Annoyed at thread drift

I never seen that movie until about a year ago because I never thought it was anything worthwhile? Guess what I liked it!

 

[loknload]

That's a wrap,,,, Good night allllll!
Have a good night and a better tomorrow!

 

[timn8er]

I wonder if this one is jealous?

My nap was a complete success. I now have enough energy to get ready for bed.

Great art...borderline personalties. Here's The Sower by Van Gogh, ear-ily abnormal in his own right. I seem to gravitate toward solitary figures in a field. Freud would quite enjoy analyzing that...and Van Gogh for that matter.

One of the most evocative paintings I've ever seen was a small Van Gogh in the Armand Hammer traveling collection when it came to a museum here.

It was a monastery garden in a cold winter rain. It just riveted me as few things in that great collection did. I had to keep going back to its wonderful, bleak melancholy, sad but beautiful, with none of Van Gogh's vivid colors.

A good art therapist would have a field day evaluating my response to that weary little gem.

Dammit, bigride, you've provoked me to think, at midnight on a Saturday night.

I wonder what size engine is in Christine, a 318?

 

[bigride]

I am no expert but I seem to remember something about a 413 wedgehead hemi? A genuine expert will be along shortly to correct my poor recollection soon.

I have googled and found no confirmation of this. One site says it is either a 318 or 350 golden commando v8.

I must find this painting. Perhaps this one?

Here's another Van Gogh, A Lane of Poplars at Sunset...and another solitary figure.

Another darker offering from Van Gogh.

Bigride, a couple of books, if you haven't already read them:

The Private Lives of the Impressionists. Sue Roe

Sacre Bleu. Christopher Moore,
for a lighter look at the impressionist and their muse.

Moore is one of my favorite contemporary authors, and I think this book and his following book, Fool, are his best.

 

[boatme99]

Japanese woodblock prints by Hajime Namiki.

 

[boatme99]

And two by Kawase Hasui.

 

[boatme99]

Hmm, I've just reread Mr. Swifts A Modest Proposal, and am feeling a bit peckish.

I wonder what comestibles are on hand in the larder?

Looks like "Slut Shamming" to a Feminist.
Geoff
Who notes everything is offensive to a Feminist, except anarchy, Moslem takeover and Sharia Law, where women a bought and sold like cattle ! Who is confused by it all.

 

[BigCityChief]

Oh no! Is that Monday over the horizon?

I'm taking your lead SFN and having lunch now.

 

[soFlaNative]

I'm taking your lead SFN and having lunch now,

Despite your unfortunate mention of Monday, I'll join you.
By the time I nuke a bacon wrapped Ball Park Angus Beef dog it should be Beer:30 UTZ.

I like the way you think!
