akdave Posted March 24, 2016 Share Posted March 24, 2016 Still good morning from the far northwest. It's my Friday this week and I hope you all have a great Easter Weekend. Sorry to hear of Valerie Klipsch's passing. 7 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jason str Posted March 24, 2016 Share Posted March 24, 2016 Mark, food looks awesome! Seems like it might have been mentioned a few pages back, but how did you almost lose that thumb?I rolled a truck on the Baltimore beltway..... I was all drunk and "highed" up......My index finger was ground away....the thumb was ripped off....my middle finger middle joint is fused and my ring finger end joint is fused..... They put the thumb back on....but it also is fused... Oh and the truck I rolled was a really nice 71 Ford Bronco.... it "was" nice..... Just glad I'm not 6' under MKP :-) At least you can still hitch a ride if need be. Glad you made it through alive. 8 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fjd Posted March 24, 2016 Share Posted March 24, 2016 (edited) Thanks Fjd -- wasn’t sure how many people paid attention, and thanks for the cool video. Tennessee and Bullwinkle are my favorites. On the thermos thing, I just picked up a stainless steal Stanley. We will give it a chance. Congratulations on the Stanley; however, I'm sure that along with myself, BigStewMan might also be slightly disappointed you did not go with Bullwinkle or Foghorn Leghorn. .

Moderators dtel Posted March 24, 2016 Moderators Share Posted March 24, 2016 Those are cool, I remember when I was a kid you could get a set, matching lunchbox and small thermos. Just think if back then you just bought up sets like that and some of the older toys, it would be a pretty good investment at today's collector prices. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mom always threw everything out that was no longer used. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moderators dtel Posted March 25, 2016 Moderators Share Posted March 25, 2016 I probably wore mine out, or tore it up, I don't even remember what was on it. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BigStewMan Posted March 25, 2016 Share Posted March 25, 2016 (edited) It’s 12:33 am and it’s been a long day; but, a fun one. My brother and I spent the afternoon messing around Hollywood, then the evening at the Hollywood Bowl watching David Gilmour. The show was fantastic. Oh, and the marijuana was free...everyone in the place got a “contact” high--and we’re outdoors mind you. Can’t recall the last time i saw so many people toking ... including the old man sitting next to me. I think he was there with his son because there was a physical resemblance. The son was firing up numerous times and I was thinking “well, i guess the Dad doesn’t care and the Dad must be driving.” Then i notice the pipe getting passed to old guy and he starts hitting it. By the way, have i mentioned how much i hate the Hollywood Bowl? Iconic venue and all that; but, the most inconvenient venue that i’ve ever been to. About 500 yards of walking with very tiny baby steps, people all around you, bumping into you like a pinball machine...and the parking lot is stacked parking--that was ok this time because i went and parked the car four hours before the show, so my car was the first one in front of the exit. If any of you watch the Jimmy Kimmel show, you saw the back of me walk by on tonight’s show. They had a camera crew on Hollywood Blvd talking to people as i walked by. Was tempted to photo bomb; but, didn’t. I was too hungry to goof around. Lastly, Mr. Gilmour kindly did my two favorites...Shine on You Crazy Diamond and Coming Back to Life. I was never a big fan of the song Run Like Hell from The Wall; but, that song really lends itself to a live performance. The concert was complete with lasers and a fireworks show. David Crosby was there and sang three songs--he butchered Comfortably Numb though. Edited March 25, 2016 by BigStewMan 10 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CECAA850 Posted March 25, 2016 Share Posted March 25, 2016 Super jealous Steve. Sounds like a great show. Happy Friday all, may your work day fly by. 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ceptorman Posted March 25, 2016 Share Posted March 25, 2016 Im jealous too Steve. He is coming to Chicago, I tried to get tickets but couldn't find any without paying WAY over face value. I saw him with Floyd about 33 years ago, I would love to see him again. It's a crisp 34 degrees here this morning, another crazy weather shift. Yesterday it was 15 degrees colder 2 hours north of me, and 20 degrees warmer 2 hours south of me. 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ceptorman Posted March 25, 2016 Share Posted March 25, 2016 It's a crisp 34 degrees here this morning 46 here. Crazy weather. My wife and daughter are in New Braunfels visiting her Dad. She said it was a little chilly there. At least we're not getting the blizzard like conditions like Wisconsin and Minnesota. 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
