  1. I really like their last album. Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk
  2. Boodles is our favorite. Clean and dry. Perfect for a Gibson. A Gin martini garnished with cocktail onions is not a Martini but a Gibson. Never understood the appeal of a “Dirty” Martini. Don’t fuck up my booze with a bunch of brine. Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk

    According to Anderson it was meant to satirize concept albums. He was apparently pissed that people called Aqualung a concept album and he considered it just a collection of songs. Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk
  7. Ifyou are that close to Slickrock you should do it.

    Concept Albums

    I don’t think anybody had a string of great concept albums that can compare to The Kinks: ‘68-Village Green Preservation Society 69- Arthur/The Decline and Fall of the British Empire 70-Lola vs. Powerman 71-Muswell Hillbillies Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk
  9. https://www.msn.com/en-us/news/politics/dan-rodimer-gop-congressional-candidate-pushes-back-on-claims-he-turned-up-twang-in-texas-run/ar-BB1f67uw Speaking to CNN on Monday, Rodimer admitted for the first time that the campaign did use a body double for parts of the bull ride segment of the ad. The ad never shows the rider's face, and the boots and vest appear slightly different than what Rodimer is wearing in the video. "I actually stayed on for 11 seconds and the only reason I was able to get off -- well, unfortunately my hand was stuck, so I couldn't get off sooner -- we didn't get the full filming of it, and, yeah, we had other people jump in to be body doubles," he said.

  12. One of my best high school buddies. Starting QB, married the head cheerleader etc. etc. Sweetest guy ever. He was a musician and worked part time at a used car lot to make extra bucks. Brutal and senseless. On Dec. 6, Smith and Ables left a local car lot in a black 2001 BMW. Following him in his mother’s Ford Taurus was Charlotte Nioche Davis, 18. In the back seat of the Taurus were her 12-year-old brother and Smith’s 2-year-old sister. “He had him traveling around under the guise he was going to show the car to somebody,” Haltom said of Smith’s actions shortly before he shot Ables in rural Arkansas. “He shot him in the head and then kicked him into a ditch. He was still moving around, so he shot him two more times.” Davis told police Smith motioned the 12-year-old to join him before Ables was shot, according to court documents. After shooting him once in the head, Smith kicked Ables’ body into a deep ditch and lost his shoe in the process, Haltom said. Smith sent the 12-year-old down the slope to recover his shoe. When Ables began to move slightly, Haltom says Smith shot him two more times. According to witnesses who told police Smith had confided in them about the killing, Smith told them Ables had told him he could take the car and that he didn’t have to shoot him with the chrome colored .357 magnum he carried. “It’s a Beamer,” was the response Smith told others he gave to Ables seconds before ending the man’s life. Davis pleaded guilty to being an accomplice to murder on Oct. 3. In exchange for her testimony in Smith’s trial Haltom agreed to recommend a sentence of 20 years. She will appear Monday morning before Griffin to be formally sentenced. Smith was not eligible to receive the death penalty because he was just 17 when he shot Ables. Miller County Chief Prosecutor Brent Haltom told the Ables family that Smith’s right to appeal the conviction is heavily restricted because he chose to plead guilty. Pleading guilty to first degree rather than capital murder does not mean Smith has the opportunity for parole. “Life in prison and life without parole are exactly the same sentence in Arkansas,” Haltom said. The only way Smith will ever live as a free man again is if an Arkansas Governor commutes his sentence. Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk
  13. Bought a used one for fun a while back. Still enjoy the hell out of it. Such a joy to get out of the cocoon I’m usually driving. 2005 Mazdaspeed. 6 speed manual and factory turbo. Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk
  14. Would love to see a series based on this. Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk
  15. Tried to find out if the driver was charged but haven’t found anything. I’ve always thought the best way to commit murder and get away with it is to hit them with your vehicle. Sun was in my eyes swerved or stepped in front of me foot slipped of the brake etc. If you are very unlucky maybe involuntary manslaughter. Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk
  16. He had an 80 CM custom made Trek. It was stolen and recovered in 2011. Kinda hard not to see I would imagine. Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk

  19. I always spend some time in Salida. Maybe my favorite small CO town along with Crested Butte. Scenery is not as spectacular as Ouray/Telluride but it’s right on the Arkansas river. Laid back and not as touristy as most of the others. Last time I was there Pagosa Springs was pretty meh.
  20. Prefer above usually. Lettuce Tomatoes, preferably from East Texas Onions, preferably Red Dill pickles Mustard Cheese, preferably Cheddar Bacon(usually) NEVER! Mayo, ketchup or salad dressings Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk
  21. We celebrated the eight day anniversary of getting shot #2 of Pfizer by eating lunch indoors at a favorite restaurant. First time since this shit started. They are never busy at lunch and still require masks unless you are seated at your table. What a treat to have an almost normal dining experience. Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk

It plans to keep its COVID-19 protocols in place, which includes asking customers and employees to mask up.

  24. “He didn’t use the phrase for a song title until a year later, but Astral Weeks was the album on which Van Morrison fully descended “into the mystic.” Morrison’s first full-fledged solo album sounded like nothing else in the pop-music world of 1968: soft, reflective, hypnotic, haunted by the ghosts of old blues singers and ancient Celts and performed by a group of extraordinary jazz musicians, it sounds like the work of a singer and songwriter who is, as Morrison sings in the title track, “nothing but a stranger in this world.” Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk
  25. Yup. Several places I once frequented are already out of the rotation because they were lax about mask requirements. To me this means: )1 They don’t really care about their employees )2 They don’t really care about their customers Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk
