'DEATH SPIRAL': Florida Chamber delivers a scathing warning about Illinois

The end is near for Illinois.

Chicago mayoral candidate sues rivals over dual-office campaigns

Oh yeah, there ought to be a law against running for two offices at once in Illinois. 

But perhaps there is one already.

 

These judges are destroying us one case at a time: Expert

The attorney here discussing John Lyke, a radical Cook County judge, is wrong.

Laura Ingraham: The agenda here is OBVIOUS on AI scare tactics

The leftists have bad political ideas, starting with full-blown socialism, which most voters oppose.

So they have to create crises to win elections. Two decades ago it was Al Gore and his global warming alarmism.

Lefties Losing It: Chicago is an embarrassment to America

Willie Nile - The Day The Earth Stood Still (Official Video)

Some great music, mostly from Van Morrison and Eric Clapton, was composed during the COVID lockdowns. 

Here's another, "The Day the Earth Stood Still," by Willie Nile. The song draws its inspiration from the 1951 classic science fiction movie of the same name. Nile laments the empty streets, which reminds him of the stopping of electricity and more for an hour by Klaatu, the benevolent alien. 

Nile even works the foreboding phrase, ""Klaatu barada nikto," from the movie into this song.

It's a great work, although it's a bit too sympathetic to the lockdown insanity of 2020 for my taste.

Problem solved.

How hard is that?

The Kinks - End of the Season (Official Audio)

Because English winters are similar to Midwestern autumns, it's difficult to say if this great Kinks deep cut, "End of the Season" from Something Else, is about the end of summer or fall. 

No worries, it's a great tune regardless of the season.
