* Black Sabbath played their final concert over the weekend. The Louisville Leopard Percussionists will open our day…

Ozzy met the band later. That video is also worth a watch.

I love many heavy metal bands, but Black Sabbath remains my favorite because Black Sabbath swings.

Any thoughts on the recent Emerson College poll about the 2028 race?

Strong recommendation to watch the 2nd video where Ozzy interacts with the kids.

It was bittersweet seeing the Ozzman perform from a chair, appearing somewhat desperate to stand up and rile up the crowd. Still, a great send off to the greatest of all time in metal/rock genre.

Is it just me or does Illinois.gov seem slower and clunkier than usual in the last week or so?

I tried to do some research over the weekend and was dismayed to find that the new (and definitely not improved) ilga.gov seems to be live. Everything about it just seems to be a barrier to accessing information.
