Time for one of the best Bowie stories

quote:

Bowie... So we're on the beach shooting this scene with a giant bulldozer. The camera was on a very long lens. (Camera is along way away, but the artist fills the frame) In this video i'm dressed from head to toe in a clown suit. Why not.I hear playback and the music starts. So off I go, I start singing and walking, but as soon as I do this old geezer with an old dog walk right between me and the camera.
Me.........Laugh (seeing this video in my head and what that must of been like on the set)
Bowie....Well knowing this is gonna take a while I walked past the old guy and sat next to camera in my full costume waiting for him to pass. As he is walking by camera the director said, excuse me Mr do you know who this is? The old guy looks at me from bottom to top and looks back to the director and said....
Old Man....... Of course i do!!!! its some oval office in a clown suit
Bowie.......... That was a huge moment for me, It put me back in my place and made me realize, yes i'm just a oval office in a clown suit. I think about that old guy all the time

Used to work with a guy who was a next-level metalhead. Been a programmer for years and years at that point but afaict it was to subsidize metal poo poo. Ran a review website and and to just about every metal show in the Portland area no matter what.

I like Melvins which is the only sludge I know.

Can’t stand throaty screamy metal vocals, poo poo’s garbage. Just fuckin’ crap that undoes any actual talent emanating from the rest of the band.

can you do something similar with peaches

Unfamiliar with using peaches but I found this discussion: https://www.homebrewtalk.com/threads/why-cant-a-person-use-straight-peach-juice-for-cider.579337/

There's a good point made about peaches being very tart and sweet and if fermented it's liable to be super-tart.

Could always make a peach liqueur to use along with other things: https://www.thespruceeats.com/peach-liqueur-recipe-1807072

Thinking about sending a blind letter to this house offering a cashier's check for it.

That's the house my grandparents raised my father and all my aunts and uncles in.

Idea is to live in the UP spring through fall, airbnb or short term rent a place in a warmer climate for the winter.

At least i'd loving own something before I die, and it'd soothe my soul.

Town that size if you meet a nice woman you'll have to double-check that you aren't cousins. Why not find a place closer to the regional metropolis of Iron River
