"Michael Crowley in POLITICO writes: "Barack Obama faces a slew of Middle East crises that some call the worst in a generation, as new chaos from Yemen to Iraq — along with deteriorating U.S.-Israeli relations — is confounding the president’s efforts to stabilize the region and strike a nuclear deal with Iran."
West may be caving on the Iran deal.. Adding some some more straws to the camel’s back: Saudi Arabia wants nukes. But will still not let women drive.
And this is the world we live in.

Cruzing to a bruising

I don’t put much stock in the chances of Ted Cruz becoming our next president.. But his candidacy will lead to lots of fun and jokes.. Already has..
But there is one thing that makes a bigger difference to me than him even being from Canada:
After 9/11, he stopped listening to rock music.
Hunter Schwartz with the Washington POST reports,
In an interview with CBS News Tuesday, Cruz said he grew up listening to classic rock, but became a country fan after 9/11 because of how musicians responded to the attacks.
"I actually find this intellectually curious, but on 9/11, I didn’t like how rock music responded, and country music collectively, the way they responded, it resonated with me, and I just have to say just at a gut level, I had an emotional reaction that said these are my people," he said.
Country music was very patriotic following 9/11. Songs like “Only in America” by Brooks & Dunn, “Where Were You (When the World Stopped Turning)” by Alan Jackson, and “Courtesy of the Red, White and Blue (The Angry American)” by Toby Keith were all hits on Billboard’s Country chart.
The POST article goes on to point out the rock songs that became popular after 9/11, like Bruce Springsteen’s THE RISING, Wu Tang Clan’s RULES, and Neil Young’s LET’S ROLL..
It’s not being said, but I think this whole Cruz quote is based off of what happened to the Dixie Chicks. Remember that fiasco? Freedom fries eating American burned their albums to protest their protesting of the Iraq war? Let’s be honest… there were two periods after 9/11: 1) The initial unification of America and chance to change the world. 2) The Iraq war run-up.. Which America is Cruz talking about?

Sure, it’s a good performance.. Fine, she is a great singer.. And yes, she’s a STAR»> But there’s something awfully creepy to me about this J LO live scene from AMERICAN IDOL.. Maybe her hypnotic dress.. perhaps the ‘feel the light’ mantra in light of the CERN churning of parallel universe hopes or the eclipse and super moons..
Or maybe I just listened to too much CLYDE LEWIS recently..
Regardless.. feel the light.
Thanks to someone on Facebook, this song is now re-stuck in my head for the first time in 5 years.. Awful.. just an awful song..

WE ARE DONE by the Madden Brothers.. Love this song. The fitting mood for the weekend’s end.

This is music from the TRUMAN SHOW by Phillip Glass.. It’s the sort of mood I’m tonight. Slightly Beethoven-ish but with more of a modern edge. It gives me the feeling of peace and security.. it’s as though you’re sleeping in safe quarters while fires of hell and scourge of war rages outside your window. And when you wake up, in the pile of your nightly drool, trying to remember what your last few seconds of your dream excursion was, you’ll have to face the day again. And you won’t like it at all..

This was a small snippet I found on YouTube of Fitz and the Tantrums singing Fools Gold at Penn’s Peak in Jim Thorpe, PA, this past Friday night..
I was there—front row too.
It was a Mother’s Day sort of gift—dinner and a show. A great one too
My wife was the Fitz fan before I was.. I think I’ve been tantrummed after seeing a nonstop high-energy performance .. Great time had by all.
I am a fan.

Pretty amazing redo of Giorgio Moroder’s THE CHASE by a band called Kings Love Jacks.
It’s like Art Bell and George Noory on ecstasy near the end. Or the soundtrack to a real alien anal probe.
