    Otis! My man!

    Sixties Soul Axiom - Hearing, playing, singing or feelingTry a Little Tenderness makes you a better person, ipse dixit, world without end, amen. Four tempo changes steadily building to the GOT-Ta-GOT-Ta climax, trumpet, sax, Al Jackson on drums, Steve Cropper, Duck Dunn, Booker T, and the great Pinetopper himself. The version from Monterey Pop is an all-time high water mark of soul music. You know she is waiting just anticipating
  3. Height schmeight, physique schymisique, it's the acting. Forrest Gump's character as written was 6'6" and ~250# but Tom Hanks nicely finessed that discrepancy. Yeah, it's hard today to separate Tom Cruise off screen with his character but I thought he pulled off his Reacher roles pretty well. I'm glad he did because I had never heard of the books. After all the pissing snd moaning about bad casting, I downloaded a random audiobook and was soon hooked. I'm looking forward to watching the new series for the first faithful rendition of a climactic scene where Reacher has the drop on an evil character, when most fiction writers would insert a line expounding on some moral virtue or other. Lee Child has Reacher shoot the thug between the eyes.
  4. And it has perhaps the worst song ever playing during the opening credits. Horrendously schmaltzy with shrieking vocals & inane lyrics. Agree with this! It was another load of dreck from Stephen "On and On" Bishop.
  5. Just enjoyed DVR rewatching China Syndrome for first time in many years. Dovetailed well with audiobook Midnight in Chernobyl also enjoyed recently. Very well done visually for pre-HD era, and a complex subject. Irony was that Michael Douglas, who produced and costarred in TCS, and a supporting actor or two with speaking roles, suffered from the inability to pronounce "nuclear." He said "nyew-kew-lur" every fucking time, and there were several. Kudos to TCM, Eddie, Ben, Ted, Jane, and the whole schmeer.
  6. I'm like the kid in Animal House gazing at Playboy when the catapulted bunny babe landed in his bed. "Thank you, God!" I for one am looking forward to Auburn at MSU coming this season. The cowbell-wielding Pirate will mess with Aunt Gussie's mind all day and the War Boogers won't be able to count on their home field to comp them with six or seven false starts by the opposition (see, e.g., Bama in the recent 2019 debacle on the Plains (sigh)).
  7. Enough. GTFO (all the way out) of Iraq, Afghanistan, Syria and Africa before we all wake up as dust motes. Spend those billions on improving this country and educating its citizens so they won't grow up to be dumb fucks engaged in permanent war. Somebody start a website or streaming service that reports nothing but facts. I'll ante up a year's worth of what I now pay my dipshit cable company.
  8. I'm like the Far Side dog watching the cat peek in the dryer with the "Cat Fud" sign on the open door. "Oh please, oh please!" let Mike Leach come to Starkville. He'll be holding his first press conference at the bovine semen collection corral. Scoff all you like, but at least two very good things are produced at MSU: Christmas cheese balls and premium ice cream
  9. Chopper is right. For anyone bent this way, here are two food destination suggestions, one near BR and one near NO: Near BR - Pat's at Henderson, right on the Atchafalaya levee: http://patsfishermanswharf.com/ Near NO - Boudreau and Thibodeau's at Houma: http://bntcajuncookin.com/ Really good food and really good times. And for the soul while en route: KBON https://streema.com/radios/KBON An off the wall radio station with the most eclectic mix of Zydeco, Swamp Pop and good old time music I've ever heard. The local business ads and remote dj segments are serious and fucking hilarious because of it. Be sure to arrive about an hour before kickoff in time to see the Golden Girls step to a halt right by the curb on the North side of the stadium after leading the LSU band across campus. It will be hot and muggy in September, and their beautimus bodies will be glistening with nubile dew, as tiny drops of sweat plunge in slow motion downward into world class tawny cleavage. You guys are gonna have a blast and if the Horns play like they did against the Youths, you'll win it.
  10. Someone identify the Fansville stadium. Been druving me crazy all year but I can't place it. It has a postwar construction 50,000 capacity Blue Ridge Mountains look but I can't place it. Please God don't let it be CGI. B. Culpepper's shtick got real old real fast with me. Don't miss him at all. 3. Fansville straw bubbling sound is annoying as hell. Milf yessss.
