♫♪♫ Set The Turntable Back To 1974....♫♪♫
For me, this is one of those songs that always gets turned up on the radio.....
"How Long" is a 1974 song by the British group Ace from their album Five-A-Side. It reached No. 3 in the US and Canadian charts, and No. 20 in the UK chart. Lead singer Paul Carrack composed the song upon discovering that bassist Terry Comer had been secretly working with other bands. Comer returned to Ace in time to play on the song.

Interesting Family Tree.... Posted by request from AP in Canada..
It appears this story gets censored... even though it's from 2017
Chrystia Freeland , appointed last week to be the new Canadian Foreign Minister, claims that her maternal family were the Ukrainian victims of Russian persecution, who fled their home in 1939, after Adolf Hitler and Josef Stalin agreed on a non-aggression pact and the division of Poland between Germany and the Soviet Union. She claims her mother was born in a camp for refugees before finding safe haven in Alberta, Canada. Freeland is lying.
The records now being opened by the Polish government in Warsaw reveal that Freeland’s maternal grandfather Michael (Mikhailo) Chomiak was a Nazi collaborator from the beginning to the end of the war. He was given a powerful post, money, home and car by the German Army in Cracow, then the capital of the German administration of the Galician region. His principal job was editor in chief and publisher of a newspaper the Nazis created. His printing plant and other assets had been stolen from a Jewish newspaper publisher, who was then sent to die in the Belzec concentration camp. During the German Army’s winning phase of the war, Chomiak celebrated in print the Wehrmacht’s “success” at killing thousands of US Army troops. As the German Army was forced into retreat by the Soviet counter-offensive, Chomiak was taken by the Germans to Vienna, where he continued to publish his Nazi propaganda, at the same time informing for the Germans on other Ukrainians. They included fellow Galician Stepan Bandera, whose racism against Russians Freeland has celebrated in print, and whom the current regime in Kiev has turned into a national hero.
At first, I thought it was Joe Bribem
A Kalifornia man was caught inside a Barnes and Noble store "sniffing" women. The young woman in the store was "creeped out" by this man that was getting a little too close for comfort. She took out her phone and began to film the man. Later, she posted the video of the incident on TikTok. Some people's kids, I swear.

Right or wrong, this U.S. Senator was brave enough to buck the "company line" in regards to COVID 19
Senator Ron Johnson of Wisconsin gave his opinion and elaborated on COVID and who and what he thought was behind the virus. He has since been lampooned by all of the major news outlets (aka Ministry of Propaganda) and suspended from YouTube for having and stating an alternate point of view. He has been labeled as kook and conspiracy theorist (ridicule is the second line of defense for liberals, the first being to yell RACIST). I had not heard anything about this until I saw a meme over at 90 Miles From Tyranny Then I started searching for this story and information pertaining to it is very hard to find. Below is basically what he said during an interview at FOX.
Below is what I found when I searched YouTube.
Give 'em hell Senator!
Lately, When I Have Time To Ponder Stuff, I Get To Thinking.... ETA
... What's it all for?
Why do we do what we do?
What is the meaning of our existence?
Sure some esoteric philosophical debates came come from this but I find myself thinking about
the possible reasons for 'us'.
What is a good book that I can listen to while commuting? I have read and listened to
"The Power of Now" and " The Subtle Art Of Not Giving a Fuck" for examples.
As I get older and life moves on, mortality comes to mind more often. More and more of our
family members and friends pass away and life goes on with in a few days. The sun still rises
and sets, the seasons change, the earth rotates about it's axis.
( If you believe it's not flat. ) 😁
Anyway, I'm not looking for religious or overly spiritual type reading. Maybe just something
that you read that really gave you pause or deeper thought or elicited an Aha moment.

ETA... wow... just wow. Thanks so far for all the suggestions. Some I have heard of , many not.
Looks like I might have to keep commuting for another 5-10 years :)!!
