<p style="line-height: 100%; margin-bottom: 0in;"><u><span style="font-family: verdana;">Saturday,
November 4<br /></span></u><b style="font-family: verdana;">The Birddog Blues
Band</b><span style="font-family: verdana;"> plays Blues (what else?) at The Fharmacy in Lake Mills from
7 to 10 pm.</span></p>
<p style="line-height: 100%; margin-bottom: 0in;"><span style="font-family: verdana;">Yup. That's all for
now.</span></p>
<p style="line-height: 100%; margin-bottom: 0in;"><span style="font-family: verdana;">But wait! Surely
there must be some other pearls of wisdom, some tidbits of
titillation to offer you.</span></p>
<p style="line-height: 100%; margin-bottom: 0in;"><span style="font-family: verdana;">Okay. How about
this?</span></p>
<p style="line-height: 100%; margin-bottom: 0in;"><span style="font-family: verdana;">Year's end
approacheth. Soon, November. And then December. And then... Damn!
Another year gone by. And, leastways around these parts, that
revelation dawns in a cold, gray light. Winter in Wisconsin. Some
love it. More don't.</span></p>
<p style="line-height: 100%; margin-bottom: 0in;"><span style="font-family: verdana;">I see it as an
opportunity to read some books, be it with the intent to entertain
(myself) or to tackle the big, eternal questions, or to wrestle
with the current sorry state of the world.</span></p>
<p style="line-height: 100%; margin-bottom: 0in;"><span style="font-family: verdana;">Take last year round
about the turning of the calendar. I was on a quest. Music. This
thing that I have bathed and showered in and raced after and swum in
and floundered in for, how long? What is music? Why is it? How
is it? How is it that I can play and sing some songs, tunes and ditties,
but I can't answer the big mysterious musical questions with
authoritative certainty?</span></p>
<p style="line-height: 100%; margin-bottom: 0in;"><span style="font-family: verdana;">So I turned to books
(bless you, public library system). Three of 'em: <br /></span><i style="font-family: verdana;">This Is What It

Rogers; </span><i style="font-family: verdana;">This Is Your Brain On Music</i><i style="font-family: verdana;">: The Science of a Human
Obsession</i><span style="font-family: verdana;">, by Daniel J. Levitin; and </span><i style="font-family: verdana;">How Music Works</i><span style="font-family: verdana;">, by
David Byrne.</span></p>

she became a very successful record producer, s</span></span></span><span style="font-variant: normal;"><span style="color: #212121;"><span style="letter-spacing: normal;">he
was longtime sound engineer for Prince. And now she's a professor of
cognitive neuroscience. </span></span></span><span style="font-variant: normal;"><span style="color: #212121;"><span style="letter-spacing: normal;">She
writes an easy read and </span></span></span><span style="font-variant: normal;"><span style="color: #212121;"><span style="letter-spacing: normal;">offers
good reasons</span></span></span><span style="font-variant: normal;"><span style="color: #212121;"><span style="letter-spacing: normal;">

guilty pleasures, and to back off dissing music you
don't like.</span></span></span></span></p>
<p style="line-height: 100%; margin-bottom: 0in;"><span style="font-variant: normal;"><span style="color: #212121; font-family: verdana;"><span style="letter-spacing: normal;">Daniel
Levitin was a professional musician before he went all egghead PHD on us. He
goes a lot deeper into the science of it all than Rogers, but even if some of his reference fly over your head, it's still a fascinating
trip.</span></span></span></p>
<p style="line-height: 100%; margin-bottom: 0in;"><span style="font-family: verdana;"><span style="font-variant: normal;"><span style="color: #212121;"><span style="letter-spacing: normal;">And, even

aren't your cup of tea, David Byrne</span></span></span><span style="font-variant: normal;"><span style="color: #212121;"><span style="letter-spacing: normal;">
is a brilliant dude with a lot to say about music and his experiences
listening to it, writing it, and performing it. Recommended. </span></span></span>

We like snow. We need snow. It keeps us alive. It sustains our existential balance. And the same is true of the truly cold winter days and nights. A deep and thorough freeze is what keeps pestilence and disease from running rampant through our beautiful world. So quit yer bitchin'! Take advantage and catch up on all those "indoor" tasks you've let slide.</span></p><p><span style="font-family: verdana; font-size: medium;">To help you join in the spirit of things, here's a little ditty along with appropriate pix, from my good buddy Richard Wiegel.

