I didn't even bother to read, forget speed read, the Isaacson book; just a few reviews. The Guardian's being the best, I think, having a wonderfully destructive go at both subject *and* author. I found it telling that, hating his father as he did, Elon chose him as the custodial parent over his mother!
He was eight ... a masochist in the making.
The Wenner riff reminded me of Larry Summers saying women couldn't do Science, and the asshat de tutti asshats, Jerry Lewis, saying he didn't like female comedians. (Chris Hitchens, as well. That was a disappointment.) It is interesting that Wenner, long out of the business, decided to make a remark, at the expense of women and Blacks, that will muddy up his name and reputation for ... well, forever. Tant pis.
It would be nice, too, if the press would knock it off with the political crazies, particularly the largest and loudest who speaks English as a second language.
Speaking of "Philosophy of Rock," Dylan's "The Philosophy of Modern Song" is crap. (Nice photographs, dopey text.) Going by one of the documentaries, he's also a bore. I still like the music.

Too bad indeed. Wenner, Musk and several others in the outrageous celebrity shoebox, need to be silenced...as in STOP MAKING THEM NEWSWORTHY!

Indeed. That was exactly to whom I referred when I said “others in the celebrity shoebox!”

Whiplash reading this.
