Foul Bay Hero

Love me some Norris!

dutch people eat like an alleycat in a cartoon Jini Jane @jinijane_ • 1d As a Dutch child I was exposed to extreme amounts of weed smoke, but thanks to being fed large amounts of herring, my brain formed a protective layer which has kept my IQ intact Image is raw or cured herring with chopped onions and a perplexingly large pickle slice

It turns out dutch food, like writing, looks like if english had a stroke

It feels good to a be a gangster.

It's not often one sees a movie with the production values of a Very Special Episode of "Lovejoy." #DriveInMob #Welcometotheearly90s

Ah, so this is going to be subtly comedic, is it? #DriveInMob

#DriveInMob Shaving at the card table=totally normal behaviour.

#DriveInMob I appreciate that this movie has the opening theme of an educational movie about fractions.

That Greenwood purr!

So uncharismatic.

Franklin Delano Roosevelt's desk in the Oval Office, including his phone with no dialing mechanism (since all calls went through the White House operator).

I mean, check out FDR's desk. That's a person's desk, not a stage. Is that Fala's ball on the floor to the right of the chair?

TWO toy airplanes, at that. MLK bust replaced by...Eisenhower?

I know it's been a long time since one could see a personal touch to the Oval (JFK?). But, my, it's such a tacky mess and tacky messaging.

It's all so tacky.

You and me both, HRC.

Rick Steeves will be back in "FODOR Eyes Only"...

Wonderful!

Yes, fascinating movie---but also fascinating as a portrait of life with an obsessive artist. I think of that terrible, painful scene in the food court where we can see that marriage collapsing.

I've been deploying "Northern Exposure" as an escape/comfort in the face of what's happening with my dear mother. I haven't see it since the high days of reruns on A&E circa 1996, & yet so much is etched in my memory. Also struck by how strange a show it still seems. Need to visit Roslyn, WA.

"But it IS the toilet!"

Aren't they wonderful?

The world could be such a nice place if we allowed it. It's all so goddamn unnecessary. There's no need for any of it. It's so beautiful here. It should be so cool to be alive

What a darling!

A poem titled "Vigil." The poem's text reads: Let me hold a vigil as you rest, caught between the half-kept darkness and the sound of daylife just outside, gathering your cares and watching as you try to slip the sapping world away. Let me guard the rise and fall of sleep within you as I listen to the quiet breathing of your heart, the grating rumble of your past, and the carelessness of skin beneath the sheets. Let me brush away the idle hairs that fall across your eyes, pushing back their veiling curls before they shroud your spirit in their weight and tether fast your dreams. Let me kiss your head and settle in to stay between these moments and the ever-asking door, a quiet lover in the corner of your tired, rolling dusk. Let me hold this vigil by your side, And I will be here for you when you wake. -- John Wyatt Greenlee

A poem for this afternoon. Sometimes we all need a someone to stand watch over us.

No but this is entirely correct

“But there is one thing that I can do all by myself.”

“What is that?” asked Frog.

“I can go home,” said Toad. “Winter may be beautiful, but bed is much better.”

The best soft serve ice cream I've ever eaten I had as a child at the Tillamook cheeseworks in Tillamook, Oregon, when my parents and I were traveling the Oregon Coast. Decades and decades later, it still stands out in my memory.

I think of that picture of T with all the McDonald's he was serving some other team

Gosh, I'm astonished that GoT was that long ago now.

(loving this thread, by the way)

Damn, I wish I could be there! Look forward to the podcast, at least!

Woke up in a cold sweat. From what the doctor said, I have limited time left with Mom, but Mom was having a CT scan yesterday of her head. And I just hope and hope it won't mean less time.
