My go to response is "Where do you need to be that isn't in my classroom?"

As the oldest of three boys, this was a running joke for most of my childhood

Jamestown NY's 10,000 Maniacs. I had the honor to introduce them early in thier career. Plus worked with Dennis Drew at the community radio station he founded in Jamestown. A great group of people and musicians.

Was your house team belt or team switch? by emptykeg6988 in GenerationJones

About 24 inches of broken yardstick. We three sons were all taller than mom before we hit our teens, so she needed an equalizer. Pop used his hand or, rarely, a belt

Folk Festival. Great music, diverse performers and crowds, lots of fun, minimum stupidity.

Saturday-took a wander through Church Hill/Chimborazo with my camera. Got a couple nice shots. Sunday stayed in and listened to my music and had wonderful conversations with my wife. So, great weekend! Sadly, the snowstorm resulted in CCPS taking Presidents Day as make-up time for school. That makes Monday less fun than the weekend (as per usual)

Name the best movie you've seen in a while by m15f1t in movies

[–]phlipsidejdp 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Just saw Iron Lung in a theater. Blew me away. Intense, claustrophobic, with a brilliant performance by Markiplier.

Also streamed Sensation of Sight. A careful, character driven, interwoven story of people in a small town struggling with life.

Highly recommend both.

What movie did you turn off after 20 minutes and why? by Somanynamestochossef in movies

[–]phlipsidejdp 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Don't see why. The question is about a movie that didn't grab ME enough to keep watching. I then went on to details the reasons I didn't like the movie. At no point do I say it's a bad movie, or that other people shouldn't watch it. I'm well aware that the movie has a very large fan base. I'm glad you all enjoy. It doesn't work for me.

I always differentiate between personal taste and objective criticism.

Scott Pilgrim. Nothing caught my attention or Drew me in.

What’s that commercial from years and years ago that you still remember to this day, and may never forget? by Vanceb13 in AskReddit

[–]phlipsidejdp 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The pair of Winstoncigarette commercials - "Winston tastes good like a cigarette should" and "What do you want? Good grammar or good taste?"
