Black Sabbath is once again doing their “final” tour with an LA date in September I think. Never seen them--would be a show to consider.
And speaking of music, been watching HBO’s Vinyl which is a series about the music industry in New York during the 70’s. The show is kinda bleeh, but the soundtrack is wonderful. Been especially happy that they’ve dug out at least three Mott the Hoople tunes to include.
Taxes are still in process. The stumbling block is with Mrs Sven’s stock and retirement stuff--since her company moved overseas, it’s created a whole bunch of new forms to consider.
Happy 2 of 7, Sven! Here’s something inspired by your ancestral past -- which, it’s my understanding that I can thank the, um, aggressive courting techniques of those same ancestors for my (many generations later) red hair. So, you know, thanks, cousin!
That sucks about your tax complications. Between the bastards on the Ways and Means Committee making things so complicated due to generations of carve-outs to reward graft-givers and this Administration’s fabulous policies which have chased so many businesses out of the country: Moar. Esso. Stations.
BrideO’MineK’s Viking birfday dirge is already an earworm; dayum, gingers are evil.
Happy Birfday VII/7 to MyLittleLambiePieK and two/sept to Sven!!1!
Now Sven can make omelets…like a Viking!
Well that’s a pretty cool frying pan. Like.
Thanks for the bday wishes, guys. And I know that X has one coming up too, but can’t remember the date.
A blessed Sabbath, Gerbil Nation!
Good morning, Sven!
Happy birthday, seven of 7, Brenda!
Happy birthday, II of 7, Sven!
Thanks, Paddy.

Huh. And apparently it is confirmed that Axl Rose is taking over for Brian Johnson for the remainder of the AC/DC 2016 tour. Interesting.

Thanks! Good advice throughout!
BTW, per the song — always pillage then burn. It would just go badly the other way around.
Hai, Birfday II Boy and Paddy!

Brenda, sweetheart…we should get one of these for the grandkids.
