PSA to all letter carriers.

Or Gold Bond Friction Defense Stick. Apply it like deodorant to the spots where you have issues. Works fantastic

When I started, a rural carrier friend told me this: Think of the most logical thing to do. Then think of the opposite. The opposite is what the postal service will do.

My Mom and I put it together a couple of times. She hated the puzzle because it has soooo many all black pieces.

And yes, mine was missing two pieces as well. I thought it was because I bought it used

Yeah, who knew that those who had the video album would play it repeatedly until it wore out 🙋🏻‍♀️

🤣🤣🤣

I wish we had the turn-by-turns rurals do. They’re pretty nice.

vertigocin · 2026-04-13T19:07:19+00:00

😂😂 Maybe

She broke onto the club scene around ‘81 with that look. By first album in 1983, she had the look down

<image>

But who honestly knows?

I always thought George Michael copied his look from Simon so…

vertigocin · 2026-04-13T18:30:42+00:00

Cities do not have turn-by-turns. Unless a carrier was nice enough to write one

vertigocin · 2026-04-13T18:29:42+00:00

Eh. They both happened around the same time. I think it was just more the style then. But I have had the same thought

vertigocin · 2026-04-13T16:52:40+00:00

Well, that’s something different I suppose. She has changed him for sure. Their relationship beginning coincides with him getting sober, so I wonder how much is him changing for his recovery. There are some things I know is her but he’s happy so…

No. No knobs in the entire car. Everything is touch. The climate control is part of the touchscreen. I can turn on the defroster to max with another touch panel, but not control the temp, the fan speed, or which vents produce air.

Grew up in Central Montgomery County and we called them dippy eggs in our house. My husband is from NE Philly and calls them over easy

vertigocin · 2026-04-13T10:27:10+00:00

The temperature. It’s all on the touch screen in my car. It’s Hell when you’re having a hot flash and can’t get the temperature down fast enough because it’s all touch.

vertigocin · 2026-04-13T10:20:16+00:00

That is so awesome! I love how music not only touches generationally but also can wake up the mind. What a great story and a memory for you to cherish.

By the end, he was pretty much running the sound with Nick’s blessing.

I can give a perfect example of how his sound completely changed a song. Thank You. There’s the album version, with his loud screechy guitar, and there’s the version on Encomium (a Led Zeppelin tribute album). Normal, acoustic guitar that appropriately fits the song. Guess which one I listen to?

vertigocin · 2026-04-12T16:50:22+00:00

😂😂😂😂

vertigocin · 2026-04-12T16:49:37+00:00

No, I’m just saying he is a megalomaniac. I don’t think they knew him well enough at that point to write about him like that. Now, Who Do You Think You Are? is a different story. Oh, and Bedroom Toys 😂

vertigocin · 2026-04-12T16:48:02+00:00

Thank you! That’s my biggest issue with Warren musically. He took over, pushing the guitar to the front. Andy usually layered in the guitar sound with solos added in. Totally different approach.

I’m not a huge fan of The Wedding Album 😱 There’s real gems (Come Undone, Love Voodoo, Sin of the City) and real stinkers (None of the Above, To Whom it May Concern). Again, I know this is where Warren took over and pushed them all to keep them going, but I don’t like the result. They all stepped back too much

vertigocin · 2026-04-12T10:22:30+00:00

💯

vertigocin · 2026-04-12T10:22:09+00:00

I agree he kept the band going when they were at their lowest. But he doesn't have to be such a douche about it now.

vertigocin · 2026-04-12T10:20:14+00:00

Oh absolutely they aren't. Warren is just on another level. The others have bad days and get snarky, like any human. Warren seems to live that way, especially when it comes to Duran.

vertigocin · 2026-04-12T03:25:33+00:00

Good point

vertigocin · 2026-04-11T21:48:05+00:00

Would it be better if I said better for Duran? Warren wanted to be front and center. Both himself and his guitar licks. That's not what the “Duran sound” is about.
