– Theblaze.com, run by Glenn Beck; Newsmax.com, twitchy.com; Foxnews.com; National Review, Breitbart.com and there are so many more that spew biased stories without any sort of apologetic concern; Fox News is the most mainstream, but on the web, you see a ton of people that post articles on The Blaze and News Max that never have anything positive to say about Obama or Hillary or pretty anyone that’s not GOP or Tea Party; I rarely see any stories being posted by my ultra conservative friends from any of these sites that calls out any of their own when they get caught lying or in a bad situation; that’s why I stay away and try to avoid reading any of there stories; there is no substance to any of them that’s credible.
– back in 2005, my wife organized a Mother’s Day event at my niece’s home in California where we all gathered for food and to spend time with my mom; my brother, sister and a good deal of their family and children were there on that Sunday that Mother’s Day fell on; at the time, I didn’t realize it would be her last Mother’s Day, but many years later, it was good that my wife made it happen for all of us kids to get together then; my mom passed away in April 2006, missing Mother’s Day of that year by a month; if any of you have an older mom, make sure to spend time with her; you won’t have any regrets as the years go by, just great memories.

News Links
Without the reference links, you had me wondering if you’re just making this stuff up! I had to Google the whole Apple/Spotify thing (since I never heard of it) and it ends up that it’s all traced back to an article on The Verge, which appears to be 100% here-say? I can’t find anything directly attributable to support their story. Three months later and it doesn’t seem that anything came of it? I dunno.
First off, you just gave me a valid reason to put back the links to the articles. I will have to put them towards the bottom so the show notes get formatted better. And yes, the article was mostly here-say. This is what happens when I play catch up.
