role. They were very strac, had a good bagpipe band, and did a nice business selling kukris to the American GIs.

My mother did a trip to Nepal and India back in the mid-1990s. She was given a souvenir-class kukri which she passed on to me. Decorative, but not of that good quality steel. A few years later I gave it to a friend of mine who collected knives and had much more appreciation for it than I did.

re: #20 BeenHereAwhile

During one of my cruise ship gigs, I met one of the guys from the Security team. If I remember right, his name was Sanjay. On this ship, all of the Security officers were from Nepal. I used to practice piano backstage in the wee small hours of the morning, and every hour he would pass by, making his rounds. One day he asked me if I could play (as I understood it at the moment) the Sky Boat Song. I said I didn’t know that one, but I would look it up.

It turns out he meant the Skye Boat Song, which is a beautiful Scottish tune. The next time he came round, I was ready and played the song for him, which he appreciated.

The request was mysterious to me, so I asked how he came to know the tune. He said he used to be in the Gurkas, and it was his favorite bagpipe song, learned while he was stationed for a while in Scotland. American pianist, Nepalese soldier, Scottish tune. There are amazing connections in the world.

Needz moar shivs.

Scoop: GOP smokes Johnson over loss of Capitol cigar space (Axios, four hours ago)

Rep. Tom Cole’s shift to House Appropriations chair has created a quintessentially Capitol Hill problem:

It’s left House Republicans without a private spot to enjoy cigars close to floor, and lawmakers are calling on Speaker Mike Johnson (R-La.) to find a solution.

Why it matters: GOP lawmakers stressed to Axios the need for quiet places to gather off the House floor to bond, saying the loss of Cole’s “hideaway” — as such a reas are known — has left a void Johnson should address.

Given stark divisions and constant infighting in the House GOP conference, there’s an argument for any arrangement that could help this crop of lawmakers build relationships.

Catch up quick: When Cole (R-Okla.) chaired the powerful Rules Committee, his Capitol hideaway was a place for lawmakers to huddle and talk policy over cigars.

But after he became Appropriations chair, he opted to let former chair Kay Granger (R-Texas) — who stepped down from the position earlier this year — retain her hideaway. He did so even as he surrendered the Rules committee chair’s office to that panel’s new leader, Michael Burgess (R-Texas).
That’s left Cole without a hideaway of his own and cigar aficionados without a lair, as Burgess, a physician, has not continued the tradition.

Hey,

It’s technically yesterday on the East Coast now, but Sunday for me was my late mom’s b-day, the day my dad died, and Father’s Day. I think that’s the first time that’s happened since he passed away.

Not gonna say I know what you’re going through, but I empathize. I’m in the “passage of time helps a bit” phase. Despite what my sister says, it’s not that I didn’t get along with my dad, but if he said something not copacetic, I wouldn’t ignore it like the other two would and go all “Eh, whatcha gonna do?”

But I still miss him and am still blown away by all that he accomplished and all he did for us and his grandkids. Not sure I can ever come close to achieving what he did.

Anyways, that’s a long preface for presenting the photo you posted cleaned up in Photoshop. I jimmied with the colors a bit to get rid of the red cast so prevalent in older photos. Hopefully you like it.

Rewatched ‘Tomorrowland’. Still like it a lot. Not perfect but it is a very enjoyable movie. It’s Panglossian, extreme optimism vs cynical pessimism is an important battle to examine. The rhetorical point that accepting that bad things will happen could actually permit them to happen is an interesting argument.

One part I love is the story of the two wolves.

There are two wolves

Trump feeds Darkness and Despair. Biden feeds Hope and Light. I feel we will triumoh the more we feed the the 2nd wolf, even if it makes us seem like Pollyannas.

It is not ignoring that bad things happen. It is refusing to admit that they have to happen; which is the whole point of the movie and why I like it. So few mainstream movies put the battle in those terms.

Nothing very revolutionary, but my frustration with it is that it does not have actionable guidance about to do X or Z.

Instead, it just seems to parametize risks under categories with associated measures of sea level rise (up to over 11 feet by 2150 is worst case scenario.)

