The last time i saw fiddler on the roof was about 25 years ago. Live, open air performance ballet in the roman ampheatre at Fiesole...

It was wonderful and ruined ever watching it again.

And now for something religious:

It's not that remarkable, really, because Jesus himself was very adamant and stern we must submit to his genocidal dad and believe he is the way, the truth and light and how we get into his tyrannical father's kingdom (and it's very authoritarian in this kingdom and freedom and liberty are not accepted) and without him it's something like eternal fire, eternal death, or something that's supposed to be bad (he wasn't consistent on this) when you don't believe as Jesus instructed.

Look: Lost California dog turns up 14 months later in Kansas - UPI.com

Dec. 19 (UPI) -- A dog who went missing from his owner's California house is on his way home after turning up 14 months later in Kansas -- about 1,600 miles away.

Sandra O'Neill said her German shepherd mix, Zeppelin, would sometimes escape from home to visit a local construction site, but he would usually return on his own in the evening if she didn't find him there.

She said Zeppelin failed to return home one night in October 2021.

There was no trace of the beloved pooch until 14 months later, when a Louisburg, Kan., woman brought a dog into the Wildcat Veterinary Clinic, explaining she had found the canine on her property the previous evening.

The clinic scanned the dog for microchip and he was identified as the long-lost Zeppelin.

O'Neill told KTXL-TV she was shocked to hear he was in Kansas.

The veterinary clinic was able to find a volunteer, Mary Hastings, who was preparing to drive back to California after visiting her daughter in Kansas.

The clinic said in a Facebook post that Zeppelin and Hastings departed for the 1,600-mile drive on Sunday, expecting to be home by Christmas.

So, it appears that Zeppelin will be led back home. A led Zeppelin.

Watch: Trailer hauling 6,000 pounds of onions catches fire on Florida highway - UPI.com

Dec. 19 (UPI) -- Firefighters responded to a Florida highway where a blown-out tire caused a trailer loaded with thousands of pounds of onions to catch fire.

Ocala Fire Rescue said in a Facebook post that multiple crews responded to a report of a freight vehicle fire on Interstate 75, just south of exit 354.

The crews arrived to find an open trailer being hauled by a pickup truck was "fully engulfed in flames."

The driver, who had exited the vehicle, told firefighters the blaze was sparked when one of the truck's tires blew out.

The trailer had been carrying six cargo bins loaded with a total of about 6,000 pounds of onions.

The flames were extinguished about 3 minutes after firefighters arrived on the scene. No one was injured in the incident, the department said.

6000 lbs. of onions up in smoke.

I think I like Heart's cover of Immigrant Song more. Not entirely sure, as I've only heard it once and it was live, but it was great.

I don't believe I've ever listened to the "solo" Kiss albums from the members when Ace and Peter where still in it (compared to those like the actual solo albums from Ace Frehley).

Journey is great.

All non-American members who don't really know Journey are missing out.

I realized I would much rather more books by Vladimir Ulyanov than read Dawkins again. Seriously, claiming Kant was an atheist is just beyond absurd.
At least with Ulyanov (I keep getting Lennon and Lenin mixed up) I can learn every last boring detail of early 20th Century Russian Industry and better my chances on Jeopardy.

My phone woke me up at ~2:30 this morning because of the 6.+ quake in Humboldt County over 200 miles away. My watch split my night's sleep into before, an hour awake and then sleep resumed. I'll be investigating how to make the alerts more selective.

The cool thing about machines is you can even blame them for what's your own fault, and for the next 5 years, they don't speak back about it.

And now for something religious:

Chances are, we have no idea what Jesus said. Everything we have is a copy of a copy of a copy with all associated errors, rewrites, mistakes and influences of those dealing with it...see council of nicaea, council of trent, council of....etc. etc. ect.

Yeah. I'm not sure anyone knows what truly happened. We can just form ideas. Or in the case of some - just say "Meh."

But in your case they make an exception...15 minutes max is about how much that can tolerate you...and that may be being a bit too generous
