Thanks for the goodbyes.
Some warmed my rusty heart.
See ya!

I hope you're keeping well. For the luckiest people, this is true in the era of covid:-
i) neither they nor the people they love get infected
ii) they can work from home
iii) for US residents: they are not victims of wildfires or hurricanes.

I hope all, or most, of the above apply to you.

Well, ii and iii apply to me at least so that’s good. How are you doing?

Therefore I decided to mostly stop being around it.
I might still pop in at some point and I'll probably still be checking out end of year lists by members with good taste (looking at Hawk and Ant) but apart from that I won't really be around.
Thanks for all the bants and the good music.
I'll be missing some of you.

Cheers and be well!

Damn. Just when I popped in for a visit. Hopefully I’ll still see you around sometimes. Best of luck in whatever you’re focusing on next!

I´m going to miss grindy's contributions, especially in the World Music and Jazz/Blues sections, but at least it's good to know that someone will still be monitoring us for errors in Natural History. Thanks.

"Two out of three ain't bad" comes from some 80s song, I think. I'm fine thanks, and also score two out of three. I can count 3 relatives/friends who got covid, but luckily they all bounced right back and complained of very little other than a couple of days of fever. It's a re-assuring reminder, amid all the gloomy national stats, that in the majority of cases covid-19 is a minor infection only.

Meatloaf.

Of course! That was nagging at me from the minute I posted. Thanks.

It's always been one of those songs that when someone uses the phrase, it instantly comes to mind. The dude was an earworm scientist.

It's true: once on a long drive with Meatloaf on the stereo, a girl I knew sang her way through the entire album, along with the band.

Must have been one flattened stereo.
