For the simple fact that anything you do to make it better in the daytime will also make it even better at night. There really is no way around it.If you ... | |

| It was 50 years ago today.... So the last the Beatles played was on a rooftop. Did not know that.So that means the ending of Across the Universe, singing All You Need is Love from the roof top, that was yet another homage. Good one. | |
| Should I upgrade my system while losing my hearing? Same deal here artemus. You got a few years on me but only a few. Same deal. In fact I'll do ya one better, I wandered down that maudlin path so far three whole years went by where I never once played a record but only watched movies. Because, why... | |
