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

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!

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
