  1. In America, the laxatives used to come with a vessel with which to consume them! And a towel to clean up the mess in case they did their job just a little too well. Nowadays, people just shit themselves and blame somebody else.
  2. The old Mel & Tim song?
  3. I imagine that some of those cookies are necessary in order to insure payment. Is there anything worse than simple tracking cookies going on?
  4. My only concern is picking up cookies and stuff that I'd rather not have. Is this unfounded?

  7. I'm also a fan, in theory, of ex-players taking a stake in actual ownership. No guarantee that they won't/haven't already turned into Rich Oblivious Pig Fucks, but unless/until they do, it's never a bad thing in any business for there to be at least one voice in ownership who really knows how the product itself actually works.
  8. Laxatives?
  9. I don't know if Real Books count as home improvement or not...
  10. I keep getting ads for the new Real Book and for dating Asian chicks. Seriously. Much love for both concepts, but practical use for neither.
  11. Sorry, haven't been paying attention to much lately. Send me a link, please, and I'm in!
  12. I didn't take any anesthesia. I had to get to work after the procedure, and they advised me that such a thing would not be possible with anesthesia. So... Hey, I'm 56, been married for 28 years, raised two kids, etc. I'm accustomed to short-term discomfort in the service of long-term good...just another day in paradise, this one was. Besides, i had the whole thing on a tV right in front of me. I'm used to TV as an anesthetic. Most Americans are.
  13. Milk? Not out of my ass!
  14. Be that as it may, he lived in Jefferson, Tx until he became an adolescent. I know where Jefferson, Tx is. It's a little less than three hours away from where I live now, a short hop. I have family who live there, and have had breakfast there in the morning and d then lunch at home. One does not now, nor probably ever did, live in Jefferson, Tx for that long, especially as a child/pre-adolescent and not have it make an "impression" that doesn't go away., no matter what. Trust me on this one.
  15. I had a colonoscopy this morning. Nothing more at my bottom for now, please.
  16. "Western" and "Southern" and "Southwestern" are three things that too easily get lumped together by those who don't/won't know any better. It's...complicated, to put it mildly. I'll refer to you to this quote from Vernon Dalhart, as found in Wikipedia: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vernon_Dalhart Lots to think about there...lots.

  18. Move to Texas. The last leaves didn't fall off the trees until December 23. Of course, if you AC goes out in the summer, you're totally fucked (and nasty sweaty), so maybe better the devil you know, etc.
  19. Yes, have their stuff, too. 1939 but unable to find out anything about history to that point. Very jazzy and swinging! I was really struck by how flowing a lot of their stuff was time-wise. Seemed a bit unusual for the genre at that time, which has me wondering if they should be considered real "western swing", or maybe "country jazz" instead... But in the end, who cares, right?
  20. Recently had a buddy hip me to the Swift Jewel Cowboys, who recorded this in 1939, past anybody's "start date", but who I think had a much clearer sense of what the "swing" part of Western Swing meant than most before, and maybe after.

  22. It's my understanding that Joe didn't make it out of the rehearsal stage w/BS&T.
  23. This talk about the Eckstine band...how about the Earl Hines band w/Bird & Sarah Vaughn? Everybody, even the most experty experts, says no recording exist. Period.
  24. The album with Thad received an American issue in the late 70s. I picked it up then and have enjoyed it several times since.
