  1. I hadn't noticed the makeup ... I was focused on .... her hair ..
  2. Beautiful in B&W.... without the gloss and the makeup..... You need to get over the gloss and the makeup.... which won't mean a thing, when you're in bed! Didn't you know that yet ? ? ?
  3. I recently saw the 1927 Masterpiece "THE GENERAL" with the great train chase. It's obvious that the art of fliming was perfected even before the talkies got good. Buster Keaton is fabulous in it.
  4. A sense of calm and peace came over me while viewing this picture..
  5. Marijuana legalization, should we do it? Why yes, of course..... In fact, I'm for a complete reversal..... Pot Legal... and alcohol illegal..... It's time to put those "bubbas" in the "system"... behind bars.... Outside Looking In.... Inside Looking Out
  6. They are cutting and edging the grounds today where I live. It's a FUCKING National Holiday (US Memorial Day Observed).... Don't they have anything better to do ? ? ? ? Oh, right.... I guess it's not a Holdiay from where they are from (South of the Border, I'm sure!!)
  7. I agree..... That movie was totally satisfying to me. I have not wanted to see another "car shase" movie since. The Fast & Furious movies have not gotten me out to see them yet. I really don;t go and see many movies. The new ones have so many disapointments for all they are cracked up to be. The word "greatness" has been greatly bastardized, especially when it comes to modern movie going. The bar was lowered a long time ago it seems. There is, I suppose good 'crap' out there.... but.... Greatness.... few and far between. That's what I like to spend my money on .... Greatness...... theo other is not necessary!

  10. It'sa all relative...... Many movies out today are retreads of movies and television shows that have been out for decades. Midnight movies often show movies from the 60's and the 70's. So, going to the the movies can and does often mean a trip down memory lane. Get Over It Yukon ! !
  11. It is known that Russia intentionally allowed the Germans to wreak havoc as they entered Russia, as Russia wasn't endeared to some of the ethinic groups that were in the path of the advancing Germans. In other words.... the Russians let the Germans do some genocide work for them....
  12. You know.... this new ST movie heralds a whole "New" Franchise, according to Paramount vice chariman Rob Moore as revealed in Entertainment Weekly: http://www.ew.com/ew/article/0,,20233502_1,00.html Since the box office peak of the original film series in 1986 (Star Trek IV: The Voyage Home), the Trek brand has devolved into a near-irrelevant cultural joke, likely to inspire giggles and unprintable curses from even its most ardent supporters. After a succession of contrived TV spin-offs (the last, UPN's Star Trek: Enterprise, mustered only a feeble 2 million viewers in its final season) and mediocre features based on the best of the bunch (Star Trek: The Next Generation), even people who'd built their entire careers around Trek could see the writing on the wall. ''Star Trek,'' says Leonard Nimoy, ''had run its course.'' ''Every studio in town is searching for these kinds of franchises, so it was important for us to reboot,'' says Brad Weston, Paramount's president of production. ''But we needed a clean, fresh take on this thing.'' Creatively, he (J.J. Abrams) was engaged by the possibility of a Star Trek movie ''that grabbed me the way Star Wars did.'' That meant a bigger budget and better special effects than any previous Trek film, plus freedom to reinvent the mythos as needed. ''We have worldwide aspirations and we need to broaden [Trek's] appeal,'' says Weston.
  13. Probably Led Zeppelin..... Or Devo, if they through first. If money was no object.... yeah I'd go to more shows.... But I'll just kindly live in the past memories of what was, and what will never be..

  15. I think Ann Wilson has one of the most incredible female rock voices in the business. When Ann decides to belt one out.... it's something ! ! Love those old Heart songs.... Even It Up Mistral Wind (Live) Barracuda Straight On Crazy On You Magic Man Heartless Bebe Le Strange
  16. I wish there was a post a picture of yourself thread that could only have a picture of you, with no dogs or cats or squirels or brothers or sisters or neighbors or aunts or uncles, etc..... You get the idea.... a thread for you and no one but you. But that's what I would want... since we have a thread for pictures of you and everyone else you know. No big deal... it's just a suggestion.
  17. Swine flu: information leaflets to be sent to every house in Britain 10:37AM BST 29 Apr 2009 http://www.telegraph.co.uk/health/swine-fl...in-Britain.html The Department of Health said that the leaflets will be sent out next week to the 25 million households in the country. It follows reports that more than 30 million face masks are being ordered by the Health Department, despite concerns the masks do little to prevent the spread of flu among the general public. The H1N1 virus (swine flu) is not thought to be nearly as dangerous as the H5N1 strain (bird flu) and if caught early on should cause little more discomfort than the normal flu symptoms. Anyone who feels flu-like symptoms and may have been in contact with someone who has been to one of the infected areas, is also advised to stay at home, drink plenty of water and take paracetamol. To try and avoid the spread, people are asked to cover their mouths when coughing, discard of tissues promptly and wash their hands frequently. ----------------------------------------------------------- It's amazing to me that otherwise sane and intelligent people, under these circumstances, when sneezing, do not have the common courtesy to cover their their fucking faces, instead, just let'ner rip!
  18. http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/americas/8021827.stm WHO flu expert Dr Keiji Fukuda: "Containment is not a feasible operation" The swine flu virus first detected in Mexico can no longer be contained and countries should focus on mitigating its effects, a top UN official said. World Health Organization deputy chief Keiji Fukuda was speaking as the WHO raised its alert level to four, or two steps short of a full pandemic. UN food inspectors are going to Mexico to examine reports that industrial pig farms were the source of the outbreak. The number of probable deaths from the virus there has risen to 152. The US, Canada, Spain and Britain have confirmed cases of the virus, but not deaths have been reported outside Mexico. 'Not inevitable' Alert level four means the virus is showing a sustained ability to pass from human to human and is able to cause community-level outbreaks. Mr Fukuda said this was a "significant step towards pandemic influenza" but a pandemic should not be considered inevitable. WHO PANDEMIC ALERT PHASES Phase 1: No viruses circulating among animals causing infections in humans Phase 2: Animal influenza virus causes infection in humans, and is considered potential pandemic threat Phase 3: Influenza causes sporadic cases in people, but no significant human-to-human transmission Phase 4: Verified human-to-human transmission able to cause community-level outbreaks. Significant increase in risk of a pandemic Phase 5: Human-to-human transmission in at least two countries. Strong signal pandemic imminent Phase 6: Virus spreads to another country in a different region. Led Zeppelin announces World Tour Global pandemic under way
