Hiatus Time

I finished that thing I said I'd finish, and now I'm going to take that break I talked about. There will be no more posting and reblogging on this account until I feel like the time has come to do those things again. Probably not for a while.

If you'd like to contact me or see what's bouncing around in my noggin, you can find my wordpress blog at https://inkteastoneleaf.com where I currently post some low-stakes thoughts every weekend or so.

If you'd like to peruse either of my tumblr sideblogs, they are https://asidesandbsides.tumblr.com/ and https://agoodsongeveryday.tumblr.com/ . They're both done posting as well.

If you'd like to see what I'm reading, you can follow me on Goodreads.

If you'd like to see what my birds are up to, you can follow them on Instagram.

Electric vs Gas [Explained]

Transcript Under the Cut

[White Hat, with his palm raised, is talking to Cueball.] White Hat: Electric motors and gas engines each have their pros and cons. White Hat: On one hand, electric motors are cleaner and more efficient. On the other hand, electric motors are more powerful. White Hat: So it's hard to say which is better overall.

Brian Epstein pictured with some of the groups he manages on June 18, 1963. These are three of the most listened-to bands of the early 1960s: The Beatles, Gerry and the Pacemakers, Billy J Kramer and the Dakotas. Between them they sold 2,000,000 records in six months.

On Paul McCartney’s 21st birthday, before the notorious party at Auntie Gin’s house, Brian hosted a quieter get together at his house. These photos were taken at Childwall Five Ways, a short distance from his house.
