Faron Young – Sweet Dreams
An evening pause: From a 1956 television show, with all the cheesiness that goes with it.

Readers!
Please consider supporting my work here at Behind the Black. Your support allows me the freedom and ability to analyze objectively the ongoing renaissance in space, as well as the cultural changes -- for good or ill -- that are happening across America. Fourteen years ago I wrote that SLS and Orion were a bad ideas, a waste of money, would be years behind schedule, and better replaced by commercial private enterprise. Only now does it appear that Washington might finally recognize this reality.
In 2020 when the world panicked over COVID I wrote that the panic was unnecessary, that the virus was apparently simply a variation of the flu, that masks were not simply pointless but if worn incorrectly were a health threat, that the lockdowns were a disaster and did nothing to stop the spread of COVID. Only in the past year have some of our so-called experts in the health field have begun to recognize these facts.
Your help allows me to do this kind of intelligent analysis. I take no advertising or sponsors, so my reporting isn't influenced by donations by established space or drug companies. Instead, I rely entirely on donations and subscriptions from my readers, which gives me the freedom to write what I think, unencumbered by outside influences.
You can support me either by giving a one-time contribution or a regular subscription. There are four ways of doing so:
1. Zelle: This is the only internet method that charges no fees. All you have to do is use the Zelle link at your internet bank and give my name and email address (zimmerman at nasw dot org). What you donate is what I get.
2. Patreon: Go to my website there and pick one of five monthly subscription amounts, or by making a one-time donation.
3. A Paypal Donation or subscription:
4. Donate by check, payable to Robert Zimmerman and mailed to

My pause now is women’s curling championship. That’s a sport of my liking. Not climbing caves or hunting balls or pucks or in anyway breaking a sweat. Even if a curler breaks a sweat, because of the excitement(?), there’s ice around to cool it off. It’s meditative and even sedative to watch. This has to have been invented in Scotland, there’s no other possible explanation.
Sweden-USA, and they started the game by playing the German national anthem! Deutschland Deutschland über alles (und unter See). The players didn’t react, I suppose they don’t know the difference.
What about Elvis Presley? I don’t hear much of him anymore. You can’t keep on posting historical music videos and keep omitting the king.
How does one make a suggestion for an evening pause, I think I have one that is interesting.
