  1. When my friend Mike and I were in the Army in the late 1960s, he wrote "eat me" on his hat. I did.
  2. Agree. Ivy students certainly still fall asleep in class and often look as if they just woke up when arriving for class. But, they are friendly and dress down. Few Catholics.
  3. Can you factual support your general comment about conservatives not necessarily taking care of neighborhoods and states to (of all things) attract better investors? That seems like an opinion to me.
  4. Nick has now been in the hospital in Los Angeles for two months. Pray for him.
  5. There is a lot to babble about right now. Good luck, Gman.
  6. You told me to "stay on topic, even though you did not start this thread/topic.
  7. I don't particularly care about a friend's political views, including support of Frank Rizzo and Donald Trump. I am not surprised you mentioned it.
  8. @marylander1940, you already have twice a many post as anyone else.
  9. Huh? You aren't the hall monitor.
  10. Some racist people are poor, certainly not most. And some racist are quite wealthy. Many people want to invest in property, but by no means, everyone. Some people rent because it gives them more options in life.
  11. What does knowing how to handle money have to do with being liberal or conservative?
  12. Still, his actions were a bit unusual, with a female or male partner, as is, your decision not to change the title of this thread after members complaints.
  13. Mary Martin asked Ethel late in their lives if she really said, "Mary Martin is ok, if you like talent.". Ethel, "of course not. My press agents made those things up." From a biography of Merman by Bob Thomas
  14. Speaking of rabbit holes.
  15. Scott was good in Battle of The Network Stars many ago, excellent team player. And he played a guy who stuck up for a gay friend in late afternoon television show.
  16. Free or for a relatively low cost many Met operas are available also on DVD in local libraries (free) and for people who live in New York, or close to New York (standing room and at reduced prices for seniors and students). My first opera was Britten's "Death in Venice" at the Met in 1974. I didn't have much money, and I could even afford it. And I like standing room at lot, especially for an opera I barely know (and with excellent singers like Kauffmann or Flores).
  17. Good to know, I shall tell my friend's wife. He died in Vietnam, and his name is on the Vietnam Memorial in Washington.
  18. Extremely sad for those many trashed and forgotten then and now. And all over the world as well
  19. The Metropolitan Opera is closed. Many of the operas the company shows nightly have been available on the Met site for years. Actually, your goal might be to open up this country sooner rather than later. You are the Woody Allen of surprises.
  20. Post a feel good story about places that really need it, please.
  21. Doctor Fauci has said the same things over and over. For example, the consequences of novel coronavirus are often more severe than expected.
