40 My wife likes how lush Rousseau’s l landscapes are, we have a couple prints. He’s good with animals and jungle. With people though, look at their feet - you won’t see any. Rousseau couldn’t figure out how to draw feet, so none of his people have any.

71 Reminds me of the dog walk yesterday: watched a small hawk hunt a squirrel on a big cottonwood tree. The hawk would jump to one side of the main trunk - and the squirrel would dash the other way, then the hawk would fly to an opposite outer branch, and the squirrel would duck again. Watched for a while, but didn't really want to see how it ended. . .

Just for fun, listen to the Chubby Checker song, "Lovely, Lovely." You might wonder, "why does this sound like a sideways rewrite of 'The Lion Sleeps Tonight?'". It's because the Tokens (who sang 'Lion') did backing vocals in their best 'Wimoweh' style.

NbNW has been called the blueprint for The Man From U.N.C.L.E.

Carroll as a tweedy, professorial spymaster. The main difference is that in the Hitchcock film, the Innocent and the suave well-dressed hero are the same person -- whereas in the TV show, the latter was Napoleon Solo.

195 Tallulah Bankhead was mentioned last thread - starred in a 1944 Hitchcock movie, Lifeboat. Each morning the cast would have to climb a tall ladder to the top of a large watertank which was serving as the "ocean" their lifeboat was in. Tallulah attracted a lot of attention on the ground because she wore short skirts and no underwear on her climb every day.
Some of the women on set complained to Hitchcock about the scandalous daily spectacle, and Hitchcock famously quipped "well I don't know if this is a matter for the costume department, makeup, or hairdressing."

203 Tallulah Bankhead was mentioned last thread - starred in a 1944 Hitchcock movie, Lifeboat. Each morning the cast would have to climb a tall ladder to the top of a large watertank which was serving as the "ocean" their lifeboat was in. Tallulah attracted a lot of attention on the ground because she wore short skirts and no underwear on her climb every day.
Some of the women on set complained to Hitchcock about the scandalous daily spectacle, and Hitchcock famously quipped "well I don't know if this is a matter for the costume department, makeup, or hairdressing."

There's a Dorothy Parker anecdote: On the night of a Broadway premiere, DP sent the lead actress a telegram: A HAND ON YOUR OPENING AND MAY YOUR PARTS GROW BIGGER. I can't recall if the actress was Bankhead or not, but it sounds like the kind of legend that grew up around both women.

My wife and MIL set me up for something like the birds. Was going to feed her horses (my wife and MIL were visiting relatives out of town). She neglected to tell me that a crazed bird with a nest had been attacking anyone going up to the old barn to feed teh horses. That crazy bird kept dive bombing me while I was simply trying to get the feed out of the shed for 4 hungry horses while I was under aerial attack by just one crazed bird.

When I complained after the event, they both laughed at my obvious trauma and told me they forgot to tell me while giggling. A likely story.

=======
In these cases, these statutes bypass the Senate rules on filibusters due to the Senate agreeing to pass them in the first place. Amended the Senate rules in these small instances formally rather than leaving it up to the Senate. Regarding budget bills in general, it is for the majority leader of the Senate to invoke reconciliation process to avoid filibusters. Right now, Thune has not apparently invoked it for the CR so it will need Dem votes to pass.

That puts the Dems in charge as to whether there is a shutdown or at least 8 of their members have to walk the plank. If they shutdown the government, it gives Trump more power to decide which is essential and thus funded under existing statutes and which is not.

House passing the CR was a big deal despite some sourness here and Massie (and his mentor) Rand Paul are in the wrong for voting against it. Rand has announced opposition to teh CR but as of yet has not voted on it.

Well he did apparently drive the snakes out of Ireland so he might be able to intercede for the Lord to grant your prayers.

No; I was once. I still don't have any problem in asking saints to intercede for things. I'm not praying TO them. They're not God ( I'm asking them to pray and yes of course I can go to Jesus directly and do, but we have a song in our hymnal that refers to "friends on earth and friends in heaven. " Since St. Patrick was far holier than illl ever be I think I can ask him for a favor from
God for Ireland.

Lots of people have been noticing that is something American culture has lost since somewhere around the 80s and 90s. There are no love or longing songs on the radio any longer. Only songs about hooking up. Is it a cause or symptom of this rotting culture?

Related, I'd bet it's hard to find a woman under 40 that has received a love poem from a smitten young man. 20% or below, probably much less.

On the other side of that, I bet 80% of men have written love poems. Maybe horrible ones, but the act still counts.

Curiously, if you don't mind answering, it is my conclusion from reading the Bible and ancillary materials that Jesus serves as a unique intercessor between us and the Father because he is a high priest in the New Covenant. So when we pray in the name of Jesus to the Father, we are invoking a powerful intercessor to make sure our prayers are heard.

Yes, he is totally unique but I still don’t mind asking some saints to ask a favor of him as well. Somehow I don’t think Jesus would mind me asking a favor- the favor of prayers to him from people who are much holier than I am, but once again/
- NOT from you- but sometimes these discussion
slog into acrimonious debates which I dislike. If someone confessed
With their their mouth and believes in in their heart that Jesus is Lord and that God raised him bodily from the dead and they want to follow him I think they’re a Christian.
