Turn off the ceiling fans - they're too loud (at the Continental Club)
and...
It's too loud at this outdoor venue close to Sixth Street, so I'm leaving the stage (at the Mohawk).
He's right about it not being in 4/4, but he's still a delicate freaking flower.
Yeah I booked him a couple of times and it was pretty intimidating. He likes to play quiet; if the bar makes too much noise, he's out before he starts.
Read the comments in The Stranglers' Golden Brown, possibly derived from QMS' Silver and Gold, probably derived from Brubeck.
Also, Jonathan Richman's "Walter Johnson," which someone at a concert was trying to clap along with and he stopped and said, "It ain't 4:4" She didn't get it so someone told her "no clapping!"
Atomic clocks, combined with precise astronomical measurements, have revealed that the length of a day is suddenly getting longer, and scientists donât know why.
This has critical impacts not just on our timekeeping, but also things like GPS and other technologies that govern our modern life.
Over the past few decades, Earthâs rotation around its axisâwhich determines how long a day isâhas been speeding up. This trend has been making our days shorter; in fact, in June 2022 we set a record for the shortest day over the past half a century or so.
But despite this record, since 2020 that steady speedup has curiously switched to a slowdownâdays are getting longer again, and the reason is so far a mystery.
Ice caps melting, the water slings toward the equator. Next!
Just like they said we were spinning faster due to all the dams at latitudes closer to 45 than 0, well we've taken care of that!

You're still doing the half, right? Cripes, the most I've ever done in one stretch was 14. Talked to a guy a couple of weeks ago who'd run a high-altitude 50-miler in the Big Horns the week before that. I'm pretty sure he was certifiable.
He'd HAVE to be!!! Geez! Yeah, I have no desire to ever do a whole marathon. Half is plenty. And I finally created a tried and true playlist that really motivates me to keep on keepin' on at all the right times/miles! Thanks for being one of my inspirations!

THERE you are! Disregard that call in Comments............so tomorrow is my high miles day before the "taper" down to the marathon. Twelve miles. Last weekend I hit a wall as I approached 11 (the limit for that day).
12 is damn near the entire HALF. I'll check in with the ol' body and if I hit another wall, I'll keep it at 11. I'll save the damage for the real deal.
I KNEW YOU COULD DO IT!!!
