I hope y’all are maintaining during these tragic times. I’m holding my own, but’s it’s pretty difficult. Luckily, people write me fairly often, & it sure helps to interact. I culled a few questions from various people, & here they are, with my versions of answers.
Q 01 - “How do you come up with mashup ideas?” - Jaanis
A - After mashing for ages now, I can’t stop that process. I’ll hear a song & in my head the vocals from a different song will manifest in contrast. Like, last week, I was listening to the Who’s “Pinball Wizard”, & I started singing The Beatles’ “I Need You” ( from their album “Help!” ) over it. So I went ahead & made the mashup.
Q 02 - “Do oldies mash well with newer music, or only other 60’s oldies? - JeffnJeff
A - I say yes, but most of the Beatles Remixers Group
( www.tapatalk.com/groups/beatlesremixers/ )
members clearly prefer oldies mixed with oldies. Not like ”And Your Millionaire Can Sing" ( ABC vs The Beatles ) , a 1985 New Wave vs 1966 Classic Rock mashup I made recently.
Q 04 - “Do you still make mashups that don’t have The Beatles in them?” - Snarkee
A - When the mood strikes me, I certainly do. Recently I recalled the fine time I once had taking my Mother to go see “Funny Girl” the movie. It inspired me to make this track called “Where Is My Man" ( Barbra Streisand vs The Pixies ). It’s 1968 Pop vs 1988 Alt Rock.
• When Nancy Cartwright, the voice of TV’s Bart Simpson, was pregnant with her first child, she kept telling her midsection, “Please don’t be Bart! Please don’t be Bart!”
Music
• Country comedian Jerry Clower sometimes toured with country singer Mel Tillis, and they had a wonderful relationship. Mr. Clower would come out first to start the show, then Mr. Tillis would come out with his act. Always, Mr. Tillis would say before the last song of the night, “Ladies and gentlemen, let’s get the nation’s number-one country comic back out here on stage and let you applaud him again.” Then Mr. Tillis would invite Mr. Clower to stay on stage and sing the last song with the band.
• The comedy team of Laurel and Hardy was greatly loved throughout the world. In 1953, after Stan Laurel and Oliver Hardy had stopped making movies, they went on tour in the British Isles. When their boat came to Cobh, Ireland, the pier was lined with hundreds of Laurel and Hardy fans. As the boat docked, all the church bells in the city started ringing out Laurel and Hardy’s movie theme song. Both Laurel and Hardy cried.
• Entertaining in the days of radio could be interesting. English comic singer Anna Russell had an Aunt Bena who invited her neighbors over to listen to opera on the radio. All of her guests dressed up in formal evening clothes, and they sat in chairs arranged in rows just like they were at the opera. During intermission, they drank champagne.
Names
• In Beverly Hills, Terry-Thomas was walking (something not often done in Beverly Hills) and noticed that each street was lined with a different variety of tree. Wondering about the name of an unfamiliar species, he stopped and asked a Mexican gardener, “I wonder if you could tell me what this is?” The gardener stopped working, stared at Terry-Thomas, then answered scornfully, “It’s a tree.”
• Robert Benchley invited writer J. Bryan III, who was from Virginia, to dinner, saying that he had invited a female companion for him. At the dinner, he introduced Mr. Bryan to a Chinese woman. “This is Miss Ching Lee,” Mr. Benchley said. “I invited her for you because you’re from Virginia, and everybody from Virginia is related to the Lees.”
People with Handicaps
• When comedian Geri Jewell, whose muscle control is affected by her cerebral palsy, tried to get into a college psychology class with a door that was locked because the class was already filled with students, she first knocked on the door and then accidentally fell down some stairs. The students inside the classroom had been watching, and one informed the professor, “There’s some drunk girl out there who just fell down the stairs.” After a quick trip to the nurse’s office, Ms. Jewell again approached the psychology professor. He opened the door, looked her over, then said, “If you kids are going to take every drug on earth, why bother to come to school at all?” (After he understood the real situation, the professor became one of Ms. Jewell’s friends.)
• Jonathan Winters is a very funny comedian who has suffered from mental illness. Once, he parked in a handicapped parking space, and a woman protested, “You’re not handicapped.” Mr. Winters looked at her and said, “Lady, can you see into my mind?”
