So charming! I love places like that. Alas, it's hugely out of my price range, even if I wanted to expatriate, which I don't.
I'm in a lousy mood today (packing up stuff at my dad's, cleaning up after everyone left, and screwing around with several seemingly truly incompetent customer service centers and whatnot). Please, someone make me laugh!!!!
I do sincerely hope everyone else is having a good day. Trooper, looking forward to watching tonight's new episodes.**^ Anyone going to gather here?
***Assuming I can get my dad's sat service back in shape (one of the cust. svc. ctrs. I'm dealing with).
Death by misadventure! Or so the coroner's report is said to state.
Misadventure in a place where Adventures were the hatched and happening thing! Too creepy a consideration for me to pony up even if I had millions. Pooh sticks can be played anywhere.
Apparently Jones was buried 12 feet deep in a lavish casket sent by Bob Dylan, with Jagger missing from the funeral but having this to say when asked if he felt guilty about Jones's death:
"No, I don't really. I do feel that I behaved in a very childish way, but we were very young, and in some ways we picked on him. But, unfortunately, he made himself a target for it; he was very, very jealous, very difficult, very manipulative, and if you do that in this kind of a group of people, you get back as good as you give, to be honest. I wasn't understanding enough about his drug addiction. No one seemed to know much about drug addiction. Things like LSD were all new. No one knew the harm. People thought cocaine was good for you
Keith Richards goes on at length in his autobiography about the tough times when they were essentially ousting Jones' leadership (and Keith was wooing Pallenberg away too). Much like Roger Daltrey with The Who, Jones couldn't write songs, though he was obstensibly the band's leader. He was an accomplished musician, able to pick up and play a variety of instruments (he plays sitar on Paint It, Black. As far as cruelty, one the worst things I recall Richards saying during the recording of "Let It Bleed," Jones, feeling left out, said "What can I play?" to which Jagger responded "I don't know, Brian, what can you play?
Lots of what Richards wrote regarding Jagger is pretty amusing. I suppose Jagger will have to write his memoires to counter some of it. For a guy who allegedly did some many drugs his memory is mazingly sharp.
chickenlittle...This one's for you...from the Brian Jones look-up, because it fits what's been mentioned before about the gifted having difficulty balancing the gift.
Original Stones bassist Bill Wyman stated about Jones: "...he formed the band. He chose the members. He named the band. He chose the music we played. He got us gigs ... Very influential, very important, and then slowly lost it - highly intelligent - and just kind of wasted it and blew it all away."
Thanks MamaM. That fits that theme. I very much enjoyed Richards' Life.
The Stones formed in April of 1962...I wonder why no big 50 years celebration? They may mark time from when they first released a record which I think was 1964.
You would probably appreciate this story. We adopted our son from Medellin, Colombia in 1987. He was ~3[no birth certificate]. Like most boys from poor countries, he was "uncut." Well, he kept getting urinary tract infections and our doc urged us to get him cut, since foreskin is a big contributor to those infections. So, @ age 9, the poor boy got cut. I felt SO BAD for my dear son. But, the infections stopped after it!
This is the second photo with Brianna in it and she steals the show. What a cutey pie.
ReplyDeleteYou need to adopt a son and get some balance.
ReplyDeleteThe pic makes me think of Charlie's Angels, and what a good idea it was to keep Charlie off screen.
ReplyDeletej/k, Troop. You look mahvelous. But who wouldn't, with all those good-lookin' ladies close by.
Congratulations!! Nice picture, happy times, delirious moments. Now sell the hell out of your inventory. Sweetness.
ReplyDeleteWhere are the piles of cash?
ReplyDeleteI was told there would be piles of cash!
The combination of "piles" and "Cash" is not allowed.
ReplyDeleteI hope you get closer to your dream of cashing out and moving to Hawaii.
ReplyDeleteAll about the ride, the smiles, the realization of something good, and the connections, with each other and the millions of electronic 0's and 1's coming your way.
ReplyDeleteThe Family photo on the yacht will look great. You can maybe buy a parrot and teach it to sit on your shoulder. How cool would that be?
ReplyDeleteI am hoping for a "Wicked Tuna" esque Trooper York commentator trip when you get the yacht.
ReplyDeleteGay Porno Butcher.
ReplyDeleteYikes.
Did any of you see him chop the guy to pieces?
Really fucking awful.
tits.
Didn't the videos Titus nor did I look for them. Good for the Germans for catching the dude.
ReplyDeleteI have to admit Titus, the guy's looks and persona kind of remind me a little of what you project. Not that you think about chopping people up.
Not that he doesn't, for all we know.
ReplyDeleteOf course, it was only eleven o'clock in the morning, but when you were with Pooh, it was always time for a little Smackerel of Something.
ReplyDelete@MamaM: Brian Jones drowned in her pool. Was smackerel involved? Who knows.

