Re: Worthy of mention, too obscure for own thread
Jimmy Johnson. No, not that Jimmy Johnson. Not the other one either. The one that played for the 49ers in the 60s. His career was derailed by a blindside crack back block that blew out his knee. Was said to be the best cornerback in the NFL before the injury. Was said to be the reason they made cra...

Re: Movies
Can’t believe they are still making Planet of the Apes movies. Charlton Heston starred as a strapping bare-chested astronaut in the first one, and if he was still alive, he’d be (literally) 100 years old.

Re: Old Timey Music for Howard and DC
So, I have always liked Bob Seger's Get out of Denver. I also have always liked Welshman Dave Edmunds. This may not be as good as Bob Seger's Live Bullet version, but it’s still fun to listen to and it’s an excellent video.

Last time we discussed DJT stock, it was in free fall. It went down from the $70 range to the low 20s. But, for no good or apparent reason, it has taken on helium again. Up to $54 at today's close.

The part I particularly hated was the buffet breakfast. Loads of assholes whose main goal on the cruise was to get at their bacon and pineapple before anybody else. Then, gawd help any kids or old ladies who get in their way, walking from the buffet to the tables. Fuck those people.

Bronto, I’m not sure what point you’re trying to make. As Shirley noted, you’re paying significantly more for DirecTV than he pays for YouTubeTV, for pretty much the same programming.