Police
• Shortly before he had to go on stage, Groucho Marx took his new car out for a spin. Unfortunately, he didn’t realize that the traffic at that time of day would be so heavy, and he found it difficult to make it back to the theater on time for his cue. In desperation, he made an illegal turn and was stopped by a policeman. Groucho attempted to explain the situation, but the policeman didn’t believe him and said, “If you’re one of the Marx Brothers, let’s hear you say something funny.” Groucho snapped back, “If you’re a policeman, let’s see you arrest somebody.” The policeman laughed, then gave Groucho an escort to the theater.
Inspired by a saxophone solo in a Leiber & Stoller song, this pop novelty instrumental is considered Boots Randolph's signature work. What is the title of this song that is closely linked to The Benny Hill Show?
On La Gomera, one of Spain's Canary Islands, a traditional language, Silbo Gomero, also known as El Silbo, is still used. How does El Silbo differ from most other languages?
Whistling without the use of an artificial whistle is achieved by creating a small opening with one's lips, usually after applying moisture (licking one's lips or placing water upon them) and then blowing or sucking air through the space. The air is moderated by the lips, curled tongue, teeth or fingers (placed over the mouth or in various areas between pursed lips) to create turbulence, and the curled tongue acts as a resonant chamber to enhance the resulting sound by acting as a type of Helmholtz resonator. By moving the various parts of the lips, fingers, tongue and epiglottis, one can then manipulate the types of whistles produced.
On La Gomera, one of Spain's Canary Islands, a traditional whistled language, Silbo Gomero, is still used. At least nine separate whistling sounds are used to produce usually four vowels and five consonants, allowing this language to convey unlimited words. The language allowed people (such as shepherds) to communicate over long distances in the island, when other communication means were not available. It is now taught in school so that it is not lost among the younger generation.

Silbo Gomero (Spanish: silbo gomero, 'Gomeran whistle'), also known as el silbo ('the whistle'), is a whistled register of Spanish used by inhabitants of La Gomera in the Canary Islands to communicate across the deep ravines and narrow valleys that radiate through the island. It enables messages to be exchanged over a distance of up to 5 kilometres. Due to this loud nature, Silbo Gomero is generally used in circumstances of public communication. Messages conveyed could range from event invitations to public information advisories. A speaker of Silbo Gomero is sometimes referred to in Spanish as a silbador ('whistler'). Silbo Gomero is a transposition of Spanish from speech to whistling. This oral phoneme-whistled phoneme substitution emulates Spanish phonology through a reduced set of whistled phonemes. It was declared as a Masterpiece of the Oral and Intangible Heritage of Humanity by UNESCO in 2009.
Use of the language declined in the 1950s, one factor being the economic decline, which forced many speakers to move away to seek better jobs to cope financially. Technological developments such as the telephone played a part in reducing the practicality and utility of the language. The language's earlier survival had been due to its role in overcoming distance and terrain, in addition to the ease with which it is learned by native speakers. Most significantly, in the period from the 1960s to 1980s, many people had turned away from agriculture and so many middle class families did not want their children to speak the language as it was negatively associated with the rural peasants.
In the late 1990s, language revitalization efforts began and initiatives from within the community started. By 1999, the revitalization of Silbo Gomero was furthered by education policies and other legislative measures. It now has official protection as an example of intangible cultural heritage.

SyFy has the movie 'The Day After Tomorrow', followed by the movie 'San Andreas'.
Singer Petula Clark has spoken out in confusion about the use of her 1964 song "Downtown" by the man who set off a bomb in an RV on a Nashville street on Christmas Day.
"Why this violent act — leaving behind it such devastation?" the British singer said in a statement posted Tuesday on Facebook. "A few hours later — I was told that the music in the background of that strange announcement — was me — singing 'Downtown'! Of all the thousands of songs — why this one?"
The classic pop song played at the end of a timed countdown, where a woman's voice had warned people to clear the area because the RV contained a bomb. Though police worked rapidly to evacuate residents, eight people were injured by the blast.
On Facebook, 88-year-old Clark tried to make sense of why her song was used but didn't come to a clear conclusion.
"Of course, the opening lyric is, 'When you’re alone and life is making you lonely you can always go Downtown,'" she wrote. "But millions of people all over the world have been uplifted by this joyful song. Perhaps you can read something else into these words — depending on your state of mind. It’s possible."
Taylor Swift may not be guaranteed to hold on at the top of the album chart for evermore, but her latest album did manage to at least land a second week at No. 1, holding off a strong debut from Paul McCartney and an Eminem deluxe reissue in the week leading up to Christmas.
Swift’s “Evermore” accumulated 165,700 album units to put it atop the Rolling Stone album chart in its second week. That includes a very healthy 102,500 full album sales, up sharply from its debut week, because week 2 was the first time the CD edition was available in stores. Two bonus tracks made their debut as part of the compact disc, a week after the surprise album’s digital premiere. “Evermore” also racked up 10,600 individual song sales and 76.6 million song streams.
