Earlier today I saw this message on the Logitech Squeezebox Touch, now it’s on the radio in my bedroom. I sent the diagnostic information to clear the messages. Can the kitchen radio be far behind?

The Official Massachusetts Dessert
Chocolate isn’t at the top of my list of favorite desserts. I prefer other treats over chocolate, including vanilla ice cream, carrot cake, and key lime pie.
My favorite dessert only happens to have chocolate on top, and it’s a pie that’s actually cake. For me, it’s the pudding that makes Boston cream pie the best.
Follow-up: Uh, oh. I shouldn’t have published this post. Look what’s on sale at the grocery store.
Supermat
Freddie may be dead…
… but Superfly lives on, with a felt turntable mat!
The mat was created by Steve Stanley, founder of the Now Sounds reissue label.
Steve designed the deluxe Superfly 50th anniversary expanded soundtrack LP reissue for ROG/Rhino Records. When I posted the picture of my Thorens with the mat on Facebook, Steve told me, “An honor to make that for the reissue!” It’s a super idea, and I think every LP reissue from now on should include a custom mat. Steve’s Now Sounds show is heard Mondays on Luxuriamusic.
Medical Attention Required
Monday’s CBS Evening News started a series on hospital closures. Tonight’s segment doesn’t appear to have been posted yet.
Which reminds me. I meant to post this report from the PBS News Hour when it aired a couple of weeks ago.
The Cause of the Effect?
Until watching last night’s 60 Minutes, I had never heard of Ray Epps. Even if I did hear his name, it didn’t register with me until now because he’s a MAGA mad hatter. Or at least he was. It’s no surprise that Trumpers are turning on each other. Of course they are.
While watching the Epps interview on my TiVo this morning, Fox News announced it was parting ways immediately with Tucker Carlson. Is there a connection? Epps said that Carlson is “obsessed with me. He’s going to any means possible to destroy my life.”
Could this be why, coming so soon after last week’s $787.5 million settlement with Dominion, Carlson is out at Fox? If the story were about anyone else, this is the question Tucker would be asking on his (now-cancelled) show.
Update: CNN has announced that Don Lemon is leaving. Was there a trade between the networks? Are the two cable TV personalities switching teams? What’s the process for turning reckless speculation into conspiracy theories?
Happy Prue Day!
Today is Prue’s birthday, and I am hoping to arrange something very special for her. I’ve had a “Why didn’t I think of this before??” brainstorm.