A parrot is not decadent enough. Trooper needs a little monkey that throws crap every time TOP is mentioned.
I am nothing like him chick, although the song Bizarre Love Triangle while playing while he was cutting his ass and eating it.
ReplyDeleteBizarre Long Triangle by New Order is one of my all time faves.
I am not a rice queen either.
I love tits but I do want them attached to a body.
Was smackerel involved? Who knows.

Strange story.

ReplyDeleteRedundant, no?
EBL wrote "Trooper needs a little monkey that throws crap".
ReplyDeleteAnd what do you know, it shows up in the very next comment.
Bizarre Long Triangle by New Order...
ReplyDeleteI made it 12 seconds into the song. Don't think I'm going to catch that act live any time soon.

ReplyDeletePlease, someone make me laugh!!!!
ReplyDeleteOK I wrote that last sentence above like I was there or something. Of course everything I learned about the Rolling Stones I read in book.
Lots of what Richards wrote regarding Jagger is pretty amusing. I suppose Jagger will have to write his memoires to counter some of it. For a guy who allegedly did some many drugs his memory is mazingly sharp.
ReplyDeleteThis made me laugh.
ReplyDeleteBut maybe that's because I am a dog owner.
For a guy who allegedly did some many drugs his memory is mazingly sharp.
ReplyDeleteMaybe "vivid" would be a better term, instead of "sharp".
Also, maybe "imagination" instead of "memory".
That's where Jagger could shed some light.
ReplyDeleteA parrot, an eye patch, a wooden leg...
ReplyDeleteIn the grip of a vivid imagination, it is possible to regard Stan the dog as looking a bit like the Hog Titus is fond of conflating.
ReplyDeleteDid you mean inflating?
ReplyDeleteDoesn't a A blowing or fusing together work here?
ReplyDeleteI have a good size hog.
ReplyDeleteIt's not huge but is had a nice width, length ratio with a large mushroom head.
It's one of the few things I am proud of.
The color is a deep pink with a darker head.
Veins are sparse.
No hair on the shaft.
I once saw a hog that had hair on the shaft and head.
ReplyDeleteCould you imagine?
Typical American Standard Plumbing.
ReplyDeleteNothing to wiggle the ears about as the loaded truck mounts the sleeping hog/dog and takes off for other adventures.
Buzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzums!
ReplyDeleteporci pelosi = hairy hogs
ReplyDeleteI kid you not
I have traveled to many exotic locales and have seen some hogs that were so incredibly uncut.
ReplyDeleteWhy do some uncut hogs have so much foreskin and other uncut hogs don't?
Is the foreskin required to be pealed back in order for them to have an orgasm?
I like to use it as handy pocket to put my gum in while kissing the uncut man.
tits.

ReplyDeleteDoes chewing gum lose its flavor in the manpost overnight?
ReplyDeleteOr does the unique parking locale add distinct and exotic flavors unavailable elsewhere?

I would be interested in a" pole" here on the composition of uncut to cut hogs.
ReplyDeleteI think it is probably 1/2 and 1/2-but that's just my guess.
cut
ReplyDeleteThat's a wrap.
ReplyDeleteI am cut too spinelli, hugs.
