Behind The Name has this version. And starting at the 15 minute mark of a Led Zeppelin documentary we get another version. I also mentioned Beck’s Bolero with Jeff Beck and Jimmy Page, featuring Keith Moon on drums. Moon blasts and screams his way on at about 1:38. I believe I said John Entwistle also plays on this song. He does not. John Paul Jones is on bass.
Astrology is still popular. Hard to believe, but it is. And I have friends who still buy into that silliness. In the early days of my hanging out in the Z Talk chat room, I kept hearing show hosts and guests attributing various odd occurrences to some planet in our solar system being in retrograde. I didn’t quite understood what they were talking about, but I have since learned that a planet in retrograde means that its orbit appears to have gone weird.
Before smart people of the past figured out (and accepted the fact) that the earth isn’t the center of the universe, and that our sun is the center of the system of planets and other bodies, including earth; people believed the planets changed direction in their orbits around our planet. In reality, all those bodies, including earth, orbit the sun. When that was figured out the apparent retrograde movement of the planets made sense.
Retrograde is just the way the planets appear to move when viewed from earth. Besides, the planets have no effect on us anyway. Astrology is just silly.
I didn’t complain about the coverage. I didn’t complain about our new President’s speech. Nope. I complained about the fact that Pres. Trump doesn’t button his suit coat when standing.
Last winter, I became a suit owner for the first time in my life. In preparation, I studied suit etiquette or whatever you call it. I learned that when standing while wearing a suit, it is to be buttoned. Below are the rules of how men are to button their suits.
Now why the second or third button is even included on a two or three button suit coat is a mystery to me. According to the rules, it is to never be buttoned. I speculated as to why the button is even there.
That led me to an old rant about how men’s suit have become too small. At least, the hip, young fellows are wearing them that way. I don’t like the look of the coat appearing to strain at the button and I don’t care for the skinny pants and low waist lines.
Go ahead, call me a curmudgeon.

Oh, yeah. A family of bigfoots. Can’t get any clearly than that. |
But, I do have a shame on me to point out related to this story. The preview image on Facebook included in the link to the story (see photo above) looked as though the dark blobs might be American bison. They are known to hang out in Yellowstone. I suggested just that in the comment thread. However, I made that suggestion before watching the video. The video clearly negates my bison hypothesis.
