El día que la guitarra dejó de ser un instrumento y pasó a ser una extensión de su cerebro. Lo de Eddie Van Halen en este video no tiene ningún sentido técnico, es pura magia extraterrestre. ¡Qué maldito demente! 🎸🤯💨 ¿Alguien lo supera? 👀 👇

The County of San Diego urges residents to prepare for potential power outages and take steps to prevent heat-related illnesses as temperatures climb.
Visit the link in our bio for more information on how to be prepared.

The County rolled out a new influenza vaccination dashboard this week, just as flu shots hit clinics and pharmacies across the region. The interactive tool lets you track flu, COVID-19 and RSV vaccination rates—and it is updated weekly to help you stay informed.
The County urges everyone to get their vaccines this Fall. Aligning with the California Department of Public Health (CDPH) and the West Coast Health Alliance, the message is clear: protecting yourself helps protect your family and community. countynewscenter.com/county-…

Don Rickles sitting across from Joan Rivers while she’s hosting The Tonight Show is dangerous.
He doesn’t ease in.
He starts roasting her outfit, her marriage, her workaholic habits, and her whole life within the first minute.
Joan is one of the few people who can actually keep up with him, and even she spends half the time just trying not to fall out of the chair laughing.
Two of the fastest, meanest, most affectionate comics of all time going head to head with zero safety net.
If this isn't what peak chemistry looks like.
