Today's song: I Guess the Lord Must Be in New York City.
People keep saying the Spurs are the future of the NBA, but they didn't earn that this year. More probably it's the Knicks that are the future. The Knicks will keep growing. The Knicks beat the Spurs in the last two games by playing rope-a-dope, probably not intentionally, but it worked anyway. The Spurs, and Wemby especially, were completely zonked by the fourth quarter. The Knicks had a bench this year that let the starters get plenty of rest. The Spurs lost game four because they didn't have the good sense to rest Wemby while they were up by 20+ points. Anyway, the Knicks have a formula. Pick players with heart potential and talent, treat them like a team, keep trying out new ideas, approaches. It works. Won NY the championship this year. As anticipated I have no idea what to make of the Knicks as winner. I'll have to learn too. ;-)
One thing I want to know -- where do I tune in to get the most of Clyde talking about this series.
And thanks to the Knicks for being such a great team. Never ever in a million years did I imagine saying that.

It's an intriguing idea. ChatGPT review, after a short discussion between us. Both JY and ChatGPT use the term "open web" which to me has become a red flag. The web is open. No need to say it twice. There's no such thing as a web element that's not open. It's like saying wet water.

Nusrat’s first Western album is an ideal representation of the sacred and secular art of qawwali singing.
