Arts: music, songwriting, photography, films, books. Anything that touches the senses nicely. OK, I can't avoid politics, but then...none of us can.

This is Murphy Campbell from North Carolina. Been following her for a while now on YT. Writes, plays banjo and sings mostly traditional and trad-style songs from the region. If all you do is like a video and/or subscribe to her channel it's a move in the right direction.

The strings all resonate at the same frequency (40MHz)? How do you play chords then? Rubbish! These scientists really should be working harder.

OTD 4/10/57: Sidney Lumet's timeless classic 12 ANGRY MEN premiered.

3 Oscar noms, inc. Best Picture. #5 on IMDB Top 250.

One of best casts ever assembled: Henry Fonda, Lee J. Cobb, Martin Balsam, E.G. Marshall, Jack Klugman, Jack Warden, Ed Begley. Real jury duty is never so riveting!

Our #wildhorse #sanctuary in Oregon is vast at over 9,000 acres. It covers a lot of land at different elevations reaching a peak at close to 5,000 feet up above Sheep's Rock. We finally got some of the snow we have been hoping for all winter.

The Pentagon just told the Vatican the US military "can do whatever it wants wherever it wants".

Then reminded the Vatican that a military power in the 15th century kidnapped, tortured and murdered the pope.

Then the Pentagon told the Vatican "you better choose a side."

That's where we are now.

Great first episode. Full series already available on BBC iPlayer. So that's all good, then.
