  1. Dick Allen should be in. What a great player he was.
  2. I've always loved the Prestige years, particularly A Long Tall Drink. It just seems that his BN years have drawn more attention, maybe because it was at an earlier point of his career.
  3. Very cool Mike. Is there a link to make a contribution?
  4. Considering the debt the government has, I seriously doubt that. Moreover, that's not our financial model, not that various state and local governments don't give out tax breaks, etc. I think stores like Penny's are getting along, provided they do well during the Xmas season. It was mobbed yesterday on Black Friday.
  5. This is fantastic news. I have Burn Brigade, Dr. Chicago and a Ronnie Matthews recording and they are fantastic. I was always hoping that Beehive would come out in disc so I can't wait for this to come out. Thanks to all who made this possible, which I assume includes Mark.
  6. I had no idea it was that a bad place to work. I've often wondered how they stay in business as they seem to have few customers. However, they always seem to have everything you need.
  7. I received the corrected disk four years ago but never heard of the erratum. Didn't even know Savoy was still around. I just took a look at the site and it looks pretty moribund.
  8. Pretty good article. Thanks for posting.
  9. History favors the Royals. Recently, the team that is down 3-2 and has the last two games at home wins the WS.
  10. Baumgarner's performance last night was one of the best ones in recent memory. He's only 25. Could be one of the great ones! Let's hope the Giants finish it tomorrow but it will probably go seven.
  11. Thanks. Will keep an eye on the Elemental Music site. Thanks for the links! Boy, wish I could listen to this right now
  12. I work for the company that used to own Brachs. We sold it in 1986 as it no longer fit the profile; we wanted to focus on becoming a pharma company. Anyway, when we got ready to sell it, I headed out to Chicago, where the plant was located, to do due diligence. Every office had a bowl of candy, which people kept refilling. The plant had the sick sweet smell of candy being made. When we went down to the cafeteria near the manufacturing area, the smell was overpowering but you got used to it after a couple of days. For years, we could buy the candy in our company store at discount prices.
  13. The Brookmeyer is a great select.
  14. I was never a big fan in the 60s but now when I hear their stuff on the 60s station on XM, I realize how good they were. With age comes knowledge
  15. The team that doesn't know how to say no. Based on a stat they showed last night, they have a 67% chance of winning the WS. Amazing story.
  16. That is a heck of a story. Thanks for sharing it. Does anyone know how and where to order the set coming out in January?
  17. What's funny is that if someone reports them, their listings will be pulled. When you sell on eBay, you can't refuse to accept PayPal. eBay put this rule in place years ago, shortly after they bought Paypal. Wonder if this will change now that they're spinning off PayPal.
  18. Fear: A Novel of World War I by Gabriel Chevalier.
  19. The dress made of pasta reminds me of the ad currently on TV about bacon.
  20. We'll find out tonight if Cinderella turns back into a pumpkin or however the story goes
  21. The amount of information out there about ourselves is scary. Just google yourself and you'll be shocked by the results.
  22. I'm wondering what is the overall verdict. If the sound is crappy, I may want to cancel the order.
  23. I thought the allusion to classical music interesting. I don't pretend to be knowledgeable in classical music but don't many conductors play it note by note?
  24. You seem fixated on making fun of her with your photos of other women. It comes of as sexist, not to mention mean spirited. Sad.
