Planted a cherry tree. Thought about history and the lessons we teach.

“No one is above the law,” she said, “and I hope that this prosecution sends a clear message that we will vigorously investigate and prosecute individuals who violate our national security laws without fear and without favor.” It sends a clear message alright.

Responsibility To Water, R2W. It saves lives.

19 years old, but still looks good with some fresh shellac on the bottom and new brass stem bands.

For when you want smell like Alfred Thayer Mahan.

Can one invoke R2P to water the neighbor’s plants if they are dying?

The end result of 20 years of Israeli policy.

When Trump withdrew from JCPOA in 2018, Mike Pompeo gave a speech outlining a set of demands that any new agreement would have to meet. If we want to judge, not just the outcome of this war, but the broader project of renegotiating the Iran deal, this is a useful yardstick.

Giraffe motif. #motorcycle

Agreement mavens, how common is it that two parties will announce they have a deal, but won’t release the text?

As oil literally rains down in Russia, a reminder that no military can reasonably or effectively strike millions of solar panels across thousands of miles. That’s actual energy security…

Sitting in Logan Airport and the guy across from me is reading Bloch’s Strange Defeat and I am so jealous. One of many books I have always wanted to read.

Just dined with two Dartmouth undergraduates who had never heard of Bluesky or Graham Platner.

Motor Monday. #motorcycle

Madison folks, come see my band, Lost Wax Process (lostwaxprocess.bandcamp.com/music), with the Blue Zone Band (bluezone.band) and Th Up Sett at the Gamma Ray next Wednesday, 6/3.

And if jazz is more your thing, come see my other band, the Subterranean Jazz Project, at Gib's next Tuesday, 6/2: www.gibs.bar

Oh whaddaya know, our video for “Charlie Sheen Reaches Out to the Feds” is out. Directed by my old friend Tim Kirk (Room 237) — Tim Is the best and I love how this came together youtu.be/7PEJmPTIzqk?...

Because aircraft design Bluesky is about to hit its stride, I will just say that what the Ukrainians need to shoot down drones is a mini Bronco with a rear gunner. Clear field of fire to the rear and down, so you are flying away from the fireball rather than towards it.

Once again, Lost Wax Process must make clear that we are not playing the Great American State Fair in Washington DC. However, we will be playing at the Gamma Ray Bar, 121 W. Main, Madison, on June 3. We will be joined by Th Up Sett and the BlueZone band. Music starts at 8:00.

All of this right here All 43 of the GOP senators who could not bring themselves to vote to convict Trump after 1/6 should have that decision tied around their necks for all time

The president of the United States mobilized a mob of his supporters to attack the Capitol in an effort to overturn an election that he lost. The attempt failed and the rioters were prosecuted for their crimes, but he was not.

Let’s call it “Enduring Freedom.”
