zornwil Posted June 17, 2005 Report Share Posted June 17, 2005 Re: A Thread for Random Musings I'm really enjoying the influx of "new blood" into the HERO forums, at least in the on-topic forums (haven't participated enough in NGD to say at all over here, though I suspect it's good here, too, though every time I see a sociopolitical argument it strikes me as same-old-same-old).

AliceTheOwl Posted June 17, 2005 Report Share Posted June 17, 2005 Re: A Thread for Random Musings $300 for an apartment we're not even living in? What the frig? Even if I HAD that kind of money lying around somewhere (liquid or not), I wouldn't pay them. It's the principle of the thing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mightybec Posted June 18, 2005 Report Share Posted June 18, 2005 Re: A Thread for Random Musings I'm actually looking forward to this Father's Day, since it's the first year that my son understands exactly what's going on, and is enthusiastic about it.

lemming Posted June 19, 2005 Report Share Posted June 19, 2005 Re: A Thread for Random Musings Hosed down a cat run today. Had cats that didn't want anything to do with the process to those who closely watched, and one wierd cat that ran after the spray and rolled around in the puddles. And he wasn't a Bengal either.

James Gillen Posted June 20, 2005 Report Share Posted June 20, 2005 Re: A Thread for Random Musings Surfing DirecTV at work, I saw the tail end of The King and I, on Fox Movie Channel, where Yul Brynner's son delivers his first proclamation as the old man gives up the ghost, and after this switched to Turner Classics, which had the tail end of The Champ, where Jon Voight has taken a fatal punch in a fight and Ricky Schroeder is crying his eyes out. After that Turner had a Gene Hackman movie called I Never Sang for my Father, which could probably be summed up by its title. Great way to celebrate Fathers' Day, especially for somebody whose dad isn't alive anymore. I'm looking forward to July 4, when they're going to show Platoon with Apocalypse Now.

death tribble Posted June 20, 2005 Report Share Posted June 20, 2005 Re: A Thread for Random Musings On Saturday went to the Taste of London event. This is when major restaurants do sample dishes for the general public and chefs that you only see on TV are involved as some of the restaurants taking part are theirs. Had Sushi for the first time and baby octopus. Mummy Octopus wasn't too amused and is after me for that. Also had pigeon pie for the first time. There were also drinks and I got into a tasting for Royal Tokaji which is Hungarian wine. Great if you like sweet wines for the latter. Also had a Brazilian spirit called, I think, Sagita.

Cancer Posted June 20, 2005 Report Share Posted June 20, 2005 Re: A Thread for Random Musings I had a conventional but good Middle American Father's Day yesterday. Went bowling with my son and my father-in-law, both of whom are more enthusiastic about bowling than I. (The women in the family were present, but among them only my step-mother-in-law bowled as well.) Strangely, the bowling alley was almost empty. I suppose the nice weather can be blamed for that. The prime rib at the bowling alley's attached restaurant was quite good, and also it was cheap: between a third and half the price it would have been at steak house.

AmadanNaBriona Posted June 20, 2005 Report Share Posted June 20, 2005 Re: A Thread for Random Musings The older I get the more time I seem to have to spend on grooming. Annoying, really. I hate shaving, but the scruffy look isn't so hot on me. And when the frack did I start growing hobbit hair on my toes? *I won't grow up, I won't grow up...* Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
aylwin13 Posted June 21, 2005 Report Share Posted June 21, 2005 Re: A Thread for Random Musings Received an absolutely unexpected Father's Day gift from my wife and daughter: 5 one-hour golf lessons at the club a couple of miles down the street from home.

Cancer Posted June 21, 2005 Report Share Posted June 21, 2005 Re: A Thread for Random Musings On a completely different note ... At least where I am, there'll be unusually low tides for the next few days. If you have a beach near you, could be a great time to take the kids -- mine have their last day of school today -- out there and look for critters. US tidal predictions can be had from http://140.90.121.76/tides05/ (and despite the numeric URL, that's a NOAA official site). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zornwil Posted June 22, 2005 Report Share Posted June 22, 2005 Re: A Thread for Random Musings I say "dude" too much for a man of 42 (or is that a "man" of 42? ). Am I one of those annoying middle aged people who say young people things? I hope not, I think it's more a regional thing here, less age-respective. I hope. It's not like I say "boo-ya" or anything else. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BoneDaddy Posted June 22, 2005 Report Share Posted June 22, 2005 Re: A Thread for Random Musings I was listening to NPR today as I drove north, and I heard Terry Gross interviewing Rob Halford about Judas Priest's new album.
