I haven't watched this one but it states that it is the full movie. I saved it.

 

[MdWIldcat55]

Since it's been a few years since I've watched it, I might sit down and watch it this weekend myself.

Always watched Jaws the week before our family rented a beach house in Delaware for ten days to get in the mood. We did that every summer from the year our first was born til they were both away from home.

I also enjoyed the book. A little different. A little darker. Spoiler alert…in the book the Richard Dreyfus character has an affair with the chief’s wife, then gets eaten by the shark in the end…

Pretty much been a conservative first...Repub second kind of guy. Can remember telling Mom & Dad when I went to school to be sure to vote for Ike...which they did (not because of me). Have voted for some Dems....voted Carter (big mistake...corrected it four years later). Voted for a couple Dems when I lived in Georgia 'cause I knew them...Sam Nunn and Joe Frank Harris. But probably starting about mid-late 80s starting going pretty straight ticket. A couple Dems I liked that sounded like they believed in what I do ... but if they're voted in it just leads to a stronger Dem majority or a stronger minority...plus, especially with Dems...they get in office and then vote as the Dem leadership wants...which is not at all what I want.
And when there is a Repub I don't like/agree with/etc....I don't vote for that office. Didn't care for McCain so didn't vote for Prez in '08, haven't voted for Portman the last two cycles he's run (and won), and won't vote again for DeWine.

I'm from a family that was always Democrat. Went to school with some of the Julian Carroll family. His brother was the principal at the grade school I attended. But I voted for the man, not the party. By the time Reagan came around, I registered Republican so I could vote for the more conservative candidate in a primary. Its kind of funny in that my 93 year old mother has become very conservative.

Julian Carroll - that’s a name I hadn’t heard in a long time. When I was a high school junior I got picked for Boys State and went to Richmond, the Eastern campus, for some hootenanny of fake governing. Julian Carroll was Lt. governor then and he came and chatted with us in small groups. I guess he was the first “famous” person I ever met.

Tanker Buddy...

Well my avocado crop is pretty much wiped out by critters. Squirrels, coons, possums and groundhogs have taken their toil on my tree. An avocado is pretty much free from insects and common diseases that an orange tree would have but critters are the problem. They can wipe you out.

I counted 21 seeds on the ground this morning and so far I have lost over 100. They eat the peeling, fruit and leave the hard seed scattered on the ground. It is too late to stop them this year but next year I will be ready.

The lesson in this is you can not grow fruit trees and plants next to a swamp. A swamp is beautiful and the wildlife are plentiful but you don't farm next to one.

Are any of the seeds good to sprout and grow from?

Good morning from ATX. Currently 77°F and clear. 82% humidity. Slight possibility for showers late day. Expecting 97°F for today's high.

We hired a crew to pressure wash and paint our house. Also need an outside panel replaced. Washing complete. Painting should commence shortly.

Wishing happiness and health for all our fellow D-League members.

Good morning D-League. It's currently 68° and cloudy here in Eastern Kentucky. This afternoon will bring a chance of a thunderstorm and a high of 90°.

Everyone stay safe out there today.

 

[BBUK]

Oh, May your days today be worth your efforts. Put a good effort into making this day special for someone, even for yourselves. God Bless you all...

Best Actor Oscar goes to....

James Cagney- Yankee Doodle Dandy (1942)

One of my all time favorite movies. I own it and normally watch it at least once a year. (Gary Cooper presenting.)

Gary Cooper won the year before for.................. "Sergeant York" (I own that one too.)

Good morning D League. Hazy and warming up in the east.

Off to a bad start in neighborhood relations today. I grabbed a t-shirt randomly knowing it’d be sweaty after my morning walk and go right into the dirty clothes.

As I left the house I bumped into the 30-something neighbor couple heading out for a jog. They seemed a little off but I didn’t think much if it.

Then I looked at my t-shirt. I’d grabbed one I got in Crawford Texas back in 2003 that says - TEXAS - it’s bigger than FRANCE. Then it has a map showing that. And then I recall the wife of the couple grew up in Paris. France, not Texas.

Ah well. Hope the D-League avoids insulting the neighbors today.

The fruit is not mature so I don't know. I have grown some nice trees from seed but they were mature. I think I will try just for the heck of it.

 

[AustinTXCat]

This morning's haul. Two finds. Second find = $2.97 worth of change in a plastic shopping bag in front of an auto body shop just down the street. Life is good.

A little warm and humid on the porch this morning. Storms rolling in so it might be a wet morning/afternoon.
The Mrs and her daughter and the kids are heading out later this morning for a long weekend at a small resort in east/central Ohio. Place has treehouses you stay in (may just be cabins on poles like you see in the Smokies), but they'll have fun. Not too far at all from the 'amish country' here in Ohio so I'm sure the Mrs will want to go to a couple little towns and shop. Already told her that if they do....to stop off at my favorite all-time restaurant with the best/largest donuts I've ever had...take a cooler and bring a few home.

