Mercedes Sosa "Razón de Vivir"

Arctic Monkeys "Do I Wanna Know?"

Daft Punk "Instant Crush"

Teleman "Düsseldorf"

Sting "The Hounds of Winter"

I sang this song in public, this evening. So fun! (And Not in my natural range, I don't think?)
[This song meant ever-so-much to me in early 1998. And again in late 2003-early 2004.]

The Whitest Boy Alive "1517"

Hey, you, we just got started
You can't end this now
Hey, you, we just got started
You can't end this now
You've paid your dues, you're free
Of what are you afraid?
You've paid your dues, you're free
Of what are you afraid?

Taking on responsibility
Knowing it will weigh you down
Freedom is a possibility
Only if you're able to say no

People in Northern Europe
Since medieval times
We find it hard to deal with
When our dreams come true
As if happiness exists
In the world at a fixed amount
And if you feel up
Somebody somewhere else feels down

Taking on responsibility
Knowing it will weigh you down
Freedom is a possibility
Only if you're able to say no

Taking on responsibility
Knowing it will weigh you down
Freedom is a possibility
Only if you're able to say no

Atherton police officers (as reported in this article on the department) routinely respond to “resident concerns” that would be a low priority in many other departments. Among the incidents reported in 2010 and 2011:

• Police assisted a man who got trapped on a balcony when the door closed behind him.
• A resident hired a locksmith who hadn’t returned with the key.
• A person sitting in a vehicle outside a residence was waiting for a friend who lives there.
• A man was reported to be sitting down and talking to himself. Police made contact and confirmed he was using a cellphone.
• A large statue was stolen.
• A resident worried that a noisy hawk in a tree was in distress. When authorities arrived, the hawk was quiet and enjoying dinner.
• Four or five juveniles were reported to be running around at Selby Lane School and involved in “horseplay” on a summer afternoon.
• A resident asked for help finding a lost cat.
• A woman whose finger got stuck in a drain was reported to be conscious and breathing.
• A pedestrian was reported after midnight wearing black pants and a white dress shirt.

• A resident called police to report that someone had tipped over his recycling containers.
• A man was reported to be lying on the ground, possibly writing.
• A person reported a man tried to hide his face, then turned and walked away.
• Police responding to reports of a suspicious person hollering “ho-ho-ho” on Christmas Eve encountered a man in a Santa costume who makes a habit of going up and down the street greeting his neighbors every year.

• A person seen walking at midday for two days in a row was contacted and determined to be using lunch breaks to get some exercise.
• Fruit has been disappearing from a tree.
• Loud birds were reported. Police responded and settled the situation.
