Re: All Over But The Sailing (h/t NYTimes)
The best part is that there were more Australians on board Oracle than Americans - including the skipper. (A fact that will really irk my Kiwi friends, but not as much as the monumental CHOKE!)

Re: Is It Time for a Second "Greatest Hits" Album?
I can't see there being too many of us around wait for the 2113 songs - maybe we will all be heads in jars like Futurama?Bicycle Bill wrote: Maybe it's time for Jimmy to do a "Greatest Hits Vol. 2 (1985-2113)" or a second box set ...

Re: Floribbean shrimp/island rice recipe
May I enquire about one of the ingredients?
What exactly is instant rice?
Is it pre-cooked or something?

Thanks for the memories, Slim.
I will raise a glass of Bundy this evening, in your honour.

Re: I can't believe it has been ten years
He should have a few videos out there...
Over 100 albums in 60 odd years of recording.
All of those albums were with one label. EMI.
You don't get that kind of loyalty from a label anymore
(Unless you own the label I guess)

I can't believe it has been ten years
September 19 marks the tenth anniversary of the passing of David Gordon Kirkpatrick* AO, MBE. It seems like just yesterday that I worked a few gigs with the great man. Closer to 15 years in actual fact. On Friday I guess I'll have a rum or two and listen to a couple of albums as a nod to him. * You ...

Re: BR's 5 Bean Sweet chili, How do you make yours???
Why do you guys use packet chilli mixes? They are just a bunch of spices and some other chemicals you really don't need in your system. Why not work out a custom spice blend? Plenty of room for experiment, cheap and a great excuse for a get together... My mixes start with the basics: Cinnamon Corian...

Re: God Bless Gene Simmons (KISS)
He makes some bad points too. Basically saying that the media gave Vick a pass or that everybody thinks Aaron Hernandez is cool is pretty stupid. I don't hate Tebow but I think he's a terrible NFL qb. If anything, his views are the only reason he's relevant, not his play. I think he should try the ...

I am genuinely confused. As outsiders we get a different view via different news services and the like so I do wonder what it looks like closer to the action.

What is POTUSA Thinking?
This is a serious question. I am NOT trying to take the mickey or simply stir the pot. I genuinely want to know. Syria. It is an internal, civil war. Bad things have happened. You guys are $16 trillion in debt, a lot of which is due to some pretty unpopular wars in the Middle East. Yet POTUSA wants ...
