She is an American treasure. Absolutely love her.

Has anyone watched the Laurel Canyon film? It's been on one of the movie channels I get on Comcast (Epix??) recently and it's really interesting. The convergence of talent in that small area is amazing. Worth a watch if you're interested. https://www.vanityfair.com/culture/2015/02/laurel-canyon-musi...

Bingo.

Bonus question though, the third B was initially someone else. They weren't German, though. Who was it?

Bizet?
Not sure I'm familiar with his work but know the name.

OMG @The Rube that Ramones clip is AWESOME!

With one TV in the house and maybe four channels the only thing worse than little turds on the prairie was the

Donny and Marie Show.

I am working in my office while the rest of the family is home with nothing to do. My office is off the living room and my wife is apparently watching a Little House on the Prairie marathon ...... :shock: Send coffee. It is putting me to sleep. Oh man that is painful. You have my sympathies.

Heck, disc even has the ORIGINAL "Birth Of A Nation." BTW, horrible, don't even bother. I wanted to see it for a historical perspective, and shut it off after 30 minutes.

I don't use okra much, but I am told it adds thickness to sauces. It does and okra can also get slimy, epically in something like Gumbo, that may be leftover.

I made a pot of jambalaya for dinner last night. Andouille sausage, shrimp, red and green bell peppers, with sliced sourdough bread on the side! I somehow managed not to eat a second bowl.

Oh my! Sounds wonderful!

Never & agreed. Sometimes Twitter flips it back and I change it latest again.

It’s crazy what kids will do to you. The recession hits and suddenly that severance (for those fortunate to have one) is a nice thing to have on the back pocket. Moving up the ladder is nice but so is job security and safety blankets. Willing to relocate? Hmm that housing market in MN isn’t so bad....

I'm sure mine is a common one. "Blinded By The Light... wrapped up like a douche...". I've Googled the actual lyrics, and I still sounds like "wrapped up like a douche" to me.

I have always really disliked Manfred Mann's cover of Blinded By The Light.

Seems like just yesterday I was the young punk reminding the old dude celebrating a 'worked here a long dang time long time' milestone that I was not even 30 years old yet.

Given the constant chest thumping from fargo and grand forks I'm guessing it's usually a NW wind?
