There's a really dumb (as in, so dumb it's kinda fun) late-70s disco song titled "H-A-P-P-Y Radio," by Edwin Starr.

At the other end of the 70s, Starr had sung the classic protest song "War (What Is It Good For?)"

Those extremes sum up that whole decade pretty well, I think.

But I'm no expert. I was five years old when the 70s ended.

^^Good observation, Annfie. smile

To me, it's interesting that the first No. 1 song of the '70s was "Raindrops Keep Fallin' on My Head" by B. J. Thomas, and the last No. 1 of the '70s was "Escape (The Pina Colada Song) " by Rupert Holmes. Those songs bookend the decade nicely.

By the way, I was six when the decade began and 17 when it ended. My musical education was formed by the decade of Tony Orlando & Dawn, Grand Funk, disco, and Donna Summer.

I tend to take a liking to a small number of songs, and listen to them over and over. I'm slow to adopt new songs into my playlist.

This used to drive Blaze crazy all the time, because he kept up to date with new songs on Spotify.

A hashtag at the end of a sad comment following someone's unexpected death. Except "fart" is the part of the tag that clearly stands out.

Many of the landmarks in Amsterdam are extremely literally-named. One church is called the Old Church, another is called the New Church...

The European heatwave is so bad, that the record for highest temperature in Netherlands was broken. Twice. On consecutive days.

I just received some very scary invitations on Grindr and on Romeo (gay "dating"/hookup apps).

One was an invitation to try out for an adult film, with 1200 EUR for 3 hours of filming to make a 20-minute clip.

Another was an invitation to join a satanic-themed orgy with 13 tops (the pentetrators) and one bottom (the one being penetrated) set in a private chapel.

I'm getting a little scared now lol

I've just come back from a second trip round the neighbourhood, in the pouring rain, calling for my boss, the cat. Did she bother to stick her head from out of a kitchen cabinet to tell me she was fine and was having a nap... she did not.

The late cartoonist Don Martin (a longtime contributor to Mad who eventually defected to Cracked) could often be too tasteless even for ME, but I always liked two things about his art -- the way his characters wore oversized shoes that flopped around in the front, and the sound effect onomatopoeia he'd come up with -- "FOONGA-FOONGA" was a particular favorite.

The 90s were an unhappy time for me. Ergo, I am turned off by 90s nostalgia.

The 2000s were a happier time for me. Yet I am turned off even more by 2000s nostalgia -- I mean, Jennifer Lopez making a comeback in a hit movie is about as obvious a bad omen as they come!

Congratulations, Ibby. Hope it's only the beginning of something wonderful.

Something else random...I think Marvel should reveal that the real Black Widow hasn't been seen since the end of her George Perez Marvel Fanfare showcase story around 1982-83. They don't have to pay me, and they probably wouldn't either way, but I'd like to see it happen.

Thanks Fanfie, sweet of you.

I wore a translucent red plastic raincoat last night because it was raining so hard.

The new President of Uruguay looks like Don Johnson -- well past his Miami Vice prime, that is.

And his mother's maiden name is pronounced the same as "poo."

In the Philippines, typhoon strength is rated by Signal 1 to 4. Signal 4 is the strongest. Signal 2 means children should not be outdoors. Signal 3 means classes at al levels (i..e until university level) should be suspended.

Me and a co-worker go outside last night to do snow removal. According to the weather report, we had eighteen inches of snowfall that night.

It just came up to my ankles. My co-worker smirked and said, 'This is how you can tell the weatherman is a guy.'
