My cousin, who passed from cancer this past November.

Amazing how certain songs can take me to right to a specific time — or in this case, person.

In thinking of him and how lucky I was to be so close with him in life…it made me smile

PS: Fuck cancer. 

It’s amazing how a song or a scent can flash you back to people and/or places so quickly.  I’m glad it was happy memories.

P.S. Fuck Cancer!

Historical facts about the University of Portsmouth, UK (where I got my PhD from ):

This July marks a special month for us as we celebrate our 30th anniversary as a university on Thursday 7 July 2022.

Our roots as an institution date back to 1870 to the Portsmouth and Gosport School of Science and Art, and we became Portsmouth Polytechnic in 1969, buying Ravelin Park from the Government. In the same year our first halls of residence – Rees Hall – opened in a prime position overlooking Southsea Common.

Our students have also rubbed shoulders with cultural icons over the years, acting as extras for The Who in the film Tommy in 1974 and watching an early appearance by Nirvana at the Students’ Union on their first UK tour in 1989. 

And in 1992 after a decade as one of the largest and best performing polytechnics in the UK, we out-grew our old name and received university status. The University of Portsmouth was born.

Light years, feelings and words,
They were but paving stones and Fifthelement's light made them stars

Hopefully it doesn’t. You bring light to so many others. I’ll share some of mine with you.

Get up off this couch and turn on the air conditioner. It must be well over 80 degrees (WPB FL) in my house. I'm being lazy I gather since it's been over a month since I've been on here. I've been away front internet since that time and I can't stop posting and catching UP all over this place.

WOW.  This thread is still here! 

I also cannot remember the last time I was here - so good to see a lot of old, familiar names still around :love:

Just saw Incubus last night and seeing RATM, 2x, next week ... then PJ in September!  Woohoo!  So much fucked up shit going on in the world, and this country in particular (understatement!) - so need to find the small joys where we can.  Live music is a biggie!  Thankful for that.

Also a wee bit anxious as RATM will be my first concert indoors since 12.31.99.  I'm vaccinated to the nines so trying not to think about it. :expressionless:

That stupid commercial with Jennifer Aniston for a collagen powder. She ends the commercial with, “Because YOU…(pause)…are vital.”

Then she makes an idiotic face while smiling off into the distance.

Bitch, please.
