Quoted from Drongo_Bum

I listen to classical music and Steely Dan, as all crusty old white guys ought to.



Crusty old white guys ought to be listening to Jazz (and Sabrina Carpenter like obscure musicians).

Quoted from Don

NOW you tell me this?



A quick perusal of those titles reveals a lot of werewolf stories but apparently few or none about Roland the Thompson gunner. I totally would have written about Roland the Thompson gunner.

Hmmm.  Well, the challenge was based on Werewolves of London...   Interesting song.  Surprised I hadn't hear it before.

My God That Is Impressive!  I mean, WOW!  

Now it's 10:45PM and I'm watching a Ukrainian Yodeler.

On another note, where are the moderators on this site?  This thread has veered off topic and a writer's script thread has been hijacked.

A strong word is needed with the establishment.

My entire Spotify Wraps Top 10 last year was Sabrina Carpenter, influence of my 20yr old daughter and 25yr old son, I was very proud of it, they sort of rolled their eyes

What's up with Spotify these days?

Ten years ago I had their freebie player on an iPad but then one day the app quit working, and a notice appeared saying from now on I would have to pay them to use it.

Gonna go out on a limb and guess that's still the case.

YouTube ftw.

Plus, I still buy CDs. Japan has an abundance of stores that sell new-and-used CDs, DVDs, books, magazines, videogames and all the other essentials we need for basic survival.
