I did a good thing today, explained how to figure the sum of internal angles of polygons by writing it out, then filling in the blanks with numbers and such. Everyone learns differently. I have to draw diagrams, I'm often a visual learner. With math. I was color coding alternate interior angles with parallel lines too. So few math teachers think of color coding when it comes to geometry. Or all sciences. I color code a LOT when I'm having trouble organizing.
I'm kinda a compulsive reader. I don't read linear, I read circular. That is I read-skim first, then loop back sometimes and read it again a few times. Hard to explain, but it depends on the material.
Writing out the Arlo Guthrie review, I had a lot of those songs on my internal jukebox today.
This one was anomalously in the Moodies' bumper music. I had never heard it before, but it's powerful and makes me cry. I'm in a crying mood, in case you didn't notice.

There was another addition I liked. I heard it while using an IHOP as my office away from office, writing articles when Justin's Oklahoma shows were canceled. But I can't recall anything about it except it sounded like Steve Winwood singing and also was spine-tingling.
Outstanding voices, but too much disco.
I'm really tired tonight, a full battery of supplements and some home made. chicken soup. Rain falling in buckets. We have reports of a cougar in the area, so no walks by night for me.
Still haven't come back into focus after the cruise. There's a twitter on the loose an Uber driver claims he took the Moody Blues to the acupuncturist. I find that comforting somehow.
That was cute. The green hills in my mind are more compelling. I've lost my way, and I'm trying to find my way back, but if I trust my feelings, it will be easy now.
They played this song this morning for our announcements (kids did it all!!!) and it got stuck in the brain of one of my hooligans (he kept humming it) ... so I put it on for the kids. BTW I'm glad you liked "The Green Hills of Earth" Robert Heinlein wrote the poem, I have no idea who did the composition, but it was a marvelous job... my Heinlein group has been talking about it.
The song is technically interesting, but I'll take the actor over the entertainer for 500, Alex:
I went past the place where I first heard "Say It with Love." WSKY, one of the last remaining real radio stations where an un-prerecorded person actually pulled vinyl and CD's, and one of my motivations for moving here, played it. I was driving home and pulled off on a broad shoulder to listen to the rest of it. I think 'Keys of the Kingdom' and 'The Present' are both underrated.
That selection posted was sort of the sequel to this one, which I also love very much:
