Plus 78s were made of Bakelite or somesuch brittle plastic.
78s were a lot thicker than LPs. They had to be to endure the speed and force needed to play them without breaking up.
A 78 is very heavy compared to a 45. I can't imagine Glen Miller going around Boulder carrying 10-12 78s and a record player without thinking that he was a really strong man.
How I have missed Jon.
eta: I had doubts that TDS could work with this tragic last week. Bless them.
Okay, Prison Break Question:
Was
Michael's plan completely stupid or what?
Don't get me wrong, Wentworth Miller is a very pretty man, even though he's not my type. But
this show is crazy making!
Hec will be by to correct my mistakes shortly.
Nah, that's fine. Though the 16 RPMs were mostly used for non-musical purposes. Like...teaching typing, or speeches. The business stuff Ple alluded to.
It's just standing over there making a clicking sound and soon I will kill it dead.
Jessica is my sistah in appliance homocidal tendency.
So, is this the first new TDS in awhile? I forgot to check to see if it was on last night.
Random: 15+year ago a former friend( I haven't been able to find her since Berlin 3 years ago)/ classic N.O. wild child went on many double dates with Harry Connick Jr. and reported him to be a complete and utter gentleman (moreso than the love of her life at the time. She was very impressed with him. ) This, before I had a clue of his fame. I saw the teevee reports, and that just reinsured that opinion. Opportunistic? Sure. Still a good human? Yup.
I needta go to bed. But can't sleep. Ahrg. Maybe offline will help.
HC Jr. was totally hott with the shirtlessness and compassion.
Ready for bed now. I was pleased that TDS included the
Barbara Bush
cold hearted bullshit. It is unfortunate that they had so much material to choose from this week.
Both TDS and The Onion were good today.
Re Prison Break,
all I know is I'm starting to root for the gansters who want him dead. Sure he's pretty, but his plan seems to be (a) build prison (b) ... (c) escape! And I just want to reach through the screen and shake him and yell "WHY ARE YOU SURPRISED THAT NOT EVERYONE IN PRISON IS NICE TO YOU????"
