With Peter Tork gone, Mike Nesmith and Micky Dolenz are the two remaining Monkees, and I will be seeing them tonight at Mohegan Sun in Connecticut. Andrew Sandoval, everybody’s friend in 60’s Production Pop music, is managing the tour.

Oh, Brad!
Brad Rutter apologized to his team for a less-than-stellar performance in tonight’s competition.
But they’re still in the lead, thanks in part to Larissa nailing Final Jeopardy!
(“Oh, Brad!” is a movie reference. The “Rocky” that came out the year before “Rocky.”)
Team Brad Takes the Lead!
Brad got off to a strong start, Larissa secured the lead, and Dave scored the Final Jeopardy touchdown!
Team Brad is Going to Win!
Larissa Kelly fans are getting ready for the Jeopardy! All-Star Games!
Proving His Point
An illegal alien from El Salvador with a criminal record, driving for Uber, accused of sexual assault. Link to story.
Jose H. Arevalos-Avalos, 37, was arrested by Immigration and Customs Enforcement agents, because he is in the U.S. illegally and has a criminal record. It is unclear if or how he passed an Uber background check before becoming a driver for the company.

Arevalos-Avalos was arrested on Friday in Holliston and charged with sexually assaulting a passenger in Ashland. It was not his first arrest. According to an ICE official, Arevalos-Avalos was deported in 2011 after he was convicted of possession of cocaine with intent to distribute in 2010.
For Trump’s supporters, this validates everything that he has been saying about immigration from the day he announced his candidacy. It also highlights the need to regulate Uber’s operations.
Speakerman!
The subwoofer has a new foam surround. It’s one of the relatively few that attaches behind the cone. Have to wait 24 hours for the glue to set before giving it a test run.
Follow-up: Success! It works, and thanks to the plastic shims keeping the cone centered while doing the gluing there’s no rubbing.
My next repair project will be replacing the LCD panel in my 14″ HP laptop. Over the past year it’s developed a rather large and distracting defect.
