These Ancient Hippie Performances Just Harsh My Mellow


If geezers really must do this, at least learn some Rolling Stones songs. That I'd listen to. 

But Rockin' in the Free World? That invites people to notice that it will have to be rockin' in the not-so-free world if you're a Ukrainian whose democratic preference is for one of the opposition parties that Ukraine's National Security and Defense Council banned two years ago

It seems democracy is too valuable to let just anybody vote. 

BTW, when is Ukraine's next election? Does anyone know? 

Trick question! Ukraine's present government has declared martial law, and, unfortunately, no elections are allowed under martial law. Any Ukrainians who wish to rock in that free world will have to wait until their government allows them.

Have you heard James Taylor doing
"You've got a friend" for the French ambassador? It's not to be missed!

I recall that. John Francois Kerry introduced Taylor as "a neighbor from Hyannis Port" or something like that.

Tayor has been dead to me ever since he was mean to Carly Simon. (sniff)

The look on the French woman's face is beyond classic.

Le 'gallic shrug' works for any occasion. Silent but eloquent, although it may be accompanied by a vocal "bof".
