  1. I just got the news via other members of the LZ.com family ... I'm saddened beyond belief...from that moment we started taking about Pilates last year we had great exchanges via PM....we were kindered spirits of sorts and even spoke about a day in the future when she would visit me in Italy or me coming to NOLA if RP played there...I sent her a PM not too long ago but I figured she might have been busy but her silence during the re-releases was strange, as she was looking forward to them. It's amazing how you can feel you've made a friend even though you've not met in the flesh.

    So long, dear friend Brett...may you create three hours of lunacy every night behind St. Peter's gates. You will be missed and thank you for having been in my life, albeit briefly, albeit online, and thank you LZ community for allowing me to have "met" you.

  2. Not everyone likes pedicures and painted toe nails, myself included.

    Don't ever come down here, because you'll see lots of unpainted toe nails in sandals and thongs (flip flops). Thongs are our summer essential and are worn everywhere.

    Not saying get your nails painted but at least put some cream on the heels and do something about fungus - it's not very nice to show off to the world. My dear friends in Oz have told me that people also walk barefoot and go to work wearing flip flops. So yes, I'm prepared for when I go there next year.
  3. Obviously I would be old enough to see LZ at either MSG or the Nassau Coliseum; alas I was more preoccupied with cartoons than anything else!

    The age I would love to have lived in is the Art Nouveau period (1880-1920 ca.). Also the late sixties; I was around by then but in a playpen watching Popeye and Captain Kangaroo. I miss the 70s - though I was a child I remember them vividly. Thank goodness for YouTube which has all those awesome commercials from that decade.

  4. Hi lif - thanks for your comments .. and his advertising poster is an awesome discovery... but what an appalling man. Hope they are bringing in all their big guns and channelling the spirit of Peter Grant.

    Oh if Peter Grant were alive to see this travesty...

  5. The ultimate irony of this total waste of paper is the "lawyer's" signature - adding a star, really? No wonder he risks being disbarred. The wording is dreadful to say the least, considering that this is supposed to be a legal document - it looks as if someone went on the Internet, pastiched together what ever s/he could find, and presented a case. I hope it gets thrown out.

  6. The whole suit - and the use of that font - is absolutely shameless; in some legal jurisdictions perhaps the use of that kind of cheap but flamboyant provocation might backfire. Wishful thinking perhaps. (On a more cheerful note - who knew that Jimmy and JPJ shared the same postcode ? What an opportunity for collaboration ! And I'd heard it was Robbie Williams moving in next door to JP.... )

    How have you been, T&B?

    Yep, that outright use of their font might backfire on them - is it perhaps that they subconsciously KNOW they've got a lost cause on their hands?

    BTW, I always thought Jonesy lived out in the country.
