Re: F1 TV - A surprising value in streaming

Ford is jumping back into the game in a way next year too. They'll be power unit focused out of the UK. A long international history there.

Cadillac? Better not come with the velour...

Re: Strictly Jazz - Suggestions and a discussion about the music.

NEA Jazz Master Jack DeJohnette has packed up his drum kit and left the stage. He died of congestive heart failure at the age of 83 on October 26, 2025. One of the all-time great jazz drummers, he played with Miles Davis (B*tches Brew era), John Coltrane, Charles Lloyd, Sonny Rollins, Pat Metheny, Herbie Hancock, John Scofield, Ron Carter, Bill Evans, Keith Jarrett, Bill Frisell, and many others, and led his own bands. He had a long association with ECM Records, started his own label, and won two Grammy awards. He was also an accomplished pianist.

I had the pleasure of seeing DeJohnette in concert with Keith Jarrett and Gary Peacock in Atlanta (twice) and at the New Orleans Jazz and Heritage Festival with Ravi Coltrane and Matthew Garrison, the sons of two of his old bandmates, John Coltrane and Jimmy Garrison. (DeJohnette was Matthew Garrison's godfather.)

F1 TV - A surprising value in streaming

I watched the new(ish) F1 movie w/ Brad Pitt on 4k with my daughter in our HT a couple weeks ago. I had absolutely no idea where it would lead, but she is now a huge F1 fan - in just a couple weeks, she knows all the drivers, is learning a lot of the tech, and is even learning the history. Unbelievable. Her newfound interest has pulled me back in to the sport too (I haven’t followed seriously for several years).

So last weekend, we went to watch the Austin GP…. Well, turns out that is a bit harder than I thought. We have no cable of satellite service - we just stream with Prime and HBO (we don’t watch a lot of TV, mostly movies and music). Needless to say, we missed last weeks race, but I prepared for this weekend ahead of time by doing some research. I found the F1 channel, and I honestly thought it would be crazy expensive - after all, most things associated with F1 are not cheap. Sure enough, I pull it up on the Roku, and I see that it’s $28.99 a month. Bummer. But then I notice - it’s actually $28.99 for an ENTIRE YEAR. Wow! So today we watched qualifying, and tomorrow the race. What a value, in a world where these streaming service fees seem to be out of control.

Re: Post a picture.....any picture...part deux...

First flown in 1947, the B-45 has the distinction of being the first operational jet bomber to enter service with the United States Air Force, as well as being the first multi-engine jet bomber in the world to be refueled in midair. The Tornado saw action during the Korean War, performing conventional bombing and aerial reconnaissance missions.

(Don't remember seeing a picture of this plane)
