B. B. King, the thrill is gone, but the music lives on


I have been a fan of B. B. King from the time I was old enough to operate a radio, record player or cassette deck.  B.B. King outlived some of the technology that made his music available to me.  now that he has passed on I am listening to his music using technology that will keep his legacy of work around for future generations.


I did not think it was possible for me to listen to the whole catalogue of B. B. king's music via Spotify.  I started listening to this massive playlist yesterday at work.  I continued the list today while working on the front bathroom in my house.  B. b. King is one of the few musical artists that I can just listen to all of his songs and like them all.  B. b. king has also played with a lot of other musicians that are my favorites.

i am sad that he has passed on, but I am glad that he took the time to play his guitar.

Looking for a compact digital camera. This is the spot for taking notes. I want a small camera with a decent lens that takes raw images. It must also have manual F-stop and aperture settings.  I take a lot of pictures from my bike like this one .  My Samsung Galaxy Note 3 takes good images, but I want better. I have an ancient Canon EOS 10D with a Cannon EF 20mm 1:28 lens.  I love taking still life and landscape photos with this camera and super sharp lens.  The dang thing is so heavy that I do not want to ride with it unless I am really on a camera taking picture ride. The The Fujifilm FinePix F900EXR This is another possibility. Generally I have always purchased Canon cameras, but I may have to change.
