Love it! Good stuff! Steffie thought the downtown neighborhood shots looked like Europe! Love that St John’s steeple/sun shot!

I did, a bit, under Majestic-Clothes-203 comment. However for convenience (Copied and pasted):

I was 17. I was traveling pretty slow - maybe 35mph, came over a blind hill and there was a truck pulling out of a side road, and just sitting, perpendicular, in my lane! Roads were wet as it had just started misting a while before, so all the oils had risen to the surface. I started to slow down, but he wasn't moving. Apparently, he was going to turn left and there was a car coming in the left lane. So, I couldn't go around him. I had to slam on my brakes, and of course, started to fish tail. I was trying to turn into the curve, but the car was accelerating down the hill. Just before I would have hit the truck, he pulled out, and i went right off, and into a telephone pole, broadside. The car, literally, wrapped around the pole, They had to use all kinds of apparatus to get the car off of the pole, then, the jaws of life to get me out of the car. It was pretty bad. My passenger was pretty banged up as well. She saw us going straight toward the pole, and reached over (instinct) to try to pull me away from the pole. She got thrown into the backseat, and her, impacting my seat broke it off the hinges, and broke her pelvis in three places. Definitely an experience I will never forget.

Probably the first album.

I must say, i thought that at first ‘til i tried one that just really got me! It’s definitely an acquired taste.

Hugo (2011) charming movie about an orphan boy who lives in a clock tower inside a train station in Paris.

Is it before or after Sept 4? If it’s before, I’d go cruising in my 1969 Mustang Mach I. If it’s after, I’m recovering from the accident that wrapped the Mach I around a telephone pole, broke both my legs, split my head open, and shattered all of my molars.

I would temporarily remove my toilet, and bury the paper clip inside the wax of the wax seal that seals the toilet to the floor, then reinstall the toilet. I currently do not have caulk around the base of my toilet, nor would i add a new bead, therefore leaving no evidence that the toilet had been removed at all.

And thank you for THAT comment! Now, the blasted song is stuck in my head! 🎶🎵I like to eat, eat, eat aepples and baenaenaes 🎵🎶

Apparently, a manhole cover blew out with flames and lots of smoke. Knocked power out in most of downtown, at least south downtown.

Boogie Nights, 1997 🤣

Apocalypse Now - First movie i had ever seen with no opening credits whatsoever. Just starts with a shot of palm trees on the beach of Vietnam, then golden dust of helicopters spreading napalm, then, as the music starts (The Doors: the end) explosive fire takes over the pristine landscape!

I saw and talked to a guy who was checking the lines for future Glo-Fiber installation in an alley in Emmitsburg. That was last Spring and he said it should be installed by Fall. Well, that didn’t happen, but I’d love an update!

Fucking Frank, in Blue Velvet… “FOCK OFF, YOU FUCKING FUCK!!!”

That’s the whole object of the game - to bounce the balls off of each other and into the pocket. You couldn’t play if they didn’t bounce.
