That is one amazing video and an utterly amazing musician. I had no idea such an instrument exists. Really, you kind of blew up my musical world. That definitely lands on my Things That Went Right Today list. Thanks!!

I name for expected performance. A remote server named Arnie should be strong, reliable and always come back. A music server named Elvis serves music with elements from multiple genre and not mind being told what to do by someone who know

I'm not sure that it is really similar. I would translate "Wer macht hat recht" to something more like "the creator knows best" or "the creator gets to choose". "History is written by the winners.&qu

I'm not sure how one would desensationalize Donald Trump. For my needs, 1440 handled it just fine. Title 42 affects an international audience, Santos charges are newer news than the old news spouted so emphatically at the Town Hall a

Oh my gosh, I've never heard of these and you're right, they do look like a wonderful way to "travel" if you can't otherwise. Thank you so much for sharing. Edit: Punctuation

I think you are on to something with the need for combining compassion for all parties with nearly every emotion in a relationship. If she wasn't always like this maybe she is feeling now like she is in over her head and doesn't
