RIP, Ken.... :-(

I love the show, but I can't honestly say that any of the characters' personalities apply to me. I know a lot of Sheldons, Howards, etc., though.

(grumbling under breath) Dos felt mir noch...

A very close friend described me in this way because I've survived things that are horribly heavy-duty.

:D

...unlike "[that] sorry-ass cat, named Steve Miller."

Oh, dear.

LA truths: Kim's posterior is, indeed, padded...within and without. You must trust me on this. :)

Mr. Hedgehog used to eat at the first (and last, thankfully) restaurant at which I...

MTA cleaned it up as fast as it went up! :lol There were especially lots of LLDOB references (moecurlythanu will like that. :D).

The last bit I remember before I moved to Western Massachusetts in...

I love it, but with some misgivings...I hope that this isn't a tight view of a tank in which the dolphins are held, rather than filmed from a boat in their natural habitat.

The rapport between...

This. I was one of the NYC Genesis fans; every word is true.

Astoria/Long Island City/Woodside/Jackson Heights were massive Genesis enclaves back then; you'd see Genesis lyrics written all over...

"The prettiest girl/I ever saw/Was sipping Hoffman's/Through a straw..."

Yeah! My mother listened to Rambling With Gambling when I was a kid, too! Listening to WOR each weeknight, late, was a big part of my childhood; I also remember hearing Ed and Pegeen Fitzgerald,...

I am so glad to hear this! Yay!!!! :D :D :D

If they go East (i.e., 'home'), I cannot miss those shows!

Too much Trader Joe's three-layer hummus. I know. I've been there. ;)

Seriously---great review, dollface! I wish I had been there to see my old man do his thing. I'll be at the upcoming show,...

LOL...right on. I loved Yoo-Hoo!

Now, what was Joe Franklin's (of WOR-AM radio) favorite drink?

(I used to listen to this station as a kid because I loved Jean Shepherd)

Not just *any* old syrup in dem egg creams (quoth the Erudite Brooklynite)....but DIS stuff:

My brother used to visit all the time and he loved it. Have fun! I used to collect shells, and when I did, I always dreamed of going there.

I remember that Astoria, JH, LIC, and Woodside were absolutely crawling with Yes and Genesis fans.



Nice. I'd give almost anything to move back home.

I'm so gutted that I can't attend. I'm a bad band wife.

::::cries::::

Sun Luck! Sun Luck, OMG, Sun Luck!

You're not. When you originally posted about 'em, I responded. :D I loved Legos...but as Trane says, I didn't like the themed sets that came out when I was older.

Oh, no! The beautiful old dome is gone?! ::::cries:::: What a shame!

Oh, Vic...I'm so sorry, sweetie. Lotsa love to you. {{{{}}}}

There was nothing worse than this, except stepping on a Spirograph pin.

:lol Great story.

Both, depending on my mood and the mood/character of my opponent. :D

I never heard of 'Generals'. How did I miss that one? I musta been under a rock or something! I did find a Stratego app a...

Absolutely!

The whale! :D I'll never forget that.

I loved Laserium...boy, do I miss home. *sigh*

LMAO! I remember Hermione Gingold! What a great story. :D



Yes. I knew of kids who died. I was one of the dumb fucks. :lol For me, it was all about playing with the big boys.


...

Yes. If you're interested, this saved my life; it requires great commitment, but the payoff is so worth it. My HbA1c was 15, and now it is 5.5 and has stayed there for the last 2 years...and the...

I was a very busy kid...and, on the whole, a tomboy who utterly hated dolls and saw absolutely no sense in playing with them. :lol

Writing
Reading
Music (performance and listening)
Dance...

He who denied it supplied it.

Hahahahaa....I adore this.

(I'm secretly in love with Howard Moon, anyway....wait....now it's no longer a secret. Shit.)

Re: the 'dressing a certain way', ever since Prince went JW he's changed quite a bit. When Matt and I saw him a couple of years back, costuming and setlist were toned right the hell down, which blew...

:D You're welcome!

Whoops...just can't help it....

Candy's okay, but...

...here's my best girlfriend and maid-of-honor when I married CybrKhatru all them years ago. Sorry the sound isn't great, but...any red-blooded hetero guys and bi chicks...

It doesn't get too much better than Find The River...

Whoops!

Oh, man, this.

I nevuh hoida it! Right by MSG, too; it would have been great to go there after concerts I probably never saw it because the place might not have existed until after I moved away from NYC. It must...

I'll be damned--Grant Geissman told me about you guys awhile back (he and his wife and daughter are family friends). I just added myself to your mailing list; can't wait to see your 2013 schedule!

Gotcha. I like CT; I was in Western Massachusetts for years after I left home--kinda went native there.

I'm sure many people remember this one:

Bill Withers - +'Justments

This is a great account of your experience with the genre!

I was raised in a jazz/big band/classical household, but I was classically trained (concert grand harp and piano). When I was a kid, I...

First of all, dollface, you're in my thoughts and I hope that whatever is going on in your digestive system is only simple inconvenience and nothing worse than that! {{{{}}}}



LOL! Thank you...

Bald men and men with receding hairlines are all beautiful, and I love them.

I also love long hair on men and have a soft spot for CybrKhatru's very-early-90s mullet, which he no longer has. ...

Absolutely! And I sho don't have it. Here's a shot from a couple of years ago; my hair was starting to grow out but was still bleached platinum into oblivion. This was not at all a good style for...

Yeah! Are you from NY, too?



:lol I miss that "Waddya want?" action---Los Angeles just doesn't have it in the deli/restaurants out here.

And I miss real half-sour pickles...and real...

Oh, yeah! You would have not been able to drag me away from watching and listening throughout those four days; the lineup was killer.

:up Nothing at all to scoff at; Bix was no slouch! Great stuff.

I absolutely love Fainting in Coils and The Sahara of Snow 1 and 2---they've been on my running/workout playlists for decades.

It's lovely! My favorite is "Teiko".



:cool :::immediately starts kowtowing::: I'm not worthy! I'm not worthy!!! :cool



:lol I believe it...which is why although I've met Pat (and...

Thank you, thank you! Try the ve---wait; don't! ;)



:lol I so love this.

Three of the best in all genres, IMHO.



Indeed! :up :cool

Thomas Tallis...Palestrina...

AAaAAaaAaaAaaAaAAaaaaaagggghhhhh...get out of my head! :lol

I'll add pre-60s Ellington, Miles' First Great Quintet/Sextet, Trane's pre-Impulse years, early Monk, and...and...yeah. :D
