QB -1 Missed acidhead, but I did try the alternate pangram. Such a shame it didn't work.

acidhead was my last word. Wasn't even sure it was a real word, but why not try?

Got the QB today. No strange words. My last was one that is in the puzzle almost once a week, and I almost always miss it. I don't know why I block on it, it's a very common word. But I got it today eventually.

Since we are lacking data, we have to fall back on the general condition that, in the aggregate, unions are good for both workers and communities

got the QB. My last word was a very common word. Can't believe it took me that long to see it.

What's that expression?  Oh yes - Position!  Position!  Position!

There’s a place in Helvetica waiting for John Attridge.

Kiffness' Top 10 Cat Songs! I'm teaching my cats the lyrics. The one Joanne shared is gathering donations for an animal shelter. My kind of guy. And my 2 TNRd ferals are practicing dance routines.

I am not familiar enough with Ms. Swift's music to come up with the appropriate lyric in response, but I assume the social media will have plenty of examples - 

Oh man.  Really?  

Maybe my knowledge of Taylor Swift’s music is skewed by having a teenage daughter. But the perfect lyric is from a song that was released when my kid was just starting elementary school and I was very aware of it then. It’s from perhaps her best-known song of all time, and that’s saying quite a lot. 

Anyway, the lyric is “haters gonna hate hate hate hate hate and the players gonna play play play play play. I’m just gonna shake shake shake shake shake SHAKE IT OFF, SHAKE IT OFF.