In second place, “McCartney III” debuted with 111,000 album units. It, too, had very strong full album sales, of 86,000. Much of that pure sales figure can be attributed to McCartney strongly marketing the album with multiple album-cover and color-vinyl variants. The robust album sales for “III” made up for minimal streaming (3.6 million streams) and track sales (3,300).
Coming in third, Eminem’s album may have seemed like a new release, but technically, it wasn’t. Although full-length all by itself, “Music to Be Murdered By — Side B” was tagged onto his release from earlier this year to make it a double-album, officially still under the “Music to Be Murdered By” tag, now in its 46th week. Album units for the week were 97,600. Broken down, that included 32,700 full album sales, 34,900 track sales (presumably from buyers who wanted to selectively dip into new songs without re-purchasing the whole thing) and 67 million song streams.
With those three chart leaders accounted for, the rest of the top 10 albums consisted of seasonal fare, with the exception of Swift’s earlier 2020 release, “Folklore, which fell four spots to No. 7. After 22 weeks on the chart, “Folklore” still managed to sell another 23,100 full albums as a result of interest in new sister album “Evermore,” on its way to rounding up another 54,200 album units.
As holiday releases go, the top 10 was filled out by Michael Buble’s “Christmas” at No. 4, Mariah Carey’s 26-year-old “Merry Christmas” at No. 5 and Bing Crosby’s “White Christmas” at No. 6, followed by “The Best of Pentatonix Christmas, “A Charlie Brown Christmas” and Carrie Underwood’s 2020 Christmas album, “My Gift,” in the seven-day period that ended Dec. 24.
Two murals from the world-renowned secretive street artist Banksy were defaced over the Christmas weekend in New Orleans.
The two murals, known as Umbrella Girl and The Gray Ghost, which were produced by the British artist in 2008, were discovered vandalised in New Orleans, Louisiana, on Saturday, after holes were cut into the plastic coverings protecting the pieces and the artworks were tagged by red spray paint.
“Team Robbo” was spray-painted on the Umbrella Girl mural, while “King Robbo” was tagged on The Gray Ghost sometime between Christmas Eve and 26 December, according to NOLA.
Banksy’s iconic Umbrella Girl mural is thought to be symbolic of the failures of the city’s levee systems and flood walls to protect residents during Hurricane Katrina in 2005, according to the New York Post.
While The Gray Ghost is one of 15 stencil pieces put up by Banksy in New Orleans in 2008, which shows a man covering up a graffiti painting of a sunflower with grey paint.
Tis the season to be jolly: A record 39 holiday songs have dominated this week’s Billboard Hot 100 chart, including nine holiday tunes in the Top 10.
Mariah Carey’s ubiquitous hit, “All I Want for Christmas Is You,” leads the pack at No. 1 — marking the tune’s fifth time at the top spot. Carey’s original holiday classic, released in 1994, reached the No. 1 spot last year 25 years after its release.
Each holiday season, Carey’s song and other holiday tunes begin to climb the Billboard charts as their popularity resurfaces through streaming, radio play and even digital sales. Brenda Lee’s “Rockin’ Around the Christmas Tree” is No. 2 on the Hot 100 chart this week, followed by Bobby Helms’ “Jingle Bell Rock,” Burl Ives’ “A Holly Jolly Christmas” and Andy Williams’ “It’s the Most Wonderful Time of the Year.” José Feliciano’s “Feliz Navidad,” which celebrated its 50th anniversary this year with an all-star remix featuring Lin-Manuel Miranda, Jason Mraz and others, is No. 6.
The only non-holiday song in this week’s Top 10 is 24kGoldn and Iann Dior’s “Mood,” which topped the Hot 100 chart for six weeks this year and is currently No. 7. The multi-genre song is still No. 1 on Billboard’s Hot Rap Songs and Hot Rock & Alternative Songs charts, respectively.
Other holiday songs in the Top 10 include Dean Martin’s “Let It Snow, Let It Snow, Let It Snow” at No. 8, followed by Wham!’s “Last Christmas” and Chuck Berry’s “Run Rudolph Run.” Some acts have multiple holiday songs on the chart, including Bing Crosby, Kelly Clarkson, Michael Bublé, Perry Como and Carrie Underwood.
A federal judge in Iowa who has warned against political corruption is ridiculing President Donald Trump (R-Corrupt)’s pardons, including those issued to convicted Republican campaign operatives and former members of Congress.
