Wood 's reaction?

What's your reaction to this?

 

[Mike Bulgakov]

Jokes in poor taste abounded after the tragic news of Natalie’s death by drowning. One punch line involved the flotation properties of the material used to build Heyerdahl’s trans-Pacific ready raft.

Marloes prefers ducks for flotation.

I will go down with this ship!

Lana Del Rey's amusingly dark double entendre first stage name, May Jailer, comes to mind.

Out with a bang . . .

I'm gonna [barely] try to entice @stringertom to drop by Music Game with,
She's So Perfect - 5 SOS [since he's no fan of 1D]

Fail.

 

[Vcore89]

Fail.

Where's the nearest cave to crawl into?

 

[stringertom]

Fail better; try again; fail again.

Maybe one day when I’m on online via computer but any thread laden with vids doesn’t navigate easily on iPhone.

 

[Vcore89]

Failure is a bruise, not a tattoo.

 

[stringertom]

Tattoo U would be a great place to learn the skills to decorate the flesh but Tattoo You was a classic Rolling Stones album released 38 years ago. It included a very appropriate song to open a concert, entitled Start Me Up.

Starting all over again is gonna be hard, so hard.

 

[Mike Bulgakov]

 

[stringertom]

I’m starting all over, learning to fly with a lust for life and willing to take it as it comes. It will actually be pretty exciting, starting in “two to four business days” from now according to the coolest Mr. James that I met with yesterday.

 

[Mike Bulgakov]

Lebron James?

 

[Vcore89]

LeBron James [and Melo], talk about the evolution of style.

 

[Mike Bulgakov]

Evolution, devolution, or revolution of style?

 

[Vcore89]

Style me pretty and hippie.

[stringertom]

Lebron James?

Nope, I wasn’t selling vintage athletic jerseys out of a car double parked car at an airport and my name isn’t two first names, now possibly the most influential sports agent of his era.

My Mr. James appeared as though he might like The Dead more than Dread Zeppelin.

Wasn’t Leo Tolstoy the original Russian hippie tennis player, long before you had to be a Dane to have the beard and long locks to match???

Never ran into any Russians in Copenhagen's hippie enclave Christiania, but I have been there with Swedes, though not hippie-looking Swedes named Björn or Elsa.

hippietom never wore a headband in hippie days but now swears by Halo brand headbands and skull caps with their perspiration channeling strips redirecting salty moisture away from sensitive eyes.

 

[Mike Bulgakov]

Sensitive eyes must be alert when close to Spanish shrubbery or Pepsi Cola.

Have You Seen Her?

I have met Maria and I think her eyes are more greenish brown.

And gold? At first it would appear in shades of green to light brown and eventually to gold?

Golden Slumbers

Fools Gold

Gold Standard Model

dgold standard operating procedure involves being universally nasty to the general public, employees, landlords, and personnel at doctors’ offices. Add in a dash of vitriol periodically when visiting Whole Foods and you pretty much have the entire package.

Basil Fawlty

 

[Vcore89]

Perhaps one of the more famous literary device example of faulty parrallelism:

In Shakespeare's Julius Caesar, the noblest [sic] of Caesar's friends, Brutus, tried to cajole the masses as to the necessity to assainate his dear friend, ''it’s not that I loved Caesar less, but that I loved Rome more.''

Astigmatism correction exercises.

 

[Mike Bulgakov]

Bad behavior correction & classroom exercises at boarding school . . .

Everyone from home
Says that you're so cool
Come on, everybody
To the boarding school
Everyone from town
Says that you're so cool
Come on, get down
To the boarding school

Cheap trailer trash and everyone knows it
But she got a great ass and she knows how to show it
With American flags on each little finger
You're crashing on Wall Street
While I'm blowing up as a singer

If you wanna get that scholarship
Yale's not a problem, let's solve it
Educated in the language of doin' it
Get down like your tutor taught you to
And do it

I continue to hold on to my memories of my one-evening sampling of Marina Del Rey, a man-made Pacific pleasure craft harbor halfway between LAX and Santa Monica. “The King’s Marina” just doesn’t roll off the tongue quite as smoothly as the chosen name by Anglo land developers in LA’s golden age of expansion coinciding with easier migration and the birth of the motion picture industry in the early part of the 20th century.

 

[Mike Bulgakov]

Just north of Marina Del Rey is Venice Beach,

and a little south down the coast is Manhattan Beach, where Quentin Tarantino once worked at Video Archives (closed in the 1990s) on Sepulveda Boulevard.

Can you tell me what QT’s favorite color is in Reservoir Dogs? Hint: it has moar two dew with Sabooshsian complexion than his favorite wardrobe colors!

To be near the San Diego Bageler, Lana Del Rey bought a house in San Diego's North County. When I visit Del Mar, I sometimes go to the Lotus Cafe in Encinitas, which is not far from Lou's Records.

Mike has a fixation on LDR that I find hard to understand but to each their own. At least he is not as fixated as JollyDolly is on the SDB.

It's a passing thing as I met her when I knew nothing about her. She didn't make much of an impression, but I decided to learn about her, and realized that she has an interesting, brooding muse. She has a strange, old soul muse, but generally it's not my kind of music. I am intrigued by turbulent souls.

Riders on the storm
Riders on the storm
Into this house we're born
Into this world we're thrown
Like a dog without a bone
An actor out on loan

Riders on the storm
Riders on the storm
Riders on the storm
Riders on the storm
Riders on the storm

I am a turbulent soul right now, probably because I’m used to being a man of action out of necessity to survive. That survival instinct is temporarily suspended as I ponder what is the best decision to put me back in action in the best way to be happy while making a bit of the dough ray me to make a better life.

When I find myself in times of trouble, Mother Mary comes to me
Speaking words of wisdom, “let it be”
And in my hour of darkness, she is standing right in front of me
Speaking words of wisdom, “let it be”

I once read that the Beatles felt that soon after they released an album, the Rolling Stones would release an album that stole from them.

Side 1
1. "Gimme Shelter"
2. "Love In Vain"
3. "Country Honk"
4. "Live With Me"
5. "Let It Bleed"

Side 2
1. "Midnight Rambler"
2. "You Got the Silver"
3. "Monkey Man"
4. "You Can’t Always Get What You Want"

The Replacements thought it would be amusing to borrow a title from the Beatles.

Let It Be

 

[stringertom]

The Replacements is a film about fielding a football team during a season when pro players go on strike. It stars Keanu Reeves and Gene Hackman and was directed by Howard Deutch, who might be considered a “replacement” for George McFly in real life...he is married to actress Lea Thompson, who played Marty McFly’s mother Lorraine in the BTTF franchise.

 

[Vcore89]

Marty McFly's Iconic Power-Lace Shoes On 'Back To The Future', and of course the DeLorean.

The gull wing door design of the DeLorean was certainly not the first instance of granting personal access to an automobile via an upward hinging portal but it certainly became more familiar to the general public through release of BTTF.
