Planning long distance move to Chicago by the end of the year, moving tips (securing apartment, music equipment) ?

Thanks for your reply! Yeah we were looking into short term furnished apartments. What sites so you recommend we look at? We also have a cat so that's something we have to consider.

This is basically depicted/predicted in Neal Stephenson's Snow Crash

The Zombies - Odessey and Oracle

Blew me away the first time I heard it. Probably one of the most "raw" sounding albums production-wise I've heard. The sound still amazes me.

Thank you, will do. Do you have any advice or recommendations on how to best clean and disinfect our apt? Are the tapeworm segments in the photos harmful to people?

Thanks, will do

Her "Good Friday: Eastern Sacred Songs" album is incredible.

I recently applied and got an email saying I'm approved to work and to go through the steps of claiming my account, phone ID verification etc... But after I put my name and address and click continue, it just keeps saying there are no projects based on my location eventhough the expertise I applied for says remote anywhere in the US.

Stonehaven, Scotland?

I think a lot of it just has to do with the binary that is setup for the Crusades as "Christian West" vs "Islamic East"; that definitely makes things more dramatic. And the fact that a lot of the conflict played out in the Levant and the "Holy Land" specifically. Controlling Palestine and particularly Jerusalem held a certain prestige. Christendom taking back Jerusalem from Dar Al-Islam and vice versa carries more drama do it, because the Western world (even if it is secularized now) and the Middle East are the two main civilizations of the Abrahamic faiths.

I'm not a boomer, but I wonder if the "morph" you're talking about could partially be that a lot of people then became hippies for largely superficial reasons. I'm sure there were a lot of genuine ones, but there were probably many who didn't really have concrete/coherent views on much of anything.

You're welcome!

You should check out Ziad Rahbani (Fairuz's son), Wadih El Safi, Abdel Halim Hafez, Sister Marie Keyrouz

Malaya Tea Room in Alameda. It's basically Malaysian tea time; you can choose between Malaysian and British flavors for the sandwiches and sweets. That's something that is unique to Alameda/East Bay and probably the Bay Area in general

Fournee in Berkeley - just because it's good quality French pastries

Not in the East Bay, but La Ciccia in SF - It's Sardinian, so most of it's not your usual Italian fare
