The Euston Tap: Dedicated cider bar with cask ales and draught beers, in a Victorian gatehouse with beer garden. More of a beer bar than pub..but a cool, unique place to have a beer.

Lunatic Soul: The World Under Unsun
re: 18 year old girl found dead wrapped in blankets under a bed on Carnival cruise ship

A 16-year-old has been indicted by a grand jury on murder and aggravated sexual abuse charges for allegedly killing his stepsister on a cruise ship last year.
The suspect, who is only identified by the initials T.H. because of his age, was indicted by a federal grand jury, according to the U.S. Department of Justice. The teenager was originally charged as a minor in February with the case under seal, but is now being prosecuted as an adult after a federal judge's ruling.
T.H. was aboard the Carnival Cruise Line's Horizon ship with his stepsister Anna Kepner in November 2025. While aboard the ship, prosecutors allege he sexually assaulted and intentionally killed Kepner.
The 18-year-old high school cheerleader from Titusville, Florida, was found dead while aboard the Carnival Horizon cruise ship. Law enforcement sources told multiple media outlets that Kepner's body was found by a housekeeper under the bed in her stateroom on the ship, which returned to Port Miami on Saturday, Nov. 8.
ABC News reported that Kepner died by asphyxiation resulting from a bar hold, a term for holding an arm across the neck. The media outlet also reported investigators found two bruises on the side of her neck.
“In his own words, he says he does not remember what happened,” Barbara told ABC News. “I believe, to him, that is his truth. He was an emotional mess. He couldn't even speak. He couldn't believe what had happened.”
Following Anna's death, the stepbrother was hospitalized for psychiatric observation after returning to Miami, before being released to stay with a family member, Barbara told ABC News.

Druid Focker. The YouTube videos were legit insane.
We went to the game. It was a thorough beatdown. I told my friend from Arizona that they should never have hired sweater vest Mackovic after he had imploded at Texas.
Christopher Reed North (January 26, 1951 - March 30, 2026) was an American musician. He was the founding keyboardist of the American progressive rock band Ambrosia. 1970 he formed the progressive rock band Ambrosia with David Pack, Joe Puerta and Burleigh Drummond. North was hired by Puerta after seeing him perform in a "dimly lit room" one night: "There was a coffin with speakers in it. And at the end of the room, Chris was there, playing the organ with a bottle of wine on the top, smoking a cigarette, and there was a girl massaging his shoulders as he played, so I go, 'We gotta get this guy in the band'". Fans of Ambrosia, we honor the legendary life and career of our dearest family member Christopher North, the "Hammond B3 King" whose sonic architecture defined a generation of progressive and soft rock. A founding member since 1970, he was a keyboard wizard who brought an unmatched intensity and emotional depth to every performance.
We will always remember "Northwind" for his fiery, "intense" stage presence—a legacy that began when he was first discovered playing in a dimly lit room, his organ topped with a bottle of wine. Even as he faced health challenges in recent years, including a brave and successful battle with throat cancer, his spirit remained tied to the music and the fans he loved.
Christopher North’s work did more than just fill airwaves; it created "aural landscapes" that balanced virtuosity with soulful, radio-friendly hooks. We celebrate a true craftsman of the classic rock era whose lush piano lines and soaring organ swells will remain timeless.
He was truly one of a kind, and loved dearly by his fans and bandmates.
RIP, Brother Chris, forever and ever in our hearts...

Darrell George "Dash" Crofts (August 14, 1940 – March 25, 2026) was an American musician. He was best known as one half of the soft rock duo Seals and Crofts with Jim Seals.
Crofts was originally a drummer in his early career, when he met Jim Seals, then a saxophonist. The two would go on to play in The Champs, eventually creating the duo Seals and Crofts, in which both members sang and played the guitar and mandolin among other instruments; they would go on to record hits such as "Summer Breeze" and "Diamond Girl.
Born in Cisco, Texas, Crofts began his musical career as a pianist and drummer, eventually meeting Jim Seals in his youth. The two would go on to form a lasting partnership, first performing together in early groups before establishing themselves as Seals and Crofts. After relocating to California and briefly stepping away due to military service, the duo regrouped in the late 1960s and began developing the distinctive sound that would define their career.
Working with Shelton, Seals and Crofts achieved widespread success throughout the 1970s. Albums such as Year of Sunday (1971), Summer Breeze (1972), Diamond Girl (1973), and Get Closer (1976) produced a string of hit songs, including the title tracks of several of those releases, many of which reached the Top 10. Their music helped shape the soft rock genre, blending melodic instrumentation with reflective songwriting.
Crofts contributed as a vocalist and multi-instrumentalist, performing on guitar and mandolin and sharing songwriting duties with Seals. Among their other notable songs were “Hummingbird,” “I’ll Play for You,” and “We May Never Pass This Way (Again).” The duo also achieved strong album sales, including multiple gold and platinum certifications.
Their music often reflected personal beliefs, including themes influenced by the Baha’i Faith, which emphasized unity and shared humanity. While generally well received, some of their work also drew attention for its social commentary, including the 1974 song “Unborn Child.”
Seals and Crofts parted ways in the early 1980s as musical trends shifted, though they reunited periodically in later decades. Crofts eventually returned to Texas, where he spent his later years raising horses. He also released a solo album, Today, in 1998.

As of 5:30 am wait times at both Terminal A and E are 240 minutes. 4 hours. That makes it impossible to catch an early morning flight. Plan accordingly. LINK

This is the sriracha that is being produced by Underwood now. I find it has more of a kick than the original Huy Fong brand.
I also like this one by Kikkoman-it has the most heat of any sriracha I have ever had.
Just hit 39 last week with my visit to Gateway Arch in St. Louis.
About 12 National Monuments/forests/rivers that i can remember. I sure there are more.
Hard to pick one favorite but Glacier, Mt. Rainier, Grand Canyon and Death Valley are among the top. I need to explore Yellowstone and Olympic more even though I've been to both twice.
On the agenda for May is Joshua Tree, Yosemite, Kings Canyon, Pinnacles, and Sequoia NP's.
Least favorites-Congaree (it's a swamp), Hot Springs.
Any and all are better than sitting at home on your rump....

re: Harris County Judge Lina Hidalgo alleges being shoved by Rodeo security over seat dispute

On top of everything, the Houston Livestock Show and Rodeo board voted to revoke Judge Lina Hidalgo's ex officio title amid an ongoing feud.
EVERYONE is sick of her shite..
On Wednesday, Hidalgo told ABC13 that she had been "manhandled" by staff at the rodeo while trying to access the dirt floor to the sold-out Megan Moroney concert on Tuesday night. Rodeo officials told Eyewitness News they have no knowledge of any physical altercation but confirm that Hidalgo

I never understood how she won in the first place.
She won in 2018 in a straight ticket vote when Beto was running against Ted Cruz.
At the top of the ticket, U.S. Sen. Ted Cruz lost Harris county by more than 200,000 votes; Former Judge Ed Emmett’s (R) race — midway down the longest ballot in the country — was decided by a margin of about 19,000 votes. That is how Dora the Explorer ended up in office.
Straight ticket voting ended in 2020 in Texas.
