A Perfect Circle -- So Long And Thanks For All The Fish

MilkmanDan says...

Note Ali (Muhammad Ali), Leia (Carrie Fisher), Major Tom (David Bowie), Willy Wonka (Gene Wilder), Prince, and Brady's Mom (? - Florence Henderson?), all recent celebrity deaths.

Lyrics from https://www.azlyrics.com/lyrics/perfectcircle/solongandthanksforallthefish.html :

Time is money and money is time
We wasted every second dime
On diets, lawyers, shrinks and apps
And flags, and plastic surgery
Now Willy Wonka, Major Tom
Ali and Leia have moved on
Signal the final curtain call
In all this atomic pageantry

Bravissimo, hip-hip hooray
For this fireworks display
Mind and body blown away
What a radiant crescendo

Ticker tape parade
Our hair and skin like
Like Marilyn Monroe
In an empty wind

Time is money and money is time
We wasted every second dime
On politicians, fancy water
And guns, and plastic surgery
Like old Prince and Brady's mom
All the dolphins have moved on
Signaling the final curtain call
In all this atomic pageantry

Bravissimo, hip-hip hooray
What a glorious display
Melt our joyous hearts away
Under the mushroom cloud confetti

Hip-hip hooray
For this fireworks display
Mind and body blown away
What a radiant crescendo

Hip-hip hooray
Hip-hip hooray

Ticker tape parade
Our hair and skin like
Like Marilyn Monroe
In an empty wind

Time is money and money is time
We wasted every second dime
On diets, lawyers, shrinks and apps
And flags, and plastic surgery
Now Willy Wonka, Major Tom
Ali and Leia have moved on
Signal the final curtain call
In all this atomic pageantry

I missed the Bolton match. Sad stuff, reminded me of Marc Vivien Foe. You're right that Spurs have overachieved, that's more accurate.

I have liked Carrol at times but I can only hope for his sake he's going to come good like Drogba who I knew could be awesome but just needed time to settle. Both are big, physical guys that should intimidate defenders. But only one has in his career. Guess Carroll is just too green.

Are you a Liverpool fan? Charlie Adam has been awful lately, we miss Lucas so much. I thought I was the only knowledgeable football man here!


Nah, Spurs fan here. It's been rather frustrating to see how overrated we've been this season. This period of losses has been absolutely predictable. I think Redknapp played Modric on the left against Everton which is mind-blowingly stupid but beyond that we just don't have enough good players.

Charlie Adam is astonishing though. I wasn't sure about him either way when Liverpool bought him. I knew Downing would fail as he's always been mediocre. Looks like Adam should have stayed at the Blackpool level. And don't get me started on Carroll...


I have faith in Carroll and Henderson, I think they will come good. The money splunked on them was ridiculous and they'll never justify that but they can be good players. Downing is out of his depth and Adam, well, he's been awful and we play so much better without him. One season wonder.

Spurs are good, and they're well run. I wouldn't say they are overrated, but that they overachieved. You're not good enough for a title challenge, but you deserve top 4 a lot more than Liverpool :

I take it you saw the Spurs - Bolton match? I've never seen anything quite like that and I hope I never do again.

Death or dismemberment? Meh. (Death Talk Post)

Skeeve says...

I can't compete with you on the number of people I know who have been injured/died, but I do know one guy who has a similar hard luck story to your first one.

A Warrant Officer I used to work with was known as "Hard Luck Henderson" because he just couldn't get a break. While in Afghanistan, the LAV he was in was blown up. He survived with a concussion.

Shortly thereafter he was blown up again and received a concussion on top of his concussion.

A few weeks later, during a patrol through some fields of tall grass, he felt some pain in his foot and thought he had kicked something sharp. They get out of the grass and see that he has been bitten by a poisonous snake. So he gets flown to a hospital where the pump him full of anti-venom because they have no idea what kind of snake it was.

A few months later, at home in Canada, he is driving a truck down to an army exercise and he hits a coyote with his truck. This is normally not a big deal, but this coyote gets wrapped around the axle of the truck. Henderson gets out, begins to unwrap the coyote, and it bites him on the arm and wont let go. He had to strangle it with his bare hands.

So he gets to the exercise (where he has quite an important job to do) and refuses to see a doctor. The next morning his arm looks like a balloon so he is ordered to get it checked out and it is decided he needs to undergo the full rabies treatment (which is about as horrible as any medical treatment gets). He was alright in the end, but had one hell of a year.

Surprisingly, he's a pretty positive guy, hehe.

Jefferson Memorial Dancing on June 4 2011

bareboards2 says...

Okay, I read all SEVENTEEN PAGES of the court's ruling. Luckily, the margins were wide.

Here are some fun bits I found -- including the first, which was a footnote at the very beginning:

1. For his part, Mr. Jefferson is on record discouraging celebration of
his birthday
. “On Mr. Jefferson’s accession to the Presidency
[visitors] had waited on him, requesting to be informed, which was
his birthday, as they wished to celebrate it with proper respect. ‘The
only birthday I ever commemorate,’ replied he, ‘is that of our
Independence, the Fourth of July.’”


2. Having thus created and maintained the Memorial as a commemorative site, the government is under no obligation to open it up as a stage for the roving dance troupes of the world — even those
celebrating Mr. Jefferson.


3. We have noted previously that the Park Service has a
substantial interest in promoting a tranquil environment at our
national memorials. See Henderson, 964 F.2d at 1184 (“Th[e]
interest in maintaining a tranquil mood at the [Vietnam]
Memorial wall is similar to ones that the Supreme Court and
this court have recognized as substantial.”). Here the
government has reasonably advanced its interest in tranquility
because, unlike in Henderson, the restriction on expressive
activity does not sweep beyond the actual Memorial space.
Outside the Jefferson Memorial, of course, Oberwetter and
her friends have always been free to dance to their hearts’
content.
