It seems you are under the impression I am preferring local time instead of UTC time. I do not.
I prefer DateTimeOffset over DateTime.
With DateTime you have to be carefull not making mistakes. DateTimeOffset eliminates several of these possible mistakes.

If you care for vegetable instruments, you should check up The Vegetable Orchestra.
The Vegetable Orchestra Literally Plays with Their Food[^] (YouTube) is a nice presentation of how they make and use their instruments. For a concert performance without disturbing voice comments, try The Vegetable Orchestra - Transplants[^] - there are several others at YouTube.
This definitely is not "Techno" style - all their instruments are unplugged, all acoustic. I didn't see them playing water melon, but it seems like their standard bass drum is a pumkin.

Fair enough if you reject any link to YouTube. I never heard of malware spread by ordinary YouTube watching, but I may be ignorant. If what you intend to say is that 'I have against YouTube in general, and I will not support it by navigating to it', you are of course welcome to - but you draw much more attention to YouTube that way, making people a lot more aware of it. Either you should state why you refuse to watch YouTube movies, or people will as 'Why not? There is no reason for your rejection'.
Besides: I could of course repeatedly state that my favorite hobby is to not collect stamps. Who would care about what I do not do? Who would care about your not watching a YouTube movie?
If you do not trust it to be a YouTube link even if the bottom line (in most browsers, or a separate field) says so, then the implication is that you do not trust any new link, no matter how authenticated it is - only those links that you know from before. That would limit your web browsing down to what I would consider useless. It may be sufficient for you, though!

Perhaps another interpretation of the fine gentleman's statement is he considers viewing people playing w/ their food a not pleasurable experience.

thanks Bernard. I posted a clarification. Apologies to the fruit musician.

I agree.
I am a depression baby and was taught to never, ever, waste or play with food. I still don't.
During the war: "clean your plate, the children in Europe are starving". Not sure of the correlation.

If you watch the YT movie from The Vegetable Orchestra (I gave the link in an earlier post), you'll see that the food isn't wasted: After the concert, they cut up their instruments and boil a vegetable soup to be served to the audience.
I guess that is more that what can be said about most Halloween pumpkins.

Ordered some lead-in stands yesterday, and got a message from the courier early this morning that it would be delivered between 09:08 and 12:08 - what a surprise, it was delivered at 16:20.
But it doesn't surprise me given I live in a week rural location...
Then at 11:00 this morning I placed an order for next day delivery and it was delivered at 20:04 ... that was a surprise as I got an order confirmation 10 minutes becks the courier knocked on the door!
Γ can kinda understand that in a city, but it here?
Colour me impressed with Amazon (and unimpressed with DHL)

They are better than UPS (Ur Parcel Smashed) at least. I know one company who uses sacrificial packaging so they have something to crush without damaging the contents ...

Back around 2006, I was integrating DHL into the shipping system I was working on. I had a large certification process to go through with DHL. There were multiple instances where I sent a question to DHL about a certification step I couldn't pass with the details. Response was almost always, we'll update the certification steps with the correct answer. That was my first experience with DHL and I wasn't impressed.
