My relationship with Microsoft Edge is like being force-fed a halfway decent Italian sub. Its not a bad sandwich, but the fact that its being shoved in my mouth makes it hard to enjoy.

Is it a bad thing that I make an active effort to include the Wii Sports theme in my improv guitar solos?
To all 0 of my followers: I'm playing T-Bones in Concord, NH tonight! Lol

Just ran out of fretboard oil...I was all set to do some serious maintenance tonight :(

Found something remarkable (and also quite sad).

In 1997, Wired published "The Long Boom", a hyper-optimistic article about how we'd achieve Utopia by 2020.

The authors included notes on some "scenario spoilers"—negative events that might send is in a worse direction.

...and those spoilers turned out to be almost spookily accurate.
