He did a great cover of "Bridge Over Troubled Waters."
Actually not needing validation right now, but thank you.

Sometimes I think I might just move up to Vermont, open a bookstore or a vegan restaurant. Adam Schlesinger, z''l
OK, I'm going to bed now. I'm finally tired, though I'm also still humming "Love Boy." This might lead to weird dreams...

Love is stronger than death and harder than sorrow. Those who practice it are fierce like the light of stars traveling eons to pierce the night.
Yeah, I knew the part about Paul saying that Christians didn't have to follow the commandments; what I was wondering was why some Christians still believe they have to follow those first ten, anyway.
There's a certain amount of "If Jesus mentioned a commandment in the Gospels, then for sure it is a Commandment, and we have to follow it." Jesus, and that funny Paul fellow, neither of them had strong feelings about the edibility of shrimp, or wearing linsey-woolsey, at least not to speak of. But, by gum, they both had opinions about throwing stones and taking things that don't belong to oneself.

So, I went to pubquiz tonight, and one of the categories was cocktails!! I was like "hey, we were just talking cocktails online...". The trivia master read out a list of ingredients, and then we had to name the drink. My team got all of them except the last one, I think (which was some totally bogus drink--something about chambord and vodka and sour mix, I think? A grape soda or something bizarre like that? I don't even remember--it was nothing I'd heard of). The rest were more traditional--an old fashioned, gimlet, manhattan, brandy alexander, mint julep, cuba libre, dark and stormy, cosmo, white russian, a few others.
We felt like total alcoholics by the end, since we did so much better on that category than on the "Hawaii" category. :)

Hawaii is made up of islands!

One of the Hawaii questions was to name five of the islands that make up Hawaii! We got to four (no thanks to me...I could name...two?) Other questions included what year it became a state (Um...), a question about some king, something about the number of letters in the alphabet, a multiple choice about the state fish, a beach, a gimme about which other state doesn't do Daylight Savings...

I’d be lying if I didn’t say that I miss them all tonight…
what year it became a state (Um...)
1959! Same year Alaska joined.
a question about some king
King Kamehameha, probably - he united the islands and established a dynasty.

Yep, that'd be the one!!
And oddly, my friend on the team with me who lived in Alaska til he was 11 did not know the answer to the statehood question! I was like "c'mon, didn't you have to take state history in like, 4th grade? Shouldn't you know the year?" (He thought it was 1950) [edit: not that *I* knew it--I was like "In the 50s sometime!", but I figured he ought to!]

King KamehamehaBeautiful statue of him in the Capital! It's got gold in it. I'd say the most colorful of the 100 (2 per state).
