Gawker is a tough site. Ragers comment. Cynics. Bullies behind the anonymity of the keyboard. And racists. I personally believe anyone who judges someone else based on the color of their skin is a racist. You can dress it up or down or any way you want, but that's my belief. People hurl that hateful word way too…

Kinja just ate my reply. So I will try againn. No, but my son went one year in full Star Trek uniform. Don't judge. If you are going, are you dressing, and if so, details Please. I think it would be a damn blast. And, I am considered by the youngs who surround me to be pretty cool.

Read both replies below please. Kinja and phone killing me.

Typo city. I'm on a phone. BO argument. None. Zero. I love the Cars. Danced my ass off to them back in the day. Yes I did. No shame. Still would.

Bo arguments from me. Huge Cars fan as well. They need to get moving so there aren't so many made posthumously. The Cars were a big influence in their own genre. I'm not sure how well that area of music is rep'do. New Age is what we called it, but it's almost like that might mean something else now. What genre would…

I translated creado y regado and got made and watered. Hence, my confusion. I thought maybe it was a piss on you from LA thing and thought ok, but why. Hahaha. I picked that particular song because I was talking about my cig addiction and quitting tomorrow reference. But your point is good. Verdad. Truth. I do like…

Verdad

Edit. Have to admit I'm. But curious about what you said. I know what you said, just not really what you meant. But I'm not a native speaker, not fluent, in fact, very rusty. Hmmm

Me gusto mucho Si. Gracias El.

I don't know, but Swinging is a great song and THAT is a concert I would like to have been at if the crowd wouldn't freak me out. Big venues. Just no.

would that I had more stars to give. I have my set backed up on an iPod locked in my car. To be safe.

Genius and many times serious drug issues. I'm sure you know the well documented history of Clapton's drug years. Sadly, some musicians' better music comes from those years (Tom Petty, for example). By music, I mean lyrics and actual music, not necessarily performance. I guess if they live through their youth, they…

Agreed. This IMO was their best album. They weren't meant to last. Rick Wakefield was another, who seemed to breakout from Yes, another band I liked, with Tubular Bells. Call me a plebe, but I saw him at the Long defunct Warehouse in NOLA, and a full concert if Wakefield solo was too much. "The center cannot hold" for…

I know, right. Everyone I know is trying to guilt me into quitting. We all have our addictions.

So when you said it was absurdly romantic, I thought, how can romance be absurd. Then, I listened. Haha. You are so right. It is indeed unabashedly, absurdly romantic.

Memories. Hahaha. Caffeine amped. Audubon Park. Finals lurking. Yeah. Time. To. Run. To this in my head.

Great damn song. And Liz, what a stunner.

I think I was listening to Seals and Crofts and Traffic during the same years. Goooood Times!
