"I don't want to set the world on fire" is getting louder in my head since Trump won again.

I definitely read this as "Fallout-Boy fans" at first and was not prepared to deal with my own age

My small rural town still has it's own AM/FM radio station that covers the whole county that i absolutely love. It's a golden oldies station that mostly plays music from the 50's -70's. My car is too old to have Bluetooth, and the CD player doesn't work, so i usually listen to that when i am driving. Beach Boys, Grand Funk Railroad, Gordon Lightfoot, Jackson 5, Cher, Beatles, Rolling Stones, and other artists that topped the Billboard chart 70 years ago that have aince mostly been forgotten.

Ain't nobody forgetting the Rolling Stones.

I didn't intend it that way. But we are hittinng a precipe as boomers start dying off and a lot of great, but lesser known music will be forgotten about, e en if it canstill bee streamed. Artists like Tony Orlando, Mungo Jerry, Paul Revere and the Raiders, or Johhny Rovers will end up only being known by a niche group of music nerds much like big band and swing artists.

I will always be thankful to Fallout for allowing me bond with my grandmother over songs she hadn't heard in decades

I just heard that Nat King Cole song Orange Colored Sky today and was trying to figure out how I knew that song.

We live in an age of poverty, greed, violence, destruction. Indeed, the very seat of the federal government, Washington D.C., has been reduced to what is now known as the "Capital Wasteland." The Capital Wasteland... How did it come to this, America? How did your leaders allow the most powerful nation on Earth… to die? The answer is really quite simple: Incompetence. Incompetence at the highest echelons of power. We put our trust, our faith, in halfwits. Our intrepid leaders had everything they wanted! Power. Wealth. Prestige. And it made them lazy, America. Oh yes, and laziness breeds stupidity. Rest assured, I will not make the mistakes of my predecessors. When John Henry Eden builds a country, he builds it to last. The American way. Don't you, my darling America, deserve that? Don't you deserve a future free of war, and fear, and terrible uncertainty? Of course you do. As President of the United States, you have my solemn pledge that I will never rest, NEVER rest, until we all have what we deserve: A place to truly call... home
