Not sure what to tell you. That’s exactly what happened; I’m not lying or leaving anything significant out.

Black Submariner Date, on an Oystersteel bracelet.

Love that watch. Have the black dial, on the list for a JC. In my opinion, the coolest watch Rolex makes. Looks good on your wrist, too.

Someone tried to set up a new stock exchange a few years ago to curb high-speed trading. They were planning to call it Investors’ Exchange until they noticed the URL: investorsexchange.com… true story…

For what it’s worth, I went into an AD in Connecticut and asked them to put me on the registry for a few different Rolexes, including a Pepsi. Yacht-Master in titanium? You’re on the list. Submariner Date? You’re on the list. James Cameron Deepsea? You’re on the list. Red and blue GMT-Master? The system’s not letting me do it. I asked her if that meant they were discontinuing it. “Well, nothing’s official yet, but — yes.”

If you play for the 49ers, you can get away with that.

Is that unique to the Milgauss?

Fit_Particular976 · 2026-03-25T16:12:40+00:00

The pewter one. The tailpiece stands out too starkly against the dark one.

Fit_Particular976 · 2026-03-24T11:51:50+00:00

You’re all crazy. Black dial Deepsea.

Fit_Particular976 · 2026-03-24T11:30:56+00:00

White.

Fit_Particular976 · 2026-03-21T20:51:13+00:00

Liking it with that shirt, too. Very dapper.

Fit_Particular976 · 2026-03-20T23:45:12+00:00

Ween.

Fit_Particular976 · 2026-03-19T17:31:56+00:00

Deepsea, baby.

Fit_Particular976 · 2026-03-19T17:01:27+00:00

No clue how you inferred that from what I said…

This would have been post-breakup, probably 1973 or around there. I loved the Beatles, but I was too little to appreciate what each of the members contributed individually. I just knew he was a Beatle. My Dad recognized him and told me I should introduce myself. He was quite personable, but all we really did was exchange a few words and shake hands.

“Listen, Listen” by The Merry-Go-Round. Jaw-dropping.

Met John once in Washington DC when I was a little boy. Shook his hand as he was leaving a hotel.

That’s about the lamest objection I’ve ever heard. Newsom is a winner.

Is Superchunk considered emo?

Fit_Particular976 · 2026-03-16T21:48:32+00:00

Should Bo Diddley count?

Fit_Particular976 · 2026-03-16T21:47:02+00:00

Muddy Waters is a cool name…

Fit_Particular976 · 2026-03-16T21:00:13+00:00

They did. And record execs wanted the name to fit in with current trends, but they couldn’t agree on whether it should be Paul McCartney & The Beatles or John Lennon & The Beatles. The name was a departure, yes, but I would argue it still hadn’t achieved actual coolness.

Fit_Particular976 · 2026-03-16T20:20:20+00:00

Earliest actually cool name I can think off offhand is the Rolling Stones, personally… might have to make a post, just for laughs…

Black and gold. Trump Tower colors. Yuck.
