Do people not realize that:
-All three SeaWorld facilities are AZA accredited institutions (meaning the highest captive animal care standards like...almost anywhere)
-Both shows and breeding programs surrounding Orcas have ceased since like 2016
Olympic skiers are like “I have 2% body fat. I train 23 hours a day. I have had 87 surgeries” and Olympic snowboarders are like “I have smoked this many drugs today” and they hold up their hand which is in a mitten.
Origins of La Grange,
“La Grange,” is a little ditty about a “shack outside La Grange.” Mostly known as the Chicken Ranch, it was a Texas brothel open from 1905 to 1973. A simple farmhouse with no signs advertising its purpose, the Chicken Ranch ran with the knowledge, if not the blessing, of local politicians and law enforcement.
Many people in Texas knew about it, but when the song was released it drew so much attention to the illegal activities going on there that they had to cease operations. In a 1985 interview with Spin magazine, ZZ Top bass player Dusty Hill explained: "Did you ever see the movie, The Best Little Whorehouse in Texas? That's what it's about. I went there when I was 13.
The music is based on a John Lee Hooker song called "Boogie Chillen." Hooker died in 2001 at age 83.
Billy Gibbons explained how he got his guitar sound on this track in a 1995 interview with Guitar World. Said Gibbons:
"That is straight guitar into amp, a 1955 Strat with a stop-tailpiece through a 1969 Marshall Super Lead 100. That fuzz sound in the lead and in the front and back end of the composition is just pure tube distortion. Pickup-setting differentials account for the different tones. The opening part was played on what we used to call 'the mystery setting' in the dark days before the existence of the five-way toggle switch, when finding that perfect 'tweener required dedication."

Tyler Childers covering Time by Pink Floyd. One of my favorite songs covered by one of my favorite artists. I was at this show. One of the best nights of my life.
@Royalwhale@DudespostingWs There is an extremely long answer to this, but generally speaking you look for areas that would’ve been suitable for native encampments (close to running water, out of the floodplain, good vantage point, etc) . If they lived there, you’ll start finding evidence once you dig.
Somebody needs to tell the “act” that has let out (the cover) of James town ferry 6 times he should just work on letting out quality original music
