Regarding that pic, I’d take Calvin and Hobbes in that fight over Christopher Robbin and Pooh.
‘The Big Bang Theory’ made a good point about Indiana Jones and the Raiders of the Lost Ark – Indy isn’t essential to the outcome of the movie. If you remove Indy the Nazis would have still found the ark, opened it, and melted.
The TICKET was out at the Southwest Airlines Texas/OU plane pull yesterday. Sometimes I really miss working at that place.
WifeGeeding and the kids will be in East Texas this weekend, time to throw another sick party at GeedingManor, or totally veg out and enjoy that thing call silence.
Because of how congressional districts are drawn, oh, nevermind.
Sammy Davis Jr and Jim Henson both died on the same day. Is that bigger than Farrah Fawcett and Michael Jackson dying on the same day?
I like Oktoberfest costumes.
I’ve never been a fan of Lucy Liu but she’s won me over in ‘Elementary’.
‘Parks and Rec’ – Sam Elliot was greatness and they had another forced Microsoft product placement.
When Letterman has Jack Hannah and his animals on it’s can’t miss television for me.
I find it interesting that original Mercury astronaut Scott Carpenter not only orbited the Earth but spent 28 days living on the ocean floor, now that’s exploration.
I’ve seen the Zapruder film plenty of times, but with JFK isolated you can really see the damage. [gif]
The last time I flew out of DFW I was wasting time at one of the gift shops and thought it was a bit strange and macabre they were selling JFK assassination postcards.
Cover up? – The mysterious death of a Georgia teen has taken a bizarre twist with the revelation that an autopsy of his exhumed remains found his internal organs missing and his body stuffed with newspaper.
Scott Carpenter was the fourth U.S. astronaut to fly in space, the second to orbit the Earth and the first man to eat solid food in space. A glitch forced him to take manual control of his spacecraft and miss his splashdown site by over 250nm. It would also be his only spaceflight.
John Glenn is now the sole surviving member of the Mercury Seven.
When I saw the airplane pull I thought of the Keither.
"…it was a bit strange and macabre they were selling JFK assassination postcards" I find it uncomfortable that the city won't let go of the assassination. The DMN has spent the whole year re-living the event in a countdown to the anniversary. When I moved here decades ago I kept hearing how the city was still trying to live it down.
Hard to believe there is only one astronaut left from the original Mercury Seven. According to one obit, he was denied another flight because he had missed the splashdown site by such a wide margin. Apollo 11 astronaut Michael Collins wrote a book about the entire space program and in particular the moon landing. It was one of the best books I've read in a long time. Collins gave a great deal of insight into the various astronauts and their selection. He did not hold back, named names, and, I thought, was surprisingly candid about his opinions of some of them on a personal level.

OU lost the plane pull. Of course, this means UT will win the game this weekend!
"◾Because of how congressional districts are drawn, oh, nevermind.."
It used to be that voters selected their candidates, now, with re-districting, candidates select their voters
Brother you nailed that on the head.
