Friday Random Stuff…

Weekend? I dunno, my weekend seems just like the rest of my week anymore.
Watched lately:
Community on Hulu
Stephen King’s The Stand again
Tried to watch The Pillars of the Earth but lost interest despite a great cast.

Chrome & Firefox Updated
Chrome = bugfixes
Firefox = “Security fixes”

Off topic:

Adam Schlesinger, Fountains of Wayne co-founder, dead at 52 from Covid-19
“Adam Schlesinger, the co-founder of pop-rock band Fountains of Wayne and an Oscar-nominated songwriter, has died from complications related to coronavirus. He was 52.”
I was driving home and heard the news on NPR. I didn’t know anything about him except he wrote the title song for the movie That Thing You Do. I loved that movie (it didn’t hurt that Liv Tyler was at her most adorable). I love that song.

    I do not know if you had heard the new that Bill Withers die also. He lost his battle to heart issues. He was the guy for sang “Lean on Me” and Ain’t No Sunshine. Here is the link https://www.cnn.com/2020/04/03/entertainment/bill-withers-obit/index.html

    Just wanted to let you know.

    My nephew mentioned how good ‘The Mandolorian’ was so I just started binge watching it. He was right. The music is beautiful. The photography magnificent. It reminds me of how much I loved the first Star Wars movies. Very simple, mythic and magical. And to watch the Mandolorian becoming more heroic with each episode reminds me how much greatness we humans are capable of on TV or in the movies. Oh, I just love binge watching!
