Passed away peacefully at 87. A TRUE groundbreaker, and much of what he did we now take for granted. A 24 hour news channel did not exist before CNN. Ted Turner founded CNN, TBS, TNT, TCM (Turner Classic Movies). He was also a renowned philanthropist and environmentalist. He once gave One $Billion to The United Nations Fund, a philanthropic branch of the UN. He was once the largest landowner in America and did much to bring back the Bison species in Montana which was moving towards extinction. RIP Mr. Turner, a great man.........

Just turn on CNN today, like me you'll learn much more than I ever knew.

Nobody played harder....

"Give Me Some Loving" The Jammys 2004 Steve Winwood w Dickey Betts / Warren Haynes

PorkchopBob — Tue, 05 May 2026 15:18:14 +0000

I remember catching this on TV randomly when it aired and was very surprised to see Warren Haynes and Dickey Betts on the same stage in 2004. I could only find a few random clips from other acts, but I believe this is the all-star jam that closed the show. Derek was there too, but it makes me wonder if the last time Warren and Dickey shared a stage was on a Spencer Davis Group song, which happens to be who wrote the first song on the first Allman Bros album. Anyone aware of them crossing paths again?

What Cannabis Rescheduling Actually Means For You

"On April 22, 2026, that direction produced its first concrete result: Acting Attorney General Todd Blanche issued a final order placing certain categories of cannabis into Schedule III. But this isn't a blanket reclassification. The order covers FDA-approved cannabis products and state-licensed medical cannabis only; recreational cannabis remains in Schedule I, along with bulk and anything outside the licensed medical lane.

For broader rescheduling, the traditional regulatory process is still in motion: the DEA will hold a new administrative hearing beginning June 29, 2026. Until then, the industry operates in a split reality, where dispensaries holding both medical and adult-use licenses are sitting in a complicated middle ground."

David Allen Coe RIP

Saw on the news last night David Allen Coe passed away at age 86.

David grew up in reform school, spent five years in prison for burglary, was a member of the Outlaws motorcycle gang and released a couple of X-rated racist albums Coe later came to regret.

He hired Warren Haynes out of Ashville, NC to play lead and slide in his band and it was Warren's first band to be known beyond regional recognition.

Warren eventually left and recently answered that is was too weird as the reason he left and began living in Nashville trying his hand at session work both as a guitarist and vocalist.

Coe's favorite guitar player was Duane.

I'm not that into David Allen Coe since I found one of his racist albums on YouTube.
