^I agree with most of Will’s critique. I felt there were enough interesting people, components and relationships in the story to make it longer than a single movie, but didn’t need to be 8 episodes, or however long it was.

I enjoy documentaries about quirky people doing their thing, but the wild animals living in maladaptive environments, being mistreated, neglected, and, allegedly, killed, kept it from being a source of total escape for me, which is what I needed at the time.

Speaking of quirky assholes, I just read a headline that stated one-third of Americans surveyed in a recent poll believe that a vaccine or cure for Coronavirus exists but is being withheld and almost half believe it was created in a lab. I am obviously reading the wrong news sources. Or maybe I’m just too old and tired to be a conspiracy theorist anymore. It’s not that I’m an authority truster. I think I’m willing to believe anything, but I am not jumping to any crazy conclusions that easily. Is it because it came from China? I didn’t read the article.

Good morning

Time marches on here. Going well. How about by you?

Coronavirus?

Ugh. We’ve got that too.

Well, then. See ya.

#17129

^You/your family personally have it? Or just speaking in general terms?

Good morning. How do I transform myself into someone who just gets their shit done instead of procrastinating everything? Is it possible?

#17130

Good morning! ^I think you can. Small, attainable goals. No bad self talk. Go for it.

#17131

^^ Thankfully no coronavirus for me or my family. I don’t know anyone who had/has coronavirus. I know someone who knows someone or knows someone who knows someone that has coronavirus. I hope everyone gets better or doesn’t get sick at all.

Good morning.

So they delayed summer tour one year. Did you guys hear about that? When are my tickets going to ship?

::waits by mailbox::

More Dinner and a Movie tonight. Mike has a whole box of Mexico 2017 shirts in his garage, so 1/15/17 it is.

Duuuuuudddessssss good morning, like, earlier.

Hey folks…been chilling and still working since WFH is an option for me, thankfully. Been lots of movies, Jordan doc and Dark Souls 3 to pass the time. Enjoyed the Sigma Oasis album…it’s a lot of stuff we’ve heard before but the jams are kind of nice. I miss a good studio jam…too many jambands stop jamming in studio after a while for some reason.

#17134

What’s up OKP! I’m :crazy: kinda crazy, day job has been tough. Night job has been tough but in the other direction: no night job no mo’.

I can’t tell what the reason is, but the last like, fifteen years or so have seen me less and less musically active at home. I’m usually frustrated by that, conceptually, but not in practice (pun welcome but not intended).

So here I am on a Saturday with very little in my way, but I’ll probably manage to avoid anything resembling songwriting somehow. Well it’s okay, I tell myself. I have to either just accept that I’m less inclined, or change my behavior.

Thing is, with all these evenings at home, I’m not sure why I’m practically avoiding it.

I hope you guys are all safe and sound and managing some sanity.

Speaking of Sanity, they didn’t ask me, but they shoulda squeezed Junta on four sides of vinyl and then used the third record for the bonus cuts. Slight fidelity loss woulda been worth the cooler song layout. Side C Divided Sky | David Bowie

Hey folks. Not been checking in enough. Been swamped at my job but mostly due to a planned accounting overhaul in May that just caused piles of issues…hope to be mostly through it now. Been getting by with tunes, podcasts and video games otherwise and maybe the occasional movie.

Really dig Sigma Oasis. Was glad the band just jammed on an album for a change.

Your Friday Song. Caught the PBS Special and loved this version.

#17136

Sup Stevo!

Good Sunday to y’all

I just got thru disc one of an old Phish bootleg CD, back when I had to buy those to get me some of the rarer songs … It’s Phish On The Mountain, 6/16/90. Esther just made me a fan all over again, my god what a fucking song.

Okay hey! Good afternoon morningheads!

#17137

Good morning

I missed Dinner and a Movie last night, but it’s on YouTube. Listening now. I think they take it down after a day or two?

Nothing new here

#17138

^ video still works. Maybe they keep it up until replacing it with new show the next week?

Good morning

#17139

Every time I get into these ruts where I listen to lots of normal music I wonder if I’m losing interest in jambands…then I listen to Phish and get pulled right back. The sick Forbin from that vid! Glorious!

Have been swamped with work but got away “Up North” over the July 4th weekend. Had a nice relaxing birthday there before getting back to it. The world’s gone mad so I’m just hiding out.

#17140

Been into the Dead all of a sudden, finally. I don’t know what suddenly caused it. Been collecting their records for years, hoping I’d appreciate them someday.

Well goooood morning to you, may your respective communities be safe from the threat of ourselves today.

#17141

Good morning. Happy August.

Hi, Kevin. It’s just the right time to get into the Dead. The Days Between. Jerry Garcia birthday August 1. Death August 9. There’s all kinds of online stuff https://www.dazebetween.com/

And NHL covid playoff spectacular starts today. First game started at noon. I’ll be watching Blackhawks on NBC at 2:00.

#17142

Morning Y’all.

Love ya, and hope you’re all well in these weird /wild times. Send some love to our pal Phishinsky, who has the Rona.

Hi Thom!

Good morning OKP

So, we buy a nice new kitchen faucet from the local/not local upscale plumber, and find when we get there that we need to register online for a meeting with the sales rep.

Buy the kitchen faucet. Used my email addy that I use here @ OKP.

What I’m sayin is, sorry about the kitchen faucet spam you’re seeing here today, I expect it’s algorithmic-ally linked to my email address from that random company that furnished the meeting registration website to Supply New England.

Like, that’s just freaking me out, to be busting my ass trying to install this &#$%%&! faucet on this beautiful August fucking afternoon, and I jump over to OKP to find kitchen faucet spam.

Sup. Can’t believe my password still worked

#17145

^ Nice. Good to see you.

Good morning

We stuck with online school for now instead of going back to face-to-face. Partly to avoid Covid germs. Partly to avoid masks all day. Partly to be able to go on a road trip to Ohio and Illinois next week. (Teacher Zoom check ins from the road.) 40th birthday for sister-in-law in Ohio. Visiting my family in Illinois. We haven’t seen my parents since Thanksgiving, so going there is a must. I’d also like to see some cousins in Tennessee, but I don’t think that is going to happen.

#17146

Where in Ohio?
