Willie Nelson) and Best Country Duo/Group Performance (“High Note” with Dierks Bentley).






Notably: From Statista: “March was the 10th hottest consecutive month on record for each respective month of the year, according to new data from the European Union’s Copernicus Climate Change Service. The average global surface air temperature was 14.14°C last month (57.9°F), which is 1.68°C (3°F) warmer than in the late 1800s, when many countries started burning fossil fuels en masse. March also saw the highest monthly value on record for sea surface temperatures outside of the polar latitudes, with an average of 21.07°C (69.93°F), which is marginally above the 21.06°C recorded for February. “The global average temperature is the highest on record, with the past 12 months being 1.58°C above pre-industrial levels”, Samantha Burgess Deputy Director of Copernicus Climate Service said.  “Stopping further warming requires rapid reductions in greenhouse gas emissions.” And hurricane season is ahead.

And even when experience has taught them, the lesson only serves for that day; inasmuch as the foolish in prosperity are infidels to the possibility of adversity; they see the sun in heaven, and believe it to be far too bright ever to set. And even, as suddenly as the bravest and fleetest ships, while careering in pride of canvas over the sea, have been struck, as by lightning, and quenched out of sight; even so, do some lordly men, with all their plans and prospects gallantly trimmed to the fair, rushing breeze of life, and with no thought of death and disaster, suddenly encounter a shock unforeseen, and go down, foundering, into death.

–From Melville’s Redburn (1849).
