.@JimmyOctober Makes A "1 On 1" Connection In New Single

Trini Artist Jimmy October returns with new music to liven up your life. He’s celebrating his birth month in a big way, and looks to get the people moving for the rest of the year. Earlier this year he stepped out with “Rum & Calypso“, but now he’s on some “1 On 1” vibes. Produced by friend and long-time collaborator Brooklyn Decent, Jimmy October is making that important connection on “1 On 1”.…

Remember it's summer, so treat your guests to "rum & calypso" when you wanna set the tropical, nostalgic vibes right, won't you? Jimmy October insists, give it a try/listen. The video above is inspiration. Caught this cat at Miss Lily's in NYC for a random pon di floor performance mid-week, and he gave it his all. Didn't even seem drunk. Wait, does he even drink? I feel tha'z mauby in he glass haa :)

Is there any truth to the 1980 October surprise theory?

The New York Times published a story earlier this year where Ben Barnes -- a Republican supporter of Reagan's in 1980 who had once served as Lieutenant Governor of Texas, Speaker of the Texas House of Representatives, and protege of former Texas Governor John Connally -- confirmed that the Reagan campaign absolutely encouraged Iran not to release the American embassy hostages before the election because Reagan would give the Iranians a better deal if he was elected President. Barnes admitted that he was present as Connally passed that message around while on a trip to the Middle East in order to get word to the Iranians. It's not exactly a smoking gun because virtually everyone seemingly involved in implementing the October Surprise is dead other than Barnes, but it's a weird thing for Barnes to lie about 45 years later, especially considering how close his relationship was with Governor Connally. Plus, we know that there were shady contacts between people in the Reagan Administration and Iran because of the Iran-Contra scandal.

I think there is definitely some truth to the theory, but I also believe that the Iranians were more than happy to spite President Carter by not releasing the hostages until literally the moment Reagan took the oath of office. The Iranians were still furious with the Carter Administration for letting the Shah come to the United States for medical treatment after he was forced to leave Iran as the Iranian Revolution exploded and Ayatollah Khomeini returned to become Supreme Leader. Carter had also helped broker the Camp David Accords between Israel and Egypt, which also infuriated Iran and much of the Islamic world. Plus, Carter had ordered Operation Eagle Claw -- the failed attempt to rescue the hostages by force -- and that was seen as an act of war. So, the Ayatollah and leaders of Revolutionary Iran had no love lost for President Carter and weren't interested in doing him any favors before he left office.

The October Surprise that many people overlook is the one which took place in 1968 shortly before the Nixon vs. Humphrey election. When it looked like there might be some progress made in peace talks to bring the Vietnam War to a close, Nixon and his advisers got word to the South Vietnamese to hold off on working toward peace until Nixon was elected and could give them better terms. It was such an egregious act that LBJ actually told people around him that he felt Nixon had committed treason and that he had the blood of American soldiers on his hands for sabotaging peace talks. We even have the tapes of LBJ's phone calls after finding out about Nixon's actions where President Johnson straight-up says, "This is Treason!"

Jimmy hobnobs with royalty: Romania's Queen Marie, with Mayor Walker on her arrival in New York, October 18, 1926, as she started her extended journey across America.

The queen is immortalized in Dorothy Parker's well-known ditty:

Oh, life is a glorious cycle of song, A medley of extemporanea, And love is a thing that can never go wrong, And I am Marie of Romania.

Okay but. I made this post about what Fox finds attractive about Bail and Breha, and like after things do get a little better, his brother's ask again. Well, they don't really ask. They all get drunk and one of them makes a comment about abs being hot or something, and Fox (being tipsy) goes "you don't know what's good. you ever hugged a big man? Of course you haven't, if you had you would know what's good"

(He also later makes some comment about how "she knows what she is doing", but at that point Bly is too drunk to ask the question he had the last time around)

“Oh massively and it’s not something I ever take for granted, in fact, I’ve got a moment in the show which I put in deliberately, where I kind of just like sit on the stage, just before— it’s the intro of one of the songs; and just take it in. ‘Cause it’s so, you know there’s an element of— ‘cause there’s so much pressure up there; sometimes, there’s an element of almost autopilot, and shows will pass you by unless you’re present in that moment. And as I’ve said I’ve got the luxury of such incredible crowds, so yeah I’ve really tried to be as present as possible during those shows, ‘cause it’s special man. It feels really special.”
