… not even me, ha ha. There were really only two songs I liked … Look at Yourself and July morning. As I’ve waited a year for this, plus it’s 1151 right now, it seems an appropriate song to play … right now.

“Uriah Heep were part of the early 1970s rock scene and have been referred to as major pioneers of the hard rock, heavy metal and progressive rock genres.

The band have sold over 40 million albums worldwide, with over 4 million sales in the US, where their best-known songs include “Look at Yourself”, “July Morning”, “Easy Livin'”, “Come Away Melinda”, “The Wizard”, “Sunrise”, “Lady in Black”, and “Gypsy”.

They also maintain a significant following and perform at arena-sized venues in the Balkans, Germany, Japan, the Netherlands, Russia and Scandinavia.“

Different genres have different beat patterns, different rhythms … this was the start of prog plus metal, before it divided into tribes … until now most kids were of the same tribe … the radio tribe … that is, whatever the DJ was playing. I was never much into prog, finding Floyd and similar resistible. As for rock and metal … massive egos, weird suits, a screaming demigirl with long hair at the mic … I just felt there were better genres.

Nor did I go near pop, glam, that sort of contrived thing. By about 1974, our little tribe were starting to get into American southern rock, the Doors, Spencer Davis group, Free, Bad Company, some Zeppeling, definitely Yardbirds … different direction. Albums became more the thing.

(0337) Just spent an hour gathering from X, having awoken too early. Seems to be with DAD too .. he. seems to have dropped his drop super early. Real news was sparse, really had to scour to find and then much was assertion with no receipts. The redacting is becoming more difficult … and that’s before countering the trolls.

There’s one other factor. Unless I get a second sleep in now, I’ll be in bother because I’ve a package arriving, plus I need to restock food. If I drop off now, I imagine I can be back around 7:30 a.m. (0518) Could not get back to sleep. (0551)

2. It’s certainly a sign of the forces of evil taking over

The analogy for me is the LORT story and film … where the baddies took over the Shire and what did they immediately do? Cut down the big tree that had brought joy to so many, plus replaced distinctive architecture with military style barracks living. We can can also look at London, where eyesore excesses have gone up which some clowns found modern and exciting, like a Tracy Emin picture. The result is the sheer uglification of London.

a) France will hold its presidential election on April 18 and May 2, 2027, with up to 50 candidates expected to compete for the first open race since Emmanuel Macron cannot seek a third term.

All contenders must collect at least 500 signatures from elected officials nationwide to qualify—a threshold intended to filter out frivolous candidates but long criticised by parties such as the National Rally and the hard Left as a mechanism that favours establishment figures.

b) France. Euthanasia: in search of an impossible consensus. Far from being a resounding victory for the progressive camp, the vote on euthanasia will leave a bitter aftertaste.

c) German Government unveils 2027 Budget with over €200B new debt. The German welfare state is becoming unaffordable as debt servicing alone is set to surpass €80 billion by 2030.

From the time of Podesta reports on N.O. till now, there has been evidence that these people are vastly inhuman in every way, as if they’ve lost any trace of humanity. It can only stem from something by nature vile, plus too powerful for any humans. We’re not talking just “baddies”, are we, nor Pol Pot nor Heydrich level … we’re talking beyong obscene beyond … but for all “her” faults, the human brain simply cannot comprehend how a known figure such as Killery could stoop to thses things all the same.

Naturally, all sorts of defences can be made … oh, the girl was an actress, oh it was a put up job to ruin noble deminrats blah blah blah. We had plenty of confirmations at N.O., a few here too.

The human brain can take in the Moose savages and what they do … but Clinton and all those? Air Miles? The wall’s too high.

 

Bit of an impasse just now … not a lot of news about, lazy sort of day … I do have items for later. Hmmmm … let’s have this:

 

Wiki:

“Years later the baby girl, now a grown woman called Nina, returns home for the reading of Phoebe’s will. She is accompanied by two detectives, Doc and Jack. Nina discovers Rachel has gone mad, and Ralph and Edward are resentful to her. The will goes missing which means the estate goes to Ralph, Edward and Rachel…”

Well there ya go.
