Post by: ggould on September 09, 2008, 08:21:28 AM
I heard an ad yesterday saying 1977.  If I'm wrong, Urth or I can change this, nuke this, or merge it later!

So, special LHC (http://www.sciencefriday.com/videos/watch/10143) set tomorrow?

B.J. Thomas's cover of "Don't Worry Baby" would seem highly unlikely.  As would ONJ's DSB.  But I like the idea!

I wish we could share your optimism, Mark. The polling suggests otherwise -- uneducated, older "Hillary women" are going for Palin in a major way, unfortunately. Add the Fundies, who swung the '04 election for GWB, and Obama has his work cut out for him.

BOS1 to Fleetwood Mac -- it may be overplayed, but since I saw Linsday Buckingham this past weekend at the Mountain Winery (as did Alicat, I think??), I can't stop thinking about how good this song is...  (though he played some FM, this wasn't one of them).

And a BOS2 to Birdland -- reminds me of home (Western NY) and chicken wings...

Maybe I'm being too technical, but fundies are not swing voters any more than us flaming liberals are.  We are the entrenched voters.

TANC: I was thinking about this song on my way home from work last night when the Jaggerz' "The Rapper" came up on my iPod.

But I'll join the chorus of acclamation for "Birdland" as BOS.

a pretty nice place, we had great seats -- you prob did, too b/c I heard KFOG-free-tix related chatter around us -- and I think LB did a great show... he's a fine guitarist, and he was having fun.

We got there w plenty o' time to spare, and chillaxed on the veranda.  great view, expensive eats and drinks, nice night, longish drive back to SF in our 69 Bug...  heh!  fun times!
