  3. In my younger years (say, pre-25), I probably would have done the same thing the truck driver did. In my bolder years, I would have thought, "What the heck" and asked you out. Maybe you need that boldness, too. If you make the first move, you can set the ground rules. If there's a spark there, go for it. (Of course, as many have pointed out, don't be an idiot!) George And you're so hot, I'M having trouble thinking!
  4. The "National Community Band," made up of community band members from around the country, will perform "Sousa on the Strip," a band concert in the style of John Philip Sousa, this Sunday afternoon (7/23) at 3:30 PM at the Judy Bayley Theater on the campus of UNLV. I've been a member of the National Community Band ever since its inception 22 years ago. (I play baritone saxophone.) The band is organized in conjunction with the biennial National Band Association convention, though this year the actual convention was in Normal, IL, last month. :blink: Band members receive the music in May to work on individually, and then there is a series of intense rehearsals of the whole band right before the concert. (This year, we have a rehearsal Friday night, two on Saturday, and one on Sunday before the performance!) The concert should be excellent. The selections look fun (lots of marches, of course, and other Sousa Pieces, but also overtures and solo pieces); and we have a lot of great musicians and a top-notch conductor. All we need is an audience. So, be there! It will be too hot to do anything else, anyway. And, before I forget ... IT'S FREE!!! George
  5. This is my favorite Ella song. Oddly, it was her only Top 40 hit. Ella George I'm not getting the link to post right, but if you click this link you can click the little speaker icon and play it.
  6. No need to apologize for liking the movie, Tom! George

  8. Knowing the answer, I can "retrofit" the clues. The last picture doesn't come up, but the properties say it's a Shah. So MA'AM (or MUM, or MOM) + "MWAH"s + GAY + SHAH. George And Tom, I ONLY look at properties if I can't see a picture!
  9. The lion was by its DEN. It was the sneaker that I couldn't get. (I wasn't thinking about HI-top.) Yes, Dooj, I knew it; and Tom probably did, too. But we knew YOU would have a better puzzle to post! George
  10. I'm pretty sure I know what the movie is from the first and last clues. Too bad a couple of the pics didn't come up. George

    A lot of my buddies and I put on an annual "Thank God I'm not a Pig" roast down here, and we've been doing it on a Saturday in early October. We'll have to make sure it doesn't conflict with Ex10's gig! George
  12. On the other hand, if you don't know it, you really don't know it. I don't know it. :) George
  13. Is the earth warmer than it was a few decades ago? Yes. Is man responsible (even in part)? Impossible to tell. A lot of people want to look at a correlation and see causality. One could make a fair correlation between the number of Southern Baptists and global mean temperature, but that doesn't mean the Southern Baptists are the cause of global warming. (I'm trying really hard not to make a comment about hot air!) I remember seeing a REALLY good correlation between solarization (sun activity) and global mean temperature a few years ago. I wish I had kept a copy of the article. George

    So... late November, then? :) George
  15. Ha! When I saw "shagging" I was thinking a la Austin Powers. I forgot that "shag" was a term for a slow jitterbug. (I saw the movie a few years ago.) There were a few small carnival-type places near me when I was growing up. I could spend hours at skee-ball or a shooting gallery. All gone, now, of course. :( George
  16. Yeah. Where are Sharon and Pawnbroker? I think they've seen every movie. Heck, Sharon got "Traxx" on the second clue! George
  17. Dooj's edit beat Raf by an eyelash. "Captain Horatio Hornblower" it is. Do it, Doojable! George
  18. Since I'm almost positive I have it right, try this one. (Better hurry, Dooj!)
  19. Cute, Linda! CAP + TENS + CORE + AITCHES = "Captains Courageous." George
  20. Il etait vraiment "Michelle," Dreaming. (Revante?) Allez! George

    Sounds like fun, Ex! My wife loves Shiner. And with the kids now living in Kingwood (and a sister-in-law in the Woodlands) we do get up your way now and then. George
  22. Interesting. I have few songs that make me switch stations, too; but this isn't one of them! :) Geroge
  23. Sont les mots qui vont tres bien ensembles, tres bien ensembles. George
  24. Tom? Tom?? TOM!!!! You're up! George
