2025 - Why is it that "everything is broken", everything is so darn hard, everything is so 'mixed up', so SNAFU & FUBARed, and I forgot the other one... but it will happen in 5 or 10 minutes.
Just glad 2026 is just around the corner. Hope it's 'fresh' start to a new year. I need a break from this nonsense. Like - really.

I'll put $10 on The Who in that contest.
And you would win. The Guess Who, theorizing that they came first, tried to get The Who to change their name. Pete Townsend's response, "Bugger Off!"

No fists thrown. And eventually, the "two" became good friends!
So music really does, "soothe the beast". It's supposed to...with "classical" being the best for plants.

Being a fan of The Who and liking most Guess Who songs, my money is on The Who.No fists thrown. And eventually, the "two" became good friends!

Q
Just like animals, I expose plants to as many different genres as possible. I'm a firm believer that only one genre is not good for any living being and the more variety, the better. I'm pretty sure a certain singer named Robert would agree. Anyone see what I did there?
That was clever. I also think music is what keeps Neil Young. Tada.

"Resolutions" changed over time with the newer version appearing in1813 Boston newspaper where it became..."intent".
However, some think the Babylonians might have been the first to bring in the New Year Celebration.
Anyone making any this year...or resolving not to make any?
For me just the one...to SLOW DOWN!

I just made a resolution! I'm going to start telling jokes in sign language. This way, I can be sure no one has heard them before.
I barrowed that from a guy I follow on IG.
So here it is, New Year's Day and I decided to go out for a walk.
There is a surprisingly large number of people out. Most of them appear to be mid 40s and younger. ?????? Has partying all night on NYE and sleeping off the hangover all day fallen out of favor? If so, good! Of course, their presence begs the question, where are they going? There aren't many places open today. The biggest surprise was the young man who drove past me on Winter Street. I wanted to shake his hand. He was driving safely, a little below the speed limit on the slick street. He was also listening to music at a reasonable volume which is self evident by the fact that I didn't hear it until he was right next to me. He also had his subwoofers tuned properly, as in thumping instead of throbbing.
Well, if you own a pickup truck with 4WD and a plow, money is falling from the sky.

I hope 2026 is a good year for everyone!
Is it really possible that in a family of 4, ALL FOUR people have ADHD and are not taking their Adderall?
One of the reasons why I frequent Panera is because it's USUALLY a quiet, peaceful atmosphere. Not today!
The place is pretty empty and yet, this loud, nervous family feels the need to sit across the isle from me, instead of far away. Yes, I was here first. It would have been nice of them to go to another location, preferably the new one that just opened on Mars.
So, paychomom, psychodad their 2 psychobrats are constantly getting up, getting drinks, sitting down... oops! Gotta use the restroom! More drinks, more restroom, repeat, repeat, repeat.... all the while, all 4 of them speaking at 150 dB and ten times faster than any death metal singer can sing.
In my day and my sons' day, this type of behavior would never have been tolerated. The older of my 2 sons, who is 36, has ADHD, but he always knew better than to try to play that card.

I guess they are all feeding into each other's obsessive-compulsive disorders.
Even in a busy restaurant, one of those families can ruin everything.
