  1. The writing was excellent. I was disappointed with his last outing, but he is right back at the top of his game with this one. I tend to like movies with superb writing and/or ensemble casts, so this one was right up my ally.
  2. That is the Bill I know. Nice to see you Lars.
  3. Wishing all of my family and friends in the UK, Canada and former British Colonies Happy Boxing Day.
  4. Was in Fredericksburg last month with Luther and our gals, picked up sone of their once a year Christmas wine.
  5. He did. He said it in an interview several months before it hit the media in the US.
  6. Merry Christmas! Alvin Lee is awesome. He helped his pal George out a time or two by joining in. The Beatles are right up there with the Beach Boys, Barbara, Michael Jackson, Whitney, Beyonce and every other giant POP act. You can have 'em. Give me the Stones, Ten Years After, Buddy Guy, and a 1,000 other bands if it is nuances you are really looking for. "I wanna hold your hand"
  7. "A copy mailed to Alcon Entertainment co-CEO Andrew Kosove was uploaded to file-sharing sites as the FBI probes a damaging leak of the Quentin Tarantino film. "I've never seen this DVD," Kosove tells THR."
  8. LAST SEEN Kitimat, British Columbia, Canada HEADING FOR Juneau, Alaska, United States in 3 minutes, 8 seconds GIFTS DELIVERED 6.6 Mil
  9. Beautiful, you will love it. Don't leave the area, DO NOT try to drive to Guadalajara.
  10. Haven't seen 'em yet. If their wierd they will fit in and you would never be able to notice 'em. What kind of music do they like?
  11. So obviously not a fan of Lancelot Link? Loved speed racer. It came after school in LA also. I want to say about '67 or 68. We had Kimba the White Lion as well. When we moved to Bay Area, no one had heard of either.
  12. Paid 1.61 on Lampasas today, it is 1.61 all over Joshua (North of Cleburne). Jet A is at a 20 year low.
  13. Just like in Chicago, cool.
  14. You beat me to it, didn't read thread before I posted. I agree with your sentiments entirely.
  15. Done, The Ripple Maker, it makes designs in you coffee froth, and a drone, are ahead of an educational product. Seriously, the Ripple Maker? There has to be 400 votes here.
  16. I tried to look up Arlington and Ft Worth but didn't have any luck with times or tickets. I **** everything he has done with the exception of Django, which I thiught was up and down.
  17. I see what you are saying now. Those specs don't maKe any make any mention of having a projection screen in front of them, or what their reference screen would be and what would neednto be adjusted. I do know that in the case of the screen sibmitted by Bill H there was enought of a measurable difference to make any corrections necessary. From a Bill H post on the subject: Call Chris Seymour http://www.seymourav.com/ I have an AT screen in front of JubScala center and KPT-884 sub. Roy measured the screen and said it's one of the best he's seen. Chris has about any configuration you like including DIY.
  18. Well, I don't think Jeff or I are saying do nothing. So I hope you will save the 250.00, but will instead schedule a physical. Do you have insurance? If so the out of pocket should be way less than 250.00. Tell them that you want to start exercising and want to do a physical first. At 50 they will give you an EKG, bloodwork, including PSA, rectal exam (don't defer it since you do not know your family history), liver panel, etc., etc. Most important, they are going to take blood to see where you are on blood sugar, if pre-diabetic or not. They will explain to you that being overweight is not good, but it is more important where you carry that fat in terms of health risk. That around gut, waist line is very bad, visceral fat, and that certain ratios of body measurements are as good, if not better, predictor of heart health risk. Jeff is way more up to speed on this, he brought it up in some discussions a few months ago on diet, health and exercise. It is a stacked deck if you dont have professional help. To lose weight the previous school of thought was either exercise more, or consume fewer calories. Which isn't true they have found, high fructose corn syrup calories will cause you to out on more weight, all things being equal. Then you get told to avoid fat for heart risks and then see all of the LOW FAT stuff on the shelvs does have the fat removed, and has been replaced with one form of sugar or another. But even I can understand it with minimal trouble. If they cover a nutritionist in your plan you are really golden, they will help educate you. We have them on staff at our local grocery store. I am glad yo see you are taking positive steps to find out where you currently stand, if it is safe to do some exercise, and a change in diet, and then let professionals assess your particular situation.

  19. It's in Arkansas, apparently it is a crime there as suggested by the article, so the prosecutor says he is going to charge him with the buggery and the tresspass, both misdemeanors.Obviously, there is a lot more to this with this guy. I'm guessing they caught him at this before and, for whatever reason, decided to pursue it with a civil restraining rather than criminally. Although I don't see mention of a restraining order in the article, just that he was ordered off the property, which is required by most criminal tresspass statutes. If there was a restraining order he could be jailed immediately, no bond, for criminal contempt for violating the order. I didn't see any mention of that in the article, but "other charges" were mentioned, so I am not sure exactly happened with that. I think what is really important here is that he hopefully learns learns that it would be completely legal in Texas. An old "Buggery" definition: BUGGERY, crim. law. The detestable crime of having commerce contrary to the order of nature, by mankind with mankind, or with brute beasts, or by womankind with brute beasts. 3 Inst. 58; 12 Co. 36; Dane's Ab. Index, h. t.; Merl. Repert. mot Bestialie. This is a highly penal offence. "A Law Dictionary, Adapted to the Constitution and Laws of the United States." By John Bouvier. Published 1856. End Quote Otherwise known as Bouvier's Law Dictionary Edit: Article says McDonald was "banned" from the property months ago. Still not clear what this means. He was fired and told never to come back? Given a criminal tresspass warning? Or if a protective/restraining order was issued. The second charge was cut off on the scan and now, on a more carefull look is "beastality", not buggery as I initially thought. "Ole McDonald had a farm (he used to work on), And on that farm there were some tiny horses, With a whinny, whinny here, and a whinny there, here a neigh, there a neigh, Ole McDonald was dragged off that farm"
  20. They are based in Austin, but I am not familar with them? How old are you, approximately? A good annual physical by a good physician with blood sent off to the Boston Heart for testing is going to be much more informative for you. Ask your doctor what he thinks about it. Here is a brief discussion about some potential drawbacks.
