    BOO! The "What Scared You Today?" Thread

    If it's Belgium it must've been a Tuesday. :)

    BOO! The "What Scared You Today?" Thread

    This is actually an anniversry, ten years ago, the first time I saw someone with a bluetooth. Actually, the lady's long hair covered her ears, so I couldn't see this new technological marvel. She came into my store, and from the conversation she was having, you would've thought she was a...

    When you need to rant...

    If anyone does decide to go outside, watch out for the bugs!

    When you need to rant...

    Maybe we need to turn off the tv for a while and go out and get some fresh air. (But you didn't hear that from me!)

    RIP Richie Havens (1941-2013)

    Another 60's icon gone. Richie was a fixture on the Greenwich Village folk music scene for almost 50 years. He opened up a little concert in 1969 called Woodstock, and even showed up on Sesame Street to sing "Wonder Child". Deeply soulful, spiritual man. I was lucky enough to meet him some years...

    Happy Birthday, Fuzzygobo!!

    Thanks everyone. It was a cool day, and I'm living proof you can't help getting older, but you don't have to get old.

    The Alvin Show

    Checked it out on YT. Thanks for posting "Fancy". Haven't seen that one in ages.

    RIP Storm Thorgerson (1944-2013)

    And in the early days of MTV, he directed a few videos, including Yes' "Owner of a Lonely Heart".

    RIP Storm Thorgerson (1944-2013)

    He probably won't be a recognizable name to many of you, but he was a super graphic designer who specialized in one field: album covers. Back in ancient times, before CDs and iTunes, we used to listen to music on these big vinyl discs called LP's. And they were housed in cardboard sleeves...

    Let's invest in a bug zapper and let the show start!

    When you need to rant...

    Years ago, we had a swarm of gypsy moth caterpillars which killed two of our trees- nasty little beasts!

    Questions about anything

    Of course, if the lady has a unibrow, it's a big improvement.

    Questions about anything

    How is it that many women tend to shave or pluck their eyebrows, and then take a pencil and draw them back on? That's like a clean-shaven guy taking a Sharpie to paint on a mustache.

    PBS shows

    Xerus, remember way back in the beginning? Before PBS, there was NET, and the only two shows in their line-up were the first season of Sesame Street and Mr. Rogers? And THAT was IT!! In my childhood I was a PBS junkie, with SS, Mr. Rogers, Electric Company, Zoom, learned Spanish through...

    Pixar: Are the glory days over?

    I remember "A Bug's Life" competing at the box office with DreamWorks "Antz". Both were decent. One hysterical by-product of these two films: a few months later there was a dollar-store knock-off called "An Ant's Life". Never saw it, but I bet the cast of Mystery Science Theatre 3000 would've...

    Which Is Scarier?

    Bees are so beneficial to nature, but still hurts getting stung by them. Wasps, however, hurt more when they sting (one summer, a friend and I were walking through the woods, stepped on some branches, and there was a wasp nest underneath. A swarm got me with about twenty stings on the inside of...

    Pixar: Are the glory days over?

    As much as I enjoy many of their features, I love the little niche they carved for themselves with their shorts. Animated short subjects were such an incredible art form from the 30's through the 60's, it's too bad their studios' bottom lines had them phased out. You can tell quite an amazing...

    Comedian Jonathan Winters dies at 87

    Robin Williams idolized him so much, he brought him on for the last season or two of Mork and Mindy. If you ever have three or four hours to kill, check him out in StanleyKramer's "It's a Mad Mad Mad Mad Mad World". Just about every comedian in Hollywood appeared in it.
