I heard this while I was out and about yesterday on the truck radio, and it struck me that a love song from 1975 applies to the situation that we find ourselves in as a country in 2024, even though I'm not so sure "I think we will make it".
My shop radio used to be tuned to that station all the time but for some reason, it no longer comes in well even though it's not too distant. Now the radio is tuned to another local station that plays mostly classic rock along with the occasional change of pace. The lack of variety is not enough for me to buy a new radio, but I'm pretty sure I won't hear this next one on that station.
The singer on this one is also Melissa Manchester, this time from 1972. This one used to get some regular airtime on the FM stations back then. Like the other song, this one rings true in '24 - there truly are a whole lotta "flukes of the universe" out there now days.
I've been staying busy with some yard work and thinning out the bookshelves. I found a new home for a few of them, and I've got a box started to donate to the library for their book sale. Not much of an inventory reduction yet, but it's a start.
Picking up a wooden top for the iron side table I made a while back. Piddlin' around on a couple of other things on the to-do list as well. Can't do much, but a little something every day.
Scheduled for the stress test next week. They had a cancellation, otherwise it would have been the end of the month. Not too concerned about the results. I'm hoping after this they'll quit dickin' around with everything else and address the real issue sometime in the immediate future. If someone tells you they felt something in their chest tear and can point to the spot, that would be a clue as to where they should start looking. I've still got one more test scheduled, though.

I remember that song. I would have never heard or thought about it again for the rest of my life.
