I've rocking to this in my Bermuda shorts and my poison of choice...

Which is the reason I can never understand how people can love a song without knowing (and understanding) the lyrics to said song. Sadly that happens a lot.
Music is a language unto its own. I grew up with really poor audio gear and really couldn’t make out a lot of lyrics. Not every album provided lyrics. But the music can still lift you up and carry you.🤷🏻‍♂️

Lol! I'm afraid my singing would only be counter to the respectful and ethical treatment of any human within audible range. 🤣
Stop trying to sing Marilyn Manson songs and that might help.🤪

Oh and since I never received any Oklahoma redbud trees I bought some local and had my guys plant them. 😉

But Marilyn Manson is perfect for people who can't sing, because at the recommended 105 dB playback levels you can't hear yourself. :laughing:

Now I don't mind Marilyn Monroe...but not Manson....nah...nasty...
Which leads to another great song IMO, Candle in the Wind… Elton John

So, given that Prime Day ends today, I decided to spring for an AeroPress and a pour-over kettle with water temp display. I've watched the official video on how to use it and it seems pretty straight forward, but a comment I saw on a review stated AeroPress is easy to use and difficult to Master. Any tips for an AeroPress newbie. Any accessories recommended besides a grinder? :wink:
I sprung for one too, I'm giving it a try in just a bit. Long term French press user here, so we will see...

Let's post any mutual tips!

You should try to listen to a few songs in languages you don't speak and you'll quickly understand how this works for, let's face it, pretty much most of the planet's population. ;p
All the time. I love Fado. My spanish is good enough to catch one word in 5, due the the Portuguese proximity rule :stuck_out_tongue_winking_eye: (and :wine_glass:), most days, so I'm pretty sure I get the gist. But the melody. That's just too beautiful to be ignored.

Do not push all the way since you want to keep the bitter/astringent components locked in the grounds. Stop pushing as soon as you hear the hiss and enjoy delicious coffee :)

You'd need a good scale to get consistent strength/intensity of your brews

And let's not forget Cats In The Cradle.
Sadly, I know a couple guys (none here) who were absent dads. They're living that song, and it's sad.

You may have given this advice as a joke, but it is very good advice!

Same story for me for some years, as much as I wanted to read fiction I was working and going to one of those schools that end in Institute of Technology so I had to concentrate on that which might make up a career. :ksc75smile:

In retirement I never have to do another resume and list my education or where I worked so I am loving that part of it.😁
Amen! NO ONE cares what my resume looks like in retirement.:prince:🤪🤪😜
