Mind? I love it! Thank you. I like the simple lyrics of his work. I like his Brainwashed album too.
Happy Birthday to the thoughtful one..

That is perplexing; it's right up there with:
Why doesn't Donald Duck wear pants, yet Goofy does?

You know, this is becoming sort of a penance for me. Thank you for that Pearl Jam version, it was very good. Here's another car story.

Most states won't issue "Classic" license plates until the car is 25 years old. Why can't TCM use a measure as that one? 25 seems still too young? There are some films that will become classics, but I believe there is no such a thing as a Modern Classic. The California Craftsman home was just a house for many years. Only age defines a antique.

I have many friends who still have no idea of a good classic. If it's b&w, there must be something wrong it. I find the pairing of Gere/Roberts a little creepy too, but then the premise of Pretty Woman isn't Red Dust. I find Roberts one of the least classy (and we have a current crop of classless) actresses out there. As far as these movies go, there will be a few more of the newer ones on before the awards.
But I am amazed at the number of women who consider Pretty Woman their favorite romantic movie ! ! !
I just get WT* about that! What are they thinking?

>*Yes. What's the trouble?*
Humphrey Bogart, Casablanca (1942)
h5. I can quote from other movies, but it's not nearly as much fun.

Gotta be honest, it could be hard for anyone over 50 to be watching this movie. I have seen it, and I wanted to bypass this time around, thank you.
I knew about Sheiks in the 1920s (and why the Trojans Company used that name!) but I hadn't heard about Sheba. Fascinating.

And you're gonna walk outta here with a degree from the University of Notre Dame. In this life, you don't have to prove nothin' to nobody but yourself. And after what you've gone through, if you haven't done that by now, it ain't gonna never happen. Now go on back.*
