Are you the type of person that has music playing in your head at all times? Can you a hear song in your mind just as well as if it was playing out loud? I can. Drives me nuts sometimes but it's just the way my brain functions. When I open my eyes each morning - I never know what will be playing in my head. This morning it was "Heartbreaker" by Led Zeppelin. It wasn't the beginning of the song - it was the guitar solo (which is about midway through) . I thought, man- excellent solo by Jimmy Page. I started thinking about guitar solos that have really stuck out to me. Some songs can go from good to great due to an outstanding guitar solo. I thought of other songs in which the guitar solo literally makes the song. So, Ive decided to list some of my fave guitar solos this morning. Mind you, this doesn't include songs that are nothing but a guitar solo (an example being "Eruption" from Van Halen). It has to be a regular song that contains
For some reason when I woke up yesterday I had this thought in my mind - endings of movies. I tried to think of endings that really stuck with me. There have been movies with great endings (I think the ending of The Godfather 2 is great). Other movies have moved me emotionally (the ending of "Doubt"). Others left me completely uplifted ("Rocky" for instance). But could I come up with one that really stunned me? An ending that stayed in my mind for a long time? I could only come up with one.

It was released in 2012, stars AnnaLynne McCord, and was written and directed by Richard Bates, Jr. I'm going to leave a video here that contains some scenes from the film and an interview with McCord and Bates, Jr. It does not include the ending. I didn't want to spoil it. I can only say I was STUNNED by the ending of "Excision".
The New York Mets. As I type this, The New York Mets have 46 wins and 52 losses. They are in 4th place in the National League East, 17.5 games behind the division leading Atlanta Braves. This may not be too bad especially when you consider The Mets are only 7 games away from a possible Wild Card playoff berth. However, it's real bad when you consider what this team is being paid. It's the highest payroll in baseball - in the area of 360 million dollars. Add to this Steve Cohen, the owner of The Mets, will pay 110 million dollars in luxury tax - bringing the total amount spent on this team to around 470 million dollars. By contrast, the currently most efficient team in baseball, The Baltimore Orioles. First place in the American League East. 60 wins, 38 losses. This for the price of 61 million dollars, with no luxury tax. There are other teams in pro sports that suffer from inefficiency - but no one comes close to 2023 The New York Mets.
