We really need to take the "send Julian to GwarBQ" model and fund raise sending you to a marriage counselor. If you're going to post about it incessantly, we might as well get you a listening ear that can help.

Yeah, I guess I'm mistaking "tens of people i talk to on a music message board on a regular basis" as casual friends rather than as strangers. I wonder if there are other board regulars who feel like they interact with message board strangers more than they do their actual friends?

had to fix that but…POTW material

and yes, yes they do

I enjoy listening to space's problems.  they're real, problems, that people have . . . sometimes mundane, but real.  I always am fas,cinated by people who clean their homes, before a maid comes over, to clean their homes.

you hire cleaning people to do the deep cleaning, not organizing your clutter
we do need an 'ask abby/savage love' type thread, not sure if Random…randomness is the place for domestic queries

So how do you convince your partner that it's ok to hire a cleaning service, even if it means removing a few other things from the budget?

A question I've asked many, many times. It's great to finally have an answer!

There's a void in the pattern.

god . . . I hate, LeBron's beard.

for the classic rawk haters:

Jimmy Buffett and the Eagles at Target Field: A timeline

Some great lines in there

9:05 — “Hey, you guys like killer guitar riffs?” Joe Walsh asks. “Inspired lyrics? Go fuck yourselves, we’re the Eagles!”
Nah, jk, Walsh introduces the band by saying, “How you doing? Great to be back here.”

9:18 — That moment is neutered from my memory by a guitar solo with all the excitement of a pair of pleated khaki pants. (Hutch…he gets you!)

10:34 — Man, these songs are long and tedious. This is like reading a footnote-heavy guide to Microsoft Excel, but with guitars.

I had originally put the 'ne’er-do-wells off the street' in there, but tried to keep it brief

So Dark Star Orchestra did a recreation of the 7/8/78 Grateful Dead Red Rocks show last Sunday at Red Rocks on the concert's 40th anniversary…..and sold the venue out!!!  9,500 strong.  Not bad for a cover band.

Funny.  I didn't either.
