    @jon-nyc that’s super interesting! Is it real?? I mean, I assume it is, but some of those words are particularly surprising.

    Link to video I understand they have to cover this, and in fairness I saw what it said, and then skipped over it. But this is only the surface layer. Of course, this woman is deranged. The point is that it was almost certainly an attempted hit job. I have followed these crimes (i.e murders) in this industry starting with the killing of Tupac Shakur. It took me years to solve his murder to my satisfaction. In fact, I put the final puzzle pieces together very recently. The context of this deranged woman's crime is much more clear to me. I want to wait until more facts emerge before saying anything else. I'm relatively certain that I know who set this up but at this time I don't want to go out in a limb. I predict that the truth will come out and many people will be surprised. This was a terrible crime against a very significant artist, and it sucks.

    The Active brand. Pretty sure we had the Dirty labs one before but never paused the washer to give the enzymes longer to work. I do use the Dirty labs dishwasher powder and that's been working well.

    I’m glad it went well! It’s demanding and exciting to be in a group where expectations are set at a high level, or unusual parameters are set. I’m recalling my own college choir days, although half the time I was pressed into the role of accompanist. There’s so much great choral music.

    Leave it on, you may yet be proved right that he is dead. He has been notably off stage. Especially compared to the theatre of Trump

    Speaking of which, I had to charge my phone charger at my secret place for doing that last night. I've mostly stopped eating sugar. I have/ had a sugar tooth. I took a notion to go to the convenience store. I spent $3.21 on an X-Large fountain soda and one creme filled donut with chocolate icing. As if to prove the point, I actually got sick. Boy, when you stop eating this stuff and then you eat it, your body lets you know about it.

    South Korean cars were a revelation to me. I've always liked Japanese cars. I can remember every Honda Civic from the 1st generation 1973 cvcc to my 7th generation hatchback. The 4th generation was my favorite but I didn't own one. I wish the timing had worked. I can remember the 1st generation Accord. My 1997 Accord was arguably the best car I've owned. I can remember the first Toyota Tercel. I can remember every Japanese brand's small truck. Etc. Then Korean cars came along and had a poor reputation. Then they got better and fast. My 3rd generation Hyundai Accent was a tank. I remember being surprised at some point in Hawaii when about 60% of the cars on the road suddenly turned into Hyundais and and Kias. I can't wait to own this one.

    https://share.google/dNvjYz4fQwzA6aRJg New favorite. Listing price is impossible. Have only glanced at the carrying costs. Sill, the market is on a downhill slide. What do you think about this one?
