And thanks for your slightly-belated vote for Civil Wars, but I'm afraid it wouldn't hve been enough to turn the tide against Robert Randolph.

Oh well...I love all the tidbits you threw out for us to nibble on in this post. I did check out your BOTB edition and if I had had the opportunity to vote (I am on a blog break) then it would have been The Civil Wars. I love their jazzy harmonizing cover. The instrumental rendition was fabulous, but it didn't quite do it for me.

And it's not like I KNEW all this stuff about Jeff Goldblum and the other things I mentioned -- it all came from Google and the Internet. I just think it's fun to try and find links of connections and weird coincidences. I started this post wanting to touch on three things -- BOTB results, a new Newsday piece I put together about the drive-though funeral home, and to include a song since I hadn't put any music on my blog on a while. While looking for a way to connect them, I stumbled on the fact that Oct 22nd was Jeff Goldblum's birthday. It was alos the anniversary of JFK addressing the nation about the Cuban Missile Crisis, but that seemed less likely as a topic of connection, lol. Once I googled Jeff Goldblum and Billie Jean, I found "The New Show" thing, and so that was too cool of a coincidence to ignore. The rest kind of fell into place...StratPlayerCJFhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07341440379767694905noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6838020557998499402.post-44215293102162859082014-10-24T13:02:59.206-04:002014-10-24T13:02:59.206-04:00No worries, FAE.

I admire his work immeasurably, because I am, despite all attempts at sophistication during tenure in 2 centuries, still a galumphy guy and am reconciled to remain one. Thank you for bringing him up in a positive way!Geo.https://www.blogger.com/profile/16221314320558128986noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6838020557998499402.post-30340415858846107232014-10-22T22:00:51.546-04:002014-10-22T22:00:51.546-04:00I remember being totally freaked out in high schoo...I remember being totally freaked out in high school by the story that Paul McCartney was dead and that it had been covered up -- even though the hoax occurred way before I was in high school.

I could blame it on the fact that I've been sick and on a lot of pain meds, but the truth is I'm an airheaded dumb blonde. I generally read and listen to the BOTB posts early in the AM, while still in bed on my phone. the phone doesn't let me comment, so I have to go back and do that. Unfortunately, for some reason I missed coming back to your post. I am truly sorry. Like I said 'dumb blonde'.<br /><br />The results post was as informative as your music (BOTB) are. I always learn something I didn't know before. Now, it's not always information that I will need or use every day, but none the less. I always learn something.<br /><br />I too am glad Jeff Goldblum is not dead. I enjoy his dry sense of comedy and I forgive him for 'The Fly' and cheeseburgers.farawayeyeshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17578277501054242356noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6838020557998499402.post-28194075251368593152014-10-22T14:26:55.715-04:002014-10-22T14:26:55.715-04:00Steve Martin is a riot.
