Kudos to Domino’s for at least trying. However, any non-professional infrastructure nerd knows that chip n sealing the holes are little more than a band aid in the short-medium run. Take the whole road down to the bedrock and rebuild it properly.

Yep. Ain’t nothing like knowing you can still make the strings twang or (my) sticks bounce with proficiency alongside your old friends.
Leaving Ducks Deluxe off this list? Glaring omission, people. Parsons’ “Grievous Angel”, however, is one of my all time faves. Got me following Emmy Lou as well.
I’ve never seen such a Lemmon-Brando thing. Both great, both different.
Audrey Hepburn was a terrific actress. However, I’v always listed her and Marilyn Monroe as THE two post 1945 icons when it came to looks, style and fashion for women. Despite the insurgencies from a number of talented women later on and into this century, those two ladies still reign (to an extent) where “the look”…
Excellent piece. One of my faves of this genre along with “Pleasantville”. That Carrey was snubbed for a Best Actor Oscar nomination is still beyond me.
Or put a bullet in Walter Pigeon’s rifle.

Almost as low as his self-serving Memorial Day tweet. Boo-effing-hoo, thin skinned asshole.
Hunting for the boys from Brazil in 2018? Isn’t he about 30-40 years too late?
Good analysis. Before rock went and scandalized FM, those stations were calling themselves “the good music station”. The crossovers were significant and, as people like Ben Fong-Torres have pointed out in books about radio from that era, the fragmentation began later in the 1960s. It’s true that by 1970-71 prog rock,…
Forgot to add that in 1966 the still tender ears of American teens weren’t ready for the sounds of Captain Beefheart. That took a few years more.
8 of those top 20 still remain classics. “Nowhere Man”, “Paperback Writer” and “Yellow Sub” didn’t make that list. AV’s list left out “Sunny Afternoon”, Music Machine’s proto-punk “Talk-Talk”, and the Seeds’ “Pushin’ Too Hard”. The Small Faces would score a year later with “Itchycoo Park”. Masekela hit #1 in 1968 with…
About who? Ricky Gervais or Donald Trump?
I like Ricky. But yet another series with a nasty lead character for 30 minutes at a time? We get that every day from the White House so why the redundancy?.
This week our Christianist VP endorsed convicted criminal Joe Arpaio for US Senate, naming him a “tireless champion ... (of) the rule of law”. If you’re for impeaching his boss, be very careful what you wish for.
Giuliani? He’s perfect for the Dotard In Chief. Since 2002 this guy would fuck up a wet dream.
With the movies you saw or yourself for going to so many of them?
As a friend pointed out to me, wheee is “9 to 5"?
So is “The Ref”.
