As a musician, it was often requested for the band to announce song dedications for people in the audience. Those are the happy dedications for birthdays or anniversaries. Once I attended a concert where the singer announced a dedication to the women for 'All the kisses we snatched' and his guitarist added 'and vice versa'
I've been to concerts where the band dedicated a song to former bandmates or other famous musicians who have passed on. The heavy metal band, Quiet Riot always dedicates a song on every performance to the guitarist and co-founder Randy Rhoads who was killed in a plane crash. QR singer Kevin DuBrow who died of a drug overdose and drummer Frankie Banali who died of pancreatic cancer have been added to the dedications as the band continues to tour.
The show must go on... Quiet Riot will be performing in South Florida in January 2024.

This is a complicated subject and I'm having trouble wrapping my head around it.
US presidents definitely have a certain amount of legal immunity whilst carrying out the duties of their office and for good reason: if every Tom, d*ck and Harry were allowed to file civil suits against the president every time they disagreed with a statement, or decision, the president would not only be inhibited from free speech in the form of discussion and debate, but would soon be too bogged down with legal challenges to carry out their presidential duties.
Having said that, Article II, Section 4 provides: The President, Vice President and all civil Officers of the United States, shall be removed from Office on Impeachment for, and Conviction of, Treason, Bribery, or other high Crimes and Misdemeanors.
The very existence of the impeachment provision surely means that presidential immunity is not absolute.
However, there appears to be some contention about when a president is and is not liable in criminal, or civil settings depending upon the action, the time of the action, statute of limitations, etc. Presidential immunty is relevant with respect to the civil and criminal cases currently faced by Donald Trump.
A civil suit was brought against Trump in 2021 by two police officers and about a dozen members of congress seeking damages for injury sustained during the January 6th breach of the Capitol. An appellate court consisting of a three judge panel has just unanimously ruled that Trump can be held civilly liable.
The ruling asserts that "The sole issue before us is whether President Trump has demonstrated an entitlement to official-act immunity for his actions leading up to and on January 6 as alleged in the complaints."
With this statement the appellate judges have bypassed any issue of actual liability, but have stated their ruling is only about the extent of presidential immunity.
The ruling went on to say, "We answer no, at least at this stage of proceedings." This means that their decision can be appealed, but if upheld these particular complainants may continue with their civil suit against Trump.
The appellate judges argued in their ruling, "When a first term president opts to seek a second term, his campaign to win re-election is not an offical presidential act. The Office of the Presidency as an institution is agnostic about who will occupy it next. And campaigning to gain that office is not an official act of that office."
This ruling perhaps has wider implications with respect to Trump's other suits, namely his criminal indictments in Washinton DC where he stands accused of conspiracy to overturn the results of the 2020 presdential election. Trump's defense currently centers upon his presidential immunity, but if his actions are deemed a part of his campaign, that defense becomes moot.

The internet is filling up with repetitive never-ending webpages. The example is Pinterest. Someone posts a page and links 30 other pages who in turn are linked to another 30 pages. Over and over again, so one photo appears on the internet several hundred times.
The same thing with X (Formerly Twitter that will always be Twitter) when someone says something stupid, 400 people copy it and it gets regurgitated no less than 2,000 times.
Something simple like a (wannabe) fashion model re-posting the same 10 photos on their Facebook page. Wasn't one standing by that expensive sports car enough? You think you're scrolling to the bottom of their page only to find you haven't... there's more and more. Go ahead, scroll down... there's lots more. It's never-ending.
This blog isn't a rant... instead it's a statement of fact. Saturation is everywhere and where we are headed doesn't look pretty.
Programmers have created programs that will scan your hard drive and let you know if a photo appears more than once so you have the opportunity of deleting the duplicates. The internet needs to apply the same thought.
Scrolling to the bottom of someone's page will then be possible.

Good wax figures make history and bad wax figures even better history.
One of the latest figures to make the news is Dwayne 'The Rock' Johnson's figure at the Grévin Museum in Paris. Basically... it doesn't look like Dwayne.
The link had me laughing at how bad the wax statues were.
Celine Dion wasn't close... boobs are too big, wrong hair texture, different nose.

Currently, there is a vacancy for the position for Speaker of the House of Representatives. I think Kevin McCarthy was booted out for a bi-partisan effort to stall a government shutdown and that didn't go well with house republicans.
Lots of names came up, but what are the qualifications to become speaker of the house?
