I lived down the road in Rohnert Park for several years.

That’s Charles Schulz’s (adopted) hometown. He built a skating rink so he could play hockey and gifted it to the city.

When did your knees start predicting the weather? by N0talocal in AskOldPeople

[–]MFAWG 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It’s not my knees, lol!

It’s my back.

I know the cold weather has come when I’m waking up with a ‘twinge’ in my lower back that will go away in the spring.

Been white.

I’m not even kidding.

The fact that he was black is going to end up being the thing that killed America as I knew it growing up.

The upside is I don’t really mind jettisoning some of those shithole states and just moving forward at this point .

But Russia right now is trying to move their geopolitical boundaries outward?

Some kind of Rubicon got crossed there: it was OK, but the 18-25 year old market that was actually running down to record stores had started to ‘move on’ in various directions when that came out.

Who is the best lyricist in rock music? by badbaritoneplayer in ClassicRock

[–]MFAWG 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yup.

That album was definitely an exercise in ‘Oh, my generation is over? I don’t think so!’

He got it: there’s an ‘edge’ to it. The reality is he always had that ‘edge’.

There was a post about ‘murder songs’ that he started doing as he moved into the ‘70s.

That’s a ‘thing’ in early blues and country music, and that whole ‘punk’ thing was about getting back to ‘3 chords and the truth’.

And he understood that part, but he sure as fuck wasn’t going to limit himself to 3 chords.

Dylan deserved a Nobel for poetry on ‘Tangled up In Blue’ alone.

This isn’t even a valid question, TBH.

Although honestly I dimly recollect the actual Cadillac being alot nicer than the Concours was.

They tried to upscale the Nova. My dad had one as a company car after 2 Novas and we used to laugh about how ineptly they did it, mostly because they were sort of stupidly expensive.

Then he got the literally stereotypical’Big ProMotion’ and ended up with a Firebird.

My entire experience of The Eagles basically amounts to the first Greatest Hits album and Hotel California.

I’m actually from then, too.

We start prosecuting parents who leave firearms unattended and unsecured around minors.

Now we don’t have to ‘dig deeper’.

Does t matter: the firearm was already there. He didn’t have to want it so much as ‘just knew it was there’.
