My little app, possibly fun for music buffs who use Apple Music: (best to click this link on an iPhone, where it can run) : https://apps.apple.com/us/app/whatsplaying/id6448736200
WhatImHearing.html

A better app - kind of like Shazam meets wikipedia, but also does wikipedia for Apple Music item currently playing. A big improvement on the earlier one.
$0.99 , cheap ! 😀

October 15 https://www.msn.com/en-us/news/other/why-a-woman-was-beaten-at-trump-s-youngstown-rally-and-the-unanswered-epstein-question-behind-it-all/ar-AA2eeJCY
https://www.foxnews.com/politics/protester-punched-face-trump-supporter-mocked-president-ohio-rally-gotta-go-diet Trying to find out what really happened - it seems that MSN and Fox agree, which seems like good confirmation. This woman is a hero! (The Fox article refers to her mostly as "the heckler", obscuring the fact that she is a woman, when describing how a Trump supporter punched a woman in the face.) Thanks to Elizabeth Croydon for posting about this, which prompted me to try and verify it.
I think this is a legit source for a legit video of the incident: https://ovp.tmz.com/video/1a/o/2026/10/13/1a8434816b9b43beb05e6468066ef9e4.mp4 I've "liberated" it and saved it here: punched.mp4

BeatlesCartoonTomorrowNeverKnows.mp4
I vaguely remember watching Beatles cartoons in Boston; not sure about it. So that would have been before this aired, which was I guess in 1967, according to https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Beatles_(TV_series)
Sort of a funny little film; 60's American TV tries to do something with Tomorrow Never Knows....pretty confused about different cultures, etc., but I think sort of good-hearted.
