Autumnal Thoughts........

[jamespowers]

Oh we don't drink Northern drinks down here.
I'm taking a chance by drinking wine instead of beer, whiskey, or shine.

Honestly, the drink does look good.
I'll have to check it out when the weather turns colder.

I like some of Devo's stuff, along with Flock of Seagulls.
But as the 80's rolled on, I was into Metal.
Iron Maiden as one example, but honestly they weren't heavy.
At the same time I could pull out a Who CD, or Robert Plant solo CD.
My tastes vary.
Of course Techo, that was a mistake.
Dern near made myself deaf with too much wattage.
Oh sure, it was neat to see how high you could bounce a quarter on the top of the car, when the bass hit, but now I'm paying for it, at least in one ear.
And that would be the side I have my wife sit on.

No such thing as it being a Northern drink. It has a long history with Jerry Thomas the world famous bartender of the time. He was the bartender who started it all with his published mixed concotions. RIP Jerry(1830-1885) Although he claimed to invent the drink and publicized it very well at the time, the drink was probably around long before he was. His recipe is still THE one to use though.

This time of year is PURRRrrrfect for being a black cat:

If only I could get El Principe Luis to sit on a pumpkin like that.

Aw, leave poor Justin alone.

HA! No, he's too busy making helmets of some nerdy character I've never heard of.

:rofl:

:rofl:

Now! Now! You mean sparkly helmets for sparkly nerdy characters.

 

[jamespowers]

Which also reminds me that Blackie has to be kept in over Halloween. Black cat and all that stuff you know. :doh:

Yeah, let's think about that...

Superhero movies are making hundreds of millions of dollars every time one comes out. And 3 of the top grossing movies of all time are based on comics. (Another two are Star Wars, and number one is Avatar.)

Comic books have been around since 1933, and are still going strong. Sales run in excess of seven hundred million dollars a year.

Tens of thousands of people go to conventions all over the world, and quite a lot of them dress up in costumes. Oh, and a lot of those people in costume....they're doing it to raise money and awareness for charity.

Every major network and film studio is scrambling to get the right to "nerdy" projects or have already acquired them. Why? Because there is a bigger audience for it than ever before.

So, who's really the nerdy one here?

All of this reminds me that I have to look into getting some Marvel stock soon.

I know, right? And this doesn't even take into account merchandizing money.

Marvel has been doing well. It would have been better to invest last year though.....oh well....:eusa_doh:

And all of that takes us back to another thread here, doesn't it?


I wonder whether Hollywood is considering a project set in Hogan's Alley?

You know I'm being sarcastic, right?

Rap it G! :rofl:
These are the tales
The Hippie tales
These are the hippie tales that I tell so well

I met this hippie her name was Beth
She stunk so bad she smelled like death.

:eusa_clap

 

[vintageTink]

That probably ain't all that hippie Beth smelled like.

Frazier had a light dusting if snow tonight.

As for Miley, well the Autumn reaper will get her soon enough.

THAT would be something worth watching!

That's Principe Don Luis Silvestro de Catalona

Nice to meet him.

If only I could get El Principe Luis to sit on a pumpkin like that.

I saw folks who trained their cats to do their "thing" in a human toilet. Surely you can train yours to "sit".

OK.
LET us think about it:
he who knows all the statistics about the comic books & superhero movies - he's the nerd in the room.
