Never knew either of them, but my wife's grandfather shot & killer her grandmother when my wife was about 8 years old. Her mother testified against her own father (wife's grandfather) at his murder trial. I think he did about 20 years in Huntsville, and died alone in some shack somewhere in east Texas. My wife never had any contact with him & only vaguely remembers him. He died shortly after we were married (in 2002) & it turned out my wife & her two siblings were to inherit a decent amount of money from him, about $20k each. The 3 of them were all repulsed at the thought of taking anything from him, but their mother convinced them they needed to accept it & to think of it as a gift from their grandmother.

Is this one of those movies where I'm going to have to google to find out what the fuck is going on??
Depends. Do you find yourself distracted by bright, shiny objects?

And I'm not trying to be a dick. I'm assuming that was your intent.

I don't know what all their criteria was & if work in a previous band counts against a solo artist, but in what world would a publication omit Van Morrison's 'Brown Eyed Girl' while simultaneously claiming that 'Baby One More Time' changed the world?

"What happens if China develops the vaccine? Will the US have access to it?"

She "founded" a company just like she was "drafted" to the women's football league. She's lying.

"They should all be able to get a test, but that's the problem with a question like that. If someone wants a test they can be tested."

Going off on another female reporter who's asking him when people will be able to get tests. "We can't win. I know you better than you know you. First we didn't have enough tests but now that we have the best tests you're not happy we have tests."

Now claiming the Dems are going to "double, triple, quadruple your taxes."
-
Now he's walking it back, saying we have "prevailed in testing." "That's what I'm talking about. We have a great testing capacity, the best in the world."

Nothing says confident leadership like a 10'x12' sign screaming America Leads the World in Testing.

Who was the fedora wearing dude who won the place 6 seat the last time she ran? Then it appeared like she was getting real friendly with him wink, wink. Suddenly he appointed her to some Austin Women's Advisory Council for a 2 year term. After looking up the minutes for these meetings it was revealed she showed up for 2 of 8 meetings before dropping out.

Hot August Night - Neil Diamond (a live album)
Great submission. And a great album. My dad played the 8-track constantly in our '73 Plymouth Fury Sport Suburban station wagon.

So Abbott agrees that everyone should be "encouraged" to wear a mask, but his order supersedes and local jurisdiction and prohibits any fines for people not wearing masks.
Is this like 'praying for rain' during a drought?

I remember years ago seeing an interview with REM and Bill Berry telling the crew that he lobbied for every album they ever released to be named "Trolling for Olives.' It never happened, but that's pretty damn good.

Yeah, I know. She's part of a circle of friends from the neighborhood pub. Everyone loves her husband who's just a great guy. She's the one people just kind of put up with. Less so, lately.I mean, why -
A Trumpkin friend of mine is totally carrying his water over the whole "injecting disinfectant" debacle. It's "the media" blowing it out of proportion. He was just "brainstorming" and anyone who doesn't see the good he's doing is purposely trying to hurt the country.
What a strange, sad hill to die on: trying to justify the idiocy of Donald Trump.

I still haven't seen Lawrence of Arabia. It was on TCM last weekend but after weeks inside I couldn't convince myself to 4 hours in front of the TV. I've gotta see it at a Paramount or Drafthouse screening someday.

Dammit. Pray for oil & gas industry photo that's been popping up on fb feed isn't loading.

No bullshit moment. We were just sitting down to some grilled flank steak & veggies when Mrs. GOTJ handed me the remote control to find something on TV. I said "if we're lucky we'll find something like 'Casablanca' on TCM" just as I changed the channel to find Ben Manckiewicz introducing it.
"What nationality are you?"
"I'm a drunkard."
"That makes Rick a citizen of the world."

Albums that must be listened to front to back in their entirety

TwiceHorn brings up a good point. Sheryl Crow has announced she will no longer release albums--only singles--and I suspect many pop acts will follow. But most record company contracts are based on the artists releasing x-number of albums over a defined period. Perhaps that model has been thrown out the window as well.
