  1. The type of music she sang was never my cup of tea but she was a great singer and of course beautiful. Loved her in Grease. The sound track from Grease and just her music in general were part of everybody's life growing up in the late 70s and early 80s***. ***Basically, you were going to hear her music everywhere. Get some rest, Sandy.
  2. Smell is the main memory invoker from what I have read. I had to have surgery on my right hand when I was in first grade as a result from an accident. Anyway, back during that time they used ether as the knock out agent. To this day(50 plus years later), when I smell ether, I go back to my first memory after waking up from surgery which is me sitting up on a gurney and getting wheeled back to my room after post op.
  3. I bought the 8track with that song on it. When I started moving to cassettes, that album did not survive the conversion.
  4. I remember 'Great White Line' and that is about it.
  5. I was looking at something on google and it didn't list their 1st four albums in a noticeable manner. I do recall those first 4 now. I think I even thought about buying them when I was buying their stuff but they(the other albums) didn't appeal to me. GI and PoE are peak Styx for me. Pieces of Eight and Queen's News of the World were the first rock albums I bought. I got an 8 track for Christmas with a gift certificate to a record store where I bought those two albums\8 tracks. Blue Collar Man was getting a lot of play at the time as well as We Will Rock you and We Are the Champions.
  6. Re: Styx - Grand Illusion and Pieces of Eight are good listens. Oddly enough my favorite cuts are with Tommy Shaw or James Young singing. I had their other two albums Equinox and Crystal Ball too. I gave Kilroy Was Here one listen and I was done with them. Made it to the '86 Jam with Van Hagar. Eddie Van Halen was phenomenal. Was at the 82 Jam: Journey Santana Sammy Hagar Joan Jett Point Blank It was late in the afternoon and I was feeling the heat from being on the floor. I was around the 50 yard line listening to Santana rocking the place. I decided to sit down for a bit. The bass and percussion were so intense I still remember roaches bouncing off the ground as I sat there. That was the Escape album tour for Journey. They put on quite the show as well. It may have been documented, but IMHO, this tour was the beginning of the end for Steve Perry or at least the Steve Perry that people remember most.
  7. I try not to skirt the rules. I have been trying to keep up with the restrictions but we had an expected death in the family and I am having to deal with estate stuff. So, I am still watering 2x's a week. I will adjust before my next watering time. Regard to watering as you mentioned in the second reply, that is pretty much what I decided on doing. I have a Rachio controller so this should be pretty easy to plan out.
  8. So do you gents pay attention to watering restrictions? I am about to cut down to 1 day. The city I live in wants to restrict watering from 8am-10am one day a week. I have a lawn service for grass, trees and shrubs. All of which look good still(front lawn with regard to grass). Looks like I am about to sacrifice most of the back yard to keep the front looking as good as possible.
  9. I have told this before... I grew up in and around Waco. These days, the circle is clearly marked. Yield to traffic in the circle. Of course there is still fuckery because people don't know what yield signs are nor turn signals. In my days there, there were no markings. It was pretty much the wild west every time you drove through it. I had the occasion to ask two different Waco police officers about who had the right of way in the circle. I got two different answers. (Yield to traffic in the circle v. traffic in circle yields to feeders)
  10. I - Has the edge on the story. Gritty, bloody, graphic and told in such a great manner. II - was shot better...Cinematography wise. So many shots that could be hung on the walls of museums. I have said it before, II has my favorite scene. Mama's funeral.
  11. "No thanks to you, shitface." That's some surly level shit right there. Already mentioned, but Thief is up there for one of my favorite movies he was in. Godfather at the top. Rip Sonny.

  13. King Kong... I guess. I saw this as a teenager when it came out. For some reason, I mostly remember Jessica Lange.
  14. Loved the call back to Plains, Trains and Automobiles... "Ballzzz". Maybe not really a call back, but PT&A was the first thing I thought of.
  15. Re: Leo... I re-watched 'What's Eating Gilbert Grape' recently. Impressive.
  16. Yeah, because you know this was just a spur of the moment by Arch and the Manning Corporation and they had no idea of who was already in the QB room.
  17. Fuck yes!
  18. Suck it, Pyle. Agree with sentiment above that OU should have gotten a regional . They have definitely peaked at the right time. Hope Ole Miss beats the pigs.
  19. You think they would be enjoying the food at the ball park instead.
  20. Somebody probably spotted them the T and the E.
  21. I am not convinced that the daughter is still alive at this point.
  22. Started watching this last night. We had recently watched 'Under the Banner of Heaven' on Hulu. F-FLDS.
  23. Much respect for Coach Pierce making this move at this time.
  24. Maybe I should start doing this for Pest Control companies and Solar Panel salespeople...
  25. I got hit up 3 times on 3 different occasions at a local gas station by JWs. WTF.
