The Doors – Rider on the Storm

It’s Wednesday. Woohoo! The Doors’ Robby Krieger and John Densmore reunite for a special Playing For Change performance, an organization dedicated to spreading messages of peace, hope, and freedom through music. Joined by the Lakota Drum Group, Lukas and Micah Nelson, Sierra Ferrell, Don Was, Rami Jaffee, and many more, the result is a powerful reminder of what’s possible when music brings the world together.

Playing For Change honors the timeless legacy of The Doors with a global “Riders on the Storm” Song Around The World, featuring original members Krieger and Densmore, a tribute to Ray Manzarek, and the iconic vocals of Jim Morrison. With more than 20 musicians and dancers from eight different countries, the performance celebrates the band’s 60th anniversary while reimagining a classic anthem through a shared spirit of unity and connection.

Beaver Sighting!

It’s Tuesday. Looks like we’ve got another beaver sighting, folks—and this one didn’t just wander in from the woods. A sharp-eyed reader sent this beauty along, clearly someone who knows a quality beaver when he sees one. Not only is it rocking a surprisingly fashionable look, it’s also dropping some borderline-unhinged life advice like it’s been around the block a few times. Cute? Sure. Innocent woodland creature? Absolutely not.

Did It Again

It’s Monday. Wow. History was made Saturday night as the Chicago Bears defeated the Green Bay Packers in a playoff game for the first time since Franklin D. Roosevelt was in the White House. Chicago erased a late 18-point deficit to stun its longtime rival in a wild-card showdown at Soldier Field, securing its first postseason victory in the NFL’s oldest rivalry since December 1941—just days after the attack on Pearl Harbor.

For much of the night, it appeared the drought would continue. The Bears trailed 21–3 at halftime and still faced a daunting 27–16 deficit with less than seven minutes remaining in the fourth quarter. That’s when quarterback Caleb Williams suddenly came to life. He led back-to-back touchdown drives, aided by a missed Green Bay field goal in between, to give Chicago a late lead.

The Packers had one final chance to respond but the Chicago’s defense held firm, forcing an incompletion on the Packer’s final pass to seal a 31–27 victory. Once again the Bears come from behind to steal the win. The result is all that really matters—but it’d be nice if the Bears didn’t spike everyone’s blood pressure in the final minutes every damn week!
