Tune of the day\n"No Boom Boom" by Chuck D and the Fine Arts Militia https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-WUxa6aXeNU \n\nThis is an adaptation of John Lee Hooker's song "Boom Boom" in the form of a protest against the invasion of Iraq that was impending at the time of this performance in February 2003. \n\nThought of the day\nTake a moment to note the demise of Cheese Nips, which filled American grocery store shelves from 1955 to 2020. Yet another change in our world wrought by the pandemic? (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cheese_Nips)\n\nQuote of the day\nA bargain with insomnia: if I lie in bed pretending to be asleep, is that good enough for you so that I won't have to fall asleep standing up?
