  1. I've always liked this one:
  2. You're welcome and hello Deborah! Back during his "hammer of the Gods" days, Robert could fill a pair of jeans like no other. Oh Deborah, I saw Zep in '73 too - I was 14 during the spring/summer of '73 when I saw them live. It wasn't my first time but it was a wonderful time - Robert and Jimmy were just the best! And, when Robert and Jimmy were together the combination of the two of them was even better - the air around them was so highly sexually-charged. Haha, it gets better! My daughter is studying physics this year. I have a feeling that these pics will come in handy for teaching that too!
  3. Hotplant! Nice to see this bulge thread again.
  4. Me too! It's hard not to be, isn't it? I suppose we should raise a toast tonight to the "Dark Lord" Talk to you later.
  5. Amen to all of that. Looks like you're fanning the flames tonight, my friend. Feel like 14 again?
  6. Given that my field is mathematics (and Husserl was a mathematician who became a philosopher), it wasn't an odd choice of reading material. It was assigned in a course on the philosophy of mathematics. During the part of the course where we examined mathematics and phenomenology, we read Husserl, Klein, and Hilbert. You mentioned that you are reading Husserl in Danish; are you familiar with the work of Ole Skovmose? I don't want to derail this thread so feel free to email me.
  7. Very cool Dzldoc! I saw the Beatles too, here: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tQugzbsHeGg I still have my program with my ticket stub stapled inside. I was as high up in the nosebleed section as one could be. My husband thinks it's funny to tell people that I saw the Beatles in concert and then leave them wondering how old I am. I was 7, and the guest of a friend and her mother.
  8. For Christmas, I bought my husband: The Rise of Theodore Roosevelt and Theodore Rex: 1901-1909 both authored by Edmund Morris. There is one more book to come in this trilogy but it hasn't yet been published. Otto, where were you when I was in grad school and struggling through Husserl's Early Writings in the Philosophy of Logic and Mathematics (in English, no less)? Seriously, though, with respect to mathematics, I did like how Husserl's phenomenology tried to bridge the gap between logic and psychology and explain the relationship between the nature of mathematics and mathematical understanding.
  9. Hotplant, don't know if you're around today but I immediately thought of you when I saw this pic Hell, I got a bit excited when I saw it Got to run, I'll be back later.
  10. Thanks for that great Audioslave clip! I blasted it. "...had the whole show..." One of my favorite Robert quotes.
  11. Hey Hotplant! I thought as much so I didn't want to bombard you with messages. Hope everything is OK. It happens - especially when the concerts are as great as these were - just enjoy it while it lasts.
  12. I really enjoyed hearing this NPR piece (link and transcript below) this morning. It certainly struck a chord with me as I first heard the Stones when I was in kindergarten, have been attending their concerts for decades, and have never - in all those years - stopped listening to or loving their music. http://www.npr.org/templates/story/story.p...toryId=98541050
  13. 83°F weather. Driving down to get the mail and finding a Zep-related Christmas gift and card from one of the "Zep dolls" Thanks sweetie! Through an old friend, being introduced to and meeting a woman who has had experiences similar to mine (although in a different decade) and spending the better part of an hour having a great discussion with her. It's the weekend before Christmas!
  14. Happy 65th Birthday Keith. Thanks for the music and the memories. Still love you.
  15. Hotplant, I'm not sure where the person who emailed these to me found these pics - or what they are for - but they look like pro shots.
  16. 58°F Humidity: 83% Dense fog The cool air and high humidity are a nice change from hot and dry. We live on a hill and have been shrouded in dense fog for most of the day. Our house is not visible from below and when a work truck arrived here this morning, the driver said that negotiating our driveway was "like approaching Frankenstein's castle."
  17. Hotplant, in addition to the hands, I always loved a glimpse of a guy's hip area too.
  18. 84°F Current: Clear Wind: S at 10 mph Humidity: 30% We live here for many reasons - the ability to be poolside, bikini-clad, and working on laptop in the middle of December is one of them.
  19. The sky down here has been incredibly clear lately, making viewing of heavenly bodies, even with the naked eye, fantastic. The recent combination of the crescent moon, Jupiter, and Saturn was amazing - very bright and crystal clear. The nearly full moon last night was brilliant - it illuminated our entire house, reflected down into the pool, and made walking on paths outside possible - even late at night.
  20. I'm sitting with my daughter, trying to review her chemistry project as I'm posting these so I'm a bit distracted - not by the chemistry, but by the pics.
  21. I think he was too, Slave. You could see his spirit in his eyes, the kind of person he was. He must have been a wonderful friend and family man.
  22. AMAZONIC, my dear, you just can't resist fanning the flames, can you? And, we love you for doing so. aw, ILJP, it's that glimpse of Jimmy's leg in that pic that evokes some of the best memories.
  23. Aw, PlantPage, I agree with what my good friend ILJP just said - of course, you would have been welcome to join us back then and we would have had a fantastic time together.
