I just love this couple. They are so genuinely touching:

“There’s never any election fraud – except when there is”
• Many are aware of the significant/ historic records and gains in Trump’ 2024 election victory.
• Have been looking at some other historical compares/ trends – not in the headlines – and turned my attention to the 2020 v. 2024 Bellwether County results (see link below).
• Trump won most of the Bellwether Counties in 2024 – like he did in 2016 & 2020 – and just like that the Bellwether Counties went back to being an accurate predictor of which candidate would win.
• In 2020 Biden lost almost every Bellwether County – which collectively have predicted the winner of the presidential race correctly since 1980, some longer – and yet the public was told there were no indications of fraud in 2020.
• This year may have been ‘To Big to Rig’, or maybe some of the 2020 cheaters could not do that again in 2024, or something else.
Reading a new biography of Antoine de St-Exupery…In addition to St-Exupery’s literary work, his interaction with local tribesmen in North Africa, and his love affairs, the book extensively discusses the courageous work in reliable airmail service that was pioneered by St-Ex and his friends. Reminded me of a post I wrote several years ago and just updated & reposted: Lighted Airways and the Radio Range.
Yeah, I like the MerchantOfAlba couple and even that song. Noticed some weeks back that when I’m using the Epic browser the videos don’t work at neo blog. Epic has an encrypted proxy and when it is on then the videos don’t work…
Must have been around 1977 that song appeared on the air. Overpraised and overplayed.

Reading the Billboard 100 for 1977 is a reminder of how much that is popular in the moment is forgotten or best forgotten.

Some, maybe still of interest (or, maybe, just nostalgia):

Sayer is still performing! Had no idea he was British. Looks good for his age. Still has the curly mop of hair. Wonder if his falsetto is still strong?
