THE BEST ALBUMS OF 1976
I feel like doing something very different today. Since the 2026 Grammy Awards are coming up this weekend, my curiosity plunged me deep down the rabbit hole of a musical retro-rediscovery. The result is this list and ranking of outstanding albums from 50 years ago.
I know — it’s hard to believe all of these albums are now half a century old. Geez.

Today was my first time to eat at Jackson’s.
This is a locals’ bar and grill — with emphasis on the bar. Rustic. Nothing fancy. Straightforward service. Attentiveness is about what you’d expect at a truck stop cafe.
Jackson’s is known for their hamburgers and steaks. Cowboy food.

Yes, Trump said every single word of this statement below, copied verbatim.
And, it wasn’t an isolated malapropism, nor an innocent slip up.
This is willful ignorance and a complete disregard for history. It borders on mental illness. It’s also grotesquely unacceptable that someone so dumb as President of the United States would actually believe this, let alone say it out loud in front of the world:
Read More“I’ve always said, ‘Will they be there, if we ever needed them?’ And that’s really the ultimate test. And I’m not sure of that. I know that we would have been there, or we would be there, but will they be there?…We have never really asked anything of them. You know, they’ll say they sent some troops to Afghanistan, or this or that. And they did – they stayed a little back, a little off the front lines.”
ATHEISM AND NON-RELIGIOUS POPULATION PERCENTAGES IN GREAT BRITAIN
Here’s an interesting breakdown on the percentages of “ATHEISTS” and “NON-RELIGIOUS” people living in various regions of Great Britain. I have a few thoughts on this map, including some questions. Perhaps others will be interested, and even venture an explanation.

A SCARY PICTURE IS WORTH A THOUSAND WORDS
Whatever side of history THIS GUY is on, I want to be on the OPPOSITE side.
Rarely does imagery and simple instinct compel such a natural and honest gut reaction. Trust your gut instincts. When you see excrement, you hurl. It’s natural to expectorate that which is vile.
This is STEPHEN MILLER, the vile horror movie that’s come to American reality. He’s the most powerful figure in the TRUMP REGIME, orchestrating chaos with the intent to subvert democracy, destroy opposition, and create a frightening vision of crackpot Dark Age dystopia. He’s also the cruel driving force of the crackdown on immigrants, harassment of American citizens, and the ultimate violator of civil liberties.
Rarely does history provide such a clear and unmistakeable image of evil and horror.
The question is — does AMERICA want to align itself with this, or will we wake up and recognize TRUE EVIL for what it is?
