The Swamp

A couple of years ago, it was mentioned here about an old Mike Warren sports betting video from the early 1980s. This was a fantastic video.

Does anyone have a link to this?

I have never heard that song. Color me embarrassed.

Thanks Rerun.

Quite a change for an older person.

Déjà vu - the whole album - recorded off vinyl. Such a great album. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nBmeOgBdBzg First album I ever purchased. Eleven years old. I subsequently bought some real crap, but I can be proud of that one. I saw Crosby and Nash about 5 years ago. The funniest line was by Nas...

I know Kasich spent a ridiculous amount of time in NH, but still... He's definitely the least odious of the remaining GOPers. A respectable finish last night at least keeps some hope alive... Though I'm pretty sure Trump's brand of idiocy is going to destroy in SC. A wolf in sheep's clothing. He is...

With so many across the pond, this is really meaningful, too.

Fuck.

I messaged him a few times, and had the opportunity to meet him once, at the initial Swamp golf outing. He was a good fellow, and will be missed.

Donation coming.

Richard Weed. I use that name (but use Dick) when making a reservation at a restaurant.

Zachary Richard is a Cajun musician in Louisiana. A good portion of his music is in French, and I don't speak the language. One way or another, he has a beautiful voice, and I would love to see him.

It's Stevie Ray Vaughan's birthday. This guy was pretty good. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OEJh2FFUUoU I saw him open for Dire Straits in a small (5,000 seat) arena in Toronto. Nothing wrong with Dire Straits, but it just wasn't fair. When I saw him, he opened for Hank Williams Junior. Junior di...

Yogi Berra, dead at 90. RIP to one of the best bad-ball hitters ever.

No Guy Clark? Huh?

No Stephen Stills, or David Crosby?

Is this Yahoo, or ESPN?

My brother would joion again. Goes by Greenwave.

Try this one......

When Things Were Rotten was great. Way before it's time.

Newhart was also hilarious (Thanks Bensell)

ETA: Dick Van Dyke was a great show, too.

I rarely watch CNN. However, in going through the TV listings tonight, I discovered shows on the Seventies. All you young whippersnappers should watch this to get a clearer idea of what happened in the 70s. Viet Nam. Watergate. Rioting in the streets. An amazing period of time for this country.

This also happens at bars and restaurants, when the server takes your card to run it through the system. They can write down all the information including the CVC (?) number on the back. A couple of years ago, there was a charge on my discover card that I questioned. This expended to a purchase of a...

I see nothing cynical in this comment. Exempting 20% of Americans is probably generous. However, to build on this idea, I think that the segment of the population that was really engaged by matters of peace and justice in 1974 was no more than 20%. And I don't mean the percent that was rallying on ...

A couple of weeks ago, I went to one of our markets to install some new Macs and do a few other things. When I was finished, I set aside a bunch of old Macs and told the business manager out there that some of them can have their hard drives wiped and then given or sold to employees, while a few ot...

[quote="DC47"][quote="howard"]I still enjoy Fogelberg's first few albums, as well as the hit songs about his father and long-lost love. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OYIWeow6W14 Yes. Leader of the band. Dan, in concert one time, said that if he could have only written one song,...

This thread is a lot of fun. Coolest thing I heard on the radio today: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6fkz5tckOMk howard, this album is in my top 10 all-time favorites; maybe top 5. Not a bad cut to be found. Chris Hillman and Al Perkins round it out. How this album got so little air time amazes me.

If it happens, make sure that everything is equal. Treats for each, bedding for each, etc.

Good luck. Two can live as cheaply as one, but it costs twice as much.

Great article. Yes, he is one of my favorite musicians.

Thanks.

Please say a prayer or something, if you're so inclined.

This is the first time I've ever said this: Go, Duke and Kentucky! Because, if they both win, I win all three pools I'm in (including the Swamp pool.) Sorry. In more ways than one. A vertically challenged old CPA, who watched a total of 5-10 minutes of basketball prior to the tournament, wins it. W...

CBS Sports has two brackets. One for Sportsfrog, and one for The Sports Frog.

Are both good?

HDO45331

Windfall. One of my favorites by son volt.

Thanks.

HDO45331

Oh, I was never into Wilco or Tweedy. I loved Uncle Tupelo (hat tip to the Swampers for turning me on to them and others.) Son Volt is much better. A couple more bands that I owe a thank-you to the Swampers are The Killers and The Tragically Hip. Although I do not appreciate all of their music, they...

It's routine for me to love a musician's work for a very short time, and lose all interest afterwards. At least in the pop and rock genres. For example, I was deeply into Jackson Brown up through his first live album, then ... nothing. After the Eagles first three albums, I began to hate them. I lo...

Good. If that is in a previous tax year, you'll get some interest, too.

A letter, referencing the notice, should get you started. There are notice IDs, like CP2000, and there should be an ID# for the letter. Good luck getting anyone. The IRS has been stretched so thin that, even if you get someone, they won't know how to help. The front line people stock the shelves at ...

Worst song ever, without a doubt:

"Yummy Yummy Yummy" by the 1910 Fruitgum Company was released my senior year in high school. This could have ruined music for me, had I paid attention to it. Even then, I did not like, or listen to, top 40 stations. Bubble Gum music.

John Prine is one of my very favorite singer/songwriters. I first heard about him in 1973, when Kris Kristofferson started his concert by saying his first two songs were from one of America's greatest poet laureats, John Prine. He did Billy the Bum, and The Late John Garfield Blues. Prine co-wrote y...

Sinatra, Presley Cash, Hendrix, ???, Bowie, Jagger, Joplin, Cobain?

I should know the one in the middle. Strange eyes.

I don't know how I missed this thread before, but I have been to 3 Huey Lewis concerts in my lifetime. My Mom was a huge fan, and we had to listen a ton of him in the car on summer trips. To be fair one of the shows was a free concert after a Reds game at Riverfront Stadium, I don't think it was Ci...

Would this include all that confounded new-timey stuff?
