They seem to be getting very big, very fast, and they're moving around more. Every time I check in on them, I worry that they're going to fall out of the nest. Mom and dad need to build it up.

I only look at this one but apparently there are several. The wife is looking at one in Iowa that is downright slovenly. Old carcasses, sticks litter the nest; lazy mom/dad. Do not question the parenting of the President and First Lady.

I can kind of wrap my head around some rock stars exiting. Bowie hadn't been healthy for years, and it defied medicine that Lemmy and Motorhead were still putting out records in 2015. Paul Kantner looked like death for years, and who'd cared about the Jefferson Airplane in the last 20 years anyway. But Prince? Neil Young, Ringo, [insert Stone here]... they're next. Not Prince. Not the guy from Chappelle's basketball-and-pancakes sketch!

It is all Prince on the local alt-rock station:

http://www.thecurrent.org/listen

And Minnesota Public Radio is devoting all its programming right now to Prince. It would truly be hard to overestimate the influence he had over this community and the love this community has for him.

It's hard to overestimate the influence he had on music generally. Beatles comparisons are a sort of Godwin's Law when talking about this stuff. But they fit here in the regard that no sane person can say he doesn't really love at least three or four Beatles tunes. The same goes for Prince. (It also fits for Bowie, but I'm a bit burned out talking about Bowie right now, given that period of mourning has just ended.)

And if Purple Rain isn't a pop culture touchstone immediately rewinding you to your early teens, you weren't clinically alive during that decade.
