How was the trip HP?

Survived the Great Quake of 2024. :) What, no, not the serious ones in the Pacific. The tiny little one which freaked out the media because it happened to them right in Manhattan. Felt throughout the northeast; the aftershock we felt seemed to last longer than the initial earthquake. Glad to learn ...

Okay, who is Jeff and how did he get the bomb?!?

A week into the baseball season, and there is already a gambling scandal too convoluted for a single quick post. Shohei Ohtani may or may not be a victim of theft, his interpreter allegedly stealing 4.5 million dollars to pay off illegal gambling debts to a bookie. Baseball might have been bet on, w...

now that my youtube algorithms are all messed up, this song brought up a few times previously has appeared: On Stage: White Rabbit - Grace Slick and The Great Society, 1966 - The Matrix The original before Grace Slick left to join the Jefferson Airplane and brought the song over whenever that exactl...

speaking of female singers: I never heard of this but this is a Frank Zappa production : GTO- Permanent Damage If ya don't want to click on the whole album, how 'bout a selection: I'm In Love With the OOO-OOO Man It's a stretch but it's "what if Frank Zappa made his own Shaggs but made it with ...

Mank- the dramatized story about the screenwriter of Citizen Kane, filmed by David Fincher based off a screenplay from his late father, the screenwriter and journalist/editor Jack Fincher. Smug and arrogant come to mind; 'specially when the story about the making of Citizen Kane begins to ape Kane i...

btw, nÜ ghostbusters, has a few brief scenes of Bill Murray. The first is a angle/reverse angle scene as a homage to his introductory scene from the original. Then he shows up again in the finale of the third act, knocks on the door improvises some lines then there is a hard cut to this jarring shot...

Hope all those celebrating had a pleasant Easter

I continue on in the hope that lewisaaron_1989's tastes are more singular and personal and don't have the pulse of the general viewing audience in mind. Leap of faith and all of that.

The guy who does the "What Makes This Song Stink" (RHCP episode) had a point about ripoffs (starting around 14:45) . Parker Jr. totally ripped off Huey Lewis but he added that bridge. --------------- I'm going for some stolen valor here. My whinge is at least there is some vague, shadowy A...

We went to a family matinee screening of "Ghostbusters: Frozen Empire" What can be affirmed is that it is indeed a movie product. I've seen worse, and left the theater relieved that it wasn't atrocious, but its less a movie than a series of vignettes off of a checklist of what the film nee...

MLB season started this morning (for America). The Dodgers beat the Padres 5-2; the game was played in Seoul.

Crisis averted. Several doctors have examined the elbow of Garrett Cole and none of them have found structural damage to the elbow or its ligaments.) The consensus sees it as a case of edema and that the muscle sits on the arm in a way that is irritating a nerve.* Edema is common for 34 year old pit...

They are. I'm a little burnt out on the female singer fronted rock band.

Les Haricots Sont Pas Sale https://youtu.be/NSRcxdTqNiM?si=0iDyJMFdWW-es1Qs Zydeco is a cajunism for haricots. “Hip et Taiaut” are standard Cajun dog names - like Fido and Bowser in English - and the nonsense lyrics are put to many white and black melodies. Alan Lomax was the ethnologist who tied H...
