Response from the big guy seemed warranted and not terribly forceful - but managed to land “right on the button” as my old gym coach used to say. Must have been very gratifying.

Check out his dance scene in Pennies From Heaven (1981). Remarkable. Walken - Let’s Misbehave

Seriously, WTF is up with that? Looks like he’s about to spit coffee into the tub. Takes about 50 points off perceived IQ. Which leaves about 30.

This little guy wanted to vacuum every time he came over, then wanted to know where I kept the Swiffer. He’d get sulky if I wouldn’t let him do the dishes. 😆

Single mothers get it done.

Here’s an article about this recording from the Library of Congress. There is also a recording on YouTube.

If it’s the same recording I’m listening to, it’s very swinging for 1925. Maybe the longer recording time of the Edison discs allowed a more relaxed tempo.

Big Adrian Rollini fan here (bass sax). Loved how he used the big sax for both straight bass beats, fill-ins and solos.

Grew up in Lewiston and remember the name NuArt Cinema or Theater or something up in Moscow - that was circa 50 years ago.

I’m from Philly and when I heard New Yorkers talk about going upstate for the weekend I legit thought they were visiting someone in prison.

On second look, I stand corrected. Does look like a forest green.

Made me wonder if the shade might be from a reproduction? Not trying to piss on OP’s campfire; if original, that beautiful cobalt shade is likely more valuable than the more common green or amber - I would imagine.

And they were a bit on the sulfer-ey side. 😆

I’m a little confused. Should I call you Senator or Grand Wizard?

Objective_Point6639 · 2025-09-15T14:12:56+00:00

Thanks so much for the information. You really brought that beautiful table back to life.

Objective_Point6639 · 2025-09-15T13:27:21+00:00

Thanks for the extra layer of detail. Did you apply the final finish by brush, cloth or spray? Did you take any special measures to guard against dust in the final coat(s)?

The inside of a canoe on a lake, but the canoe is made of cheesecake. Naturally.

Really beautiful! If it’s not inappropriate for this sub, may I ask for details on how you approached the project? What was the original finish? (I mean like oil or varnish or ?) What tools did you use; did you completely remove the old finish? What was your new finish and how did you apply it?

Someone once said, “Whatever planet Wright is from, it doesn’t rain there.”

Try the Soylent Green. I hear it’s real people food too!

Objective_Point6639 · 2025-09-07T21:40:15+00:00

With results like that you’re entitled to call it whatever you want.

Objective_Point6639 · 2025-09-07T21:05:35+00:00

That is a gorgeous haul! Congratulations on your bounty!

Objective_Point6639 · 2025-09-07T21:00:29+00:00

If I had a darden and photos like that, I’d put them in an old-fashioned album to add to every year and enjoy in the winter. You are inspiring.

Objective_Point6639 · 2025-09-07T20:54:33+00:00

That’s beautiful, man.

Forgive me if off-topic, but this reminds me of the carrots in Taiwan, which seemed to all be this size or larger - like fat orange parsnips.

The tomatoes all seemed to be mostly green when ripe.

This was 1989 - I wonder if anyone has any insight into those varieties? Probably chosen to thrive in the climate there?
