It’s been three weeks since the last daily KGB Report, and I’ll spare you the excuses. I hope you’ll accept my assertion that the absence was justified, and that publication will resume Real Soon. (Too many Buckaroo Banzai references?)
The relaunch will occur next Monday, June 2.
Something for your troubles…
The obligatory quotation:
“You got to look on the bright side, even if there ain't one.”--Dashiell Hammett

The obligatory This Day In History:
On this day in 1963, Columbia Records released "The Freewheelin' Bob Dylan", the artist’s second studio album.
“Whereas his self-titled debut album Bob Dylan had contained only two original songs, this album represented the beginning of Dylan's writing contemporary lyrics to traditional melodies. Eleven of the thirteen songs on the album are Dylan's original compositions. It opens with "Blowin' in the Wind", which became an anthem of the 1960s, and an international hit for folk trio Peter, Paul and Mary soon after the release of the album. The album featured several other songs which came to be regarded as among Dylan's best compositions and classics of the 1960s folk scene: "Girl from the North Country", "Masters of War", "A Hard Rain's a-Gonna Fall" and "Don't Think Twice, It's All Right".” (Wikipedia)
