Tune in, turn on and chill out with Classical MPR on your FM dial


99.5 is where you'll find Classical MPR on your radio dial. It's also the percentage of beautiful music you'll hear while tuned in. No commercials. Very little news. Just Beethoven, Bach, Mozart, et al. The other one half of one percent of Classical MPR is devoted to the taxpayer funded left leaning horse hockey they pipe in from National Public Radio a few times a day. But it's easily avoided. So if you want to stay sane between now and November 3, tune in, turn on and chill out with Classical MPR, 99.5 on your FM dial. And please, pledge a few bucks to help keep them on the air.

If strength or mobility issues are keeping you from riding a bicycle, you need to look into an e-bike. For about $1000 the Aventon e-bike (available at Eriks bike shop locations or online) has done an amazing job for Jean. We can ride together, get exercise, and I can't quite keep up with her. Check out the video review.

Facebook Cleanup? How to Bulk Delete your Old Facebook Posts

It eliminates the untold drudgery of deleting posts one at a time. Maybe you want to back up your old posts first, which you can do in Facebook. Or maybe you just want to make it all go away. You can specify date ranges. It works well. You can donate to the author if you find it useful.
