The Crown

By pwsadmin / September 27, 2022 / Comments Off

I began watching a “New to me” Series on Netflix called “The Crown.”Many of you probably already watch it. I’m on Season 1, Episode 10, and am really enjoying it. It makes sense that I would like it, though. It takes place in the 1950s and has “flashbacks” to even earlier years. I love the…

I got woken by Jazz Music at 3 am this morning. I have my Alexa set to play Jazz when it alerts me to wake up. And it does wake me up fast. Like most Jazz, it’s always a song that starts with the Horn Section playing. ♪Waaaaah- Waaaaah-Weeeee-Weeeee♪—I hope you could hear that in…
