    Billy Strings & Co. Live and Up Close

    Bluegrass does NOT sound right when played on a stage through 100K watts into an arena. It DOES sound right when the players surround a single central microphone in a small room with tight acoustics. It sounds even MORER righterer when the players are world class barn burners on a mission...

    Watch this...

    ...and think about what it will mean societally when video and photographic "proof" will cease to exist as a categorical thing. When every type of video from security cam footage, to reporter footage, to dashcam footage, to police bodycam footage must be "lab tested" to determine authenticity...

    Perfecto Perfection

    I read somewhere that a cigar factory's best rollers are assigned the most difficult shapes, and they take a lot of pride in it. Having smoked a Padron 1926 in the Perfecto shape last night, I now totally "get" how well a cigar CAN be made. Absolutely perfect draw, and the ash held the cigar's...

    When Was Bracken Flake Last Produced?

    I have a rectangular tin with no stickers, stamps, or date ID of any kind. Wondering what the minimum age of it could be. ❓ ❓ ❓

    Here, Kitty Kitty

    Some mountain bikers in California were riding up a rural(ish) mountain(ish) road while filming their trip (of course) with a cell phone. They went past this patch-o-scrub --- ..and as soon as they did, this slid out of the tangle and started following them with nom nom on its mind ---...

    Feedback Loop Disintegration, Anyone?

    Pipes & Cigars (the PA outfit) is Stalker Creepy...

    Hm. I've never, ever, not once, at any time or in any capacity bought any sort of product from them. Yesterday, though, a hardcopy catalog appeared in my mailbox with my full contact info printed on it including a computer-printed 12-character customer number. I'm in their system. wtf? Not...

    No Wonder the Aliens are Content to Watch Instead of Invade

    A local (to me) example illustrates the situation perfectly. A high profile and respected "foodie" news operation called the Food Network recently published a list of what they thought was the best pizza restaurant in every state in the USA. But the winners of both Kansas and Missouri have...