Unexpected. Unbidden. A tune, a musical phrase, a hook. But not
from nowhere, of course. Rather from the distant past, those days
when the brain was young and spongy, impressionable, formative,
when a song, or just enough of one, could get stuck in the tissues
and lie in wait (for decades!), waiting to bubble up and pop open in
a moment of blissful empty-headedness. </span></p><p><span style="font-family: verdana; font-size: medium;">An <b>earworm</b>.</span></p>
<p style="margin-bottom: 0.14in;"><span style="font-family: verdana; font-size: medium;">So it was recently with <i>Far Away
Places</i>. An innocuous melody. A dreamy, drifty, waltzy kind of
thing. One day I’m walking along and there it was, singing itself
plaintively inside my head in a voice much like my own, filled with a simple longing. All I could remember of its origins were that
they went way back. <i>Far away places, are calling to me...</i> I
hardly knew the words at all, but the melody and sentiment were alive
in my head. I “knew” it by feeling.</span></p>
<p style="margin-bottom: 0.14in;"></p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgiTTiA_E0azkQ57kkm0NRuDzkJqXHr0c6LoKCgNJ7rxwCjpOiTQY9VHeamPspafgXYmKPb567Afy5pEgbwgp0fD23MT5qn5RFpdw1C0qI30LJyIT0LK5qR-xBQClRKZ4DDQnvqcdpSKegLsmEZZ7OcMIS_ohr3zd0uok_y_az6HCVQCUVOdNiS0naM2w/s512/Screenshot%202023-01-15%20100131.jpg" style="clear: right; float: right; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-left: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="507" data-original-width="512" height="198" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgiTTiA_E0azkQ57kkm0NRuDzkJqXHr0c6LoKCgNJ7rxwCjpOiTQY9VHeamPspafgXYmKPb567Afy5pEgbwgp0fD23MT5qn5RFpdw1C0qI30LJyIT0LK5qR-xBQClRKZ4DDQnvqcdpSKegLsmEZZ7OcMIS_ohr3zd0uok_y_az6HCVQCUVOdNiS0naM2w/w200-h198/Screenshot%202023-01-15%20100131.jpg" width="200" /></a></div><span style="font-family: verdana; font-size: medium;">Not so very long ago I would have started
asking around, browsing used record racks, trying to track down the
source of this thing. Now, like the rest of the world, I go to
Wikipedia or YouTube. There I learn that it was written in 1948 and
soon became nearly simultaneous hits for Margaret
Whiting and then Bing Crosby, followed soon after by Perry Como and Dinah
Shore (pictured). All were released before I was born, but because I remember
<i>The Dinah Shore Show</i> playing on the family TV set, I suspect
it was her version that planted the worm.</span><p></p><p style="margin-bottom: 0.14in;"><span style="font-family: verdana; font-size: medium;">I found a Willy Nelson version on
YouTube (a duet with Sheryl Crow), and nothing wrong with it (we love
Willy), but also a Sam Cooke version, more proof of his voice’s
Midas touch (we idolize Sam).</span></p>
<p style="margin-bottom: 0.14in;"><span style="font-family: verdana; font-size: medium;">But what’s with earworms, anyway?
The surprise appearance of <i>Far Away Places</i> hit a sweet spot
for me, but don’t we think of earworms as annoyances? Songs that you once wished you would never hear again, yet keep
coming back to vex you like an old injury? You know. <i>The
Pina Colada Song</i> or <i>Afternoon Delight</i> or <i>Muskrat Love</i>?
</span></p>
<p style="margin-bottom: 0.14in;"><span style="font-family: verdana; font-size: medium;">I have a vague sense of the
term taking hold in popular usage some years back and wondered if it
would even turn up in any of my dictionaries. It didn’t. But the Merriam/Webster online
dictionary had it: “a song or melody that keeps repeating in one's
mind.” Okay, very succinct. But what about an OED-style reference
to the date of a first-published use of the word.</span></p>
<p style="margin-bottom: 0.14in;"><span style="font-family: verdana; font-size: medium;">My oldest dictionary (The Oxford
Universal Dictionary on Historical Principles, copyright 1955) refers
me to “corn” for clarity on “earworm” but the entry preceding
it, "earwig," catches attention. Yes, we're talking about those nasty
insects with the rear-end pincers, suspected by our ancestors of
crawling into ears and taking up residence in brains (“wicga”
means insect in Old English). OED tells us that “earwig” as a
transitive verb means “to pester by private importunities; to bias
by secret communications; to insinuate into the confidence of,” and
as a noun means “a whisperer, flatterer, parasite.”</span></p>
<p style="margin-bottom: 0.14in;"><span style="font-family: verdana; font-size: medium;">So, while earworms may pester us, or
somehow insinuate themselves into the fiber of our consciousness,
they are unlikely to ever feel as negative or threatening as earwigs.
Like worm holes, those possible interstellar portals to the past,
future, or who-knows-what kind of far away places, ear worms,
mysterious little burrowers in our brains, may turn out to be good
things, at least occasionally.</span></p><p style="margin-bottom: 0.14in;"><span style="font-family: verdana; font-size: medium;"><b>McMuscial Calendar</b></span></p><p style="margin-bottom: 0.14in;"><span style="font-family: verdana; font-size: medium;"><u>Saturday, January 28</u><br />Come on out to <i>The Pfharmacy</i> in Lake Mills to hear <b>The Birdddog Blues Band</b>.

