I am more interested in that large mouth.I really like those sunglasses. That was the first thing I saw when I looked at this picture. A pair of Aviator Sunglasses is on my Christmas wish list.
Should be watching Brew-Baker with a beer and soft pretzels in hand to go along with the theme.Good morning from ATX. Currently 42°F, clear with a light wind. We may hit 58°F. Great weather for a long walk.
Game comes on at 5:15 pm ET today. I look for a tough outing.
Wife watching Brubaker. Nothing like a 43 year-old prison movie to start your Saturday morning. Ugh.
Wishing happiness and health for all our fellow D-League members.
Go Bearcats
Morning Legionnaires!
29° this morning with moderate winds. High to be in the mid 40's.
Rooting for the Cincinnati Bearcats this morning (noontime for you eastern time zone folks) as they take on Looserville in the Wasabi Bowl. Waaaaasaaaaaaaabi! What are you doing? Watching the game and having a Bud and rooting for the Bearcats. True, True.
You guys enjoy the day and by the way:
IT'S GAME DAY!
Last night we were watching Holiday Inn and my wife and I commented on how beautiful Marjorie Reynolds was. And the shape those women were back then. You had to really look hard to find a fat one. They were just gorgeous from head to toe.
I still buy albums on a regular basis. Probably have close to 1,000.Only the old folks will understand this. I still have some of them

Most of those entertainers while acting and singing were also well versed in the dance which required a lot of exercise/practice.Last night we were watching Holiday Inn and my wife and I commented on how beautiful Marjorie Reynolds was.

Yes I do. 2 of them in fact. I bought the first one in the 70s then more recently a 200-gram LP made from the master tape. I probably have 7 or 8 Beatles albums including a Sgt. Peppers from the first pressing.
I don't even think about dancing, but attended The Mel Tillis show in Branson after Roger Miller died. Mel and Roger broke into the business together in Minnie Pearl's band and were good friends. The second half of Mel's show was a tribute to Roger and his musical Big River. Mel said he lost 30 pounds preparing and doing the dancing the tribute required.
Only the older folks will understand this. I still have some of them
Any luck in the oyster beds?
You are a collector UK82.
I am in the same boat. I have a very nice collection of vinyl records, some going back to the mid 1950's. When cassettes and CD's came out I would do the same as you Bert. Record them and put up the vinyl record. Never to be played again. I have a George Jones and a Johnny Cash that has never had the plastic wrapping removed and has remained unplayed for 40 or 50 years. So like you I have some beauties. Mine are mostly Bluegrass and country and a lot of gospel my parents had.You are a collector UK82.
I worked with a bunch of purist jazz and rock guys. They only believed in vinyl, tube type amps et.al. My brother in law had a massive collection of vinyl. He played bluegrass, rock, country, jazz etc. Excellent at a guitar and he always had to tune the instruments in his band because he could hear all the bad notes. James Steen was special.
Because of them I was late getting into CD's, but I never got rid of my vinyl. Plus my kids do like you; they are going more and more to vinyl. But I don't even have my turn table hooked up.
I used to take my new vinyl records and play them through once. Then I would record them next and store the vinyl never to be used again unless I screwed up the copied CD or tape. So I have some close to virgin vinyl.
I am not a purist as my hearing is not good (life time of allergies and flying small planes when my ears were congested), so I can't qualify as a judge of good musical reproduction, so a CD sounds as good as vinyl to my ear; however, I can tell the difference between a full uncompressed CD versus an MP3.
Being that I can't hear well has saved me a lot of money.
Your BIL and I would have gotten along famously. I'm also a tube guy. Unfortunately my hearing is also on the poor side Bert and getting worse. It's a cruel fate for an audio enthusiast like myself. Surprisingly I have better luck with headphones nowadays.You are a collector UK82.

It's definitely not easy on the eyes.
