I agree. He's referring to gentlemanly restraint due to respect of the office, even when describing a train wreck such as Biden.

I just checked the pitches. The music started out in G-sharp, but from the start, she heard it the way she rehearsed it, in F natural.

Those two keys are a minor third apart, and in entirely different families. They clash horribly together! But she's a solid singer and stayed within F natural, which would make the highest notes much easier to reach.

She may have had a recording of it performed in F natural, and practice to that a thousand times. Once you've done that, your vocal chords just know how tight to be.

The music was fine, and she was fine, they were just in entirely different keys. That's the fault of whoever coordinated this performance. Which key will we be in, said no one?

Any other musicians in the house? If you don't play music, you might not realize that any song can be played in any of 12 different keys. If I was the sound man here, I would have done the same thing and just shut off the music and let her sing in the key she learned to sing it in.

Listening to this for the first time, I could tell that she was in a key quite a distance away from the key on the soundtrack. The mistake made was in providing a standard recording of the national anthem, without asking, "Oh, and what key will you be performing this in?"

The Star-Spangled Banner can be challenging for most singers because of the range required for the low notes and the high notes. For this reason, the song is usually tailored to the range of the singer by choosing a suitable key to perform it in. They failed on that step.

Today I heard for the first time a description of an alien craft that looked like a 10 foot wide cube, colored gray or black, inside of a transparent spherical bubble. They mentioned it was sitting stationary in airspace with heavy air traffic and a couple of planes missed it by just 50ft. It was kind a being in the way.

First the tic tac design and now this. With the accelerating speed of technological development, they probably have a new design for space travel every 5 minutes or so.

This was exactly like Janet Yellon a while back. Lights out for about a minute.

The Bible says the Jews are God's chosen people.

Only the Jews, and not anyone else.

You and I are like cattle to them.

We are nothing, and the Jews shall own the world.

We know this because of the book they wrote.

Get ready to exhale your exhortations and exclamations!

How do they keep the targets from showing up at the same time?

"Hey, can you come over at exactly 3:47? It's important that you'll not be one minute early or late. Can you do that?"

That's interesting. No, it only appears in GAW. All the titles have a weird glow around them that just doesn't look right in dark mode. It's especially bad for the orange colored stickied titles because the orange blends in with the grey glow, and it's just a mess.

I wonder if anyone is going to address the horrible glow that was added to the title texts. When viewed in dark mode it makes it very hard to read. IMO major changes to this site's CSS should be viewed under dark mode before making them permanent.

The new CSS doesn't look so great in dark mode.

We all appreciate innovation, but the weird shadowing in title text is much less legible and pleasing to the eye when viewed in dark mode. It was much better before with crisp letters and no mud around them.

If you must have it, perhaps try using half as much?

I like dark mode best, but now it's much harder to read! That's innovation in the wrong direction.

This song brings images to mind of 20 good old boys with their favorite hand held toys, standing off against a small army of drag queens and joggers twerking their way up Main Street. How do you think that will turn out?

Extra dose of weirdness creeping in. It looks to me like he's getting his tongue involved, licking the jacket and then blowing on the spot where he licked. What in his twisted mind does he think he is doing?

Let me get this straight. So cluster bombs are banned, and the US already has a large stock pile, ready to go, paid for by the American taxpayer.
