    No, I wish I was that cool, but I never had a music blog. Not sure who that would be.

    did... @TankedBevo have a blog about Dallas music?

    Found it, it was The Analog Kid, great blog, don’t think he migrated over here, too bad.

    Thx,  maybe somebody here will remember, I think he had a Neil Diamond cover band too, can’t get cooler than that.

    DougO, are you the guy from Dallas that used to have a music blog and posted these albums years ago?  May have you mixed up with someone else, was back on the Shag, great blog, got a lot of cool stuff off of there...

  4. Jesse is waiting outside while Emilio talks to Saul, as Kim is leaving Francesca calls him in, he's the "I ain't got no papers" guy.  That's the reason Jesse is there, he came with Emilio but is just hanging out.

    ETA:  to the timeline point, yeah consensus seems to be that this (Kim signing the divorce papers) is later in 2004, so still a few years away from BB.

    All I could think about when they showed that was the Mesa Verde commercials Saul made in season 5.

    ”I went to the bank to open my safety deposit box and this man was standing there with his pants down. Bare genitals!”

    “YUP!”

    I predict we're all fucking wrong on the finale.

    For sure.  I'll even back-track on my thoughts before, I think we will see the scene of Kim reciting her law oath, but I think it will be a flashback, whether she's sitting in a jail cell or just back to her boring Florida life, but thinking about how promising her whole life seemed in that moment.  But yeah, whatever scenarios we can dream up, that writing team will top them.

    Not sure which one they did. This might fall into next year, which would be nice. She deserves 2 Emmys.

    That's one reason they split the season up.  So they could submit the first half for this year, and the 2nd half for next year.

  8. We still haven't seen the resolution of the teaser below (the audio portion), I think (Florida being Florida), Kim goes back and becomes a lawyer again.  Nothing to do with Gene, just moving on with her life.  Going back to the interview with Rich Schweigert, when she didn't want to end up working at the Piggly Wiggly, and he asked what she did want, and she answered, "More".  Right now she essentially is working at the Piggly Wiggly, and this her chance to reclaim her life.  

     

  9. Never read the book, but the movie started me on a Tom Clancy kick, from Red Storm Rising (1986) through Debt of Honor (1994).  Just realized that coincided with our son (2nd child) being born, and that pretty much ended any free time I had for reading...

    Was he?  I heard Danny but must have missed the additional reference.

    Sorry, it wasn't explicitly laid out, but Thomas Schnauz did say in an interview that they were the same person, so an implied easter egg I guess.

    And I’m glad you connected Danny to Daniel Wormald. It was always a dream of mine to bring back Mark Proksch as Danny, to be the Danny for [Saul’s] laser tag business [Lazer Base]. So this was just my way of hinting at something. The reason I named him Daniel way back when was because I was hoping that some plot would unfold, allowing us to bring him back as the Danny of the laser tag [business], but it just didn’t work out. So this is my nod to that. It does exist in the world; we just didn’t get to see it.

  12. A little easter egg - in Breaking Bad, when Saul was pitching the laser tag place as a possible money laundering front and also as a place to start making meth again, he mentions the owner "Danny".  As revealed last night, "Danny" was Daniel Wormald, aka the Squat Cobbler.

    now put some brisket in the chili and we might be on to something. 

    Went to one of the Tex-mex places here in Taylor and they had a new item, cheese enchiladas topped with carne guisada, it did not suck.  No pics, will do better next time.

  14. Something that I just thought about  - since Kim and Jimmy were married, even though it was years ago, and Francesca mentioned hearing clicks on her phone, I wonder if the feds are watching Kim and have her phones tapped as well?  Maybe Jimmy hears the tell tale clicks, freaks out and hangs up?  Probably not though, would not explain the wild gesticulations he was doing prior to smashing the phone.  I will throw it out as a possibility however; the feds trace the call to Omaha, put out a dragnet, somehow catch Saul, and Kim comes in at the end to represent him.  They show those cops approaching a house in the end teaser, but they could be approaching Gene's house, no the cancer guy.  Misdirection.  Also, I have a feeling Marion getting exposed to Youtube is going to lead to her somehow stumbling across something about Saul/Gene...

    I think if it was Kim, he would have just dropped the phone at his side, and stared forlorn out the phone booth for awhile before just shuffling away with the phone dangling.

    Thomas Schanuz in an interview with Entertainment Weekly said we will hear exactly what that conversation was...

    Quote

    Revelation: Kim is alive and checked on Jimmy! The fans won't riot. Though the last time we saw her, she had destroyed her life, and as the writers have suggested, a fate worse than death awaits. In the scene when he calls her, there was a problem with the shot. Noisy trucks kept going by when Gene was talking to her. Do you want to tell us exactly what was so upsetting about that call?

    [Laughs] Yeah, those trucks, we couldn't control them…. We will learn the details of the phone call; we will know what was said in a future episode. It's just right now we wanted to keep the mystery going of: What is going on in the world of Kim Wexler? You said she's alive, but I don't know. Is she alive? Can you tell from that phone call? He asked for Kim Wexler [laughs] on the end of that line and then heard something that made him slam the phone down and break the glass. So we'll find out in a future episode exactly what words were spoken.

    Jimmy is at his breaking point. Pulling cheap shenanigans at the mall and the the local bar to gain a few bucks 

    The money doesn't matter at all.  Read several articles today including an interview with Thomas Schnauz, plain and simple Jimmy/Saul/Gene is an addict, and pulling scams is his drug.  He just can't NOT do it.  He has to get over on everybody, no matter what the cost.

  17. Upgraded to a new computer and am copying everything from my old one(s), ran across a video I downloaded years ago of the 1989 concert in Venice.  Great show, best parts screencapped below:

  18. I’m a child of the’70s-80’s, but did anyone actually watch Max Headroom?  I just remember the Coke commercials and the Art of Noise video.  I know there was a tv show, what the hell was it about? I guess I was busy chasing tail at the time…_

  19. Looks like yttv added a few channels including the Weather Channel.  Only way I found out was because KVUE was gone from my guide so I went to go investigate, not sure why but it was at the bottom of the channel list, you will have to go manually add it back to your grid.
