And then a cab runs you over while you're sleeping in bed.

My aunt's out of ICU, by the way. They drained the equivalent of two Coke cans worth of excess fluid from around her heart. They're saying she needs two weeks of rehab, which seems extreme for someone who was walking two weeks ago.

Glad she's being taken care of.   Here's to a good rehab.

Apparently, the Rolling Stones are paying for (and playing at) Hubert Sumlin's funeral.  Knowing Jagger, he'll find a way of making it tax deductible, eh?   Still, it's a nice gesture...  Considering how much these guys (and other british musicians of the same generation) owe to people like Sumlin, it's only fair.

They have a long history of being decent about funerals. I remember a story about a longtime road manager of theirs dying and Mick and Keef dropped everything to catch the red eye to Ohio.

They're still nuts though. The second part of the story is, the guy's widow sees them and says how touched she is they came and can she get them anything? Sure, they say, we'll each have a double espresso and a double vodka rocks.

It was 9 am on Sunday in a funeral parlor in Ohio.

Or maybe they flew the private jet. Doesn't really matter. It's the second part that makes it a good story.

No idea. Just a gif I found. Hypnotic though, eh?

We're getting a tree this weekend too. C is looking forward to it big time. This is the first weekend in a month we haven't traveled, so I'm looking forward to taking it easy. I'm also considering driving out to Staten Island to Mandolin Brothers and playing some mandolins.
