  1. Agreed. I'd love to compare the charitable offerings of Dolly vs Babwa. I wouldn't be surprised if Dolly was 1000x more charitable.
  2. We were amused for the entire movie. It was absolutely ridiculous in the most enjoyable way.
  3. Yes on Marisa Tormei. Especially, as Rob said, as Aunt Meg. That said: Avatar way of the water Visually very captivating though I thought they did a better job with the first one. The plot and storyline were absolutely ridiculous. The military personnel were way to over the top and the ending was completely unsatisfying. It felt like a lot of scenes existed just to showcase what they could do with computer animation. The bright spots: Zoe Saldano is one heck of an actress. She really knows how to convey emotion even through cgi. Sigourney Weaver is still as pretty as a picture and her portraying her own daughter was a lot of fun. Overall 2 out of four stars. Boring movie overall which was about an hour too long.
  4. I always liked the music but was hooked once I saw his live show. It’s phenomenal.
  5. Video killed the radio star! As an aside, I was listening to Ronstadt the other day and reminisced on just how drop dead gorgeous she was back in the day. She had the benefit of extreme talent and magazine-cover-good-looks.
  6. I don't disagree with any of this. I will say it's a standard in the music industry. Would Alice Cooper, Kiss, Marilyn Manson, Motley Crue, Wasp etc etc be as famous as they became without their schtick? I'm not saying it's right nor am I arguing against your opinion, it just is what it is.
  7. If your interest is in old architecture mixed with a little drama, here's one for you. Tasty Nut Shop - White Pigeon, MI - Delicious Homemade Candies Apparently, the city manager and the owner of the building had a little tift at the person's personal residence and the ongoing theory is that the city manager, who has been reported to be spiteful and vengeful, decided to condemn the over 100-year-old building. Hilarity has ensued. The owner has since passed and there is a 501c that owns the building in an attempt to raise funds to restore it. Officials: Tasty Nut Shop building should be razed (aol.com)
  8. What a marvelous waste of time!
  9. I agree with all of the above with the exception of her singing. I think she possesses a wonderful voice. Marketing or not, all the things she does to obtain success require a great deal of work and dedication. She didn't obtain her fame from laziness and that is for sure.
  10. There was a time when I was absolutely burnt out on the Stones and didn't listen to them for years. It's amazing how talented they all are. Richards is such a lazy player but gets such a huge sound. It's a head scratcher how much space he fills with so little.
  11. As the resident Kiss fan here, I have to say I completely understand your opinion. They did a lot of damage to the credibility of the music with their marketing of toys etc. That said, the early early stuff is very progressive and riff driven. They were hungry and wrote some great rock songs. Then, when commercial success started to occur, we have the Kiss that you describe. If you listen to these songs with earbuds on and without the preconceived notion of four adults in clown makeup, maybe you'll change your mind.
  12. I tried several times with Radiohead. I wanted to like them. I wanted to love them. I just didn't get it. For me it's Waylon Jennings. Old school country people rave about him but it just escapes me.
  13. Do your homework:
  14. What did you think of the ending?
  15. Spoiler alert: I thought that when all the money disappeared that they were scamming her. I was surprised that it wasn't a scam but that the cousin actually took it all.
  16. The hindsight that at the time it was touted as the be all end all of COVID. Plenty of talking heads and political leaders said this would kill it in its place. We know now that is simply not true. I’m in the camp that says I wouldn’t have gotten it had I known now of how limited it is. I would fully advice the elderly (Sue) 😄 to continue getting it but for myself with very little in the way of risk factors, I’d pass and will pass again going forward. If I die an ironic death, you are more than welcome to laugh about it. 😎
  17. Emily the Criminal. When I saw the trailer I knew I recognized the actress and had that “ah ha” moment when it was Aubrey Plaza. I really enjoyed it. I enjoyed her “I’m gonna make this work and I’m not going to get stepped on” attitude and it took some turns which really kept my attention Not a great movie but definitely entertaining.
  18. Purely out of curiosity and not to start a war but I am wondering how many people, with the benefit of hindsight, would have still gotten the vaccine.
  19. Been on a Walsh rabbit hole this morning.
  20. Little Johnny got a job at the pickle factory and he loved that job. One day he told his mom that he was struggling because he wanted to put his penis in the pickle slicer. His mom sternly warned him to not do that. Little Johnny thought about it for days and finally decided to put his penis in the pickle slicer. He was fired and so was she.
