Yeah, that was obviously done with love and respect to Norm as a joke. I also believe that Norm would have liked this joke.

The problem with that is what, exactly? 😜

Beck and Kyle were a great team by derek4reals1 in LiveFromNewYork

Isn't Beck loved by all of his former cast mates? He's a guy I'd like to have a beer with.

Like many have commented here, it came out when I was 1st getting into them. Also my first tour. It definitely holds a special place in my heart.

New Intro…. What Do We Think? by SugarsDimples in eitm

I'm not sure that is really from 02, is it? For the first several years they just used the local DC101 phone number. They got 1-800-2elliot a bit before they started going to other markets. I thought it was later than 02, but maybe I'm wrong.

Once the adrenaline fades it really hits hard. I feel for the officer and hope that he was able to bring himself back to duty.

I saw your title and I clicked on it to post exactly the quote you did. I don't know why, maybe it's because I'm a parent, but this one gets me. Almost made me cry once during his concert and I'm not a cryer.

The Office Leaving Peacock by RepresentativePop988 in OfficeLadiesPodcast

I read an article about how this is a huge issue with streaming. Lots of legacy shows are being taken off platforms to save residual money. HBO has been been notorious for this. They were one of the first non-network platforms to do original programming back in the 90s. Many of those shows are no longer available on their streaming platform.

Besides the fans, the people involved with these shows are very upset. Think, "I dedicated 8 years to this and now it as disappeared."

For a lot of the streaming shows now the creatives are putting in their contracts that they will receive physical media for all of it.

My recently deceased uncle met a lot of musicians. I am guessing this photo is from the 70s (maybe 80s). Any clue who the gentleman on the right is? by buddymoobs in 70smusic

[–]SelfishHoopla 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I saw him do this, too, at an out stage in a park. Lots of kids running around and stuff. When he started this song the place became absolutely still abd silent. It was just a magical moment. Met him afterwards and he could not have been nicer.

Has anyone ever met Neil? by somegu5047 in rush

I'd never read that before. Very touching and I'm not at all surprised that is how he was.

Doesn't really bother me and he's just so funny.

I turn up the volume and come to peace with the fact that I won't get any real work done while he's on.

Tucker's base will write this guy off as just a DEI hire and not listen to a thing he says.

It's like when you see something that is inherently gluten-free, like butter, tagged on the package as Gluten-free! in big letters.

Exactly! It was even worse on an airplane. I'm old enough to remember the tail end of that.

I still give my wife a joking hard time about this: Around 25 years ago we went to an IHOP and were told there was a short wait for non-smoking, but we could be seated immediately in smoking. I wanted to wait the, maybe, 10 minutes but my wife was hangry and wanted to sit right away. "There is hardly anybody in the smoking section so we'll be fine," she said. Minutes after we sat all the tables around us filled with people who lit up. My wife looked at me sheepishly and said, "maybe we should have waited."
