Swede’s Photographs

Good morning. 😴⏰☕

12 April 2025

Back in the late '60s and early '70s, the eight-track tape was king. I mounted a player under the dash of my old '50 Chevy pickup truck. For some reason, I also added a tachometer to the steering column—not because I needed one, but simply because I thought it looked cool. Anyway, back on track to the eight-track. I had albums by Steppenwolf, the Eagles, Chicago, and more. It wasn't long, though, before the eight-track faded away, replaced by the cassette player, which itself was eventually overtaken by the compact disc (CD). CDs are still around today but are quickly disappearing, giving way to technologies like MP3s. Nowadays, I usually purchase digital downloads and load them onto a memory stick to plug into my devices and my car that has a USB port.

Pelican on Duty "The image captures a pelican calmly perched on a wooden post that has a diamond-shaped sign attached to it. This post is surrounded by marshy terrain with tall grasses in the foreground and a serene body of water in the backdrop. The sky above is clear and vividly blue, contributing to the peaceful atmosphere of the scene. In the top right corner, the photograph is credited to "Swede's Photographs."" - Copilot

I had only intended to post this as a reply to my own "toot" on the [Fediverse](on-the-fediverse-and-fedifriends.html), but it *actually* went over my [instance](https://polymaths.social)'s post limit of 5,000 characters, so here we go! 😆

My only beef with JSON is that it doesn't allow comments. Comments would be very helpful.
