Clonus Posted August 3 Report Share Posted August 3 In the Acolyte one of the twins is introduced as a character so down on her luck that she has a job which violates Republic worker safety regulations.

Cancer Posted August 4 Report Share Posted August 4 Just got home from my 50-year high school reunion. It's really hard to recognize people you haven't seen in half a century. Pariah 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
death tribble Posted August 12 Report Share Posted August 12 For the last 16 days I was posting Olympic medal results in the General Sports Thread and now it is all over, I am slightly bereft. On August 28th the Paralympics start up but this Saturday, the Vuelta starts so I will have that to keep me occupied Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cancer Posted August 18 Report Share Posted August 18 Amusing typo today: a list of "Prohobited Items" for an outdoor concert I'm attending tomorrow. Makes me wonder when the Professional Hobbit Association started getting exclusive contracts for public venues. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cancer Posted August 20 Report Share Posted August 20 Got back from that concert. John Fogerty was the main performance; George Thorogood & the Destroyers was the other performer on the bill; the warm-up performance was Hearty Har, a band to which at least one of Fogerty's sons belongs, and it was Fogerty's back-up band in the last part of the concert. Solid all around, and I may not need to see another concert. Of course, I'm also not sure whether I at age 68 was over or under the median age of those in attendance.

death tribble Posted September 5 Report Share Posted September 5 Watched a World of Tanks replay video put up by the Mighty Jingles. This has a bug on it as he said which meant there were no tank engine noises. It was suggested that he make the noises himself which he duly did. It was really funny listen to him narrate the battle and also do engine noises. The bug was previously corrected by stopping the video and rewinding it forcing a reset but the company corrected this.

death tribble Posted September 9 Report Share Posted September 9 The next time someone whines about the Star Wars sequels or some other such thing being bad and the worst film ever I will point them at some of the quickies produced for British cinema. I have noticed how awful the soundtracks can be and how out of place they can be. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cancer Posted Tuesday at 03:59 AM Report Share Posted Tuesday at 03:59 AM Perhaps incautiously, I went and got both flu and COVID vaccinations around midday today. Right arm is getting sore; left arm is probably an hour or two behind. Probably I should go to bed. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
