Stelbel to the rescue.ZOOOM..

Italic isn’t Italic-y enough in this font!

Meanwhile… if you sink your iPod… you’re sunk.

Water damage… tsk tsk…

Meanwhile, if you sync it, you may be toast anyway.

Some years ago, my niece gave my sister her “old” iPod when she got a new one… loaded with music she had legally bought, over several years.

She told her mom she didn’t move any of it to her new one.

My sister decided to buy ONE song from the iTunes store…

Downloading it wiped all of her daughter’s music off of the device, because she wasn’t the original buyer.

big giant OOPS!
Sorry Susan! I really didn’t mean to delete the comics the Stel posted and that you commented on.
I’ll repost that one to accompany the new comic posted today.

That’s why I don’t buy MP3’s or MP4’s any more. I bought quite a few in my day, but after a few computer upgrades (and one theft) I’m now not “permitted” to play any of my music. My records, tapes and Cd’s still work fine though…

Love the pedestrian scragger on the front of the hood. I’m sure there are a few that deserve to be scragged, but try to refrain anyway. They’re too hard to clean off.

My sole post for today. Mainly because there was no right side of the bed this morning so I’ll shut up before I get in trouble.

Ode to joy. Yeah. What an understatement.
I do not know what they are saying, i don’t want to know. That would take away, for me, the joy i get just listening to the *voices*!
The musical instrument with the widest range *is* the human voice. 🙂

Thanks, Tigressy. I’m always surprised at the numbers of people who know the lyrics.

This video went viral a few years ago… or maybe 10…

I remember reading quite a bit about it then…

It doesn’t look exactly random… how many musicians would have been wandering around this tiny town with their instruments?….

and in fact, it turned out to be put together as a commercial for a Spanish bank!

That doesn’t spoil it… I mean, a beautiful story isn’t spoiled by being a movie instead of real life.

I think I’ll search it again right now for the details I can’t remember.

Right… it’s in the small Catalonian city of Sanabell, not far north of Barcelona, in 2012…

Here’s the word straight from the source….

Actually a small local bank….

https://www.bancsabadell.com On the 130th anniversary of the founding of Banco Sabadell we wanted to pay homage to our city by means of the campaign “Som Sabadell” (We are Sabadell) . This is the flashmob that we arranged as a final culmination with the participation of 100 people from the Vallès Symphony Orchestra, the Lieder, Amics de l’Òpera and Coral Belles Arts choirs.

The video went viral, and won several awards.

I don’t believe any of the YouTube “flashmobs” happened spontaneously — they’re obviously heavily pre-planned and rehearsed…

Cleo needs to go to one of the churches around there. They get plenty of money and they would be happy to give Cleo plenty of food. Right?
