This is the 41st Mass during which I played drums in 2023. It feels like a good way to end 2023...
Until 2024, farewell!

Triumph of the Nerds Part II
Prepare yourself for a long transcript about the genesis of what is known, in 2023, as the "good old days" in the world of computers and technology. The link below will take you to a transcript of a PBS show during which legendary visionary computer nerds talk about the way things were when computers started becoming a reality.

Ranking the 6 WWE Superstars Most Likely to Dethrone Roman Reigns
Hah! This article makes the case for Cody Rhodes to dethrone Roman Reigns whereas my previous post was a link to an article that made the case for Rhodes NOT dethroning Roman Reigns! I absolutely love articles about pro wrestling.
If I could write out the way Roman Reigns loses, I would go with Sami Zayn, who is not even mentioned in the article. His history with being in the Bloodline was awesome and I would book him for winning the Royal Rumble and getting the opportunity for winning at WrestleMania 40. When Zayn has the mic, he is compelling enough to win me over. Plus, he used to be a joke with awful defeats over so many years. Triple H should reward him with being able to rise to the top. He has proven himself to be able to make a crowd be behind him and his story tells us that he has worked so hard for it. He would get the other good guys out there to support him and back him up.
I also think that Orton, Rhodes, Zayn, Owens, Rollins, and Punk need to form a group with a name. The Bloodline has a name for the heels and I think the good guys need to formally declare that they are on the same page. It should have happened before now but it is not too late. A name that says that they are an alliance with the purpose of eradicating the WWE of the Bloodline. I also think Jey Uso needs to reunite with his brother again. Maybe Zayn and Uso are the final two in the Royal Rumble?
I am not on-board yet with LA Knight as the next big thing for WWE. Maybe I should be, but I am not there yet. I am also not on-board with Rollins being the one to take Reigns from the top of the WWE. He has a great feud with CM Punk and putting Punk and Rollins in the same stable as uneasy allies? I think that would be awesome. Finally, I am not on-board with Sikoa winning the title, even if it means more Paul Heyman promos. Sikoa needs to speak more and develop his character on the mic. Otherwise, he is doing the Brock Lesnar routine... BORING!! I want the story to be told on the mic as well as during the match.
2024 ought to be very interesting. While I have not been watching WWE on Monday nights, I am seriously considering doing so in 2024, especially if the story becomes more captivating...
Cody Rhodes' Story Isn't Compelling Enough to Dethrone Roman Reigns' Historic Run

2023 Movies Predictions
This was a video that was published in 12-2022 about the movies that were to be released in 2023. I wanted to watch this video again to ascertain how many of the movies mentioned in the video were movies I saw in 2023.

Superman II (1980) | Movie Scenes | Movieclips
"Lex Luthor, ruler of Australia, activate the machine." is one of the hidden gems in Superman II. It's in the ___ clip of the playlist below.
Also, I typed "Superma" and "Superman" was not a suggested word. Odd!
Why Zuckuss Became a Bounty Hunter
"Zuckuss was the runt of his egg batch."
That has to be one of the funniest statements that I will hear today!
Every Steven Spielberg Movie Ranked
I have never seen Schindler's List or Saving Private Ryan. I have heard that both movies are tough to sit through and I fear - yes, fear! - watching those movies.
I recently watched Crystal Skull and I think it gets a lot of hate that I don't think is warranted. I wouldn't have it as low as the list in this video.

This Means I am Equal to 2022!
2023+2022+2021+2020+2019+2018+2017+2016+2015+2014+2013+2012+2011+2010+2009
1001+1001+0621+0742+1650+1857+1507+1364+0567+0636+0433+0259+0140+0121+0270
= 12168
This post is post #1001 in 2023. I have now matched the number from 2022, which I really wanted to reach in 2023. As you can see, I had a streak of less than 1000 posts in the two years prior to 2022 (2020 with 742 and 2021 with 621) which I don't understand that two year trend to this day. I probably messed my stats up by including these 128 links in a single post - https://prhmusic.blogspot.com/2021/12/128-links-to-various-stuff.html. I will also say that if I had created a separate post for each of the links in these posts - https://prhmusic.blogspot.com/search/label/Links%20to%20Elsewhere - I would have many more posts than the 12168 I currently have posted.
With 16 days remaining in 2023, I believe I will have many more posts than 12168 by the time 1-1-2024 arrives. I double I will reach 12,504 total posts on this blog by 1-1-2024 as that would mean I'd be posting an average of 21 posts / day - that's not going to happen. At the very least, I can envision posting 32 times (2 x 16 days) and then reaching 12200 by 1-1-2024.
