  1. It's not bad read Ken, but still, I'd get drunk first. Meet you on page 1.
  2. So, anyway. Yeah, I was surfing through Netflix instant streaming section, bored, and I came across an indie film starring Daniel Craig; Flashbacks of a Fool. Hmmmmm 'Bond' in a coming of age indie drama? So I started watching it. It was only OK, but then, there was this pivotal moment when Felicity Jones was doing a panto to 'Roxy Music' 's If There Was Something. I went through a Roxy stage when I first discovered Bowie, and Eno, and Jobeson and Wetton, Fripp, Jamie Cross and all those pioneering alternative rockers from Britain. I am a dyed in the wool mainstream British Invasion to British Metal fanatic but, I loved bands like Roxy and King Crimson because no one in my clique had any clue. They all thought Bowie was literally gay but totally missed the fact that all those sorts were part of a clandestine British art college movement. A movement away from established mediums of paint, brush and stone and used music, fashion, marketing and alternative culture as palette, canvass, medium and gallery all in one package as a 'touring band'. There is the further genius in this thread. I had never been aware of Felicity Jones. Very eerily she could double for my wife at her age then. So, if you're not at least 50, have a copy of Roxy Music's debut disc on vinyl, had met the girl from Surrey, won her and married her despite an ocean between you? Well, I just don't know what to say. Sorry? Would 'sorry' do? http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=q0_nsjeciLs&feature=related You can only be young once. But with a little finesse, you can be immature and maintain a certain innocence forever. I mean, this thread. Surely!
  3. No doubt! What Jeff Daniels said; Michigan Rox. Roxy even. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6iuGiLOy1jA&feature=related
  4. '04 1680 I bought this from Eddie Lee to replicate my old man's 1680. It was caught up in customs, on both sides of the pond. Eddie took care of all that with an apology and a ".........please do not freak out and start PayPal dispute.......I will take care of you." Oh. OK. "What's a PayPal dispute?" I didn't know [censored] from Shinola then. His (my Father's watch) is not a Red Sub, and without mods, comparing the two side by side, it is apparent, the exercise, was a total failure. I still have the watch tho'. And more importantly, a mental image of the Asian dealer on his motorbike, wearing an Elvis wig. In Canada. So, I have that going for me. Which is nice.
  5. Shake your hair girl with your ponytail Takes me right back, when you were young. Throw your precious gifts into the air Watch them fall down, when you were young. Lift up your feet and put them on the ground You used to walk upon, when you were young. Lift up your feet and put them on the ground The hills were higher, when we were young. Lift up your feet and put them on the ground The trees were taller, when you were young. Lift up your feet and put them on the ground The grass was greener, when you were young. Lift up your feet and put them on the ground You used to walk upon, when you were young................
  6. Two pages ago Asim I had quite an appreciation for the thing. Now? Not so much.
  7. I missed this thread first time around. Don't usually clickie on Panerai threads, but that is an amazing 'first'. Impressive. I probably like the watch more than most accurate vintage PAMS. No, all.
  8. Good looking watch. Good value for the money, but this; is the deal breaker for me. I have faith the newly configured 7750 will be used in the Moonie. When? Doesn't matter. I missed the first runs w/domed plexi way back when. It's been five years waiting since. Patience like an oyster. Patience pays in passing zones and 'replica'.
  9. http://www.politico.com/news/stories/0909/27246.html Which is a shame, because, if nothing else, and through everything else, 'Barack Obama' had, for a brief and shining moment there, transcended 'race'. His own. My own. The healthcare debate has been a good debate. It just took Jimmy Carter to get our heads out of the clouds and back looking at things in the proper order; the Black race is down, it will take the White race to help them up. If Jimmy wants to help the president or any of the races, maybe he should just pick up a hammer, drag some yellow lumber into the last century and build another habitat. For humility.
  10. 11 months already? Whoa. In some ways it feels longer. Like, 4 years, 11 months. And still, I feel I've forgotten more about replicas and people and web pages than most will ever know. Just one post here from 'Neo'. That's what this thread needs. And some more cow bell. Woof, woof.
  11. I don't remember. Someone told me on the old RWG. It didn't count in that instance tho' as I was the only one logged on for weeks after RWGjr was built. Oh, I know! Megalomaniac with narcissistic tendency. No, that was that other guy; 'Bullitt'. Damn. Sheesh. That troll. Glad he's burried twenty thousand leagues under RWG. Nice watches. For PAMs.
  12. Thanks 'Lanikai', that's what I wanted to say. But, the 'Larson' thing just popped into my head. All your posts are worth reading. That one just might deserve a second read. Oh, what am I saying? 3X!
  13. Nice! You know, in the wake of Katrina, and since Kanye, then, rightfully exposed, to the world, on CNN, standing next to a bewildered Mike Meyes, that George Bush doesn't care about Black people? I've hung on his every word. I am going to check out Beyonce's vid immediamundo!
  14. Yes. As I said, it's completely subjective. How people will react. It's weird. It's like, I dunno how to put it.........like, all people are different. You know?
  15. He had an engagement broken off recently. Some may say that is not serious, and not an excuse if a reason at all to not fulfill commitments. Then again, some find themselves on that island at the bottom of a rum bottle, or, sitting on the edge of what was once 'their' bed, thinking all sorts of irrational and rash thoughts. Asim will be OK. I'm sure everyone will get their stuff.
  16. Yup. You're in for a pound dude! Just curious. How many watches and which, did you own June 20, 2006?
