Hard not to agree #Zelensky -- world leaders are a bunch of cowards, and 'accomplices to terror' !!

Trump spent fours years with Putins hand up his ass playing him like a puppet while Jared Kushner held secret meetings with Russia. Fuck them all. https://t.co/Z2jxSkRHOb

You know I got this but it took me two tries. I had the correct answer first but typed the wrong number as I read two of my digits backwards.  Oh well.  I think I would of been top 5.

You know maybe I will post my solution of the previous days problem if that is any good for people.  So here is yesterday's solution.  You can look at yesterday's post to see the question.

Tim's Picks streak ended at 2 days.  Starting again with 3 Leaf picks.  I am not a Leaf slappy by any means but they are playing Arizona and Arizona put up 9 the other night against the Wings.  Maybe it will be another track meet and that is good for Toronto.

What do you get when you get the former singer from The Deadboys , the former guitarist from The Damned and the bassist from Sham-69 in 81?  You get The Lords of The New Church.  The song I give you took its roots from the movie Apocalypse Now.  I love the smell of napalm in the morning.  The song is Russian Roulette.  Yeah I had to go with a good tune and the Ruskie bent.  Oh yeah Fuck putin.

It always amazes me how the people from any country on earth are more politically-sophisticated than Americans— and by far.

Ukraine is the latest example. The people there elected Volodymyr Zelensky.

Americans elected Donald Trump.

Before I get to the song of the day I have to show you this Tik Tok video my daughter sent me on her first in person day of school at the U.  She had no in person classes last semester as a frosh.  Love it.  The prof is from Ferris State in Michigan.

If you are in southern Ontario get ready for Snow-megadon.  When I think of  post punk bands of the late 70s and early 80s that had a political bent I think of Gang of Four.  From their 82 album Songs of the Free, I am selecting the song I Love A Man In A Uniform.   Remember you can follow me by clicking on the blue follow button.   If you are making any amazon.ca purchases please click on my links below first as I will get a small commission on anything you buy even if it is something else.

Song of the Day for Friday

 Welcome to the weekend.  Lots of  hits from yesterdays banned song.  Here is another banned song from The Cure  called Killing An Arab off their first US album from 1979 Boys Don't Cry and was their first single.  It is based on 1942 novel by Camus called L'Etranger or in English The Stranger.  It was banned by many radio stations and they put one of those parent advisor stickers that the PMRC and Tipper Gore wanted on the album.  During the Gulf War and 9/11 it got more popular.  In 2005 Robert Smith changed the lyrics to Kissing an Arab, in 2006 to Killing Another and for their 40th anniversary he switched it back to the original lyrics.    If you are making any amazon.ca purchases please click on my links below first as I will get a small commission on anything you buy even if it is something else.

 Well you made it to Friday.  F'ing all right.  Since yesterday was Tones On Tail, the Bauhaus side project, today has to be Love and Rockets.  This was Daniel Ash's band after Bauhaus broke up in 83.  Their most commercial success was So Alive in the late 80s but you know me I am going with my favorite dance song from them, Ball of Confusion.  This is a cover of an old Temptations song.  If you are Canadian and making any amazon.ca purchase please click on my links below first as I will get a small commission on anything you buy even if it is something else.

 Okay I will follow the convoluted line of thinking that allowed me to have 1969 and 1968 as songs of the day.  Today's song is Summer of 69 but not Bryan Adams as I detest the little punk.  I should of beat the tar out of him at Gracelands back in 88 but that is another story.  Todays song is the cover by MxPx.   If you are Canadian and  making any amazon.ca purchase please click on my links below first as I will get a small commission on anything you buy even if it is something else.   Thanks.

Watch this string of logic.  Yesterday's song was by The Sisters of Mercy who did a cover of Iggy Pop's song 1969 so todays song is 1968 by Smoke Or Fire.  Thought you could follow that.  If you are Canadian and  making any amazon.ca purchase please click on my links below first as I will get a small commission on anything you buy even if it is something else.   Thanks.

 I love Teenage Bottle Rocket.  Lots of post punk great songs.  Even greater was the fact that when they started touring this summer in Florida they charged $1000 plus if you were unvaccinated or $18 if you were vaccinated. Check it out here.  Man let the Delta virus get the unvaccinated.  So the song of the day is Skate or Die.  I used it on a couple of my sons hockey videos.  He doesn't like it but too bad.
