Crazy Workplace
Talked to Babs about what happened last week. Babs was livid. And went to the union.

Sigh. I swear technology has made my working life more complicated. Not that I miss printing out numerous copies of things, and parceling them out to contractors - upon demand. That was a nightmare - much prefer sending the stuff as a link or email attachment.
Family
Speaking of technology...apparently they live stream funerals now. We are not live-streaming my father's funeral.

Don't mind me, I'm irritable. Can't think why.
COVID
Despite what people may think? It's still out there. ( Read more... )

On Twitter they asked who was my favorite iconic singer of all time? And I drew a blank. I honestly don't know.
IDK They all have their pluses and minuses.

[ETA: If you have HBO Max - Baz Lurham's Elvis film is being released to it on September 2. Which will keep me from buying it. Yeah. I'm glad I didn't do an impulse buy.]
Twitter also asked to rank favorite Beatles albums, which is impossible, but whatever.
Their ranking:
Rubber Soul (I've not heard of that album (I probably have it, and just don't know it's name on my MP3 player)
Revolver
Abbey Road
Sgt Pepper
For me?
Revolver
The White Album
Let it Be
Abbey Road
Sgt. Pepper
[But that's only because I've no idea what Rubber Soul is.]
They also asked which song was my favorite from the Doors.
"Light my Fire", but that's only because it's the only song I can remember outside of The End.
Somebody said it was impossible to choose between Steve Perry and Freddy Mercury...uhm, not for me, since I've no clue who Steve Perry is - he sounds familiar though, so I probably would recognize him if you told me.
Comic strips - favorites.
Calvin & Hobbes
For Better or Worse
Bloom County
Doonesbury
Kathy
Sigh, I miss newspaper comic strips. Some days I miss the 20th Century, in particular the 1990s and 80s.
