200 BASSISTS play the most famous bass line of all time
and I am having trouble recognizing the most
famous bass line of all time?
It is familiar to me but I don't know who played it!
(I did not read the comments cause I want to recall the song myself)
The song was done by Queen. 'Under Pressure'
Game one Box Score
https://www.espn.com/mlb/boxscore/_/gameId/401467554
HOUSTON — Kyle Tucker said he wanted to get this World Series over with quickly, and darned if the Houston Astros right fielder didn’t try his hardest to make it so.
But, well, like just about everyone in baseball, he underestimated the Phillies.
Faced with their largest deficit in the postseason — a five-run hill built on two Tucker home runs through three innings Friday night — the Phillies rallied to win a Game 1 for the ages. They knocked out future Hall of Famer Justin Verlander in the fifth inning. Manager Rob Thomson managed like it was Game 7. And J.T. Realmuto hit a go-ahead solo homer in the 10th inning of a 6-5 victory that will rank among the unlikeliest in the Phillies’ 140-year history.

Ironic. On the day Elon buys Twitter for $44Billion I read an article that Bono...
Took him awhile...but, @62
Bono Has Found What He’s Looking For: Capitalism
"I ended up as an activist in a very different place from where I started. I thought that if we just redistributed resources, then we could solve every problem. I now know that’s not true. There’s a funny moment when you realize that as an activist: The off-ramp out of extreme poverty is, ugh, commerce, it’s entrepreneurial capitalism."
Take out the “ugh” in the last sentence, and that paragraph could have been written for Capital Matters.

Tonight's debate was pretty much embarrassing for the people of Pennsylvania.
ERIE, Pennsylvania—In this highly anticipated debate against Republican Dr. Mehmet Oz, Lt. Gov. John Fetterman was asked to square two conflicting statements: one saying he’s never supported fracking, and another saying he’s always supported fracking.
“Uh, I do support fracking, and, I don’t—I don’t—I support fracking, and I stand, and I do support fracking,” Fetterman said.
As he tried unsuccessfully to square the two opposing sentiments, a debate watch party that’d been largely cheery and jabbing at Oz fell silent.
Some viewers turned to one another, scrunching up their faces and gritting their teeth. One person in the back even let out a groan.
I'm thinking Mrs Fetterman should say
"John, let's take a time-out. You recently had a bad stroke &
we need you healthy, for the family"
but politics is a nasty bizness...
So many people, so many stories...
Eva I been following for months. She has made it to Prudo Bay~
Someone recently introduced me to Noraly.
Noraly does what Eva does. But Noraly does it on a motorcycle/scooter/bike!

Never understood it...can anyone explain British Politics to me?
They had a Queen that reigned for 70 years! They now have a King that is over 70.
Their Power is ceremonial...they have no say in Governing!
Boris (in the blurry forefront) led for a while.
Boris had too many office parties with out masks during covid & was forced to resign.
Then Liz Truss got elected (not by the people, but by the politicians)
And, apparently Liz messed something up about tax cuts for somebody & (they) have now tossed out Liz.
This dude here, Rishi Sunak is gonna be the next Prime Minister of Great Britain...an Obama look-alike/gonna be...
Oh yea, he & his wife are worth more than
$800million!
and I think that's a good thing! He's not gonna be bribed........

They wrestled with a grizzly bear & survived! Dude in the hospital bed said...
"I saw this friggin' monster bear attack my pal & had to do something. I mean, we're on the same wrestling team!"
so I grabbed the monster bear by the ear & that pissed the bear off so he started attacking me & I ran like Hell!@#$!...I'm thinking the grizzly is now deaf in the left ear & did not hear in what direction I ran.

An INSANE day of games! October 15th, 2022, was one of the best days of ...
Baseball can be exciting!
Remember The Mueller Investigation & The Mueller Report & The Mueller Testimony & The Russian Collusion & the hubbub of a 2016 stolen election?
It is actually still active.
Just last week there was a trial for a guy named Danchenko, who has been accused of lying to the FBI.
https://www.politico.com/news/2022/10/14/judge-trump-dossier-source-00061938The public no longer has an interest in this story, but I do.
"We really pulled one over them, didn't we pals!'
I remember Mueller 'acting' old & confused at a congressional hearing.
At the Danchenko trial last week, the attorneys were not so much interested in what Danchenko actually did, as they were interested in what Robert Mueller & his band of anti-Trump prosecutors were up to in their nearly two year investigation about Russian collusion!
I truly believe that History will find these people despicable.
I took a Nap!
2 AM east coast time... The Phil's are headed to San Diego
The Padres beat the #1 seeded LA Dodgers
The Padres have some fancy new uni's this year
They also have some really good hitters & pitchers
Should be fun to watch!
If Schwarber hits well the Phils will win!
I'm thinking the Phil's rally call should be:
"IT'S SCHWARBER TIME"
...fingers crossed...
What the heck is wrong with these old farts?
He is 81, she is 47.
He could have just gotten a really exotic salt water fish tank to tend to!
But, of course, you cannot take a salt water fish tank to parties on the road to show off!

Baseball Strategy...
The pitching plan: reported by Jim Salisbury...
The Phils hit three home runs in the 8-3 clinching victory. Brandon Marsh's three-run shot in the second inning was the big one.
But what made the day work was the pitching plan. And the execution of it.
After losing Game 2, Phillies officials knew they'd have to come up with a pitcher for Game 4. With no obvious candidate, they met after Friday's win and came up with six of them.
In what was essentially a bullpen game, a relay race to 27 outs, Noah Syndergaard, Andrew Bellatti, Brad Hand, Jose Alvarado, Zach Eflin and Seranthony Dominguez combined to get those 27 outs. They held the Braves' offense to four hits and three runs, struck out 15 and walked none.
Now on to California...

How about if we have a major sporting event without Referees, Umpires, Judges or Stewards? I Love that a 65 to one shot did ...
