Someone here is an imposter. We need to find out who!

He's certainly got some talent! I've heard that song and the others on the album, and they're good covers. I've got to say I'm not really familiar with Young Cash, but he does good on this album.
It was a pretty good event. Nice to see TΓ€nak a little closer to his usual pace. It seems Elfyn is still struggling with the setup on his car, hopefully he can get that sorted. I enjoy gravel events, so I'm looking forward to the next few!
I would be curious to see what independent voters and non voters think as well, I think that would be an interesting data point.
Completely agree. I wasn't interested in having a girlfriend or getting married right away, and I got that question almost constantly. The other one that makes me angry to hear is questioning about having kids. Can you imagine how heartwrenching that question could be if you had just lost a baby? I've seen a situation where someone wouldn't let that rest, and the person they were asking had that exact thing happen.
The other questions I don't have as strong of a reaction to because they wouldn't personally bother me, but I certainly wouldn't be asking them myself!

Joe is great! I really enjoy blues and the various iterations on it.
It definitely has changed since then. It's not that I can't stand all the new stuff, I just wouldn't call most of it country anymore! There are still some artists doing the old school sound, you just don't hear much about them.

Mullet country! π I like a lot of Diamond Rio, and some other country bands in that decade. There was a great sound some of them did in that time period that I don't really hear anymore.
Outskirts of Town - Albert King
I love the sounds Albert could get out of his guitar, especially during live performances. He gives the music room to breathe. Also, another left hand guitarist that plays reverse strings!
The first video game I remember playing was Frogger, and it was at someone else's house. I don't recall what console it was on though.
The first thing I owned that I played games on was a PC, so no consoles for me! Later on I did purchase a console, the first one was a Gameboy Advance I think.
It certainly is! I had tinkered with it a little on my own time, and then worked on a few projects for people that needed cheap work rather than pro quality! It gives me a lot of respect for the pro editors!
It certainly appears to be! I've messed around with some video work before, and I really enjoy when people are willing to plan things out like that. There was an episode of Mr. Robot that was filmed to look like one single 45 minute take, and I loved the concept.

Glad you're liking them!
Any of the Marvel movies (except for the Spider-Man trilogy), Star Wars, Die Hard, Terminator, the Matrix, Jurassic Park, and others that I'm not thinking of! I just don't get them for some reason, and seemingly everyone around me loves them all.
Same here. I've still been running some heat because we're getting into the 40s some nights. No A/C other than a few days so far.
Very true. I've got 90s era stuff that's still ticking along without anything other than a good dusting and some new thermal paste, and five year old computers that have already had major hardware failure. I know some of it is all the old defective equipment has already failed and been trashed, but a lot of it was better overall.
