Carl Posted April 26, 2015 Report Posted April 26, 2015 Just learned that Cameron Diaz is married to one of the guys from Good Charlotte. Something about that seems a little off - maybe because I think of them as a generation apart.
Carl Posted July 17, 2015 Report Posted July 17, 2015 Heard an '80s cover band doing "Jack & Diane" yesterday. When they got the line before Jack scratches his head, I heard it for the first time as "Flexes his thoughts for a moment."I think it's really "Reflects" or "Fixes", but I like it as flex. After all, if you can flex your muscles, why not your thoughts?
miamisammy29 Posted August 7, 2015 Report Posted August 7, 2015 Isn't it "COLLECTS his thoughts for a moment"?
Carl Posted August 7, 2015 Report Posted August 7, 2015 Maybe it is Collects, but I still like Flexes better. Gonna use that in conversation: Let me flex my thoughts for a moment.Let's see if this new emoji works Wow, I guess they can be whatever size we want.
Carl Posted September 4, 2015 Report Posted September 4, 2015 Testing more emojis. Let's see this bad boy.
Carl Posted September 8, 2015 Report Posted September 8, 2015 "Can't Feel My Face" is the closest I've heard to '80s Michael Jackson.
Jenny Posted September 17, 2015 Report Posted September 17, 2015 I agree, Carl, but Bruno Mars' music and Justin Timberlake's "Rock Your Body" also seem MJ inspired
Otokichi Posted October 3, 2015 Report Posted October 3, 2015 Well, Bruno Mars was a preteen Elvis Presley impersonator, so I'd expect the ghost of "Col. Tom Parker" to be present.;)
Carl Posted October 9, 2015 Report Posted October 9, 2015 Hoping there will be a day when the word Isis is once again best-known as a Bob Dylan song. And a beautiful one at that:Isis, oh, Isis, you mystical childWhat drives me to you is what drives me insaneI still can remember the way that you smiledOn the fifth day of May in the drizzlin’ rain
miamisammy29 Posted October 9, 2015 Report Posted October 9, 2015 Isis is also the name of Bud Bundy's rubber love doll.
RonJonSurfer Posted October 13, 2015 Report Posted October 13, 2015 Hoping there will be a day when the word Isis is once again best-known as a Bob Dylan song. And a beautiful one at that:Isis, oh, Isis, you mystical childWhat drives me to you is what drives me insaneI still can remember the way that you smiledOn the fifth day of May in the drizzlin’ rainIt's a fantastic song too. I enjoyed it for years before I ever had to hear about the negative use of Isis.
Otokichi Posted October 17, 2015 Report Posted October 17, 2015 Did you know that there's a Comic, er, Graphic Novel Superhero by that name?
Carl Posted October 26, 2015 Report Posted October 26, 2015 From the Queen in Montreal 1981 concert. Not sure if Freddie was drinking the keg beer, the Heineken or the coffee.
RonJonSurfer Posted October 27, 2015 Report Posted October 27, 2015 I'm betting against the coffee...assuming that's what is in those cups.
Otokichi Posted October 28, 2015 Report Posted October 28, 2015 Coffee was the best thing available...
RonJonSurfer Posted October 28, 2015 Report Posted October 28, 2015 I picked up a few bags of Kona Joes coffee when I was in Hawaii this past May. It was wonderful and I like to think it would have been endorsed by Freddie Mercury.
Carl Posted December 21, 2015 Report Posted December 21, 2015 When I hear references to sleighs or their bells in modern Christmas songs, I think it's a cop-out. It's a Christmas archetype, but it has nothing to do with anyone's actual experience with Christmas in the last 50 years.
RonJonSurfer Posted December 21, 2015 Report Posted December 21, 2015 especially when it will be 72 degrees on Christmas Eve.....
Otokichi Posted December 21, 2015 Report Posted December 21, 2015 "72 degrees Fahrenheit"? That's an evening temperature around here!
RonJonSurfer Posted December 22, 2015 Report Posted December 22, 2015 It's a record around here....if it were 52 we'd say it was lovely out for Christmas...but 72...got my present right there.
Otokichi Posted December 22, 2015 Report Posted December 22, 2015 And here's a poster for Snowbirds in need of a slope to ski on.;)
Jenny Posted January 11, 2016 Report Posted January 11, 2016 It has happened...Nirvana has become music that is played at the supermarket. "All Apologies" was playing last week during my shift. Man, I feel old!!!!!!
MarcM Posted January 16, 2016 Report Posted January 16, 2016 Yeah, that was a subtle reminder for me, too, Jenny. I quiz Mya on the artists playing at Trader Joes!
Otokichi Posted January 16, 2016 Report Posted January 16, 2016 Right. Does the megaplex or corner strip mall have this on Muzak?
