| 2019 (reality): C. R. Who? |
26.2.19 20:02 | | Twitter says this will be my 28,000th tweet! Thanks as always to the hundred or so real human beings who follow me AND the 1900 or so bots. I still love you all. |
26.2.19 19:50 | | RT : Very sad to hear about the passing of Mark Hollis. Was honoured to have worked with him, and thank you for making one of the greatest albums of all time, Spirit of Eden. A true inspiration and visionary. RIP. |

| This Friday on Across The Board with DJ SLT on KFAI, I am presenting four hours of Mark Hollis, Talk Talk and branch acts sprouted from that tree and I *probably* won't even cry (much) (on the air). The funny thing is it was VERY easy to fill all the time and now I'm trying to decide on what to take out. Expect to hear a LOT of things you've never heard before. 2am to 6am! 90.3 and online at KFAIorg. Enormous thanks to DJ SLT for graciously volunteering the time for my audio therapy! |

25.2.19 16:47 | | I saw the tweets about Mark Hollis and had to go back to bed. I'm devastated. I've probably shared this article before but it's a good one. I always held out hope that he'd re-emerge with something new and it sucks that I can't feel that any more. (Noisey: How to Disappear Completely: When Musicians Retire For Good) |

23.2.19 04:00 | | I just watched an extremely mediocre "Tonight Show Starring Johnny Carson" episode from 1981 on Antenna TV - the guests were Suzanne Pleshette and Dick Cavett - and honestly, I've never felt more like an adult. All that was missing was me falling asleep in the middle of it. |

| I know Republicans aren't discussed much around here (except for folks talking about how much they suck), but I think this is an interesting story - the potential of William Weld staging a vanity campaign for the GOP 2020 nomination for president. His party affiliation has been pretty fluid, going back to his support of Barack Obama over John McCain in 2008 and most recently he was on the Libertarian ticket as Veep nominee in 2016. It'll be interesting to see if/how many primary votes he could peel away from President Trump - and if other "prominent" Republicans have the guts to defy the RNC and launch their own primary challenges. Heck, I'd probably caucus for him if our caucuses hadn't been neutered in favour of a beefier Minnesota primary. |

22.2.19 15:43 | | | Facebook has GOT to do something about the rampant ticket scamming and fraud that inevitably pops up on EVERY concert event page I care to follow. Surely with all their AI they should be able to notice Nigerians and Kenyans (for example) changing their cover and profile photos to white senior citizens, changing their names to American sounding ones while their usernames DON'T change, then post requests for likes and DMs or PMs for their concert tickets which they suddenly unfortunately can't use (because 1. they don't exist and 2. they're thousands of miles from the arena) oh and if you see the word "kindly" in any of these statuses that's a GIANT RED FLAG. If Facebook CAN'T do it with AI, could they just pay me to run around and delete these losers? Any Facebook recruiters out there? ;-) |

21.2.19 16:19 | | Since it had been four weeks since my interview, I followed up with (I can now tell you it was) Allianz Life this morning with an email asking if I was still under consideration for their KCS Analyst position. They called me back shortly after noon letting me know I wasn't the right fit. I'm kinda bummed! I also wonder if they couldn't have told me this way earlier. I think I knew this was coming, though...I'd already sent out two more cover letters and resumes to try again with US Bank and Medtronic. Also, I'd still like to try to talk to somebody at Oracle about one of their open reqs if you know happen to know anybody there OR know somebody who knows somebody? Better news soon! |
