There's Something's Happening Here

 Many of us may remember that those words are the beginning of the song "For What It's Worth" by Buffalo Springfield. recorded in Dec of 1966 (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/For_What_It%27s_Worth).  The next line, "But what it is ain't exactly clear," seems to apply to our lost post about the winter of 2024-25.   

After publishing that post, we wanted to make some additions.  However, we were unable to sign in as we usually do.  After some experimenting, we were able to do so.  Normally, when the cursor is put on the title of a post, the cursor become a pointed finger.  Clicking on that will redirect one to that post only.  However, placing the cursor on the title "Winter News 2024-25" results in no change.  To make the additions necessary we had to scroll down to the next post "Harry and the Aurora Body Shop Softball Team."  Then we could sign in and get access to the winter news post and make the additions.  

This post is mainly a test to see if the winter news post is just an anomaly or if something has changed with the blog configurations.  

By the way, the above song is often thought to be a protest about the Vietnam War.  However, that idea is incorrect. According to https://www.google.com/search?gs_ssp=eJzj4tVP1zc0TDMyMykzNCo2YPQSTssvUijPSCxRyCxRL1Yozy8qyQAAu0kLIQ&q=for+what+it%27s+worth&rlz=1CAVHDQ_enUS956&oq=For+what+it&gs_lcrp=EgZjaHJvbWUqCggBEC4YsQMYgAQyDQgAEAAY4wIYsQMYgAQyCggBEC4YsQMYgAQyBggCEEUYOTIHCAMQABiABDIHCAQQABiABDIHCAUQABiABDIHCAYQABiABDIGCAcQRRhB0gEINTI2NWowajeoAgCwAgA&sourceid=chrome&ie=UTF-8, the song “For What It's Worth,” by Buffalo Springfield is often mistaken for an anti-Vietnam War song, but really the song reflects group's stance on anti-loitering laws and the Sunset Strip Riots of 1966. "Another source says "

“FOR WHAT IT’S WORTH,” BY BUFFALO SPRINGFIELD IS OFTEN MISTAKEN FOR AN ANTI-VIETNAM WAR SONG, BUT REALLY THE SONG REFLECTS GROUP’S STANCE ON ANTI-LOITERING LAWS AND THE SUNSET STRIP RIOTS OF 1966."

The problems still exist.  We cannot sign in as we usually do.  If anyone has the solution, please let us know in the comment box below (if that even still works).
