Good morning!

I like the thread title
So Eric, is NYC locked down because of the terrorism in Manchester? I'm thinking everything slows down probably and is a drag but I would rather feel safe.
I hope everyone is doing well. I got a new book about Jason Molina today. I'm going to tear into it tonight. Tv, reading, and music is all I've been doing. I booked my last show last Friday. It was packed and a birthday party for my friend. Tired of it.
No plans for the weekend. I think I might be a hermit and get my Weber Smokey Joe out and grill something, read, watch tv and movies and listen to music. It's a tradition to listen to the Indy 500 on the radio race day ever since I can remember. A lot of Hoosier traditions in prerace ceremonies
Tomorrow he runs the 800 in the HS Regionals at my high school. He has a real good chance to win it and go to Semi State. I'm proud of him he got all As in high school and is on Honor Society
What's the Molina book called, Kim? He's one of my very favorites.
Thanks for the kind words about my family.
He goes to Basic Training for 7.5 weeks in San Antonio, TX on July 4, 2017. After that he goes to Spokane, Washington for four (4) years. He told me he wants to be a SERE Instructor. What I don't know is for example: when his basic training is over with will he be deployed if we go to war? I think he told me he would be deployed at least once.
Tomorrow is a lovely day off with the misses. I'm voting for naked gardening.
Saturday the boys are coming down with A_____'s bestie. We are having A____'s annual Bubs-B-Q cookout on Sunday. The theme this year is "MUSIC". Thanks to y'all that played along with my FB mixtape game. It came out great.
Monday will be pretty chill. I think A____ is hyped to show his friend (who's also a killer musician) the recording studio and work up some jamz.
I'll likely keep goobing out on my computer projects too. I've been dinking around with Linux on tiny computers and old laptops. A buddy says he has a stack of four old machines I can have. Susanne is bringing one too. I hope to being some or all of them back to usefulness while also trying out different versions of Linux and learning stuff along the way.
I'm thinking we'll grill mititei on Monday. (Aka "mici" (MEECH) or "cevapcici.") Those are the little garlicky skinless sausages Romanians (and some other Europeans) grill when they have cookouts. High time I learned to make those. I found a recipe online and am going to give it a shot.
Does this work?

Yes. I was worried that there wouldn't enough songs about the pure concept of music so I thought I'd broaden it. 160 replies later, I realized I could be a little more rigid.
But then summer vacay starts. This summer the school district is forcing teachers to enroll in workshops. That means that I'm obligated to attend several over the summer. I have a suspicion that this experiment will lead to more 'keeping teachers busy' days in future summers. Only 8 more years until I'm eligible for retirement...
Luke was ranked and seeded #2 by time in his race in Regionals. He started off too fast (Matt knew when he was ahead on lap 1 at turn 3 he went out way too fast. Matt ran the 800 too. It's 2 laps) and finished terrible. He was really sad.
You know how I know I'm really depressed I've missed 3 sold out shows I had tickets to.