Response rates in telephone surveys have resumed their decline

From 2019. Response rates to phone calls was 36% in 1997. It was down to 6% in 2017. This is now including cell phones. But people do not answer cell phones like they do landlines, often not icking up if they do not recognize the number.

It seems likely that the people now being polled may not represent a random cross section of the population.

This greatly increases the costs. Now, to get say 1000 people, they have to call about 5 times as many people. I like the way Pew Research has gone.

Kinda like the way that Nielsen did rating polls for TV.

They spend time vetting and recruiting a random selection of people to include in their polling panel. Once they get people to join, they then go back and poll people from the panel, rather than having to find another random group. They have about 13,000 people total that they know the demographics of. They get answers to polls from a subset of these. They can also use password-protected online polls specifically designed and dedicated to the people on the panel, simplifying getting responses.

This also allows them to easily do longitudinal studies where they check the change in opinons over time from the same group of people.

So more upfront costs but and ongoing ability to call on random groups without having to initiate new telephone surveys each time.

A musician in the United Kingdom discovers what I did about releasing an album back in the Nineties: It’s a lot easier to do on compact cassette tapes (and easier to make at least a small amount of pocket money).

Small-time musicians today are competing today with things that didn’t exist when I made a long-playing, short-selling album: Things like YouTube and Spotify didn’t exist. Today there is the question of “ownership” versus “access.”

It is noteworthy that the last few years have seen a dramatic increase in the sales of physical media (records, cassettes, compact discs). You also won’t suffer a rug pull by a streaming service if they decide they don’t want to host the music you listen to any more.

I still have to smile because listening to this recording today feels a bit like I only dreamed it myself. In fact, I simply can’t remember how, where, and with whom it was made back then…?! 🤷🏻‍♀ Maybe one of you has some clues about it? (:
What is certain is that AMOUR CANDIDE is from 1983 🤩

Enjoy it
Nena

I think it’s fun. I remember being in Germany in 1983 and having a massive crush on Nena 😊

On physical media for music:

My long-playing, short selling album was laid down in a studio in Jacksonville Beach in the summer of 1994 and released on cassette to my (then) wife and me in the spring of 1995. At that time we were still performing together live (she as a singer, me on hammered dulcimer, and a bodhrán player we paid) around Florida and South Georgia. Tape sales augmented performances.

The divorce decree stipulated a few things:

a) Remaining cassettes were to be equally divided between us. Since then I sold all mine; as far as I know she never sold a copy.

b) We each retain 50% ownership of the copyright since we registered it together when we recorded the album. Either of us can release it in the same or a different format, but 50% of the profit must go to the other. No song from the album can be released to the public domain without permission of the other copyright holder.

c) One song on the album is exempted. I did a cover of Enya’s “Lothlórien” with a license from Enya (she got killer royalties from me from the sale of three hundred copies of my album—it was my personal cheque for royalties which made her rich /s). That song cannot be released by either of us without complying with the terms set out in the original license from Enya. [I think my version on hammered dulcimer is better than hers on electronic keyboards, but I’m not biased. /s]

A couple years ago, my ex-wife had a lawyer contact me. She wanted to change her name on the copyright registration from the hyphenated name she adopted when we married to her maiden name. The lawyer demanded I pay for that.

I didn’t bother with a lawyer in my response. I wrote him back with a nice letter basically boiling down to “LOL no. She wants to change her name on the registration she can pay for it.” That was the end of the lawyer but she later called me directly trying to wheedle the money out of me on the telephone. When I refused, she called me “selfish” because I won’t cough up $65 for that.

300,000 pet owners have received cancellation notices from Nationwide regarding their pet insurance.

WSVN-TV, Miami, May 23, 2024
Pet owners upset after receiving notice that their Nationwide pet insurance was dropped

People are posting on TikTok, Reddit and Facebook, and they are angry.

An estimated 300,000 pet owners received letters in the mail saying their Nationwide pet insurance policies would “not be renewed”, according to a report by The Canine Review. Nationwide blames “economic pressures from inflation, higher interest rates and rising costs.”

