It's 1972. NY just went through a race riot because the power was off for 18 hours.

Reply to comment by [deleted] in In the 1950s a ray gun was all you needed for a great day. by skipperbob
Dude I grew up in the 50s I don’t have to go back and look at anything I was there. Funny, my brother and I both had shotguns and we both had BB guns. Do you wanna know another funny thing? We didn’t shoot anybody. We didn’t aim at anything except the intended targets. Schools and shoot up people. We didn’t go into banks and rob them. we didn’t hold them up to peoples heads and steal their car. We didn’t get our asses bent out of shape when people corrected us and run home and get our guns and put a bullet through their head. Do you wanna know why we didn’t do any of that? Because we weren’t dumb shits, who didn’t have any control over ourselves and understood the consequences of that type of behavior. Just because there are so many mentally ill, mentally unstable, full-time, asshole thugs, who want to be glorified by using a gun, the way it is not meant to be used Does not mean that the rest of us don’t know how to use them correctly.

Well him, too, but the guy from Mayberry was looking in the window. Harold was a veterinarian.

Yeah, I know that. He received his initial training after he was drafted and then got moved around a bit before being shipped to Europe for D-Day.

Reply to comment by taitaofgallala in Tina Weymouth, Talking Heads/Tom-Tom Club (1983) by So_Do_You_Like_Stuff
Tina Weymouth is an incredible musician and artist, and was hardly a “diddling amateur” prior to joining Talking Heads. She’d been playing and writing music for more than 10 years by the time she joined Talking Heads (then called Artistics) in ‘74. She was a ringer and everyone knew it. More so, she was an accomplished artist, so creative expression was literally her entire life. Chris Frantz repeatedly tried to convince her to join the band because he saw how incredibly talented and creative she was. She spent YEARS of hard work and dedication honing her skill and developing her creative voice before having the opportunity to showcase her talents with Talking Heads. In my opinion, the notion that she somehow came out of nowhere when she started with Talking Heads is not only inaccurate, but does a disservice to Weymouth’s artistic talents and discounts all the hard work she put in to develop those skills as a musician and as an artist prior to joining the band.

On the subject of Threes Company, I always thought that Jack and Janet should have hooked up in the shows ending.

I think that LMS would have been 100 percent better off if they had Mandy and Kylie moved somewhere and just do guest spots from time to time like they did with Eve

He probably regrets this but realized that 15/16 old kids cannot take care of a child. Glad that your dad became a great guy.

I could only ever identify with the brunette room mates (I sorta knew I’d never be a Chrissy, Terri, or Cindy)...
Funny how I thought Janet was the least attractive of the roomies but I actually love her style!!!
Still, in a world where I could be a Lana or a Janet, I ended up being a cross between Lana and Mrs. Roper.

Instead of just being someone’s breakfast in 1940s he immortalised himself forever - clever pig
