Hm, very interesting comparison. I had never heard of Author and Punisher and so I went and watched some of their/his videos and, wow. I shall watch some more -- great, weird stuff. I do have some longer pieces that are more in that vein, which now I shall have to post probably.
Thank you for your listen and comment! I really appreciate it and you certainly got me thinking!

"Red Beans and Rice" -- loved it.
I don't know if my grandkids are lucky but I sure am!
My five-year-old granddaughter Eden is my best friend, we just love hanging out together.
Anyway, if you don't have grandkids yet I hope that someday you too can experience the joy they bring to your life just when you think you're getting too old to enjoy anything anymore. And if you do, then you too are lucky.
Thank you for the listen and the comment, I really appreciate it!

Right on. A person of taste. And obviously, kind and brilliant as well. Thank you, and happy eating!

Thank you, Wayne. Refrigerated bananas are tricky, as I'm sure you know, because if you don't eat them right away when you take them out of the cold, they turn black rather quickly, and squishy. I can eat a somewhat squishy banana but only with a crunchy accompaniment like peanuts or pepitas. I also have a TinySong about peanuts and several about trailmix where I've worked out the finer details of these foods. I'll be reporting back shortly, tune-wise, with some of those important learnings.

Thank you! I had fun making it so I'm glad you had fun hearing it!

Oh, I'm so happy to hear about your grandkids. Because I know that you're just like me, surprised at how lucky you are to get to be a grandparent. I'm sure you never knew you had so much love inside of you. And when you get older, the love is all about serving others, not yourself anymore; you kinda get past that a little bit. i'm never so happy as when I'm throwing a ball with my grandson or playing Barbies with one my granddaughters. People look at us and think, oh you sad old fuckers. But we're really the lucky ones!

Thank you, Crucethus. Modern, yes. Contemporary, no. But at least I'm still hanging on. I have a line in one of my songs that goes, "One thing to know about me, I just keep going." And it's true! Thanks you as always for your support.

Thank you!

Thank you! I appreciate your listen and your comment!

You guys are being too nice on this one. It's not good to encourage me, you know. Consider yourselves warned. I may do something REALLY ridiculous.
Thank you thank you thank you for this comment and all the comments throughout the years.

All right, I really appreciate that. I have several more of these, because they're so fast and easy to do, and my mind tends toward immediate gratification. So please stay tuned. And thank you!

Thank you for the comment, rockoff. I wish your acquaintance that combines medicine and music the best -- sounds like a great combo.

Thank you, dimestop. I call it a TinySong(TM).
Made to amuse my grandkids. (They couldn't care less though.)
Yes, I tend to go the opposite direction of the herd. Those in the herd may not like it, but that's to be expected.

It should make you uneasy. If I recall correctly (being too lazy to look it up right now) the number of cells in our microbiome is 100 trillion, whereas the number of cells in our body is 10 trillion. If this is correct (unlikely) then we're outnumbered 10 to 1 in our own bodies. They could take us over at any moment. Luckily, they seem disposed to let us live so they can continue to feed off us...

Thank you, Wayne, and good luck with the doctors! I have had many ear infections and many poor ear doctors, so be careful! If your hearing is diminished, it may be because you have fluid in your eustachian tube, something a competent doctor can deal with easily but an incompetent doctor will misdiagnose as permanent hearing loss. So be careful and good luck!

Thank you for pointing out that I am the best melodist who ever lived. That's what you meant, right? I can tell that you are an extremely discerning and brilliant person for having made such a commment, and I thank you from the bottom of my unusually shaped heart!

Danke, danke. I am nothing if not weirdness.

Thank you! Just so you know, the trap track is just as it was. I didn't change it, just used it as is, and let it shape the lyrics accordingly. That break in the middle is there in the trap track, for example, and that shaped my little story, the first half going in and the second half coming out of the desert after nearly expiring. The shape of the story was determined by the shape of the music, which was handed to me on a silver platter. I love this type of exercise - or game. Find a great trap track and lay lyrics on it as is. Thanks, Tumbleweed, I have used many of your loops and have always appreciated your musicianship, which far exceeds mine.

Thank you for your wild and wonderful comment, I really appreciate it. It so happens that I watched a documentary just the other day that featured David Attenborough. He's got to be like 180 years old, and yet there he was in the Badlands of Montana handling dinosaur bones, then there he was at a museum in Britain, then there he was in Africa somewhere with the natives. If I can do that stuff when I'm his age, well, that'll be something.
It's fun to learn stuff and then to imagine based on that, back into the past, for example, or out past the nearest stars to the black holes that occupy the center of every galaxy. What I try to do more and more is to keep an open mind, to let no one do my thinking for me, because they're all wrong, to think my own thoughts, and that obligates me to learn as much as I can about everything so that I can think the right thoughts. Anyway, such is my philosophy of the day! Thank you for listening and responding and getting me thinking!

Thank you!
I have a monkey hat that I sometimes wear to remind me of where we came from. Just kidding. I wear it to amuse my grandkids.
The past is interesting to learn about because it's always changing. Or, that is, our understanding of it is.
I'm interested in the sunken continents like Beringia and Doggerland. I believe they're rich with ancient settlements, artifacts and bones that would completely change our human storyr, but we can't get to them as they're underwater. It always amazes me that, the more we know, the less we know. Everything I learned in school is now wrong. But, I guess, that just keeps it interesting.

Thank you!

Thank you! I guess I like getting my ear drums blown out, whereas others do not. Thank you for the input, I appreciate it!

Thank you, Alien. I appreciate the input very much since I have no idea what I'm doing. Thank you!
