Oliver? :blink:

Don & Excie WOW!! Great stuff. Nuance was a HUGE part of music back in the day. Satch could take one single note and attack it, bend it, shape it, make it breath and mourn its' demise in a way that could tear your heart out. I think a lot of that has been lost in today's music as it has become more like a contest to see who can play the most notes the fastest. Well, maybe I shouldn't say lost, but definitely hiding in the shadows. And, of course, sometimes that is just the ticket to make a musical point. And Ella and Janis could do the same thing with vocals. There's still a lot of good stuff being made today but you have to go seek it out. Back then, it came and found you and you couldn't hide from it. Thanks again for some really cool stuff I hadn't thought about for a while.

Holy cow! You mean you can just "sign in" to The Wax Corps? That sure solves that sponsorship thing pretty quick! HaHaHaHa

It don't mean a thing if it ain't got that swing.

Hello and Welcome, Belding71.

Howdy, JEFFSjo If you want to quote from someones post, you click on the quote/reply thing at the bottom of their post. Their post will appear and you can then proceed. If you want to quote their whole post, you can drop down below the place where it says and post your reply. If you quote portions only, you can delete the portion/s that aren't relevant to your reply. When you do that, it helps to put the word snip before and after the section so it is clear that you have removed it from its context. If you want to quote their whole post and respond to sections of it, you can insert your comments and use the bold, italics, underline, or color features to set your comments apart. Or, perhaps you would like to change the font or size. Now regarding the concept of this program or that program making someone more spiritual or knowledgeable, it is really part of the myth that beckoned people to enlist in these programs. It's part of what drove people to constantly seek the next level up. When I signed up for Fellow Laborers, for example, the idea was that we would study the Book Of Acts intensely for two years and take our advanced knowledge back to our home areas. In reality, we lived in a commune, worked our butts off and had very little academic growth. We scarcely even had time to just sit and read The Word for pleasure. Many times I found myself envious of the people "back home" who could take the time to study aspects of The Word that they chose to. Please don't ever allow yourself to think less of yourself because you didn't have this class or that program to fill out your resume. I am glad you have chosen to bring your own, very unique, perspective here to GSC. We may have times when we don't agree but that's OK with me if it's OK with you. waysider edited 'cause my speeling ain't 2 good these here days.

Potato, I'm pickin' up what you're puttin' down. Sometimes we just need to holler out loud, whether or not anyone is listening. Just want you to know you can holler in my direction anytime you want. Don't know that I'll have any answers but I promise I'll listen. That's what waysiders DO. They listen to concerns that others might have, hoping that the answer will make itself known.

I don't know Mr. Ham---- If you make anymore contacts, you might have to change your handle to "Skip". :)

Hey there Winking Bull. I think it's a pretty cool idea. Or, as someone once stated in the first line of a song: "I like it, I like it!"---- Hmmm, now what song was that?

RATS!! Everyones asleep and I can't find my headphones!!

http://ehobbyland.stores.yahoo.net/remo55fopist.html Is this it?

Is it Me and Bobbie McGee----Kris Kristoferson/Janis Joplin?

Is it Some Kind of Wonderful---- Grand Funk Railroad?

"AYE"!!! At least on the donation part. It does look a good deal like Suzy Parker. Then again, if you've seen one sultry actress, you want to see them all.

'55 pick-em-up, eh? Here's an off the wall suggestion. Get him a model of that truck. You know, the kind guys used to build way back when. The kind you build when you are too old for toys but too broke to buy a really nice car, or pick-em-up, as the case may be. Get him paint that closely matches the paint on the real thing. Ditto on the fuzzy dice.(Real ones for the truck and matching miniatures for the model.) This way he can continue to build his "dream truck" even after he is done building his "dream truck". A long time ago, I tried this with a model of my real car which had T-Tops. It was a challenge trying to cut and fashion those mini-Tees. The real car had racing wheels so, of course, I searched high and low for something that kinda matched. I even found some fabric that approximated the real interior and customized the seats. Now, keep in mind that you can't just use a swath of the authentic fabric because it will lose its scaled ratio. Old owner's manuals and advertising promotions for that vehicle are cool too but not always inexpensive and often hard to find. Then again, a nice bottle of Cognac brandy, V.S.O.P.(Very Superior, Old and Pale) is a gift you can enjoy together.

Stumped!!

Oldies usually posts during the day. (Probably the only time he can log on.) Pretty much the opposite of me. (I can't log on at work during the day.)

Yup You're next!

It's the only thing that keeps me hangin' on!!

Hmmmmmm. Looks a bit like Julie Newmar. You know------CatWoman! Minus the cat mask, of course.

Let's be honest here. John's comments regarding "clocking" a woman were not set in a context that depicted physical danger. Does it need to get pasted again to illustrate the essence of what he said? That's not a "personal attack", it's a statement of fact.