Me? I'll enjoy the peace and quiet. Nothing else on the docket.

Y'all have a good day. Matthew has stayed where they're going......

Good morning D-League.

Read Hosea 111 and 12

It's currently 74° and the sun he is a rising. This afternoon we have a 25% chance of rain and a high of 84°. Not bad for late July.

The sign below reminds me of a time I drove into New York City on the George Washington bridge. They were filling in a pothole and a couple of men were shoveling tar and another dozen or so were standing around watching. SMH

I trust all have a great day.

Yes Sir,
I sit in many meetings regularly. In some meetings I listen to some gripe about how hard they've been working. Using that term "Working Hard"....

I have stated it to the groups many times when they get to that point. "Yeah, you work as hard as you can work and still sit in a chair."

A couple laugh but it goes off like the Calipari yelping dog statement to that Jerry character.

When she was young, my daughter used to get mad at her mother. I would tell her that I was going to go get the refrigerator and throw it at her mother. She would start laughing and the mad would be over.

Here's the t-shirt BBUK. I don't see how a jeune femme parisienne could be offended. It's just a geography lesson, and has nothing to do with the French refusing to help fight global Islamic terrorism...

I took my family on vacation to Navarre Beach, Fl in the late 1970's and they were filming Jaws II while we were there. The crew was staying at the same hotel we were at. It was a Holiday Inn Resort complete with a Dome that had a huge indoor pool and play area for kids.

Floating out in the Gulf of Mexico was a giant mechanical shark and it was fun watching them manipulate the thing. The crew was pretty friendly as well.

But the thing that really stuck with me that week of vacation was talking with a group of Tennessee football fans. They talked constantly about firing their football coach and bringing back Johnny Majors. Majors was at Pittsburg and winning big with Tony Dorsett and Tennessee was losing to Kentucky. It was a fun week.

I one time read an article (maybe on IMDB) that Gary Cooper would eat an entire pecan pie (think it was pecan) during breaks in filming.

Filming, whether it be TV/movies/or commercials is about like the road construction work noted above....sit around and wait. My 'ex' used to do some commercials and it would talk an entire day to do a 30 second spot. Never could figure out why it couldn't be done in 15 minutes.

Good story Sawnee. It's funny how a Kentucky win in a big game or over a rival can punctuate a moment and make it so much sweeter.

By the way, Jaws2 - a bit underrated. No, it wasn't as good as the original, but the franchise didn't fall off the cliff in that movie. Still worth a late night watch.

I'm watching a couple of episodes of Kentucky Afield. I love these shows.

I have watched KA for a long time, I was in Grand Rivers one time at the Candyland candy shop and when I walked out, there was Hope Carleton, he spoke to me first, then we just started talking about the show, super nice guy, it's like we were best buds!!!!!

It's amazing Kentucky Afield has been around continuously since 1953. KET really increased popularity around the state.

My son works from home. He has an office dedicated to the job. Here he is Tuesday during a crisis at work:

Some times it is an overnight job.

Go on a diet Sir.... Your misspelled words may be revealing a greater problem. Called fat-fingering. Not sure what foods are good for slimming the fingers... May be TMI but watch your diet...

I am working on it!!! I am down to 173 this morning!!!! My fat fingers are caused by arthritis, over 35 years of carpet work!!!! I am amazed that my knees are not shot, every thing else has worn out!!!

Very closely resembles my office Sir. I dress a little better. My Grandson insists on me wearing socks and my house shoes but other than that as George would say;

 

[Bert Higginbotha]

Like that ARMY hat!!!!!

Yeap, he put in 20 years, most of it with the Army guard. The first 8 years he was full time Florida Guard. Then the war in Iraq came along in 2002 so he was activated for 16 months. He got a job in Franklin, KY and moved from the Florida Guard to Tennessee Guard in 2005, than another job in Louisville so he then joined the Kentucky Guard to finish out his time.

He wanted to put in 30 but his wife did not want that.

Bless you Sir. I know what you are talking about. I did some serious work for a whole lot of years in "deplorable" situations but was always thankful as I was making a decent living and had peoples respect which I am positive you do. My hands are the same from the mud and muck I worked in for so long but they still function pretty decently so I cannot complain. My knee's too. My legs in general but I am walking and am real thankful for that!

 

[Bert Higginbotha]

I have two bad ankles, one bad knee and one bad hip. One artificial knee and one artificial hip. I was aiming to get the ankles and hip replaced last year but Covid-19 interfered and now I am not in the mood.

My son was in the Kentucky Guard in Louisville for a time until he transferred to Florida before they deployed him. It was right around that time frame!
