As a fan of a wide variety of popular (and not-so-popular) music from the 1950s (and sometimes even earlier) up through the present, one of my bucket list projects for years has been to put together a list of my 100 favorite songs of all time. At some point I decided that, once I got around to figuring that out, I could put it out on a blog, for the infinitesimally small proportion of the Internet world that might be interested. So, here we are. While the Top 100 will be a major focus, I also plan to post on a variety of other musical (and occasionally non-musical) topics, in which you may or may not be interested. (If a particular posting doesn’t ring your bell, you’re only a few clicks away from a dancing cat video on YouTube.)

Why tearing down Fauci is essential to the MAGA myth

https://www.washingtonpost.com/opinions/why-tearing-down-fauci-is-essential-to-the-maga-myth/2021/04/05/b3e87740- 963c-11eb-a6d0-13d207aadb78_story.html

 

While this entire column by Michael Gerson is worth reading, I absolutely had to post a link to it just to slip in the following two quotes:

 

“Watching Sen. Rand Paul (R-Ky.) debate science with Fauci during committee hearings is like watching Albert Einstein being disputed by his dry cleaner.”

 

And in conclusion: “Fauci is practicing epidemiology. His critics are practicing idiocy. Both are very good at their chosen work.”
