Colo Gov Jared Polis keeps trying. 🥸
Trump IS unserious, insecure, uninterested in the world, a lightweight, incompetent, embarrassing, and a third-tier leader unworthy of respect. And we - the royal we - elected him. Putin, Jinping, and Un can’t believe their luck. Trump has put us in peril. www.theatlantic.com/ideas/archiv...
Disgusting.
The actions today by the Florida SG were a disgrace but not a surprise. He traffics in performative politics. Most polls show strong bipartisan support (80%) for childhood vaccine requirements Go to healthychildren.org for all information related to childhood vaccines and ignore the nonsense
EEOC??? Disgusting!
I am old enough to recall no such things as "hoodies." They were just hooded sweatshirts, pullover or zip-up.
what's coming?
I don't know who either of these people are, and like it that way.
Still remember your tweet with one of these along with a bourbon (or some such) posted on Nov 4, 2020. Hope this celebration lasts eons longer.
It isn't? Seriously!
My sister showed me the guitar chords to this. It seemed super fancy. One of my first learned-songs. #AT40
This Carpenters song and LP remind me of my late brother. He had this and I listened end-to-end many times. I loved Karen's singing because it was in a reasonable range for me, not high-pitched wiggly singing that I had trouble replicating. #AT40
I think my pigtails have that yarn ribbon in them!
Aww... I tried out for cheerleading AND basketball and the gym teacher said, just pick one... I chose basketball. Best decision. Sorry about the splits, Shiuvaun... #AT40
Crystal Beach at all?
I like the way you roll, Bill... by the real artists. I have both these LPs still! #AT40
Fun Fact: "Nightmare Alley" used the City Hall in scenes among others in Buf, Hamilton, Toronto. buffalonews.com/entertainmen...
too cool!
As a Buffalo gal, agree 100%. It was 10 minutes away... that's a foreign country?? #AT40
This would be banned under the Anti DEI EO #AT40
I like "Stones" even though I don't know what it means, exactly #AT40
somehow I remember belts but only in the front? Could be wrong.
My mother hated it because she could not see out the back window well enough!
can you dig it can you dig it can you dig it can you dig it #AT40
...1967 version, in 1970. Coupe. What kind of family car was this?? Followed up in 1971 by a HUGE Impala. The Caprice came in 1976, the car I learned to drive in. #AT40
We had an Impala...
Were they just rando session people?
Moody me, age 10, 1970 #AT40
...and the yarn ribbons that came in all colors!
Schwinn? Huffy?
Who are these people? #AT40
I have scars. I was in 6th grade, and loaded with pox, even in my mouth. I would not wish it on anyone. And, now am at risk for shingles (for which I have been vaccinated, BTW!)
Fuckers.
Still have the LP, all scratched up from overplay
I saw Billy Joel in 1979 I think but was kind of hammered on Southern Comfort so a bit blurry on the show. I remember he played Rootbeer Rag. #AT40
"Carey" by Joni, "Can't You See" and "Helplessly Hoping" (had gal harmony singers).
I just want to say I look dorky, with my monogrammed sweater and I was wearing blue Levi's cords and a turtleneck. A kind of uniform. Songs? "Carey" by Joni, "Can't You See" and "Helplessly Hoping" (had gal harmony singers).
He had that one move only
Big glasses are in again. You are right in style.
🤣
May 26, 1979: After Freshman year of college. Wild 2nd semester. And the one in which I played my first "coffeehouse." In May, I would have been partying with hometown friends and getting ready to work at camp at the end of June. #AT40
For us "non-sirius" people, what is the date?
Rand took her Soc security and Medicare just fine.
love it
"Let the Good Times Roll at BJ's, Fredonia, USA," as engraved in 1982 with ballpoint on the wooden ladies room door at our awesome college bar. Long may it run.
A crushing decision. 😥
Liar. And hand-hiding.
Vladeck: "...the real culprit here is the Supreme Court’s own majority, which continues to hand down thinly (or entirely un-)explained rulings in these cases and expect lower-court judges to read their minds in the face of entirely reasonable arguments for distinguishing the earlier rulings."
He was a ROTC dude who kind of reminded me of Neidermeyer from Animal House.
what a voice
Reminds me of the guys' dorm at Fredonia. This one guy used to chronically blast Hot Blooded out of his dorm window. Very romantic. #AT40
I saw Pablo Cruise at a big stadium show in Buffalo. Opened for Bob Welch, followed by Foreigner, and then Fleetwood Mac as headliner. #AT40
Female crusher was the awesome Rosemary Butler #AT40
Read his awesome memoir. So good.
Fun fact. In later years I got to know Doug Haywood (IYKYK) and sang on one of his CDs. And he played bass on one of mine. #AT40
Reminds me of a drunken night after too many rum and cokes, at a skeezy bar... being sung by a local cover band. I was 18 and got home late and was in big trouble with Dad.
Grease was the best of cheese. #AT40
Poor Deb.
Clinging to the post hippie era, along with my peasant blouses, wraparound skirts, and platform sandals. Still like that stuff, actually.
You look like Bradley Cooper a little.
They all seemed old!
Grease!!??
And in every bar in western NY #AT40
Oh yes. Summer 1978 was my 2nd year of my camp job. I turned 18 in August. My first adult cocktail at a bar was a Singapore sling. I don't know why, it just sounded fancy. Here's me with some counselors and my Contessa (Hohner) guitar, which I still have and play! #AT40
My first job summer 77 in a summer camp kitchen, age 16. A single radio station from Jamestown, NY to listen to (or maybe Erie PA?) playing these songs. #AT40. Even the annoying ones take me back.
Oh my ever-loving lord.
when do you guys start listening? I don't have XM, just wondering so I can sort of follow along! (I am in Mountain Time)
Is $ speech or not? See Buckley v. Valeo. www.theguardian.com/us-news/2025...
This game is hard!
LOVED and LOVE this song!!! #AT40 Not to be confused with Louie Louie.
Love this song. I am seeing Sir Paul in October in Denver! #AT40
I remember various of these bands touring together or in a group. Other similars are like Griderswitch, Winters Brothers (Allman brothers knock-off), and Molly Hachet. My friend played keyboards with Henry Paul Band in the early 80's. #AT40.
Same!
There were so many talk shows at that time! You might be right.
🥰
Seals & Croft seemed like they were always on The Mike Douglas show, which I loved watching after school #AT40.
Again with the question songs!
No, and stop asking, already. #AT40.
Trying to turn my 16 yr old grand niece onto Dark Side of the Moon LP!
There's so many of these #AT40 songs todaythat I have never heard of and don't remember.
Bobby. All the way. #AT40
So sorry. 💔
A song for "old people"
This looks like an AI generated "old Elvis " picture. #AT40
I was not that interested in what was going on behind closed doors at that stage of life when this was a hit. #AT40
Fun fact! #AT40
Acme! We had those in Buffalo.
It was a top with a matching skirt. I remember there was elastic at the bottom of the shirt. That's my only memory!
August of 73, freshly 13, prepping for 8th grade and my last year in Catholic school before the Eden of the public HS. Eighth grade class picture, still hiding my braces, I think. #AT40
Just rewatched recently. Good one.
