In case you didn't realize just how incestuous California politics can be, City Journal in a feature on California's new governor, Gavin Newsom, reveals his ties to the Brown family:
"Now, new California governor Gavin Newsom has ascended to office enjoying something of an “extended-family” relationship with the Browns. In 1943, businessman William Newsom, Gavin’s grandfather, helped Pat Brown win his race for San Francisco district attorney. In 1960, Governor Pat Brown awarded the concession for the Squaw Valley Winter Olympics to Newsom and John Pelosi, father-in-law of House Speaker Nancy Pelosi. In 1975, new governor Jerry Brown appointed another William Newsom, the son of Pat Brown’s pal, to a judgeship in Placer County, and in 1978, Brown appointed the same Newsom to the state Court of Appeal."
Now, William's son is governor of California, succeeding Jerry Brown.
And, lest we forget, Kamala Harris began her political career during or shortly after having an extra-marital affair with the California Assembly's "Speaker for Life," Willie Brown (no relation to Jerry), who appointed her to well-paying positions on two state boards.

Tybee, Georgia.
In the decades that followed, the Tybee bomb lay pretty much forgotten. But forty years later, along came Lieutenant Colonel Derek Duke, USAF (retired), who had the odd habit of chasing lost nukes. Duke, then an instructor for commercial airline pilots, was at an air force reunion in Charleston in 1998, hoping to meet the navigator of the B-47 that nuked the chickens. But when the navigator failed to show, Duke went online to learn more. That’s when he discovered the Tybee bomb.
They were never happy to begin with

A lot of laptop-musician pieces are just riffs, and not full melodies.
Buy we can still enjoy a good one.

I though it was dogma to always believe the woman, since women never, ever, ever, pinky swears, lie about sexual assault?
