we had tons of acorns. the closest neighbor my own age was steven across the street, the catholic school kid. he put rocks in the snowballs, and threw pebbles sometimes instead of acorns.

Hiya👋Kidz.
never committed or purchased any Greg Kihn albums (which I now realize was a misstep!). Too snobbily preoccupied with Elvis Costello, Dave Edmunds, Rockpile, Nick Lowe, Tom Petty, Andy Fairweather Low, John Cooper Clarke, Doll by Doll, & that other name game tomfoolery genius Harry Knillssonn, etc etc.

Nazis took power in 1933. A very dense frightening and informative book is the Rise and Fall of the Thjrd Reich by William Shirer. He was a reporter in Germany through the rise and was given access to the records after the war. If you want to understand the current populism it is essential reading.

Was just chatting with a fellow John Cale enthusiast, yet they had never heard his dark epic beauty that is “Hedda Gabler” 7:53min… ¿Originally from the ‘Animal Justice’ ep circa 1977?
