From Wikipedia: Daisy Jones & the Six follows "a rock band in the 1970s from their rise in the LA music scene to becoming one of the most famous bands in the world and explores the reason behind their split at the height of their success."[5][6][7][8][9] The Amazon Prime Video series is based on Taylor Jenkins Reid's book of the same name, which the author describes was partly inspired by her experience growing up and by watching Fleetwood Mac performances on television. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I didn’t remember having so many of his albums, until I started sorting to find this one. I need to put a couple on to listen to. I would have to find a record player first...............do they still make record players? None in our house.............but we do have a stack of albums here that came with my Wife......🤣 I was to busy playing sports when I was younger, never got into the music thing........

None in our house.. I actually have two turntables. A Dual 1228 and a Technics SL-D3. Hmm, for some reason, these are now listed in the vintage category, much like me. FWIW, they do still make turntables, with some good ones in the $200 to $600 range. 6 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DaniDanielle Posted June 28, 2023 #97132 Share Posted June 28, 2023 My granddaughter, 14, bought a record player as she is into albums now. She went through a few of mine and has been buying her own. Naturally, Harry Styles, her favorite and Fleetwood Macs Rumors. 9 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
helen haywood Posted June 28, 2023 #97133 Share Posted June 28, 2023 Minnie’s vet called me yesterday afternoon with her pathology report. Unfortunately she had a malignant fibrosarcoma. Good news was early detection enabled her to get totally clear margins. (Means vet is sure she removed all of it.) It was an 11% grade…not sure exactly what that translates to except low grade. Reading about it sounds like reoccurrence is likely even though this one was completely removed. Reoccurring potentially anywhere. So I’m supposed to be on the lookout for any more lumps. She said she could refer me to a veterinary oncologist but I’m not sure radiation would be indicated if the growth was totally removed…as I was told. I suspect for some further knowledge of what options might be available down the road…if needed. I’ll ask for further clarification on Monday when I take Minnie to have her sutures removed. I appreciate and love Minnie every minute of every day so this diagnosis doesn’t change my appreciation for what she brings to my life…it just makes it more poignant. I hesitated to post this as I am aware so many of you are dealing with much larger issues and I don’t mean to sound insensitive. 28 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Far from it, and I'm struggling here to get it right .... Minnie being a cat doesn't detract (?) from her importance in your life. For you she's a very much loved member of your family. 23 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Vinyl records are making a comeback in the UK. Our Sarah has a record player and good selection of LPs. Paulines brother who lived with his mam until she died has a record player and my old LPs which I gave him over 40 years ago. Record player's are available. A lot of my LPs were soul and tamla Motown with some rock as well. When I worked for EMI records in the early 80s I had 100s of LPs and cassette's. Bob Dylan was a favourite of mine at that time.

mo&fran Posted June 28, 2023 #97141 Share Posted June 28, 2023 When I was on my last cruise, I guess about a month ago, I noticed a lump on the side of my neck. Got home, went to my PCP, got a CT scan. Sent the result to my oncologist, next a ENT Dr, next to the hospital for a biopsy. Result, I have throat cancer. It has been many years (like 20) since I smoked, so we really not sure what caused it. Just got off the phone with the oncologist, the treatment is to zap it with radiation, then 6 weeks of low level chemo. Oncologist said there should be minimal side effects from the treatment, it is very treatable. 31 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I believe I have every Bob Dylan album , he still tours and have seen him every decade since the 1970’s . Wife bought me his latest for my birthday. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jaw & ear pain, occasional headaches when waking up and an infected tooth that required a root canal. Short Story: Constant clenching of my teeth due to the stress of life-changing events. I would do it without even thinking about it, suddenly realize it after a certain period of time. Minutes? Hours? Who knows but then try to relax my jaw only to realize I was clenching it again a few minutes/hours later. And I would do it in my sleep as well which is why I would wake up with a headache and jaw & ear pain. Long Story: It came on gradually, only hurting for a while & then go away. After a few months however, it stopped going away. A trip to the dentist reveled an infected tooth so it was off to an oral surgeon for a root canal. There he did a cat-scan on my mouth - I didn't even know that was a thing - which basically gave a 360 degree, 3-D image of my mouth in amazing detail. Several of my teeth had what he called Micro-fractures. Tiny, almost invisible cracks that went deep into the teeth that allowed infections to start brewing. Needed only 1 root canal but a few others we are keeping an eye on. The cause of these tiny cracks is the pressure exerted from constanting clenching of teeth. Solution: Wearing a night guard when sleeping to soften the clenching. I hate it so instead I do some deep-breathing exercises to relax before going to bed as well as some mindful mediation during the day and just trying to be more aware of what my mouth is doing. So far, so good. I had similar issues with jaw/ear pain. Same resolution. Starting using a night mouth guard while sleeping and stopped chewing gum. Turned out I was clenching teeth/jaw through the night and didn’t know it. I honestly thought it wasn’t going to work & must have been a different issue besides clenching. I was wrong. 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I stopped smoking aged 21 almost 46 years ago. 7 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
