If you're ever in the area check out The Thayer Hotel. They are on The West Point campus. Their Sunday champagne brunch is the stuff of legend. I'm not sure what the price is of late. The last time I took the Wife it was around $27.00 per person. They could have charged $50.00, and it still would have been well worth it.

‘That to us in Australia is cheap 

I took a family of 6 adults to a nice Mediterranean restaurant and it cost me just over $800 bucks

Always wanted to tour West Point but I never got along with "ring tappers" very well in the Army. The resturant would work though.  :)

The "Tapper" through me off for a sec. "Ring Banger" or "Knocker" is how I have always heard it. "Tapper" works though.

Zappas' Berlin connection... Was before my time, but I heard about it, from older colleagues at work. 

There is a "Frank Zappa Straße" (Road) in Berlin.

Killer photo @MicroMara!  Actually, the best I've seen yet.  Great lp's thrown down too. 

 

See what all the biking does for you?  Just watch out for the morons. 

 

Back in the day I'd do 100-150 miles a week with no helmet just my cap.  Had my lil Sony cassette player & a headset.  I'd hit that wall about 7 mile into the ride so programmed my tunes for it.  Worked like a charm.  Kicked it, got thru it and cruised.  Sweat like a pig!  We'd go about 19 -24 mph out in the country around here when there were 3-4 of us together.  Those guys were riders and pushed each other.  Somehow I hung w/em.  lol

 

Solo it got hairy.  People were crazy on the country roads.  If ya got clipped ya might lay there for hours.  Germany?  Just HAS to be insane.  Stay woke!  lol

In Florida safe and sound. Thus far the temperature has been quite tolerable. Heading out for an airboat ride in The Everglades. 😁

Quick fact...The Everglades is actually not a swamp but a slow moving river. Considered by many to be the worlds widest river at 112 miles.

"Emotional Rescue"

 

Is there nothing I can say

Nothing I can do

Change your mind

I'm so in love with you

 

Too deep in

You can't get out

You're just a poor girl in a rich man's house

 

Yeah, baby, I'm crying over you

 

Don't you know promises were never made to keep?

Just like the night, they dissolve off in sleep

I'll be your savior, steadfast and true

I'll come to your emotional rescue

I'll come to your emotional rescue

 

Yeah, the other night, crying

Crying baby, yeah yeah I'm crying

Yeah I'm like a child baby

I'm like a child baby

Child yeah, I'm like a child, like a child like a child like a child

 

You think you're one of a special breed

You think that you're his pet Pekingese

I'll be your savior, steadfast and true

I'll come to your emotional rescue

I'll come to your emotional rescue

 

I was dreaming last night babe

Last night I was dreaming

How you'd be mine, but I was crying

Like a child, yeah, I was crying

Crying like a child

 

You will be mine, mine, mine, mine, mine, all mine

You could be mine, could be mine, could be mine all mine

 

I come to you, so silent in the night

So stealthy, so animal quiet

I'll be your savior, steadfast and true

I'll come to your emotional rescue

I'll come to your emotional rescue

 

Yeah, you should be mine, mine, whew

 

Yes, you could be mine

Tonight and every night

I would be your knight in shining armour

Coming to your emotional rescue

 

You will be mine, you will be mine, all mine

You will be mine, you will be mine, all mine

 

I will be your knight in shining armour

Riding across the desert on a fine Arab charger

 

Hated this when it was released in 1980. Love it now. DiscoStones. 

This is a nice copy I have. Came with the poster. Found it at Electric Fetus in Minneapolis about 10 years ago. $10.00.
