Lyric Fragment Quiz AnswersNever got around to providing the answers to this quiz, but I guess George, Morpheus, Michelle and other readers got almost all of them. Still, just to make it official, here are the songs: 1. "US inflation" Wall of Voodoo, Mexican Radio 2. "put an arrow" Ratt, Round and Round 3. "take me bottom to top" Donna Summer's Dim All the Lights, which I thought was just a sort of sweet song about romancin' and dancin', but nope, turns out the lyrics are pretty dirty. 4. "elders of the gentle race" Led Zep, Kashmir 5. "cold in the gutter" I don't think anyone got this-- TLC, Waterfalls. 6. "empty by definition" -- Scritti Politti, A Perfect Way 7. "a trace of/hypocrisy" -- Extreme, Rest in Peace (Make Love Not War) 8. "thick and juicy" -- Baby Got Back by Sir Mix-a-lot. I don't think anyone got this, which surprised me. 9. "wild-eyed boys" -- Thin Lizzy, The Boys are Back in Town 10. "you could sex her" -- Young MC, Bust a Move 11. "Dealin' in multiplication" -- Eddie Grant, Electric Avenue 12. "this issue's gone" -- J. Geils Band, Centerfold 13. "I just drove by" -- Vanilla Ice, Ice Ice Baby 14. "feedin' me soup" -- Another one no one got. I'm not big on hip hop, but man, when I heard this song six or seven years ago, I cracked up laughing. It's Positive K, I Got a Man. 15. "ass like John McEnroe" -- House of Pain, Jump Around 16. "your price for flight" (CHANGED: Was "desperately pondered." Decided that was too obscure. The new lyric is for a new song entirely.) Nightranger, Sister Christian (way easy). The old lyric was from Lovefool by... um, the Cranberries? I forget. 17. "virginal brides" -- Bela Lugosi's Dead by Bauhaus 18. "lost my light" -- Tainted Love by Soft Cell. 19. "your exclusive company" (HINT: Spoken word part.) -- Popular by Nada Surf 20. "act like an imbecile" Safety Dance, Men Without Hats 21. "shoot it in" -- Relax, Frankie Goes to Hollywood 22. "great big world" -- I was suprised that no one seemed to get this. It's from American Girl by Tom Petty. After all, it was a great big world... 23. "subtle innuendoes" or "subtle innuendo" Goody Two Shoes by Adam Ant 24. "raw like sushi" Ahem. Rico Suave, by Geraldo, or whatever his name was. 25. "little bit terrified" Total Eclipse of the Heart, Bonnie Tyler. Written by Jim Steinman. 26. "tuning in on you" -- Video Killed the Radio Star, the Buggles 27. "eight by twelve four-bit" -- King of the Road by Roger Miller 28. "hating you for loving me" -- Berlin, The Metro 29. "host of holy horrors" -- Rush, Freewill 30. "oatmeal lumpy" -- the Humpty Dance by the Digital Underground posted by Ace at 09:23 PM

FAA fines SpaceX $633K for acting without its permission "These fines therefore are simply because FAA management has hurt feelings because SpaceX wouldn't wait for it to twiddle its thumbs for a few more weeks. The fines also suggest that FAA management is either being pressured to hinder SpaceX's commercial operations by higher ups in the White House, or that management itself is trying to exert more power over the company, for apparently very petty reasons."

New book edited by Michael Walsh and featuring essays by Glenn Reynolds, Kurt Schlichter, and others: Against the Corporate Media: Forty-Two Ways the Press Hates You
Michael Walsh asked me to contribute a chapter to this book. I bailed out when I couldn't find a new angle on topic. But Walsh found a bunch of writers who do have new things to say. I'll review the book soon. Definitely consider buying it.
Supposedly a Twitter account called "The Black Insurrectionist" has a signed affidavit from an anonymous ABC "News" staffer, alleging that Muir and Kamala's sorority sister exchanged questions behind the scenes. I don't know if this is true. He says he's keeping the name of the staffer anonymous, so there will be no way to verify it even if he publishes it. Shrug. It's not much but a claim.
Forgotten 80s Mystery Click: Soulful Stalker Division
"I gave you silk suits, Gucci handbags and blue diamonds. I gave you things you couldn't even pronounce! But now I can't give you nothing but advice. Cause you're still young, yeah, you're young. And you're gonna find somebody like me one of these days Until then, you know what you gotta do?

Now get on outta here. Scat! Don't touch that coat..."
A tale of two stories about Haiti. "When Trump was president, the media rushed to push the false story of Border Patrol agents 'whipping' Haitian migrants. When Democrats are in power, they rush to debunk the story about Haitian migrants eating pets in Ohio." [Buck]
From 1985: Is this the most obscure Forgotten 80s Mystery Click ever?
Another scratched or scribbled note Hint: The band's name is a reference to their hometown of Niagara Falls, Canada. Two handsome men in overcoats Deception right in front of me Or jealous fantasy Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa Something that sets you apart It tightens your grip on my heart Don't ever let it go I thought Donny Iris was super-obscure, but then like 20 commenters told me "Oh I've always been a big Donny Iris fan, he was huge in Pittsburgh (or wherever)." So maybe people will tell me "I still play this album" or something.
This AI short "movie" is creepy and a little scary
Mind blown: "Adult" and "adolescent" are the same word!
So "adolescent" is basically the progressive form of the verb adolscere, to grow, to mature, so an adolescent is maturing. Adult, from adoltus, is the part tense of the verb, which means, "matured." I looked it up because I started to wonder why these near-opposite terms looked so much alike. Nostalgia for you all. Autumn...
James Earl Jones has died at age 93
Often called "the black Brian Dennehy," he famously played the voice of Yaphet Kotto and once donkey-punched a sea monster
Update: Now Michigan's Democrat-controlled Supreme Court reverses the Appeals Court, demands that RFKJr.'s name be kept on the ballot despite withdrawing from the race and filing to remove it. The Democrat vote-rigging machine is in high gear now, boy.