  11. Best watch out for her roommate though, laddie, especially if ye be walkin about on the moors.
  12. Well, I had a grand total of one fucking day to enjoy Bama squeezing the impudence out of the khaki, maize and blue. Then this shit happens. Despite that, I would pay good money to witness the initial encounter between counsel Moses and the insurance claim adjuster, hopefully a prissy, chinless British upper-class chap of the Monty Python Twit Olympics variety. The Bizarro world in which His Majesty dwells must truly be in an alternate universe. Psilocybin is a helluva drug. Adjuster: Mr. Moses, what is the basis for your evaluation that this claim is worth seventy-four zillion Swiss francs? Moses: Wop bop a loo bop ba lop bam boom, ipse dixit res ipsa loquitur.
  13. Engine running and doors open on ref bus
  14. Cue Dandy Don
  15. This x 1,000. I will send these misguided fuckers $50/month NOT to show the pitiful animals. My wife and daughter keep their fingers on the last channel button to avoid these ads. Horrible and evidently based on a focus group of crazy cat ladies. Just throw up the organization name and the website or phone number. It's not necessary to torment healthy, caring people who love animals and already donate to your organization with gratuitous video of innocent, miserable kittens and abandoned, malnourished, shivering dogs. Shades of Sally Struthers.
  16. Any random day TCM provides more quality filmed entertainment than theaters or streaming or any other medium. Thank you, you gap-toothed Jane Fonda fucker, you. I'll DVR Key Largo just to hear Lauren Bacall answer the phone in that whiskey and smokes breathy voice, "Hhhhotell Lahgeau." Shoot me now.
  17. Any commercial in which any form or tense of the words "craft" or "crafted" are used. Jesus, enough of this patronizing hipster shit.
  18. Well done, Horns. Very hard to believe this defense played in five losses. Texas players appeared bigger, stronger, faster and badfer assed across the board. Utes reminded me of Bama in Sugar Bowl vs Utes several years back. Whupped, I say! Whupped up and down the got damned field.
  19. The voice activates my Lunatic Dreyfus eye twitch but what she has to say is usually not bad(i) at low volume (ii) in a halfway decent game (iii) not involving Alabama. Agree with earlier poster who disliked Mowins's color analyst in UK/VT game, Rocky Something Loud Yakker. Constant facetime of Bud Foster was sad in that his swansong defense never found a way to stop the Ky's Tom Matte QB offense. The game was interesting and Beth's patter never offended enough to make me switch to natgeo Wild Japan episode of juvenile macaques riding sika deer like little jockeys.
  20. If you don't get a lump in your throat when the pretty blonde (hooker?) at the bar sings out "Aux arms, citoyens!" you ain't human. Rock on Victor; your line is my favorite in any film, ever.
  21. Play it! Play "La Marseillaise!"
  22. Trevor Lawrence's hair will get tangled up with Chase Young's hair and the players will be rushed under the medical tent until ESPN can run eight car insurance and wireless provider commercials. Dabo's and Ryan Day's heads will implode like little black holes. The ghosts of Frank Howard and Woody Hayes will duel with down marker poles at midfield to decide the game. I'm saying give the points and bet the Bucks. Reckon Nick Saban will be on the field set pregame and halftime to toss stink bombs with the ESPN guys? A grand time will be had by all.
  23. Deja vu anal prolapse karma. Major back in Tuscaloosa in time to infect/affect all sorts of shit by the time the Horns home and home series kicks off in a couple of years. May the good Lord have mercy upon us all.
  24. Gary Danielson, the reason for the mute button. And, CBS interrupts live action for more worthless shit than any other network. Good riddance, sucks to have to endure three more years.
  25. I stand corrected about Don Maynard. Not sure if you watched the same game I did but I know what I saw, even if I was only 14 and even if it was on TV. The near side linesman clearly signaled touchdown and did so without hesitation. Another player who was on the field for that play backs it up: https://rolltide.com/news/2004/9/7/Welcome_Back_Bama_s_1964_National_Champs_Return_for_a_Reunion.aspx Tommy Nobis even acknowledged that the call could have gone ether way (see youtube below), but I do not dispute that the score will and should forever stand Texas 21, Alabama 17, world without end, amen. A hard fought and well-deserved win, Longhorns. You might enjoy seeing how Darrell Royal shows the very short distance the ball was stopped from the goal line in this grainy youtube. As much as it still hurts, I had to smile. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ylofPt_dpxc
