  1. Is the choice only between overhyping and underhyping?
  2. Yeah, but to see a broken bat hit in super-slo is incredibly cool for right now. I'm not tired of it just yet.
  3. So....the population density - and all the comes from that - that springs up from and extends out from NYC does give this potential natural disaster potentially national/international consequences, and it is stupid and dumb to point that out? Like it would be getting - or justifying - the same amount of coverage if it was heading towards a sparsely populated area of the Mexican coastline? And there's no difference between sane, sensible, and sober ongoing coverage of a meteorological event of potentially significant impact and OHMYGODWE'REALLGOINGTODIEBWWWAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!! ? This is all Merle Haggard's fault. All of it. ? People done lost their minds, I swear they have. Now, let's just keep an eye on those ballot boxes, ok? Just because.
  4. You can find the two 12/21/47 Metronome All Star cuts on Capitol Jazz Classics Vol. 6 - All-Star Sessions. I have it as Capitol M-11031. No idea what the original Dutch cataolg number would be, What are the titles left off of Strictly Bebop, and are they any less dire than the ones that were included? Just wondering it they're on the upper or lower "You Stole My Wife, You Horse Thief" side of the bar...
  5. There was a lot of that (a lot) circulating after Katrina, the storm being man-controlled. Definitely some "eyebrow raising" evidence was presented, but nothing really "convincing", at least not to my mind. But about the election - if there is chaos to be exploited in terms of ballot-placing, counting, etc., it will definitely be exploited. Count on that, just as sure you could count on a massive land grab after Katrina. An yeah, smart people plan on finding openings. the nature of the openings makes no difference, and a natural disaster is as good an opening as any. If there's mischief to be made, you can bet that the makers are already in place waiting to for their cue. It may come or it may not, but they're there.
  6. It's because the sound is fatter.
  7. Are we talking about hearing him or hearing him?
  8. And the way that it always is! (except when it's not...)
  9. Detroit's gone and gotten psyched out. You get psyched out about good-great pitching like the Giants got right now, you might as well not even bother playing.
  10. I think the man has music confused with the music business. Common enough error, that one.
  11. You might be. I'd for sure have other options. Always have, among them Merle Haggard. Which ain't exactly Tommy Tune.
  12. Never have seen/heard her, but I've always enjoyed her writing very much, including the book which is the subject of this thread. And for an absolutely outstanding collection of her absolutely outstanding photographs, look for this one here: Very, very very nice stuff.
  13. Skip Martin Skitch Henderson Skotch Davis
  14. That's like when you do something that demonstrates basic competency at life and somebody will say (usually with their eyebrows raised), "AWESOME!!!" I mean, fuck that, right?
  15. He seemed to be enjoying it. Can't see any reason not to.
  16. Oddly enough, a guy on America's Test Kitchen was just now cutting up a turkey with a chain saw.
  17. Oh. "Spanish". Now I get it. If that's all you hear, then hey...I'm glad I don't have you ears. Or whatever it is.
  18. Buckner with tubas? Not sure it ever really happened. None here.
  19. An ability to shut out irrelevant bullshit.
  20. It takes knowing, that's what it takes. If the bass player knows, everybody goes.
  21. People who always raise their eyebrows while talking. No matter what they're saying, it's a con eventually.
