I got you, Sue! I'll be at Amoeba for RSD and nab that Prefab Sprout for you.
David!!! Thanks so much!
Doing a deep dive on PS were one of the things that saved my sanity early in lockdown. A band I loved as a 15 year old, but never really listened to past 1990? One dedicated fan site with all kinds of interviews and recordings. How many more albums? How weird is that guy? (A question Cher apparently asked about Paddy when she was sent The Gunman.)
Did I ever tell you that I wrote to Paddy McAloon during lockdown? And...year and a half later. I got a reply! The best thing that happened in lockdown.

So cool! I also revisited Prefab Sprout over the last couple years. Paddy's got a huge backlog of recordings, apparently.
Why even argue with someone's *memory*?!
and, we're totally open on medical/ caregiving issues? Right.
That's why it's totally easier for me to say my internet isn't working than to say I have one. ETA: Internet is kind of wonky here, but there are times that I'm sure PDA thinks I'm on cups on a string.

Well, there was supposed to be a new album in 2019. But I have a feeling we're never going to see it.

Not even tin cans? Don't put up with that nonsense! Surely you're using the very finest in Campbells and Chef Boyardee tech!
Timelies all!
I like the weather this time of year, but I could do without the coating of pollen(with occasional cherry blossom petals) my car gets. I say that I don't have any allergies, but I'm starting to wonder if I have developed some.(My allergy screening was over 20 years ago.)
New allergies definitely can develop. It's an extremely annoying trick.
JZ- that is enraging. At that point in the pandemic, nothing was standard! No one knew what was happening. They probably put you in sort of full surgical garb, which includes the head covering. What an ass.
Sophia, part of it is just snooty rage at the sheer dumbness of "It's not the protocol where I work three years later, therefore you're lying about the protocol three years earlier, barely a month into the whole mishegoss." She also objected to someone else's tweet about a current event because X happened the next day and therefore the tweet was a lie, completely ignoring, you know, THE WHOLE FUCKING WAY TIME WORKS AND ALSO YOU CAN'T EDIT TWEETS.
This is better, actually; exasperation at dumbness is much more benign than murderous rage.
