Apologize? What for? Is there no freedom of speech? Or at least the traditional fool's license?
Help, help! We are being oppressed!
I have lived with several Zen masters - all of them were cats.
His last invention was an evil Lasagna. It didn't kill anyone, and it actually tasted pretty good.

That's one of those rule in hell or serve in heaven things. No middle ground.

Weren't you talking about his small-skulled cat?

Wrong part of the world, and those don't include the skull - it's removed in processing as (being largely calcium) it doesn't shrink!
Shrunken head - Wikipedia[^] explains the process.

In yet another part of the world people like my old father, Sergeant Major(retired), can teach you ways to shrink heads while the object of his attention is still alive.

In most old-style armies, recruits were (are?) much more afraid of the Sergeant-Major than of the Enemy. All the Enemy can do is kill you...

That has not changed. The Sergeant Major's word comes right after god's. It's his job to keep about 150 enlisted men and NCOs in line and ready. For that they need to be a little more format than just being yelling fools.

I've got a 6 inch stone version of that - only 2.5Kg - which I bought in Malaysia thirty odd years ago and brought back as part of my hand luggage ... Absolutely brilliant things!

My boss always reminds me of foolishly having brought some to work a while ago. Now he expects me to bring him some all the time.

Waste of Space Orchestra - Seeker's Reflection[^]
One of my favorite metal bands, Oranssi Pazuzu, teamed up with another pretty amazing band, Dark Buddha Rising, to form Waste of Space Orchestra and unleash some spacey metal unto the world.
It was played live at Roadburn Festival 2018, but released as a studio album this year.
And I've finally gotten around to giving it a good listen.
Well, it's awesome!
It's a psychedelic metal journey that's not exactly an easy listening experience.
I guess it's more Oranssi Pazuzu than Dark Buddha Rising, but that's not a bad thing.
I was waiting for a new album anyway and this may well be it.
Highly recommended if you're a fan of psychedelic metal from Finland

I was listening to an album called Crystal Machete by Wes Borland the other day for the first time, and I got to a track called White Stallion[^], which for some reason reminded me of your Sound of the Week's.
I think it's the retro gaming vibe that made me think of your weekly posts, have you heard the song before?

Didn't know it.
It's not quite what I was expecting from the musical brains behind Limp Bizkit 
According to Wikipedia "The album was conceived as a soundtrack to an imaginary '80s movie."
That explains a lot

I've seen some of his other videos as well.
It's pretty good and the guy's pretty funny

I get the feeling that the only socioeconomic group that is decently wealthy that supports UBI are techies. It must be that software is the ultimate zero-marginal-cost economic good there is, and programmers are incentivized, when they have the time, to contribute to shareware - so we can see an economic system based on folks doing k3wl stuff for the benefit of all.

I don't agree with that. There are other professionals and artists that have similar incentives and drive.
BTW, UBI is a really-bad-idea.
And that's all she wrote.
