When I saw that the Gipsy Kings were playing at Chastain tomorrow night, I knew what the Friday Night Travelin’ Music ™ would feature. I’ve never seen the Kings in person, but I’ve long admired their musicianship and passion. They’re true Romani, or gypsy, from Spain by way of France.
But if their current tour takes them by way of Arizona, they better keep their passports handy.
Ladies and gentlemen, the Gipsy Kings!

Headline: “The National Enquirer is reporting tonight that President Barack Obama is soon to be ensconced in a cheating scandal with a young woman named Vera Baker.”

Scout,
“The National Enquirer has a decidedly hit-or-miss record of reporting accuracy. ”
Don’t get me wrong….there is every chance that “powerful” men philander…but this does seem remote. And really…a sex scandal…so Clinton…c’mon go after verifiable failures…

Scout,
Since you seen to be up…you should research Aristophanes’s speech from Plato’s Symposium…

Scout,
“Way over my head ……”
I doubt that
“will it grow legs (no pun intended).”
Not really…but if you want insight into my beliefs of human sexuality…Aristophanes is this place to begin…
Here is a shortcut:

Scout,
“will it grow legs (no pun intended).”
Sorry for my 12.47…I though you had looked into Aristophanes. I just gathered you were speaking of the rumors on the link you provided.
Will it grow legs?
Why, of course. There are those who are willing to believe anything when it comes to Obama. Ask Lorrin Kim, head of the Hawaii Department of Health’s Office of Planning, Policy and Program Development

Mornin’.
I was listening to Leonard Lopate interviewing folks who unearthed a lost documentary about the Abraham Lincoln Brigade, and it got me wondering if, given the topic, anyone thought to link to the Clash’s “Spanish Bombs.”
Doesn’t look like anyone did, so here’s my 1 belated music linkee for the thread:

Well, we needed a bigger place to store our nation’s strategic petroleum reserves. I don’t think we’ll have a capacity issue with our new facility in our lifetimes.

I watched some of the Charlie Rose “interview” of Goldman’s Sachs’ Lloyd Blankfein late last night, until I got so repulsed I had to change channels.
I’m not sure what his reputation is like, but from what I saw, the “well connected” (Morgan Stanley) Rose is a complete corporate suck up and toadie. Talk about softball questions! And stroking fat cats egos! OMG, it was just nauseating.
And the casino capitalist extraordinaire, Blankfein has said, “We financed real estate that was probably overleveraged.”
PROBABLY???
Buffet seems to think a lot of him, but all I saw was an exceptionally vague, slick talker who must know he is running a quasi-crime syndicate.
