So it was #RecordStoreDay yesterday? I've been going through my 45RPMs, which I don't play any more because they're in such bad shape, and filling some playlists on YouTube. Artists that I'm finding I can't get enough of: Bob Seger, Genesis, Foreigner, Kenny Loggins. #oldster

Who's Fallen for a Text, Email, or Phone Scam? I mean, who hasn't? Elders are particularly vulnerable. But apparently so are Gen Xers and others in middle age—like me. How about you? Ever fallen for a scam? A Friday Open Thread...
