Friday Zen, featuring Tim Maia

During a recent Marc Maron podcast, he talked about needing peace one day and retreating from the noise and stress of life by going on a hike in Malibu. Nice option to have when you live in LA! Maron mentioned becoming entranced by a guy named Tim Maia during his hike, especially the song Nobody Can Live Forever. I had never heard of Maia, but with such a kickass first name, he's worth listening to. Maybe you all know him. Maybe you don't. The song came out in 1976. Perhaps it was inspired by animosity toward Gerald Ford. 

As you listen to Maia perform Nobody Can Live Forever below, remember that this phrase rings true for all, even demented Oompa Loompas in DC. And appreciate that 'fro. Hot damn, that is fantastic. 

Happy Friday, gents. 

Friday Afternoon POTUS-Inspired Post: Waiting For a Miracle

The bloated Ooompa Loompa currently serving as our president is on the record saying he is hoping for a miracle to combat the coronavirus. Join the club, Donnie!  Perhaps you can do a bit more than saying that and assigning a gay conversion therapy supporter to tackle it.

But in the interim, let's just wait for a miracle and focus on the impending weekend with Jerry.

Try to compartmentalize your angst and enjoy Friday, my friends. And while you're at it, fast-forward ~69 seconds for the tune to start.
