I could probably survive without ever hearing Hotel California again. Every crappy rock station in America must play it at least once a week every hour.

FIFY. Classic rock stations are mind numbingly repetitive but I'm too cheap to spring for Sirius. Some of those are pretty repetitive too.

We had Sirius for about a year. Mrs. George listens ONLY to oldies and classic rock, and we found the selection limited and repetitive. Finally I made a playlist with the music she likes and put it all on an SD card that’s plugged into the car.

Sirius’s selection of classical stations (both of them) sucked too.

Cute.

I liked this quote:
"......gave the penguins a sense of purpose and added enrichment to their days."

I wish I were so easily entertained, but then again, I just spent time watching penguin videos here so....... 55555555

FIFY

When I was young I had already sniffed out that our economy was based to a substantial degree on young healthy people working their whole young&healthy lives, to keep older sicker people alive as long as possible. I didn't resent it as much as observed it. I think these sorts of things might have swayed me towards resentment though.

Thought Rush had the best line.

It wasn't a hearing, it was a Twitter feed.

heir specialty drinks are okay for what they are, but now you're talking about coffee-flavored sugarwater, not coffee.

LOL That is me! 😂

Sure hurts the ability to lip-read them saying "vacuum!" over and over!

If you walk them backwards it says Paul is dead..

4 million kids graduated in may. Most of them don’t have a lot to do and not a rosy future. Heck if I were in fuck it mode I might be throwing rocks and burning stuff.

Reconciling the flight from the city and wealthy liberals plight is a topic which must be tackled by the NYT if it is to remain relevant. I see it as a no choice article.

Agreed. For How Green Was My Valley and The Quiet Man.

Correct.

Since we are on the subject of Maureen...What movie did John Ford have to make, in order to get Maureen and John Wayne for The Quiet Man?

That was really excellent. Thanks!

Good cuz it’s getting shaggy.

He can't stand a liar, yet he's willing to help Biden get elected. Tell me in what universe that makes a bit of sense in.

Bwahahahahahaaaaaaaaa

Dang. I forgot.

As a matter of fact, I have. If you bought a Sony TV between 1992 and 1994, there's a 7% chance that your circuit board came through my station. I also did some general labor in a machine shop for a while, and grew up in a family where every member of my family worked for Corning Glassworks in Charleroi. One of my uncles was one of the plant managers and another uncle was president of the union There were some interesting holiday discussions...

Nice!
When you did you realize that "TV manufacturing" would leave the USA?
When did your family who worked for Corning Glassworks realize that Corning would divest all consumer product lines?

We invested in one of these

Trust me - if you make the coffee out of sight of your guests and make a load of disgusting noises while you're doing it, nobody will be any the bloody wiser.

If they do complain, tell them they should have had the freaking pretentious green tea like you originally offered.

You guys need to quit mocking LD’s lived experience.

And don’t say that LD was sideways. Maybe you were sideways.

Don’t be ah, orientist.
