  1. I plead innocence. I'm not, but that's how I plead.
  2. Concrete. Cement is a constituent of concrete. I can't tell you how to pronounce it.
  3. I took my grandkids to see Little Shop of Horror off broadway a couple of weeks ago so the Feed Me Seymour comment made me smile. The woman who played Audrey was hot af and had a voice the match of Ellen Greene, and that's saying something IMHO. The next night we went to The Met and saw Madame Butterfly. Third time I've seen it and it still makes me all weepy, but hey, it's Butterfly. What cha' gonna do? You don't weep at Butterfly you got no heart, maybe no soul.
  4. Well, now I feel guilty about shaming you into yard work. If you got any energy left after dragging those hoses all over the yard I'd be interested in your thoughts on the machine and the zapping and all that.
  5. I know you got the cancer and the brain zapps and everything, but dang man, water your plants. Or throw them out. They may be past the watering stage.
  6. Is the vuvuzela really a musical instrument? I'd say it's just a noise maker.
  7. ...and on behalf of his father, Don Santiago Jimenez.
  8. What to hell does a symphony conductor do? I know he stands up front and waves a stick around, and makes SRV faces, supposedly to keep everybody in time. I'm thinking that if you're good enough on your instrument to qualify for a symphony orchestra aren't you good enough to stay in time? Seems like dead wood to me.
  9. Will this take care of the fight between the G and B string? If so it is a miracle. I had always heard it is because of the tempered scale of guitars vs other instruments. I should post on "I did not know that" thread. I'm going right now to get my SG and a file.
  10. Click on over to the "I caught the cancer" thread. Ask how hard it is to take care of a colostomy bag. Oh yeah, have the ball and chain go buy you some Tucks.
  11. Being a metronome is not a bad thing. Bands tend to speed up during songs and if a drummer can have them end at the same tempo that they started with, I would say that is a good drummer. Friend of mine used to say "Swallowed a clock". Charlie Watts was not a flashy drummer, but he kept the rest of the band on the same tempo. In some ways he "made" the Rolling Stones. Ringo, too. I like Frank Beard a lot. Some unique riffs that are integral to the song, more than just a straight ahead 4/4.
  12. Okay, fuck you prong horn! Now I'm obsessed with Babymetal.
  13. Please give your experiences and recommendations for locks, etc. for doors, double doors, French doors, gates, and windows. Not interested in alarm systems (already have one) and much prefer to not have to clean up the mess if I am forced to use my bedside table friend.
  14. Don't know why my link isn't working. Anyway, go look at Dick Dale's Showman.
  15. Both of these guys have only one year of eligibility remaining. No way they can learn Sark's system in only one year.
  16. Even when I was young and flexible. that "egg" would not have been my preferred sexual location.
  17. Does that fan dealie work? Looks interesting.
  18. I looked briefly and didn't see anything on this. I like metals just because I think they are fun. Fun to look at. Fun to hold. Just fun to have. My dad got me started, but his reason was "for when the commies take over". I think we all talk about the "security" that owning metals provides, but I never see how that would work. How do you envision using your metals? The girl at the checkout at HEB doesn't give a shit. Of course the HEB would have to actually be open. The gas station attendant, he won't fill my tank for gold or silver. Maybe you could find someone who would trade guns for metal, but you can't eat guns. Question is, and this is an honest question because I don't know and I would like the education. What will you try to do with metals...when the commies take over, or the Ruskies, or the Chinese, or the zombies?
  19. One good thing about a catheter. You can sit and drink beer all night and not have to get up to pee.
  20. The hit at 5:50 third quarter? We would have definitely gotten a late hit or roughing the quarterback called were teams reversed.
