  1. That's a very good one. I had the same impression. Few more: Recording Kathleen Turner for Burger King. Bet you didn't know she was the BK voice for a couple of years. Yeah, it was a phone-patch, big deal. Sultriest voice ever. Shared a seat next to Patrick Dempsey on flight to LA and didn't know what movies he was in, haha. Guessed wrong, twice, lol. Al Pacino getting interviewed next to us at Shutters on the Beach in Santa Monica. Our smokin' hot producer wanted to pay me $20 to go over and do my laughably horrible Michael Corleone impression. "Don't tell me about my business, Kate." Sanity prevailed and I didn't do it.
  2. I have had funny and weird celebrity encounters. I once took turns with my first daughter and a man and his son at a tire swing at the playground at 70th Street in Central Park on the East Side. We talked for around 30 minutes. He had a hat pulled low and sunglasses. After a while, he suggested our children share the swing at the same time. My daughter had stranger-danger and didn't want to, which hurt his feelings, cause his son was half-black and I think he thought that was the reason she said no. It wasn't. We had a very boring conversation, in which I blathered on about the upgrades to the playground. Finally, he and his son moved away. My wife walked over to me and said, "Hey, guess what? Robert Dinero is at the playground!" I looked over and of course, that was the man I had been hanging with, haha, without knowing who he was. I will say that I was really impressed with him, cause people would walk over to tell him how much they liked his movies and he would take their hand and look them in the eye, and tell them how much that meant to him. He was so cool.
  3. Franzia? @gofuckyourself I only drink Thunderbird.
  4. @Rimbo, I worked out next to Krist Novoselic at the Sunset Marquis in West Hollywood in '90's. Just saying.
  5. I like rock and roll and I don't particularly like Taylor Swift's music, but I respect what she does and Dave Grohl is giving embarrassing aging rock star vibes.
  6. Washed-up rocker embarrassing himself by taking non-factual shots at the world's biggest performer is lame.
  7. "The Eras Tour concerts were typically around 3 hours and 15 minutes long, featuring a setlist of 44-46 songs. Some shows even extended to 3 hours and 45 minutes. The tour spanned 149 shows across 51 cities in 21 countries between March 2023 and December 2024." I would like to see Dave Grohl try to drag his tired ass around stage for three hours.
  8. Last summer at his concert in Europe, he made a strange, random comment about Taylor Swift being fake and him being authentic. Grohl quipped that his band calls their tour the "Errors Tour" because they "actually play live," referencing Swift's Eras Tour. Aside from it being an uncalled-for comment at someone who is propping up the entire entertainment industry and providing plenty of $ for the cities lucky enough to host her concerts, his shitty concert was sparsely attended. Of course, the Swifties have been harassing him since. Following that, he got exposed for his personal life issues.
  9. Trashing Taylor Swift was such a bozo move by a washed-up rocker. Really embarrassing.
  10. I certainly don't know, nor do I claim to know. However, I'm impressed with two things: He is trying to project a very different image than the one he did last year. He was given a chance at a major program, when so many here (including me) said he was finished. A very wise chairman of a company I worked at once said something in a meeting that I really like: Everybody gets a lucky break. Only a few people are smart enough to take advantage of it."
  11. We've all failed somehow and all of us deserve another chance. So many of us here said Johntay was finished. Heck, I thought no legit school would touch him. I'm really impressed with how he is trying to signal that he has a changed attitude and I think regardless if he makes the league, by getting another chance, he has become a success story, of sorts.
  12. I will have a Jordan Washington update next week.
  13. A concrete opportunity. That sounds pretty solid.
  14. How can you say their QB situation is a mess? They assured themselves last year that they QB room was far superior to sip.
  15. There is a glorious update this week concerning the Sacred Signed Surly Horns Football which I will share soon. May the legend continue to grow.
  16. From our friends at TexAgs klgiese9 11:51a With all the injuries we had it is not fair to hold coach Earley for those things out of his control. He is obviously a players coach which in this day and time is important. Give the guy a chance.
  17. Someone call the police, cause we were robbed in Arlington last December.
  18. It’s definitely a mistake to move on from Earley. He is a player’s coach. Almost more like a best friend. Plus, he ‘gets’ Aggy. In other words, he understands what makes A&M culture so unique amongst colleges and so inspiring. He really needs at least four or five seasons to build from his recruits and best-friend culture. He really is an upgrade from Schloss and I hope he gets his chance to shine.
  19. I'd like to embrace Hailey Van Lilth.
  20. No, but apparently, people here greatly prefer my slop to your scintillating content.
