In a gadda da vida ,baby

didn't Hezbollah blow up our Marine barracks in, what, 1982?

...I can't see paying $10.00 for a movie that's loaded with commercials after sitting through 30 minutes of commercials before the movie even starts.

Didn't see "Flight 93", won't see this one, either.

... from San Mateo to San Francisco. It cost me $25.00 per month for an unlimited-use ticket. At the time, it was far cheaper for me to do that than drive. At any rate, I used to love taking the train, and I read lots of great books during the 40-minute commute.

Wish I could use public trans where I live now.

And I miss that Southern Pacific train!!!!!

Maybe a bottle. Or three.

I used to own (or,rather, WAS owned by), a Welsh terrier.

He was smart. And weird, too. Hated other dogs, and most people, and fire trucks, but got along real well with the neighbor's cat. Just adored that cat.

Do you own a Welsh??

Wonder who it'll be next week?

...to take classes in wood-shop or metal work. Any school district trying that crap now would be sued to the skies, and rightfully so!!

Actually, whatever one chooses for a career, having some marketable skill in addition is a bonus.
And it helps to have some knowledge and experience with various power tools. I've got a neighbor who has picked up a bit of extra $$ by wielding a mean chain saw (on trees, that is!!)

...wish I'd learned to be a plumber! They're always needed and can't be outsourced!!! Maybe we need to revive the concept of public tech high schools. There's a tech school near me, and the kids that go through 4 years there come out doing very good work, but it seems this school is moving away from classic tech school stuff (construction trades, etc., )and moving into things like software design that can, and will, be outsourced. Plumbers, electricians, RNs and Nurse Assistants will always be needed!!

HEAD ON-ATTACH DIRECTLY TO THE MOUTH...HEAD ON-ATTACH DIRECTLY TO THE MOUTH...HEAD ON-ATTACH DIRECTLY ,,,,ok, you get the idea...

sorry, it's over 90-degreesF. and humidity is even worse. Melted brain!!!

It will be interesting to see how this plays out.

If all this is true,(a BIG IF, at this point) my concern is more with the police coverup which is a far worse thing than Mel's tirade (which, if it did happen, is truly awful, and stupid on his part).

I doubt this will hurt Mel's standing in Hollywood, for after all, self-admitted child molester Roman Polansky is lionized, and repeatedly hired, by the Hollywood elite.(In case no one remembers, Polansky admitted under oath to drugging and molesting an underage girl).If the creeps in H-wd think they can make a buck, they'll hire anyone.

If Mel never made ANY anti-semitic comments, and that portion of the story IS made up, some people will never accept that because they have their own agenda concerning Mel.

As I said, it will be interesting to see how this plays out.
