If it's Tuesday it must be nonsense

The joy of YouTube is like a yard sale-you never know what you'll find. Enjoy.

Musical Selections
Some perfectly awesome Bach -on guitars. Rock on.

We tend to look to Bill Haley and the Comets' " Rock Around the Clock" as the beginning of Rock and Roll but it was around long before him. There are some great nearly forgotten orginators, like the Godmother of Rock and Roll-Sister Rosetta Tharpe and don't you forget it chil'. 

 I used to play cello years ago and still appreciate the instrument. This is a great cello intro to a Verdi aria that I find particularly haunting ( well the character is singing about being a prisoner).

Funny Stuff
While this Thing That Ate Society is still all the news, there are other things going on we can't ignore, like the environment and political incompetence. Thank you John Oliver.

 One of my favorite YouTube regular is The Try Guys. Their shtick is to naively try things with often hilarious results. "Playing withDolls" demonstrates how four allegedly adult males can be reduced to seven year girls.

Finally, if you are having trouble feeling romantic or randy these days, this might help. 

Sister Rosetta Tharpe, John Oliver, Bach, Verdi, Try Guys, condoms
