What made you smile today?

♪♪ VA-VA-VA-VOOM ♪♪

nice, mmmmmm, smile

Know what'cha mean, Bill. I've been smiling ever since Debacle posted that pic. Thank you for re-posting it; it's a great excuse for returning to this thread time and again.

I'm most pleased you appreciate the photo, Andrei. You realize without my saying as much (though I will nevertheless) a picture such as this is seldom seen, especially in a church, a schoolroom or any venue of that ilk. Bethatasitmay, here we have three worldly infamous musicians snagged all at once.

Seen from portly to starboardly, they are: double-bassist, Josephus Igor Blimey; cellist, Yo-yo Moe; and (need I say?) composer, Ledwig ben Beatoffen. Appearing with the bandmeisters (la femme left in extremist) is their current female under study, Ms Ima Alfresco.

Ain't a bit surprised you're smiling, Lusting. It's not every day one gets the chance to see the likes of this artifact for nuthin'.

compare and contrast

No comparison, Beth. Them gals win hands down. I can tell that one plays a bad booty-woogie.

Try this, Beth.

the house where Johannes Brahms grew up as a boy in Hamburg .

i passed by the house on my way to school .

Ahhhh, I miss seeing her work. Thanks for that.

Cogito, ergo sum. I shake things up, therefore I am.

My ex called. We do this every so often to catch up re ourselves and our families.

He told me that my niece still bike rides or drives by our old house. She was so happy when she was there. That makes me happy.
She graduates from Cal State soon. That makes me happy too.

He and I for similar reasons have turned off to the area, he more than I have but not by much. (I'm more sentimental for the place we lived in.) The house was super remodeled twice since we left- last time I looked on Google street view it made me sick to look at. The Venice I dearly miss isn't there anymore. Nor my baby house.

Found a flyer in my postbox this morning. It said:

YOU CAN HAVE SEX AT 68!

Wow! I'm at No. 72 so that's only next door but one. Won't even have to cross the road, just slip through the hedges. I've been keeping a pretty close lookout but haven't seen anyone going in or out so far. But come nightfall ....

Who knows what evil lurks in the hearts of men? The Shadow knows!

I allus suspected you to live in that kind of 'hood.

Then hop on over, Andy. The way they're droppin' around here we always got room for another suspect.

Just one thing, though ... beyond the second hedge, they's a pitbull to deal with.

Pitbull, spitball, what's the difference?

Oh, well, forget it. I just found out who lives there, a guy with a prosethesis.

I'll tell you though what did bring a smile today. I found a thread about oldtime Abuzz folks. You were there. Apart from some chuckles, it provided answers to a few wonderings I've had.

Prolly tween his buns.

Looking through my video collection and finding this one.
