I saw Disturbed at OzzFest 2000 in St. Louis back when they still wheeled Draiman out on on a shipping dolly in a straight jacket. I'm not the biggest metal fan, but I liked Disturbed and Incubus and have a truckload of respect for Ozzy surviving, being Ozzy; even if he was really difficult to watch as early as 2000.

My mom asked me about the concert when my best friend and I got back and said she wanted to hear the bands I liked. So I played some of Down with the Sickness and she hated it. Told me she wasn't in the mood for so much darkness.

So fast forward 24 is years, my precious little ball of chaos has entered teenage years and introduces grand-mommy to 'her' music :), after a litany of Swift, Broadway show-tunes, some indy girl-pop, then she drops Disturbed's cover of Sound of Silence. Which my mom said, "Is really really good but too dark." To which my kid replied, "Have you met your son?"

So my mom tells her the story of teaching Simon and Garfunkel in junior high literature class in 1968 and getting angry calls from parents about teaching evil hippy music in class. Then she listens to more Disturbed with my kid and calls me the next day to tell me that after 24 years she's changed her mind about Disturbed, old and new its "pretty darn good."

So yeah, that's my favorite version of Sound of Silence, one of the few where I'll say the cover is better than the original, see also Cash: Hurt even Reznor said it wasn't his song anymore.

Garden Wednesday and all is well. Just frosting up (this is the Bubblegum Sherb & Apple Fritter).

Once a year we take staff to the CNE and have lunch, some do rides etc. it’s become tradition. My 8 year old has his cast off and no camp this week, so he’s coming with Dad. This likely works out in his favour as Dax is the foodie. Open to your recommendations for this years gross foods @Laughing Grass

I’ll throw a few pics of the girls up being Garden Wednesday. Here’s the golden tiger at 4.5 weeks in flower, she won’t even slow down stretching. I knew it would happen but somehow hoped it would slow about now, I have another foot or so before it becomes a pain.

This is the Malawi, somehow she’s not as stretchy as the GT, but still going strong so who knows.

And here’s Puck, dense as can be even though I’ve thinned her out multiple times. She’s starting to stack up nicely.

It’s easy to see why the sativas take longer to fully mature. Here’s a close up of Puck with well formed buds getting denser by the day.

And the GT, who is ahead of Malawi in bud formation, but really just getting started. There’s a bit of tacoing and curling of the tops since she won’t stop growing into the lights.

And here’s a pic of them all just to gauge the height differences. I’m glad I have a light for each plant now or it would be a mess. I don’t think I’ll mix sativa and indica grows again, just one or the other. Ah, who am I kidding, I’ll probably do it again next grow just to keep things hectic.

I love that song! It appears regularly in my workout playlist.
