I got a pair of sox that could do a better job than Hegseth. Even the left one all alone. Admittedly he's a bit threadbare (the sock I mean), but hands down, he's better at his job. Up against this clown? no contest. And plus, he doesn't care if he looks pretty- he just gets the job done. #hegseth

An attempt this week by two veterans to set a world record for adaptive athletes on the “Rim-to-Rim-to-Rim” hike at the Grand Canyon fell short due to time constraints and safety concerns. Read more in our new app: ww2.stripes.com/subscribe/apps

youtu.be/aoaXmsY8TvE "Cry Me a River" was originally written by Arthur Hamilton for Ella Fitzgerald to sing in the film "Pete Kelly's Blues". He and Julie London had been high school classmates, and she contacted him on behalf of her husband, Jack Webb, who was the film's director. #guitarlesson

Who let the dogs out? Prints of my recent foray into the realm of doggy #caricature are now available: piercespawparadise.com/products/Peo... A couple of originals are still available too. We have corgi, dachshund, & French bulldog artwork. And that's just for starters. Reposts appreciated. x

You know what? for more than 60 years- heck, for more than my whole life- the USA has supported democracies large & small, new & established. Sometimes successfully, sometimes not but always with the idea that we are on the same side. Now? not so much. It's a different country than the one I loved.

Obelisk commemorating John Brown's fort in Harper's Ferry, West Virginia. He was hanged for sedition. His last spoken words were: "I believe that to have interfered as I have done – as I have always freely admitted I have done – in behalf of His despised poor, was not wrong, but right." #history

We saw the Barbara Shermund retrospective at Brandywine museum today. A free spirit and a talented artist! I think she would have been a hoot to hang out with. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Barbara... #art #cartoon #illustration #shermund

You can play a C chord in a ton of different ways! Here are three of 'em. Usually we start with C in the 1st position- it's very easy on the hand. C in the 3rd position helps us understand barre chords a little bit and C in the 8th position underlines our "CAGED" ideas. #guitarlesson #guitar

Tablature is a way of noting music for stringed instrument players who don’t read music notation. There are 6 horizontal lines that indicate the 6 strings of the guitar. As you’re looking at the tabs, the 6th or E6 string is on the bottom and the 1st or E1 string is on the top #guitarlesson #guitar

The penta minor scale uses the numbers 1, b3, 4, 5 and b7. Add the b5 note for for blues soloing, commonly used in poular music. The key of your solo will be the minor (since we’re using the b3) of your one note; if your one note is an A (5th fret of the 1 & 6 strings), it would be Am. #guitarlesson

Baby Bot, inception to finish. I'm glad I dated the note. Two and a half months of work- and I want to say 40 hours a week but I suspect it's more. Labor of love though, right? This is one of the panels. Something is wrong with the baby bot and the robot parents are checking his wiring.
