@Wangersky @cybergibbons You are sounding like a bona fide oldster (which I guess you are).

@cybergibbons Bulletin Kill has been around since I was a news pup. It means, “do not use under any circumstance.” Dates back to teletype. It would be the all-caps top kick to get yr attention.

I really want to understand the process that is called a "KILL NOTIFICATION" and "MANDATORY KILL". It's a photo not a fucking target.
Where has this weird military language come from? Where has it been used before?
Why didn't the APs own site know about it?

No comment from Kensington Palace tonight after at least 3 international pictures agencies refuse to distribute this morning’s photo of Kate and her children. Some of them (@AP ) have claimed “the source [the palace] has manipulated the image”.

@UnrealBluegrass @mollytuttle Man, can Molly play the guitar. Listen to her live version of Olympia.

Molly Tuttle on the sound system of a regular Sunday lunch restaurant.

Impressive.

@UnrealBluegrass And the flutes, don't forget the flutes. No oboe though.

Been listening to the live collection "Bob Dylan at Budokan".
A 1978 recording. Two nights,four CDs.
Wildly different arrangements but that is another aspect of what I consider his genius.
Horns. Different vocals. Different everything.
All of the music works the way he wants it to.
Dylan does Dylan better than anyone does themselves.

Bottom line after two lengthy online chats with two different @Rogers reps? If I want to switch to Bell, hey, go ahead. knock yourself out.

His memoir Trauma Farm is a must read! Beautiful obit for the maverick poet, writer and activist Brian Brett, known for signature humour and ruminations on nature, dead at 73 @cbcbooks @HalWake @bradcran cbc.ca/books/poet-and…
