Re: Jimmy Buffett

Yeah, after he died I read he was a billionaire, so he didn't waste it all in Margaritaville. Some of his tunes seem to be ones that get stuck in my head easily.

Re: Suzanne Somers, 77

Weird...I never watched those tv shows so I had to look her up. Even weirder, I didn't recognize her at all, there were lots of photos, she's well known in American culture, but she's never been in my awareness as far as I can remember.

Re: Suzanne Somers, 77

I watch more tv than I should. My daughter and grandkids got me watching The Big Bang Theory and I guess I'm a sucker for a good love story, plus some of the characters reminded me of people in the real world. Almost every episode really made me laugh. It's funny how 22 minutes of weekly comedy can lift your spirits. For me, 97-99% of sitcoms are just too fucking stupid and repetitive to be bearable, but half an hour or so of good comedy each night just before sleep really helps me get to sleep and have untroubled sleep.

Why should anyone debate someone who doesn't know the subject? -- AZPaul3

If you are going to argue that evolution is false because it resembles your own beliefs then perhaps you should rethink your argument. - - Taq
