Thanks TW! Merry Christmas to you too!

Christmas Vacation White Christmas. (corny as anything, but a family tradition) A Christmas Story Its A Wonderful Life Home Alone The 1950s A Christmas Carol We caught The Christmas Chronicles with Kurt Russell as Santa last year and it was pretty entertaining!

Thank you, lerxst! Looking forward to a happy holiday season now that I am home and back here! Sorry I've missed a week or two, I was in hospital again for surgery where they finished what they started this summer, just got home a few days ago. Feeling good and ready for the holidays!

Thanks, Fridge! I have to hit the hospital for a few days (nothing big) and this will be great listening!

Go Packers! The Ravens delivered a last minute win to the Steelers by blowing a 2 pt conversion, so wins all around! Lots of field goals today, good we have Boswell!

Happy, happy birthday Principled Man !! Best wishes to a fellow stargazer and one of the great guys on the Rush Forum! I see the Packers delivered a birthday gift right on schedule; excellent! Cheers!

So the big question, how is Netflix gonna handle the Christmas Day Steelers- Chiefs NFL game if they couldn't get this right? There were sooo many complaints of Netflix freezing and pixelating all over the country. Im kind of half way kidding. I know Jake Paul and Tyson have fans all over the world while the NFL, not as much. Still, though, the Netflix track record is poor.

Disappointing outcome.

Happy, happy birthday Rick N. Backer! I hope today was wonderful for you- this almost snuck by! Have a good one!

He was a good actor in quite a few things- RIP, sir. I'm glad you didn't say it five times!

That sounds familiar! My mom does "I'm not sleeping!" pretty regularly.

Happy Birthday, Laura !! I hope it's a great one for you! Best wishes to a cool bass player and fun TRF member! Hope you got to go to Alex Van Halen's book signing!

Happy, happy birthday TW ! I always enjoy seeing what you're listening to! Hope it's a wonderful birthday for you!

Looks like it has a cool director. Timothy Chalamet is a good actor, but I keep wondering if he is right for the part? Physical look wise yes, but we'll see with the rest. Joaquin Phoenix was great as Johnny Cash and I enjoyed watching Rami Malek in the Queen movie too, but with musical artists its hard to nail sometimes. Still can't make up my mind about Val Kilmer in The Doors, I've seen it a couple of times.

I never even thought of that! Wrap them both in bubble wrap! Keef especially!

Wow, those are great! Hope to see it tonight or tomorrow night! Looked the last 2 nights but we had large cloud banks to the west and couldn't see anything yet.

That's so crazy! Im glad he'll be ok!

I don't even like to drive across those types of bridges (I haven't been to Spain, lol) because they're interesting and its hard to keep eyes on the road! I can't imagine climbing this.

Stones- Gimme Shelter

Deep Purple- Woman From Tokyo

Spirit- Nature's Way

Jimmy Buffett- Tin Cup Chalice

Well, that's no way to start! Rangers, 6, Penguins- 0.

It's been stressful since Friday. My sister lives in the St. Pete Beach area in Florida, and was flooded out by the storm surge Thursday night. She lived in a first floor apartment about a block from a little bay inlet and it rose fast and about 4 feet high into her home. She literally lost everything except a few dishes as her car was flooded out too. Luckily she and her neighbors are physically fine, but its been a lot of trying to find resources, etc. She and a few neighbors are in an an Air bnb for a few days and she already found another apartment, yay! It took a lot of resources when her husband passed from cancer a few years ago though, and so I had to explain all this to my elderly mom and tell her we needed her help to all pitch in so my sis could put a deposit down on an apartment that like 15 other people want right now. Face palm to myself as I should have had a bit more patience with my mom. However, 30 minutes of "I really feel safer sending a check" (mom) vs. "There is literally nowhere to send the check to right now" (me) I spent another 10 minutes trying to explain Venmo and then just gave up and said, " Write me the check and I can email her the money." "Well, why didn't you say that, that is amazing! Lets do it!" Yay mom, I'm just not a good explainer! I should have said that first! Apartment ready to move into Saturday! Life's often interesting around here.

I picked top five. Fly By Night, Permanent Waves, AFTK are awesome and Power Windows is pretty good too. Are we counting the liner notes? Those were the best! There are a few album covers I like better, though not many- Sgt Peppers, Dark Side Of The Moon, that Joy Division mountain thing, Aladdin Sane.
