Song Of The Day: May 4, 2018

Both Somnambulo/Somnambula agree on this one. In fact, if memory serves, this was my fave Tune Of The Year awhile back. I think Nathan Arizona will approve:

Memo To Dave McBride: Put the fucking bump-stock bill up for a vote. You can either put it on the agenda, or you can do it under a Motion To Suspend Rules.  You know and I know that it’s Standard Operating Procedure when a bill returns from the other chamber with amendments.  You have buried […]

The Senate has ruined my fun! Yesterday, I wrote about the imminent Senate consideration of one of the worst bills of ALL-TI-I-I-I-ME. Was on today’s Senate Agenda. It’s no longer on today’s Senate Agenda. Perhaps President Pro-Tem McBride decided that it wasn’t a good look to consider that bill while gun control bills languish under […]

‘Bulo’s Fave Tunes of April 2018: Part Deux

Might even be stronger than Part Un.  But that’s for you to decide: I’m 67 years old. Why do I find music from this teenager to be so compelling?: I want them at the Arden Gild Hall. Working on it…: They’re gonna be big. REAL big: We close with the most age-appropriate tune o’ the […]

La Somnambula‘s Day 3 choice is a great one: Like a lot of people, I saw the documentary film Paradise Lost and was deeply affected by the plight of the West Memphis Three. I wrote this song with Jimmy Bruno. The State of Arkansas seems to be in no hurry to publicly admit to the […]

‘Bulo’s Fave Tunes For April, 2018: Part One

Best musical month of the year by far. So I divided this feature up into two parts with the songs organized in alphabetical order by title. BTW, Kamasi Washington’s ‘Fists Of Fury’ belongs here, but I could only find a one-minute snippet on Youtube.  Well worth checking out, though.  Time for some music: I want […]

Late-breaking news!  Either PAL Longhurst was scared snitless, or she maybe has yet another amendment up her sleeve (Spoiler Alert: She does). HB 300 now appears on a revised House Agenda for today. You remember HB 300. It ‘makes it a crime to sell, transfer, buy, receive or possess a trigger crank or bump-fire device […]

This has been one of La Somnambula’s faves since before we met. Too bad that The Blessing didn’t have a few more of them:

La Somnambula takes the reins this week.  I agree with every single one of her choices (I want to continue to eat well and, well, they really are good choices). This song, of course, was inspired by perhaps the very first of America’s mass school shootings, memorialized here. Some of you youngsters may not even […]

1. Melissa Minor-Brown To Challenge Mike Mulrooney in RD 17. Well, they certainly differ on gun control issues. Mulrooney is proud of his association with the NRA,  generally supports the NRA position on gun measures. Brown does not.  Melissa Minor-Brown is listed as an RN with the VA.  So, I hope that the new candidate […]
