| Jul-19-20 | | Boomie: <jessicafischerqueen: What did Johnny Riverman do that he needed to grow a conscience?> He did bubble gum music which was designed for the 12 year old girl market. The folksters raised the bar on lyrics and what songs can be about. Joni Mitchell said about Bob Dylan, "Now we could write about ourselves." |

Good grief. He shouldn't have been running a "12 year old girl market." A scented candle market sure, but he was really pushing it. |

| Jul-19-20 | | Boomie: <jessimess: Good grief. He shouldn't have been running a "12 year old girl market."> He couldn't help himself. They were selling like hot cakes. The general rule about popular music was that the lyrics didn't matter as long as the music was cool. The Beatles rode that bubble bum gravy train to the end of the line. Although they didn't have anything new to say in the lyrics, who cares? They wrote some of the finest popular music ever. However they weren't ignorant of the great change brought about by Dylan and company. Lennon especially tried to inject profundity into his lyrics and he succeeded occasionally. |

"Coquitlam, Very British Columbia" |

| Jul-19-20 | | Cibator: <"Black Sheep," another fine horror comedy from Jackson.> Ummmm .... nowt to do with Sir Peter. He was deep in some legal stoush at that time (2006) over making The Hobbit. |

<Cibator> Are you Sir Edmund Hilary by any chance. If so, you are in good company with the 10 other folks I have asked the same question! |

<Tim> Very good answer. I actually understood that. This was particularly incisive, not to mention accurate: <However they weren't ignorant of the great change brought about by Dylan and company. Lennon especially tried to inject profundity into his lyrics and he succeeded occasionally.> I'm also impressed by your knowledge of "maths": <He couldn't help himself. They were selling like hot cakes.> If I remember correctly, that statement is the logaRhythmicGymnastics/Howard Cosine of an equally infamous statement from <Jimmy Hoffa>: "But the Teamster's pension fund was just sitting there." |

| Jul-19-20 | | mckmac: <Jess: I assume The Mutton Birds are from New Zealand?> With bells on, though these days main man Don McGlashan resides some place called Vancouverville, having married a Canadian lass a few years back. If things ever return to "normal" and you get a chance to see him play live, you won't egret it. The Mutton Birds shoulda been world famous. Our colleague <Cibator> is also a fan, and he knows lots about lots of things. This tune was a big local hit: https://youtu.be/lceOrRb2zn8 |

| Jul-19-20 | | Boomie: "Saanich, British Columbia" |

<Tim> Intriguingly, "Saanich" was named for its founder, <Lord Sandwich>, who also invented Hawaii, if I remember correctly. He eventually got tired of being teased for being named after a popular food item, and changed his name to <Lord Saanich>. It was at this point that he founded Saanich, British Columbia. He didn't stay though. He soon drifted off to join the rest of the hippies in <Nelson>. |
|
| Jul-20-20 | | Boomie: <Wild Jesstures: Intriguingly, "Saanich" was named for its founder, <Lord Sandwich>, who also invented Hawaii, if I remember correctly.> He got the idea from the Samish. I believe it was the pastrami on rye tribe. Here is sciendelicious proof positive.

<Matt> Agree 100% Mutton Birds should be world famous. "The Heater" is an epic track. Reminds me of Velvet Underground and Stone Roses at the same time, which should be impossible. And yet it isn't. https://youtu.be/lceOrRb2zn8 |

<Tim> SHOCKING SCIENCE! I had no idea Friedrich Saemisch was a West Coast Salish people, let alone that they were "dominated by the Tulip Tribes of the Tulip Reservation." Doesn't sound so bad to me though. I like tulips https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Samish |
|
| Jul-21-20 | | Boomie: <Jess Sayin': Doesn't sound so bad to me though. I like tulips> Yes. They are good with fava beans and a nice Chianti. |

Have you been following any of the super GM online events? If so, what do you think about the games played. Did you kibbutz about any of them, or mark some that you thought were fun to play through? |

| Jul-21-20 | | Boomie: <jessicafischerqueen: Have you been following any of the super GM online events? > Not really. I did notice in the Leges tourney, Don Carlsen missed a mate in 4 against Weary Giri. Perhaps it was more fun to slowly pull off the wings and legs. |

<Don Carlsen>? Er you might be thinking of the <Leges Diamond Tourney>. This science will help explain: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=790... |
