Because of work and home projects…I’m going to take a short break and close the joint down. I’ll be back on November 17th. Last year I took a month and it was too long all at once and I took a couple of weeks this past April.
Thank you all for reading and commenting because that is the reason I still do this…the interaction. Along with the projects, this will give me a few days to recharge the batteries.
I didn’t think I’d see this band on any modern chart in my lifetime.

I did the same thing recently with no end date posted ‘coz I didn’t know. I came back two months later. I post less frequently just because – at least for me – less is more.
Recently I’ve been posting way more than usual…I will around a holiday but I went stupid. I agree with you though. Less is more really in a lot of ways. I try to keep mine short every day but thats not been the case recently.
Do what you have to do Max! See you back soon enough. Take care my friend.
Thank you Randy!
Hasta luego. Enjoy the break.
Thank you!
Enjoy the break Max. I reckon it’s a most necessary thing when blogging. I need to take a break myself but am desperate to get to the 3000th story and finish altogether – that will be around Feb 20 2024.
You are on your way to 10,000 Bruce…you won’t be able to resist the limelight…
I intend to “try” to do other things!
Enjoy your break. 🙂
Thank you!
You’re welcome. 🙂
The Now and Then song is starting to grow on me, as when I first heard it, I was not impressed at all.
I like the fullness of it and the sound. It sounds different than other things on the charts right now. The more I heard it the more I liked it…thats the same reaction I had to most songs…like Start Me Up by the Stones…it took me a few listens and now I think it’s the perfect closing song.
I no longer commit to posting a certain amount … just as and when I can find any time. But with no pressure. It really is a nice feeling to realise you don’t HAVE to post every day.
Enjoy your break – catch you when you’re good and ready. 🙂
I once had a streak of over 1000 days going on of never missing…then I suddenly realized like you. Oh…I can take breaks every now and then…so I plan these every few months…I imagine in 4-5 months I’ll take another one.
Enjoy your break and getting more things done. I look forward to seeing what you might have up your sleeve for your return!
I’m looking forward to it Dave! I’ll be talking to you.
Enjoy your recharge 💯!
Thank you! You also have a good couple of weeks!
Thanks!
Leave it to the Beatles to find a Beatles way to say it currently and as definitively as ever: “You’re with us as much as we’re with you. Always.” Enjoy your break, Max.
Thank you! It’s really cool seeing The Beatles in action. They were just introduced to yet another generation. I wasn’t in the first…I was in the second…
godspeed
Lord above! He’s only going for 11 days 🙂
What I want to know is who the heck is Jung Kook!? See you on the flipside, homie!

Happy break, Max. And “see” you when I get back from my own temporary hiatus!