Robin Tobias and Scott Proxy were notified the policy for their dog, Ginger, was not being renewed.

Robin Tobias: “Absolutely an injustice. If this happened to anybody’s child, I’m sure a lot more action would be taken.”

When they brought Ginger home to Aventura, they wanted to give her the best life possible.

Robin Tobias: “We took a 90% policy with wellness, so we took the best policy that they offered at the time. We wanted to make sure she was covered for everything.”

Scott and Robin got the policy for Ginger when she was younger to make sure she was covered for anything that developed as she got older.

She now has a heart murmur, among other issues, which will make getting a new policy nearly impossible.

Saskatchewan Premier Scott Moe is going to look into chemtrails after claiming he’s received messages from concerned constituents about them.

Regina Leader-Post, June 12, 2024

Sask. NDP questions Moe’s comments at conspiracy theory-filled town hall

Opposition leader Carla Beck called Premier Scott Moe’s conduct “disappointing” in regards to a recent town hall that touched on conspiracy theories and questions critical of the Saskatchewan Health Authority (SHA).

At an April gathering in Speers, Sask., several conspiracy theories were presented to the premier about the World Health Organization (WHO), the SHA deploying bioweapons, chemtrails, the United Nations and more.

In a video of the event, Moe did little to refute the claims and even said he would look into some of them.

“It shouldn’t have been difficult for the premier to simply say, ‘You know what? That’s not the case. Saskatchewan health-care workers and the SHA were not involved in poisoning the population,” Beck said Wednesday.

At the beginning of the video, which was posted online, a host mentioned the anger and distrust that exists within the province and made allusions to the American Revolution and the adoption of the Declaration of Independence.

“Yes, we are angry,” said the man.

Responding to one comment about carbon taxes and emissions, Moe said “it is a scam; it’s a scam to take your money.”

“Will you denounce the WHO pandemic treaty?” another crowd member asked.

“I should look at it a little closer,” responded Moe, agreeing that organizations like the WHO “don’t have people in this room’s best interests in mind.”

Comedy gold right here!

Jerry Seinfeld publicly shamed an anti-Israel heckler who interrupted the famed comedian’s show in Australia with pro-Palestinian chants over the weekend.

Seinfeld, 70, was on stage at the Qudos Bank Arena Sunday night when the heckler began shouting, “From the river to the sea, Palestine will be free,” a video of the gig shared on X by the Australian Jewish Association shows.

“We have a genius, ladies and gentlemen. He solved the Middle East!” Seinfeld joked.

“It’s the Jewish comedian, that’s who we have to get! They’re the ones doing everything.”

Security surrounded the protester as he continued to shout at the comedian while they tried escorting him out of the venue.

“They’re going to start punching you in about three seconds, so I would try to get all of your genius out so we can all learn from you,” Seinfeld told the protestor while getting a roaring round of applause from the crowd.

Aviation stuff. The prefixes on the serial numbers, “58” and “59,” refer to the fiscal years of procurement, 1958 and 1959. Actual delivery would have been a year or so later. Now that the Air Force has (again) retired the latest iteration of the historic DC-3, the Basler UC-47T, KC-135s are the oldest aircraft in service, some dating back to 1957. The C-130 and B-52 have both been in service longer, 1956 and 1955 respectively, but current service aircraft are later versions. All remaining B-52s are “H” models, delivered in 1961-62. The oldest still serving C-130s are from the mid to late 70s, with production of modernized versions continuing.

Greets and saluts from the NYC metro as we are about to endure our first heat wave of the year this week. Fathers Day is terribly bittersweet for me, as mom passed away just before fathers day years back, as a boss move, and dad passed away a few years later.

It sucked something fierce, but less so now that I’m a dad through adoption. The boy is a joy and pain and sleepless nights melt away when he smiles at ya or says something so incredibly cute that you can’t help but laugh.

I know many others here have to endure similar pain and loss of their own dads and it does get better. But there are days when it just gets tough. This week is that week for me.

On the way back, refueled an old AWAC’s with the old engines.

A Republican congressional candidate shaved nearly a decade off his age on a dating website, according to a report Monday.

