The Lounge where we move on to the next thing.

I’ve always had one goal in life, to live as interesting a life as I could…(a lot of money and at least one hole in one would be nice too.) So this lounge is dedicated to the next chapter in all our lives and whatever adventures await us…or it’ll just be the same old jokes we’ve been doing for years now. Lounge away if you wish.

    Really? The first one is basically the perfect action movie. The second one is a lot of fun and I like the third one. The fourth one I’ve basically forgotten and apparently the the fifth one is pure awfulness on a stick.

    But seriously, folks....

    The first one never looked that interesting to me, so naturally the rest didn’t grab me.

    I’d give it a try. I’ve never met anyone who saw it that didn’t like the first one.

    But seriously, folks....

    Ok, I’ll get around to it sooner or later. The old Cooper River Bridge is in it.

    The first one is one of my favorite all time movies. I don’t think I’ve ever happened upon it on TV and not sat down to watch the rest of it.

    avatar
      up

    Hmm, good to know.

    avatar
      up

    I generally HATE movies, and I give the first Die Hard a B+ and the second one a D+, which translated to normal terms is like five stars and 3 1/2 stars, respectively.

    I didn’t see the first one until it was out on video. Rented it, watched it, enjoyed it… and went into labor. ( Yes, I was pregnant at the time… didn’t just miraculously erupt in baby.) So naturally I recommended it to my friends when they were tired of being pregnant.

    I don’t care what anyone says…Jaws: The Revenge is the best movie ever made about a great white shark having a personal vendetta against one family because years earlier another great white shark had been killed by the dad of the family, who is now dead but oddly enough not killed by any other great white shark, that follows the wife of the dead dad to some island somewhere that might be in a different ocean for all we know after killing the son of the mother earlier in the movie that stars Michael Caine.

    I hardly ever go. I could say that’s because I can do a better job producing it for radio without any impressions from the event on stage, but the truth is I’m just lazy. I was prepared for Gore to be a snoozefest, but I thought it wasn’t all that bad.

    Maybe I wasn’t alive for enough of the 90s but I do know that if youve actually seen Gore at any time in the last 10 years hes been anything but a snoozefest.

    My life is beautiful and complicated and great.

    Out of the 13 expected guests for my party last night, 3 attended. Yet, it just meant more time for core people and we all had great fun. One of my boyfriends sees through me, though, ‘cuz we think very much alike and he’s a lot older and wiser than I am. It’s kind of intimidating to be around him for a whole weekend, and I have to work hard to communicate as meticulously and honestly as possible in order to facilitate clarity (and avoid his Mr. Miyagi/Don Juan Matus-esque questions that are the inevitable responses to inefficient communication on my part).

    Walking down an unfamiliar street today, I needed to get rid of a used Thirsty-Two Ouncer, and lo and behold there’s a public park with a restroom.

    I go in and that’s odd, there’s no urinal, but I’m pretty focused on my present need, so I execute.

    When I walk over to the sink I see the tampon vending machine, and FINALLY the bell rings. But good, nobody is in here, so I’ve gotten away with it.

    When I go to exit, there’s a woman bringing her kid in. That was one of the dirtiest looks I’ve seen in a long time. I politely held the door for her. The sign wasn’t very big, it does need to be more conspicuous, and yes, it does happen innocently from time to time.

    avatar
      up

    My most recent post about Wild Willy’s on the forum. There are several other great, free public-lands soaks within several miles; get a hot springs guide book if you need details. At this time of year direct access to all these soaks is dubious due to snow, and then snowmelt turns the roads to mud in late March into April. It’s about a 3 hour drive down there from Tahoe, which you pretty much have to go through from the Bay Area at this time of year, so something like 7 hours total one-way. Cut about 90 minutes off that when you can go through Yosemite ($20 toll), starting around Memorial Day.

    When Anchot Steam was sold a few years back, the new owners said that they planned to increase production. The increased production would launch them towards the top of craft breweries by production, but still behind some well respected craft breweries, such as Sierra Nevada and New Belgium.
