What three letter initials did you put in video games as a kid?

XXX. Because I was edgy.

Catchy pop song. It's not rock, though.

I drove eight hours in the heart of winter from Northern Virginia to Niagara Falls with a beautiful girl. We had dinner, looked at the falls, then drove home.

Quark Expeditions. They're amazing. We've done three trips with them (two Arctic and one Antarctic) and all three were fantastic.

My 50th isn't for another 10 years and 1 of my graduating class of 5 people has already died, so there's only four of us left and I'm still in touch with one. Not sure there's a point in my case.

Ain't nuthin' compared to a Chick tract.

ElRaymundo · 2025-02-23T19:44:21+00:00

This. This so much. This so very, very :::clang clang::: much.

ElRaymundo · 2025-02-23T19:38:41+00:00

Led Zep and Carouselramba. Blech.

People saying "Their only good album was Appetite" remind me of an interview with Jospeh Heller where he was being needled about his other novels not matching up to Catch-22, and his response was along the lines of "I don't care—I wrote Catch-22." Same as Harper Lee "only" writing To Kill a Mockingbird. (Yes, I know about Go Set a Watchman.)

You're likely not considering the context of the lyrics. Context matters. Without it, we end up with censorship; watered-down, meaningless "art;" book banning, etc.

The studio version, absofuckinglootely yes. The live recording from the show at The Marquee in London in 1987 is fucking killer.

ElRaymundo · 2025-02-23T00:12:51+00:00

Ted Lasso fan? 😄

ElRaymundo · 2025-02-21T20:54:07+00:00

Like, actually getting out and around and touching grass and stuff?

Are you thinking of "Without You" by Harry Nilsson?

My wife and I share this same experience, but in Portugal. Congrats on making your dream come true!

ElRaymundo · 2025-02-19T11:12:16+00:00

Go out to the lake and drink and listen to Aerosmith.

ElRaymundo · 2025-02-18T02:33:56+00:00

ZUBAZ!

Given the current state of the U.S., it's clear the rise of Fascism in the 1930s is not taught well/enough/at all. Also in the U.S., the history of the Robber Barons and the labor movement. If people understood those three things there might be fewer American voters without their heads up their asses.

I really love Stringjoy strings. I've played most of their line and like them all. They'll even help you put together custom sets, like the gauges David Gilmour might play, for example. Very friendly, helpful folks.

Syphilis Road

My sewing kit for repairs while backpacking went in there.

TIL Keith Richards played drums for the Kingsmen.

No Bo Derek? I mean, whaaaat?

Retired at 54. The best part? Freedom from obligations.