Pennsylvania state Rep. Ryan Mackenzie messaged women on Tinder in March 2020 claiming to be 29 years old, when he was actually 37, reported the Daily Mail.

“Always down for a good time!” read his Tinder profile, according to screenshots. “Outgoing, funny and enjoy traveling, skiing, trying new restaurants and getting drinks with friends.”

Macenzie, who had married since online dating, was born August 3, 1982, according to his House biography.

He ran unsuccessfully for Congress in 2018 and is now locked in a tight race with incumbent Rep. Susan Wild (D-PA) in one of the most evenly divided congressional districts in the country.

During his Monday War Room broadcast, Bannon interrupted an interview with Arizona Senate candidate Kari Lake (R) to take a call.

“Kari, hang on for one second, I got somebody — I’ve got a call I got to take,” Bannon said before answering the phone.

“Hey, Mr. President, I’m live on TV,” Bannon told Trump. “OK, I’ll call you back, sir. Thank you.”

Lake noted that she would have “given up my segment” if Bannon would put Trump on the air.

She ended the interview with a warning to Democrats campaigning against her Senate bid

Hopefully Diaper Donnie’s PO sees this.

So matty yglesias just figured out Trump’s Presidency Was a Huge Mess

“On the economy, Trumpstalgics say that what matters is that the results were fine, even if the ideas espoused (like funding the entire government with tariffs) were often unsound. But on Covid, Trumpstalgics say that what matters is that he espoused the right ideas (in this case, being less cautious), even if he was completely inefficacious in delivering results.”

“Biden gets no credit for rapid job growth, because that was just the natural unwinding of Covid-era unemployment, but he is personally to blame for every cent of inflation, which is somehow totally unrelated to that unwinding. And the unemployment itself wasn’t Trump’s fault, because it was the virus that caused the collapse of the labor market, but Trump — rather than the aforementioned collapse of the labor market — deserves credit for the temporary halt in the flow of asylum claims.”

“It genuinely makes no sense! And it’s worth taking a break from wrangling over whether January 6 was technically an insurrection or exactly what Trump meant when he suggested using disinfectant on people’s lungs, and zooming out to the part where he was overall bad at the job.”

NJ corruption continues to snag indictments among power brokers. This time, it’s Democrat George Norcross, a South Jersey Democrat and other key figures.

Norcross, a former Democratic National Committee member and one-time head of the Camden County Democratic Party, has been an influential figure in state politics. The indictment alleges that Norcross and others got property rights along the Camden waterfront and collected millions of dollars in state-backed tax credits.

The indictment alleges that Norcoss and his associates “used their political influence to tailor New Jersey economic development legislation to their preferences. After the legislation was enacted in September 2013, members and associates of the Norcross Enterprise conspired to, and did, extort and coerce others to obtain — for certain individuals and business entities — properties and property rights on the Camden, New Jersey waterfront and associated tax incentive credits.”

That’s on the heels of the federal prosecution of Sen Bob Menendez.

It would seem to me the way to go about highlighting this is not that he lied about his age on a dating app aimed at one-night stands.

It’s that the family-values Christian is on a dating app at all, and therefore, like all conservatives, he’s a liar.

A decision may be evil and destructive to our nation, but if your goal is to gain wealth and power without any concern for the future, it may be intelligent, especially if any negative outcomes won’t affect you personally. Intelligence is an attribute that is separate from decency, compassion, morality.

Marginal rates versus effective rate. The effective rate is lower than all of the rates cited in that graphic, but it’s also important to note that the corporate giveaway didn’t goose the economy. It merely accelerated the richest Americans getting richer, while everyone else tread water as their tax cuts were a fraction of what was provided, and the tax cuts for the middle class expire after 2025.

A cannister of restaurant-grade Splenda. (tm). 3 tablespoons=1 cup of sugar.

The reason for that is because since the pandemic started, artificial sweetener has been harder and harder to get here. Like many things, it got diverted by capitalists for larger profit margins in cities (then blamed on inflation, supply chains, Democrats, &c).

All artificial sweetener became unavailable a few months ago. (Same goes for many other products.)
