♫ Time Of The Season ♫

Filosofa's Word

A few years ago, rawgod mentioned this song and the band, the Zombies.  I’m reduxing it tonight because … do I really need a reason to redux a good song?

The song was written by Zombies keyboard player, Rod Argent.  Says he …

“‘Time of the Season’ was the last thing to be written (for the album). I remember thinking it sounded very commercial. One of my favorite records was George Gershwin’s ‘Summertime;’ we used to do a version of it when we started out. The words in the verse – ‘What’s your name? Who’s your daddy? Is he rich like me?’ – were an affectionate nod in that direction. The album title’s slightly high-flown, isn’t it? As is the quote from The Tempest on the back. It was a very flowery time in all sorts of ways. Me and Chris (Chris White bassist and co-songwriter) shared a flat with…

Toddler Accidentally Shoots and Kills His Pregnant Mother

Diane Ravitch's blog

A two-year-old boy in North Carolina found his parents’ gun and played with it while his mother was doing laundry. The gun went off, striking her in the back. She was able to call her husband and the police. She was 33 weeks pregnant. She died, as did the child she was carrying.

Republicans should really decide whether they are pro-life or pro-death.

Saturday Surprise — Weird Buildings And A Cute Kitten!

Filosofa's Word

This is a reprise of a Saturday Surprise post I did back in 2019.  I rather thought a break from the darkness of today’s political and social news would be nice, but I found myself uninspired to create something new.  Long-time readers have probably forgotten about it by now (fingers crossed) and can be awed all over again by this funky architecture, and newer readers will hopefully find some fun here!  Either way … it’s Saturday, the beginning of the weekend, so I wish you a fun and happy weekend, dear friends!


Ever hear of Frank Gehry?  No?  I hadn’t either, until I came across some strange-looking buildings and found that they were all designed by the same architect:  Frank Gehry.

Frank GehryFrank Gehry is a Canadian-born American architect, residing in Los Angeles.  A number of his buildings, including his private residence, have become world-renowned attractions. His works are cited as being…
