My comment on Irvington HS (Jr. Varsity) - The Crosley March - 2022 Santa Cruz Band Review.
There are 20 I's in the rank of violins alone and 2 more I's in the eleventh violin in the flute rank.
My responses to Infidel753 and SickoRicko in PBS Terra explains 'Here's EXACTLY What to Do When the Next Megaquake Hits: Cascadia Subduction Zone'.
I can relate. Although they're down the list, earthquakes are one of the things I don't miss about California now that I live in Michigan. As I wrote last year: "the prospect of this quake has dissuaded my wife and me from moving to the Pacific Northwest when I retire." It might make you move out when you retire.

My response to expat in Vox asks 'Are zoos...bad?'
Welcome back! Your comment is a good summation of the pros and cons of zoos. It also fits with a human-centric environmental worldview, which is a topic I cover with my students. I usually use hunting and fishing as examples, but I might add zoos thanks to you!
My response to smith in 'The Crown' leads Gold Derby TV Awards with six wins.
Normally, I'd delete your off-topic spam, but your grammar and spelling are laughably bad and your link doesn't work, so I'm keeping it for the comedy value. Also, flattery will get you nowhere. LOL!
My response to Lesson Plans in 2022 EMA Awards nominees.
Flattery will get you nowhere, but I approve of the service you're advertising and it's just barely on-topic, so it stays. Lucky Viking.
My comment on Which film do you think is winning Best Action / Adventure Film!? at the Saturn Awards Instagram page.
"The Greatest Showman" got a nomination for Action Film in 2018, so it's not unprecedented.
My comment on Paranormal Activity (Darksynth - Synthwave - Retrowave Mix).
"They're here!"
My comment on 'Double, double, toil and trouble
Fire burn and cauldron bubble'.
"Macbeth" also has this famous couplet from the witches: "By the pricking of my thumbs, Something wicked this way comes." That became two book titles, "By the Pricking of My Thumbs" by Agatha Christie and "Something Wicked This Way Comes" by Ray Bradbury. I'm a diabetic who has to prick my thumbs every day to check my blood sugar, so this couplet has special meaning to me.
My comment on Spooky songs from the Harp Twins for Halloween.
Welcome to everyone coming here from Infidel753's Link round-up for 30 October 2022! Thank you for stopping by! Also, thanks to all my German, French, Canadian, and Swedish readers!

My comment on Broken Peach: Singing Spanish goths and witches for Halloween
Since I last left a comment here, I've featured Broken Peach's Halloween songs in PBS Eons reflects on Piltdown Man for April Fools Day, a Flashback Friday holiday special and A Halloween concert from Broken Peach. May this be a lucky 13th comment on this entry!
