to win another Super Bowl. Green Bay, the team that is locally owned….the small town NFL football team that has been in the mix for the playoffs for quite awhile. Just saying…….although, I would love if Joe Burrow and the Bengals win it all. 👏🏻 👏🏻 👏🏻

And war is really all that will remain
Would giving(up) ground be insane?

You say giving up ground is insane
But destruction and death is also insane
Might be safer to compromise (anyway) in Ukraine

Have you seen “Dr. Strangelove”? Is his performance in “Being There” better than that?

understated.

Being There is a 1979 American satire film directed by Hal Ashby. ... The screenplay won the British Academy Film Award for Best Screenplay and the Writers Guild of America Award for Best Comedy Adapted from Another Medium.

Ginger is lovely, but chocolate is to die for.

And double chocolate is to die for twice!

They play astoundingly good, well-written, soulful Southwestern Rock (Please don't call it 'country'.)

One of their best: "Nada".

I hadn't heard of this band before and I've never heard the song. I absolutely KNOW it's not country....

We (when in Texas) used to call some music Southern Rock:

I tend to dislike the term "Southern Rock", because for me, it conjures up images of Lynyrd Skynyrd's Confederate flag.

Roger Clyne and his guys are very progressive. I've seen them in concert about ten times, and they're always a joy.
