What is the first website you go to? The Boneyard, or something else? Perhaps a favorite website you'd like to share.

I go to Pandora first to get my music going in the background, then I go to the Boneyard, hoping to see that a highly coveted recruit from the 2019 class has committed to UConn!! From there, it's to infinity and beyond. :D

I turn ESPN on the TV all morning, with occasional moves toward FS1 or 2, while computerizing.
 
Facebook, Courant, Twitter, Boneyard... emails!
 
Bing, my homepage, for it's photo of the day only (Google my search) > Yahoo eMails (...welcome to ad and spam world) > Launch my Quicken, download yesterdays quotes/transactions from brokerage/financial institutions. (this will determine the mood I'll be in) for the Boneyard. :rolleyes:

Boneyard ...interesting, informative, and real people with their own opinions
 
email, lottery, weather, vanguard, Facebook, reddit.

Twitter usually. I have bookmark tabs of all my favorite sites (BY, rebkell, facebook, etc) that make it easy to click through to see what is new.

Thanks! That never occurred to me to do. Except in my case if would be amazon. I'll have to try that.

I go to sina-drums on You Tube to listen to one of the greatest female drummers who is only 19 years of age. I usually listen to one of my favorites while having my first cup of coffee. She does drum covers and one of the best I've ever seen is In-A-Gadda-Da-Vidda. I also like her cover of Wipe Out by the Surfaris. My dad was a drummer for most of my life and he was a good jazz drummer, but this young lady just blows my mind and on some days I will listen to her for hours.

If you like her, try the master of the single and double stroke, bang away style, Tony Williams. May he RIP, the king of dynamic drumming. Here he was 27 years old.

While my dad was stationed in Aleutian Islands during WW II, he played the drums for Bob Hope during one of his USO Tours. The band drummer was sick and he filled in because he was the only drummer on base. He had his own jazz trio for many years and had Ike Cole, Nat King Cole's younger brother over to our house whenever Ike was in town with his trio. Both trios would jam in our basement for hours.

Didn't he play drums for the great Miles Davis before forming his own jazz groups?

Yeah. He started with Miles when he was 18 or 19. Like Bill Cobham he was a very physical, quick handed drummer. Unlike Billy at the time he broke less sticks. Tony sounded like machine guns. Billy sounded like a freight train.

You lucky son of man. Funny how as children we take things for granted as if that's the way it's supposed to be, and everyone has it that way.
