@HootenWilson @pepperdine I read Great Expectations and The Old Man and the Sea (among others) in 9th grade.

@megbasham Have you seen the President’s Twitter feed today?

[Bob Seawright @RPSeawright]

@realmattcarr The issue is more complex than the article allows. For example, houses today are 30% larger than 1971 (new construction 75% larger), making the cost difference misleading unless the size difference is factored in.

[Bob Seawright @RPSeawright]

@realmattcarr I understand. But, even so, the idea that my working class family in 1971 lived *anything* like a family making $450k/yr today is beyond absurd. Totally crazy-town.

[Bob Seawright @RPSeawright]

@realmattcarr The "study" (if it exists) claims that a 1971 minimum wage job ($3328/yr) was equivalent to $100k today. In 1971, I was in high school. My dad was a school custodian, my mom a a bank teller. Together, they made about $15k/yr. Was that equivalent to $450k/yr today. Absolutely not.

The Kinks.

[🎸 @luiscalleo]

Everybody talks about The Beatles and The Stones.

Which British band from the '60s deserves a lot more love?

[Bob Seawright @RPSeawright]

Kenny Aronoff. Buddy Rich. Russ Kunkel. Steve Gadd. Don Henley.

[Jimusic @JVMonte2]

Who is the best drummer you’ve ever seen live?

[Bob Seawright @RPSeawright]

@MichelleDLesley It's a serious question (not a "gotcha").

[Bob Seawright @RPSeawright]

@MichelleDLesley No problem.

Your linked post argues that your blog is fine because it is for women; men are eavesdropping. But the article I asked about is obviously for a mixed audience. You even state that you hope it will "help a pastor" or "a church." Why is that instruction of men okay?

[Bob Seawright @RPSeawright]

@RockNRoLL_85 Nopity, nope, nope, nope.

[Bob Seawright @RPSeawright]

@DougTenNapel DOGE failed due to poor planning, sloppy execution, and non-existent follow through. And the Trump family has made far more off the presidency than the Biden family could have imagined.

@mattmillsap Three more.

5. Why is your doctrine of sin so weak (some might say effeminate)?
6. Why do you reject the BF&M?
7. Why should you suffer no consequences for rejecting the BF&M?

[Bob Seawright @RPSeawright]

@MichelleDLesley You aren't being tedious, you simply jumped to criticize my answer without understanding your own question.

Had you merely asked if I was a Christian, I would have answered that I am and have been for 65 years. I try (imperfectly) to be faithful and Bible-believing.

[Bob Seawright @RPSeawright]

@MichelleDLesley I try to be.

Due to unforeseen circumstances, we have postponed our LeBron James introductory press conference indefinitely

The greatest live album of all time is ________?

Of course this is a matter of opinion.

@tomowenmorgan My much better half has a one-year rule. If we haven't used it in a year, it goes.
