FMJRA 2.0: Thy Eternal Summer Shall Not Fade

At this time last week, I was in the Las Vegas VA hospital with IV drips of Rocephin and Vancomycin going into my veins in a successful effort to exterminate the vile bacteria that were trying to kill me. I’m home now, feeling better, and have another four days of Levaquin ahead of me until I’m 100% again.
Turning to the subject of baseball, the Senators had a largely successful fortnight, taking series from the Twins and Cardinals before sweeping the Tribe at home in RFK; unfortunately, Friday night we went to Oakland to face the A’s and got stomped, losing all three games. So now we’re five games behind them in the AL West. Could be worse.
Shortly before the long weekend at the VA, I received Volume 11 of Klaus Schulze’s La Vie Electronique. I finally got around to ripping and listening to it this week, and it’s okay. The first disc has some operatic tracks on it that I don’t much care for, but the other two discs are more of the same electronic classical music I have come to love. I will note that the cover art for this volume reminds me of Klaus’ appearance in SAVAGE HENRY #27, a Matt Howarth comic book in which Henry and Klaus are hijacked into a pocket dimension by a spoiled rich kid who also forces Klaus (much to his displeasure) to appear in his long-haired hippie “space rock” getup from Trancefer. Spoiled rich kid hasn’t reckoned with Henry’s dimension-traveling skills or the power of music, though…
