^^^ There's already several pictures of me here. There's only so much ugliness the forum can stand...I don't want to make people sick.

Who dat? Who dat? Good win for the Saints! Getting ready to watch Dallas @ Philadelphia on Fox 11 now.

Great interview with Lemmy. Thanks for sharing, zepscoda. Elvis was great and historically and culturally important...BUT Chuck Berry will always be the "King of Rock and Roll" to me. Motorhead was a great little band, too. LOUD as fuck, too. One of the top 5 or 10 loudest bands I've ever seen.

^^^ Cheers back at ya'! Now you're talking! Great movie...although not for everybody. Definitely not for kids. Took my godson who just turned 17 and loves all the horror/gory movies, and even though he liked it, he was sort of creeped out, he said. Hey Ady...can I interest you in a KFC drumstick?

I'll be seeing Barbara Cook soon, too. Tonight, though, it's Babs! Sunday Nov. 11: Barbra Streisand @ Hollywood Bowl

Only if you're a Cream acolyte/apologist. It's not better than "Celebration Day". It's not even better than the two Rolling Stones concert documentaries I saw the other night: "Charlie Is My Darling" and "Some Girls Live In Texas".

^^^ You're welcome, jb. Ady, your image in your last post comes out as a question mark. You may need to repost. Really interested in seeing "Chasing Mavericks"; anybody see this yet?

Yes, the Magic is back! We've missed you, oh learned one!

Magic's avatar is the painting "Marianna in the Moated Grange" by John Everett Millais.

^^^ No shit...golfing in the UK in November? I didn't think that was possible. I am up early to go hiking in Griffith Park for a couple hours so I can be back in time for football.

I have no idea...since her avatar name is 'black-country-woman', I thought maybe she was from the Black Country.

No Peacocks ledded1? Too bad...they're pretty terrific. But hell, Jack White in any format is worth seeing. The guy rips the shit out of his guitar.

Du bist sehr schön. Are you really from the Black Country of England?

Late supper after work. Classic Cobb Salad: Turkey, bacon, blue cheese, avocado, tomatoes, green onions, hard-boiled egg, lettuce.

Both "The Wrestler" and "Hobo With A Shotgun" are good, although their approach and intent are entirely different. I thought I had posted something about "Hobo With A Shotgun" last year when it was released, but the search function didn't turn up anything and there is no way I'm scrolling thru the back pages to find it...or "The Wrestler" post. Suffice to say Rutger Hauer is a hobo...and he's got a shotgun...and he's pissed. Look out! Blood, guts and F-U-N, FUN ensue!

^^^ I want that shirt!!!

^^^ I'm just waiting for the day you have Popeye's chicken for breakfast.

^^^ CJW, A & W should pay you for product placement.

Remember the Bruce Springsteen song, "57 Channels and Nothing On"? Just saw two great Rolling Stones films at the American Cinematheque tonight in Hollywood! Sound was cranking and the screen big! Will post more in the movie thread...or the Rolling Stones thread. http://www.americancinemathequecalendar.com/content/the-rolling-stones-charlie-is-my-darling-ireland-some-girls-live-in-texas

I'll pm you later. Amen sister!

^^^ Another CLASSIC! "Do you expect me to talk?" "No Mr. Bond. I expect you to die." Jimmy Page played on the soundtrack sessions, too!

No, not like the Spanish Tortilla or the Italian Frittata. This was an American or French-style omelette, where the eggs are folded over the filling. The mashed potatoes, cheese and bacon are all tucked inside, with a few leftover bacon crumbles for the top. And the tall glass was my own. It's Friday...time for French Toast!!!

^^^ "In Cold Blood" was the first true crime book I read, too, jb. The movie creeped me out when I saw it as a kid with my family at the Drive-In. Later, I began to appreciate it as much for Conrad Hall's exquisite B & W cinematography as for the performances and script. There is a scene towards the end that any lover of photography will recognize as pure poetry. It is when Robert Blake is talking as he's looking out the window as it is raining outside. The reflection of the rain drops hitting the window against Blake's face gives him the appearance of weeping. It's a haunting moment. There's a giant poster display of various James Bond movies in the lobby of the Arclight Hollywood theatre. It's somewhere between 40-50 feet high.

I was born in 1962. I have not known a world without the Beatles, Rolling Stones, or James Bond. Eatlier this year, to celebrate the 50th anniversary of "Dr. No", the American Cinematheque screened every James Bond movie made...from 1962's "Dr. No" to 2008's "Quantum of Solace". I didn't see every one, mainly concentrating on the '60s-70s. Saw a couple of the Pierce Brosnan's too, and was struck by how much a cartoon they had become. They reminded me of the Joel Schumacher Batman movies. What was a surprise, given how much the fans rejected him at the time, was how much I loved the lone George Lazenby film, "On Her Majesty's Secret Service". This is one Bond movie that really holds up and hits you on an emotional level. Of course, it helps that it also stars Diana Rigg(Emma Peel from "The Avengers" tv show), one of the few actresses to hold their own in a Bond movie amongst the boys and toys. Poor George Lazenby...he was cursed by having the impossible task of following Sean Connery, but his Bond is very human and interesting in his own write. I think you'll be very surprised, Ady, when you get to "On Her Majesty's Secret Service" in your Bond-o-thon. Meanwhile, the latest Daniel Craig Bond opens tomorrow...and I have already had several people who saw an advance screening of "Skyfall" tell me it is the... Best. Bond. Movie. Ever. Well, following the disappointing "Quantum of Solace", I have no doubt it is an improvement over that film. But the best Bond film of all-time? That seems a stretch. I do want to see it as the trailer looks good:
