I suppose there’s still the possibility that the deal improves but it’s hard to imagine Iran making major concessions post ceasefire that it wasn’t willing to make with bombs raining down. [image: 1775641067845-img_1833.jpeg]

Hey @bachophile - what’s the mood like in Israel? How about among the pundit class?

I will only state the obvious, and if others can’t see between the lines that are separated by a mile apart, then I don’t know how any conversation or debate about what’s going on can’t even be entertained. The man is held under Putin‘s thumb and takes his orders. Cold stop every move and decision. He has made helps Russia it as if Putin himself we’re at the helm, trying to destroy this country from within all the other crap that goes along with him. It’s just serving his ego and greed. He doesn’t give a shit about this country nor people, and his only beholden to the people wealthier than He, but the bottom line is Putin has the goods on him, and Trump will blow up the Earth to prevent its discovery to the general public.

I am not a boastful man. But i am a realist and i can say that this piano was the closest thing to perfection the one time have been able to play it. What i quickly learned upon playing it, was the incredible pallette of colors this piano is going to provide depending on the touch i press these keys. Incredible possibilities and the easiest piano by far to play PP without that builtin in stress of trying to apply just the right pressure to produce it. It was simple as pie. And i leave one story that the restorer seller shared with me….. Shortly after he aquired this sd10 , a friend came over to visit and this friend had just purchased a brand spanking new fazioli concert grand for well over 200k. He sat down at the baldwin and played it for one minute before standing back up in disgust. He turned and told mr. Pakpou that he just wastes a quarter million dollars. He realized he had bought the perfect yet sterile piano as opposed to this sd10 which bared its soul that struck him in the heart quickly. I am nothing but grateful for this opportunity that has landed into my life and special thanks to all those incredible craftsmen and employees of the Baldwin factory in Cincinnatti who just may have created the finest concert grand of all time. Hats off to your pops Mik and all his coworkers. They made a smart business move due to our victory over Hitler. Now i just need Jon to get over here so he can then give his totally unbiased opinion of where this piano sits in his hierarchy of the best of the best.

I just started back to HIIT on the Airdyne the past week or so. Supposed to build VO2 max faster. I’m getting upwards of 110-120 bpm. Plateaued at 67 lbs on weight loss even thought my waist keeps shrinking. Maybe the weight training. I didn’t have to work this hard in my 30s. Grr.

@taiwan_girl Not sure if it will be enough. At the moment, voters seem to have had enough of PM Orbán. Maybe not quite enough yet… https://www.atlanticcouncil.org/dispatches/dont-count-orban-out-yet-hungarys-opposition-faces-an-uphill-battle-on-april-12/?utm_medium=email&_hsenc=p2ANqtz-94UJAwx1jgnFaa0Ka7EJjt_3Gjp0vNqBZu19xbTkOrZrE9j0DXbAa-yNTRIoRgQWhUOcQmbPEX6b5yigBCyidPQ5MevA&_hsmi=412665873&utm_content=412665873&utm_source=hs_email

@taiwan_girl stepping in vomitus is bad enough, but imagine riding public transportation and someone drops a deuce in front of you. https://nypost.com/2020/04/27/subway-operator-confronted-by-defecating-straphanger-on-2-train/

@jon-nyc said: Big if true. https://x.com/techlayofflover/status/2041311289591435399?s=46 Fun! I guess I'm glad my position is non-cancellable, unless the whole country ceases to exist.

I don’t doubt his motivations either and think him to be genuinely sincere. Embedded in that essay was the notion that actually it might work out ok. Agreed. While he has hope that reason over passion will prevail, he also has faith that robust established institutions of checks and balances will continue to ensure the rule of law over unfettered power.

I hate to admit it, but he's actually great with kids.

Very succinct.

I’ve had lots of Cannanau while vacationing in Liguria. You don’t see it much outside of that area of the Mediterranean. Nice.
