  1. Kinsey is just out here and I'm rather curious about seeing that. Usually love Liam Neesson in a good role.
  2. Royale with Cheese all 'round
  3. Monging up the thread right in front of me is annoying, so I deleted that shit. Anything else? Because this is the first thread that has been 'monged' up. NO kidding, and I owe you an apology anyway. Despite my efforts Che wrecked the thread more than mere smilies. I understand your tubes may have just been a little on the dilated side when you had to deal with the recent hoo-hah. So, two little Fonzies? B-)

  5. Well Hi. I'm not that sick that he's gone FWIW. He told me to "Get a life in one thread, to a perfectly innoccuous question. Then proceeded to answer my question in his next post. I mean, how many times can you respond to your own thread? I was finding myself avoiding any thread he'd started.
  6. Look tony, at least I saved on by quoting it, and now as I quote it again, you have it available twice! I suppose you should rather have posted then "Thank you for your post, I enjoyed reading it. Tony"-messages, instead of those evil things, you know? I can only think of one thing to say to that and that is :wink:
  7. Sorry if it's been done.
  8. No seriously, isn't that the sound of surprise or whatever someone famously coined it? How 'conventional' should an album be within the remit (right word?) of the opening track or two? I for one prefer an album to have a cohesive feel, and a flow whether that be along the dissonant or more melodic lines. But one of my favourite albums of all time is ESP by Miles which is a fairly straight ahead thing punctuated by the opening drum solo of 'Agitation' which is I guess, a bit on the free side. Then again, that is a solo performed on one instrument without the jarring experience of seemingly random blast of brass or reeds. I'll have to sit through a few more of my more 'progressive' stuff to get a better idea of what I should be saying. And yes, I'm on my xth Jennings Sneck Lifter.
  9. 'avant garde a clue.....
  10. Just wondering why the mod Use3D decided to delete some totally innoffensive and mildly humourous posts (3 I think)? Unless he thought they weren't innoffensive, in which case I'd like to know for what reason he thought this. It's obviously OK for some members to exchange and almost indefinately throughout threads, but one or two on my part and they get all and leave me a bit . Maybe it's a ploy to keep turnover of board members high.
  11. I hear keys jangling.....
  12. Hang on...if I had a 'buddy' I could go on for ever like this. Maybe inhabit entire threads.
  13. I'd better rack up some more then....
  14. Regardless of shirt colour, you might find that people will be looking at your medallion. I plan on getting one when I hit 50ish.
  15. 'Spring' is by far (IMO) a less complex, but no less interesting, album than it's sister disc. I feel it does flow better and Shorter's playing makes for beautiful listening alongside River's turbulent outbursts. Even the solo drum feature is worth listening too
  16. If I use my car it's 89 and a bit pence per litre. Which means it's approx £3.43 per US Gallon. About $6.45 per US Gallon On a run using between 15 and 18 to the gallon (depending on how much I use the squeeze/lift off/pops & bangs over-run ) this is scary expensive. In the family motor we can use the regular unleaded at 87p per litre which isn't a great saving.
  17. I'm not sure if I dreamt this, or read it here, but I believe the next batch of Euro RVGs won't have the CP. However, if they do, the quandry will persist; what with retail RVGs going for about £6-8 over here, do I just bite the bullet and get them anyway.
  18. Fuller's. Drank a lot of Fuller's at the Rose in South Ken -- their cask beer is very different -- not as malty -- I wish micro-brewers here would give real English style ale a go here (but they seldom go in that direction). Haven't tried the Pete's Red. I'll have to put it on my list. --eric 'London Pride' is the one. It has to be drunk within booting distance of the Fullers brewery in London though, to be sure that its from a fresh cask. The pub right next to 'Mole Jazz' does a damn good pint of it.. B-) Is that Chiswick? There are I think, some decent pubs which have live jazz too. BTW Tesco's have for a while now, been offering London Pride at £1.33 a bottle.
  19. Looks like you've come to the right place Sonnyboy Welcome from the UK. Your dad's music certainly does brighten up dreary ol' England.
  20. I have a Mac G4 and the RVG of JACKIE'S BAG and Larry Young's CONN, MOTHERSHIP cannot be read by my machine. The cd icon doesn't even appear on the desktop and therefore cannot play on my Mac at all. Yeah Cali, when I search 'My Computer' for the audio file in the E Drive, it's almost as if it doesn't exist. The only way to play it uses some media player I din't even know my laptop had. BTW. My friend got a gold over in the velodrome. Did you get chance to go?
  21. Wow. Missed this thread first time around. One of my favourite subjects too I haven't tasted Old Milwaukee, but I'll look out for it. We don't get chance to sample many US beers here (apart from the obvious) although there is one good vendor about 40 miles away who caters for the American servicemen at Menwith Hill early warning station. From him, I've managed to taste lots of Sam Adams and another brand who's name escapes me at the moment. Life does sound good down in Arizona Wes. Just how far is to the Mexico border for you? I do like the idea of heat/slow living. I think my wife would hate it. She does like seasonal weather. She's ready for a crisp, blowy autumn morning after only 4 months (at best) of warm, sunny weather..... I suppose we do have the Sam Smiths' brewery only 45 miles away though. Oh, and Theakstons/Black Sheep are less than 20. If it's dry tomorrow a pootle across with the top down might be in order . Cheers folks. EDIT: sorry Wes, you said it's an hour.
  22. Or cruising the streets looking for the odd Dodge Charger to chase.
  23. http://www.users.on.net/~alexanderino/cdex/ the current version of CDex looks a bit spiffier, but it is basically the same. someone mentioned that during installation he was prompted to pay for some LAME codec. Haven't found out the details behind that, but LAME is free, just like CDex so don't pay anything anywhere. I recommend you get the 3.90.3 LAME encoder. My computer is not allowing the LAME download to install files. I have turned off all my popup blocker settings
  24. Make it a good 'un
  25. As per usual, John comes up with the priceless techie low down Thanks all.