get serious for a minute. About elections.</span></span></div>
<p style="line-height: 100%; margin-bottom: 0in;"><span style="font-family: verdana;"><span style="font-size: small;">I
know people who work the polls at election time. In fact, I am one of
them. And I have always been impressed with how seriously the people
around me take their tasks, how careful and conscientious they are
about getting it right, and how the system is set up so that even if
someone makes a mistake, or if someone tries to cheat or game the system,
there is a paper trail that is clear and will always lead to the
simple, numerical truth of who got more votes and who got fewer. </span>
</span></p>
<p style="line-height: 100%; margin-bottom: 0in;"><span style="font-family: verdana; font-size: small;">In
the 2020 Presidential election, in Wisconsin, Biden got 20,682 more votes than
Trump. Two piles of paper ballots and the Biden pile is higher by
20,682. Counted and recounted. Biden won. Trump lost.</span></p>
<p style="line-height: 100%; margin-bottom: 0in;"><span style="font-family: verdana; font-size: small;">Anyone
who says there is voter fraud in my state is either ignorant or a
liar. If you are ignorant, then you owe it to yourself and your
fellow citizens to educate yourself. If you are a liar, you should be
ashamed and you should knock that shit off.</span></p>
<p style="line-height: 100%; margin-bottom: 0in;"><span style="font-family: verdana; font-size: small;">Now,
let’s make a little music.</span></p>

is in the summer air, and that air is more likely outdoors,
because that’s where that pesky COVID virus is less likely to
spread. Yes, the nasty little bug (actually, a submicroscopic infectious clump of protein and smaller than any bug) is still
around. Being vaccinated doesn’t mean you can’t still catch it or
spread it, but being fully vaccinated <u>does</u> mean you’re less
likely to get sick, and if you do get sick, more likely that you’ll
be far less sick. 99.99 doctors out of a hundred say so, so take
their word. Likewise for masking in close quarters.</span></span></span><p></p>

cleverly monikered “The Fairlanes,” bringing Bluesmuzik to the
bars, bistros and beer tents of the Midwest. That was then. These

<span style="font-family: Verdana, serif;"><span style="font-size: medium;">Perfunctory
Preface</span></span></p>
<p style="font-weight: normal; margin-bottom: 0.14in;"><span style="font-family: Verdana, serif;"><span style="font-size: medium;">Here’s
where we normally string out a few pearls of wisdom and/or wit to
edify you and lead you to the calendar of musical events below. </span></span>
</p>
<p style="font-weight: normal; margin-bottom: 0.14in;"><span style="font-family: Verdana, serif;"><span style="font-size: medium;">It’s
also an opportunity for me to consider this question: What’s on my
mind? Well, in addition to handling the basics of food, shelter,
clothing, and the makings of music, these days the old mental landscape
is laden with a fair amount of fear and loathing. </span></span></p><p style="font-weight: normal; margin-bottom: 0.14in;"><span style="font-family: Verdana, serif;"><span style="font-size: medium;">The fear is for the future, as in,
will there be one for our children? The loathing is for bullies, be
they on the street corner or across an internationally recognized
border, and for the tendency among some to cheer bullies on, or
convince themselves that it’s none of their business, or that the
victims had it coming. Anyone can be human, but being humane takes
courage.</span></span></p>
<p style="font-weight: normal; margin-bottom: 0.14in;"><span style="font-family: Verdana, serif;"><span style="font-size: medium;">I
hope we can all enjoy some summer fun very soon (suggestions just
below), but I hope even more that we have the courage to do the right
thing when it’s our turn.</span></span></p>
