So, Ozzy Osbourne passed away earlier this year, and what was wild was, he had just done his "final concert." If you've followed KISS or other bands who have supposedly retired, you know how many farewell tours they did. Not Ozzy. He said it was his final show. He performed the whole thing sitting down literally on a throne. Then he passed like a week later. He went out like a king. I'd say he was taken too soon, but given how hard he lived, I'm glad he lasted as long as he did.

Unlike most who grew up in the 70s and 80s, Ozzy wasn't one of my favourites, at least not for most of the time. I didn't even discover him until the 90s, with the No More Tears album, and while the title track was a fast favourite, my favourite ended up being Road to Nowhere, the final track on the album. (It's interesting how rare the final track on any given album is the best one — I also think AC/DC did it with Dirty Deeds Done Dirt Cheap and the song Ride On, though the title track is way more popular — but again that's just my opinion — No More Tears and Mama, I'm Coming Home are both way more popular.)

(I haven't said it yet on this comm, but I'll say it now — a lot of people are saying em dashes (the long ones I'm using) are a telltale sign of AI. I will affirm truthfully that I am not an AI bot, but I'm not 100% in the clear. AI bots trained on language from forums, from Reddit, and similar. So when you're building a data set, you probably don't want the lower quality stuff. You want to train it on people with better language skills. So you find people who, online, used the skills they were taught in English class, who use things like em dashes, semicolons... what I'm saying is, AI bots use em dashes because of people like me who have always used them. Of course, we didn't profit any from AI bots training off our posts and comments, and we weren't asked, either.)
