I still don't know what that orange colored "patch" on the top of Yondu Udonta's head is made of. With a blue head, it certainly is noticeable. I dunno, credit for not being a cannibal? Sure, why not? Maybe an Earthling wasn't considered human? If so Captain Yondu deserves more credit. I...

I'll approach Roku slowly and deliberately, it seems like a very reasonably priced piece of gear. My pocketbook is recovering from costly purchases of late. I only watch DVD's/BluRays on that Samsung Smart tv. Yes, I was estupido in buying it, I barely noticed the "smart" feature and had no idea...

Wow, I had no idea that you leaned towards solitude so long ago. I think I was too crazy to pull that off back then, I enjoyed babbling with people who understood me more or less. Amazing that you saw Dylan when he cared about making a good performance. I'm told that it's a total waste of a...

I think that "service drops" are supposed to dip into a "U," at least at the place of business or dwelling end. This greatly helps to keep rainwater away from the service joltage. Even though this great land is imho gradually becoming a third world country, my copy of the 1978 edition of the...

I admit that my shrubberies could use more care. They look fine from a distance, though.

I never really enjoyed country before an old Viet-Nam vet pal I hung out with in Oklahoma City during the summer of '78 introduced Emmylou Harris to me. Quarter Moon in a Ten Cent Town -unforgettable, what a great song! I became a fan almost overnight, I was fortunate in seeing her live three...

Referencing Gizmo's post number 51. I was referring to the Captain in the Comic Book Series that displayed a sense of taste not permitted in Peoria--or about anywhere else in this great land at that time. "Cpt" Peter Quill in Guardians of the Galaxy is an entirely different subject. Hang on, I...

I saw maybe a half hour of Emmylou and Mark together on stage somewhere. I could easily be wrong but it seemed to me that Mr Knopfler wanted to get close to Ms Harris, but she wanted nothing of it. Emmylou was a knockout when she was younger not to mention a fine, fine musician and especially...

I haven't really looked in to Roku--don't it sound very furrin? Plus it's new to me so as an oldster I'm a-scared of anything new. Dang it, I just remembered the real fun of a broken nose. Oh yeah, and a doctor that thought that prescribing aspirin for that pain was going too far. May he rot in...

Microwave ovens and... I know the album. It's just that imho, Mr Knopfler doesn't sing well, so I misremember the lyrics more than I should. It doesn't matter that his voice isn't that great, his guitar playing is good enough to cover everything.

I've never seen it, I must say it looks interesting. I haven't sat through one thousand artsy phartsy crappy movies. Wouldn't say no to about four hundred, though! IMDB says that Burmese Harp (1956) had one nomination for the Oscar. It's supposed to be available as a disc on Amazon.
