This is a virtual cafe where all ideas are entertained all facts discerned, all topics discussed. And just because the proprietor has a passion for Christ, books, and the Acoustic guitar, that doesn't mean you can't veer wildly off into different subjects. So, come in, have a coffee (imported especially from Verble's finca in El Salvador), and talk about whatever you want.

I heard this and after that, my feed came at me with The Beatles "I'm Looking Through You" and I suddenly had the idea for an anthemic metal cover of that song.
Hear me out!
The deep throat guy growl sings the part "why tell me why did you not treat me right? Love has a NASTY habit of DISAPPEARING OVERNIIIIIIIIIIIIIIGHT!"

One reviewer who heard the album considered it "audacious, if flawed" while another wrote that "It was something that only someone who enjoys Beatles covers could truly enjoy."
My dear friends, yesterday a Trump Troll, rather than attempting to discuss important civic matters in a rational debate, simply told my friend PK and I to "go back to our gardening and music"
How she knows I garden I have no idea, because I do not garden. Attempted many times, but the Associated for Decent Treatment to Flora sent me a letter begging me never to touch one of our green-leaved friends again. Apparently the Chrysanthemums accused me of abuse, the Pansies said I engage in hate crimes, and the Avacado trees tried to drag me before the World Court to be held accountable for genocide. Suffice it to say, gardening is not my forte.
However, the Trump Troll did inspire me to cobble together a list of songs about gardening and music. OK, songs that have "garden" in the title. But here you go friends, get out your trowels, your top soil, your guitars bass & drums, and ENJOY!

Just found this incredible CD of Vivaldi's Four Seasons, look who they got on here:
Spring is done by Death Cab for Cutie
Summer is done by Bela Fleck, Edgar Mayer, Yo-Yo Ma, and John O'Connor
Autumn is done by Fleet Foxes
Winter is done by both the Kronos Quartet and the Modern Mandolin Quartet.
This is some good stuff . . . what incredible bands! What incredible sound!
Verble says, when my first daughter went away to college, I bought her some albums to take with her. It was around 1980 - now, when my other kids went to college, I made 'em some mix tapes. God that was cool. I loved those times.
I know a young lady who's now going to school in London, reminds me so much like my daughters, so I thought of this mix CD for her. Basically, they're songs that remind me of London, for no real particular reason why. But as I imagined this girl wandering the streets of London, seeking out the crevasses and the history and absorbing this great and ancient city, I imagined this as one soundtrack on one afternoon.
Only, I have to admit, since everything's on a playlist now, she might just add these songs to the great ocean of tunes on her iPod!
Or not . . . because she might think they suck. That's all right, though. One person's rock is another person's schlock, I always say!
This one's for you, Huda!
