Dr. Z, when it comes to the negative press pieces about us, I always recall history, and of the negativity some people and companies received at the hands of popular writers. To wit...
"Not even their mothers would claim that they sing well."
William F. Buckley on The Beatles in 1963
"The Beatles’ vocal quality can be described as hoarsely incoherent, with the minimal enunciation necessary to communicate the schematic texts."
That liberal rag, The NY Times, Feb., 1964
"Their lyrics (punctuated by nutty shouts of “yeah, yeah, yeah”) are a catastrophe, a preposterous farrago of Valentine-card romantic sentiments…. " NEWSWEEK on The Beatles
You can't stand in an elevator since the 70's without hearing the Boston Pops playing one of their songs now. Soon, that will be us. You won't be able to stand in an elevator without hearing something like this... "Well, I did the only thing I could do. I administered Lironlimab to the patient, and she's now fully recovered from TNBC", or, "Hey, remember that Covid thing?"
AF will be flushed-down history's toilet, and I'll be on my bass boat, having convinced my wife to finally wear that bikini, (sans top), drinking iced tea (I'm recovering) and looking forward to the annual get-together of folks on this board where the biggest argument is whether to meet in Vail or Tahiti... again.
The bottom line is the science, and every time I read something negative about LL or CYDY, I try to find what I missed. I haven't missed anything. My small retirement accumulation is still here, and the feeling in my bones says it's starting to happen now.
Soooo... if you're invited on my Bass Boat, don't fret. I'll still have plenty of good hooch. And really expensive iced tea.