“It’s not surprising that a criminal like Trump pardons other criminals,” senior U.S. District Judge Robert Pratt of the Southern District of Iowa told The Associated Press in a brief phone interview Monday. In a bit of humor, he said: “But apparently to get a pardon, one has to be either a Republican, a convicted child murderer or a turkey.”
Pratt was referring to pardons Trump granted to his former campaign aides convicted during the special counsel's Russia inquiry, former GOP congressmen who committed crimes, and security contractors convicted of killing innocent civilians in Iraq. Trump also pardons turkeys — this year two from Iowa — annually before Thanksgiving.
Pratt has been on the bench since his appointment by President Bill Clinton in 1997. He has had a reduced caseload since 2012, when he assumed senior status.
He noted that the framers of the U.S. Constitution sought to stop U.S. officials from “enriching themselves” while in office by banning gifts and payments from foreign powers. Ongoing lawsuits have accused Trump of illegally profiting off the presidency through his luxury Washington hotel. A White House spokesman declined comment on Pratt’s remarks.
The United States sold the ambassador’s residence in Israel for more than $67 million in July, according to an official Israeli record of the sale that shines new light on a transaction that has been shrouded in secrecy.
The State Department confirmed the sale in September but refused to identify the buyer or disclose the sale price of the sprawling beachfront compound in the upscale Tel Aviv suburb of Herzliya. On Tuesday, it said the sale had been “open and transparent.”
The Israeli business newspaper Globes has identified the buyer as the U.S. casino magnate Sheldon Adelson, a strong supporter of both President Donald Trump and Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu. A representative of Adelson said the billionaire had no comment.
At more than $67 million, it appears to be the most expensive single residence ever sold in Israel. Congressional aides told The Associated Press in September that lawmakers in the House and Senate were looking into whether the sale of the residence complied with regulations.
The sale helped to cement Trump's controversial decision to relocate the U.S. Embassy from Tel Aviv to contested Jerusalem in 2018 and to recognize Jerusalem as Israel's capital. By selling the residence, it would make it harder for future presidents to reverse the decision to move the embassy. President-elect Joe Biden has criticized the decision to move the embassy to Jerusalem but says he will not reverse it.
The Lincoln Project, which spent much of the year trolling President Donald Trump (R-Loser) with TV ads aimed directly at him, is deploying the tactic in South Florida.
Starting Wednesday, if Trump turns on the TV at the two locations where he’s spent time since Dec. 23 — his Mar-a-Lago Club in Palm Beach or the Trump International Golf Course in West Palm Beach — there’s a chance he’ll see the Lincoln Project’s latest.
The ad buying and tracking firm Medium reported that Lincoln Project has bought TV time in the West Palm Beach market from Wednesday through Jan. 5. Trump is scheduled to be in the area until Jan. 3.
A major pillar of the The Lincoln Project’s 2020 strategy was aiming to torment an audience of one — Trump — through advertising on cable shows he’s sure to watch on channels such as Fox News. That’s the aim of the latest effort, which seeks to drive a wedge between Trump and Vice President Mike Pence, who will preside over the Jan. 6 joint session of Congress at which the electoral votes making Joe Biden the next president will be counted.
Ryan Wiggins, the Lincoln Project’s senior communications adviser, said the organization would spend about $150,000 to air the spot, entitled “Pence,” on broadcast TV stations in the West Palm Beach market and on Fox News Channel.
Japan may soon be producing the world's first wooden satellites which would burn up when they plunge back to Earth without releasing harmful substances into the atmosphere, in an effort to reduce space trash.
Sumitomo Forestry, a Japan-based wood processing company, said they have begun researching on an ideal wood material for space and will carry out research in partnership with Kyoto University and test the material in extreme environment on earth. They announced that the satellite can be ready by 2023.
The partnership says the problem of space debris will eventually affect the environment of the earth. Quoted by BBC, Taka Doi, an astronaut and professor at Kyoto University said: “We are very concerned with the fact that all the satellites which re-enter the Earth's atmosphere burn and create tiny alumina particles which will float in the upper atmosphere for many years.”
Space junk, also called space pollution, comprises human-generated objects, such as pieces of spacecraft, tiny flecks of paint from a spacecraft, parts of rockets, satellites that are no longer working, or explosions of objects in orbit flying around in space at high speeds, according to Nasa.
As of October 2019, the US space surveillance network reported nearly 20,000 artificial objects in orbit above the Earth, including 2,218 operational satellites.
