I'm a big Flexsteel guy but we haven't bought any of their furniture for several years. They're known for building furniture that lasts BUT I think they've sold out and now a lot is manufactured in China and Mexico. Not the same standards as before evidently given the customer complaints. Really sad. Furniture is one product that I'll gladly pay a premium for if it's high quality.
Now did I say he was 21 years old or did I say he was a 21 year sex offender.
I am a huge Gram Parsons fan and I am glad I am not alone and someone else remembers him. I was crushed when he died. He was a local kid down here and lived a troubled life of drugs but man he was talented. He actually kicked off the career of Emmylou. What a harmony they produced.
Too be honest, I am at the little league field, so I had to check, but yes, you said 21 year old. I know what you meant now.

We just returned from Austin Leather Gallery. Wife likes a sofa with Chaise in black. We measured after returning home. Should fit. Probably pull the trigger tomorrow or Saturday. Custom order. 10 weeks delivery.
He's one of my all-time favorites Sawnee. I was still a teenage kid when I stumbled onto his music - just before he died, alas. And it was dazzling to me. For whatever reason, I can't open the link you posted of another duet with Emmylou. IF it was this one, sorry for the repeat...
Back in the day I would go to the CES Show in Vegas every year right after the holidays. Consumer Electronics Show. VCRs were running strong and the show had an entirely separate display/show for the VCR 'adult entertainment industry'. It was off site at one of the older hotels...maybe the Sands. Buddy of mine wanted to walk over there and I had an hour or two free so I went with him. Man. Literally...no lie...felt like I had to hold my breath afraid that I might catch something in the air. Place was packed and there were probably 150-200 booths of all kinds. Different porn celebs in different booths. Only one I had ever heard of was Ron Jeremy. Got an autographed 8x11 that he made out to my wife (ex now). Can't remember exactly what he wrote on it now...but it was funny....along the lines of I miss you, etc, etc.
A SALUTE to all those that gave everything to make the USA the BEST country on this planet!
I'm looking forward to a weekend at the lake. Hopefully the skies will play nice and I can get some scope time in.

The only thing that matters to me when picking out a sofa, is the armrest. The higher the armrest is, the more likely I'll wind up with a stiff neck.

The actress Sandra Berhard was in one of the booths...loud and carrying on. Couldn't figure out if she dabbled in porn early in her career or was hanging with friends. Probably just hanging...Wiki makes a note 'Bernhard is bisexual and a strong supporter of gay rights' ... so it makes sense that she would hang with that type of crowd. Convention hall was full of weirdos.
That's a huge change from the norm. Almost every year during the Memory Days Parade, it's in the 85°-90° range.
I attended CES in 2002 on my company's dime. Wife and I drove from Austin to Vegas. Got stranded in a snowstorm on I-40 in New Mexico coming back. I'd only been retired from US Army less than a year. Back then, Microsoft Messenger and..... wait for it..... flat screen monitors, were all the rage. Ha ha, awesome memories.Back in the day I would go to the CES Show in Vegas every year right after the holidays. Consumer Electronics Show.

First time I ever saw a flat screen TV (monitor) was at a CES in the late 80s or early 90s. Motorola (I think) had a huge booth and one of the things they were featuring were flat screens. Still in the developmental stage. They were all about 20 inch monitors and were all stacked together (like the old scoreboards) to make a 20 foot wide and 12-15 foot high (approximates) screen. I asked one of their reps....if this 20 inch TV was available on the market...what would it go for. He answered 20-25K. Now it's a 100 bucks....or less.
Can you imagine how loud it will get after the mating. "Why didn't you flap your wings more during the act" "Where are you going?" Who's going to dig the hole to put these eggs in?" " Are you listening to me?"
Wife and I still going fairly decent with our side-business back in '02. I sold a Dell laptop modem to a customer in Vegas during that time. Told him, heck, we'll deliver it to you when we travel out for CES. No problem. He met us at the hotel. Turned out he was in charge of the lightshow at Bellagio. Gave us a tour. Too cool. He required this Dell laptop modem so he could connect offline outside the LAN and connect when not on site.
So, just like in Major League, When you sneeze it looks like a party favor.
OopsMust look like a party favor when you sneeze... (Just saying) 😁
Well, don't "face" the radio if your that ugly, it might blow up from shock.
Juuust a little outside.
I have heard one of these buggers...........about three days ago.......today I went to Lowe's which is about three miles away......they were loud over there.........
Need some of them for bait. Just put a hook through their back right behind the head and eyes and then cast it out. When their wings start flapping the bass start zapping and get hooked. Used them a lot when I was younger.
Yeah. I like to leave the trimmings packed up in there for extra volume. Then I tell people I can read their fortune by how the hairs align on their napkins when I sneeze it all outSo, just like in Major League, When you sneeze it looks like a party favor.
I fell asleep watching TV sitting and the neck injury took months to heal. Still scares me.
