29 I guess this type of painting is called "suggestionism".

Because almost nothing is correct.
Hobo in dark blue is holding & standing on nothing.
Guy down track is about to get launched.
Tracks just sort of disappear.
Don't even know what that signal is trying to be.

41 Zoltan was born in 1898 in Hungary, came to the US in '21, and passed on in '74. So this is a twentieth-century painting. The 1930s, maybe?

Nice detail -- what I'd call really decorating the set.

In The Big Rock Candy Mountains
You never change your socks
And the little streams of alcohol
Come a-trickling down the rocks
The brakemen have to tip their hats
And the railroad bulls are blind
There's a lake of stew and of whiskey, too
You can paddle all around 'em in a big canoe
In The Big Rock Candy Mountains

66 Zoltan Sepeshy arrived in Detroit, Michigan in 1921 wearing a sign reading: “Deliver to 209 Pasadena, Highland Park.” Immigration officials had placed the label on him because he could not speak English. Sepeshy was born in Kassa, Hungary and moved to America to live with an uncle as advised by his father. Prior to coming to the U.S., he had enjoyed a privileged existence as the only child of an aristocratic family. Sepeshy studied at the Royal Academy of Fine Arts in Budapest and simultaneously at the Fine Arts Academy in Vienna.

165 If you look at Van Gogh's earlier work it looks nothing like a 'Van Gogh'. He was trying to copy the style of Rembrandt. I actually think it was quite good. When he moved to Paris he was exposed to the impressionist crowd and found his color palette. Also during this time he painted a lot of still life flowers beyond just the Sunflowers. All which I think are much better.

How people see that character is something of an ink-dot personality test. The Rule of Law types will do back-bends to see him in a good light.

265 I grew up in an Ohio town where from our house we could hear the engine whistles of the freight trains on the main line of the Baltimore and Ohio. There was a large tract of undeveloped land between our neighborhood and the tracks. It was our wild place for playing pickup baseball, hunting rabbits with bows, and just hanging out watching the trains from the tree line along the bank.

It was the 1950s and the railroads were in transition, the steam engines still running, but the new diesels coming on line. We'd hear the hoot way off and say, "is it gonna be a diesel?" I liked the steam engines. The diesels looked to me then as strange as a cybertruck today compared to an F150.

Ford saw Wayne as the everyman. It's kind of key to understanding Wayne's films with Ford.

Wayne's characters were never grand, mythic heroes, they were your next door neighbors, just 6'4.

Wayne killing Liberty Valance and getting no credit is about how the everyman built the west, not members of the elite. But the elite gets the credit in the legend.

She did 3 weeks (out of 4) of 'red devil.' The only bonus was it was a lot quicker than the first round, so she wasn't in infusion for 4 to 6 hours.

She wasn't really aware of the chemo crushing her veins, so when she went for a colonoscopy last week, they had to put the IV in her foot. That was quite painful, she said.

True, but I think Ford's overall thinking must've been in those films that- (and it's pretty much explicitly said.)

That "Wayne's time" is over. He's now the unnecessary man.

That's where the tragedy comes in. There's no room for him in the new world he helped build. Not that he doesn't get credit.

It's both. The Searchers leans more towards the space in the new world, but since Liberty Valance is all about the telling of the story, it's more about the credit.

Your hair will come back. First Lady's head has hair at about 1/4 inch a month.

They put her on Neulasta for white cell. A module to the tricept that would beep, then infuse on it's own.

She had more issues with taxol than red devil. They pumped her so full of steroids to offset the side effects, she had a few digestive issues, so be aware.

You will. It might be really curly but hair almost always comes back. My late first husband lost all of his hair. Even his eyebrows. It all started growing again as soon as they stopped chemo. He was most annoyed by losing his mustache.

Interesting notion. I'm fairly sure of this - there seemed to be an acceptance in media at the time that America was moving into a less noble era. Now, was the previous era as noble as they chose to remember ? Probably not.

366 My second grandson talked more as an infant that he does now at 4. He thought he was part of every conversation. It was so cute. I miss those days. They get so big, so fast.

They do. It feels lie yesterday that Goddaughter the Older was a little football. Next week I'm taking her twin brother to visit West Point as a possible applicant. When did that happen?

Beats the shit out of me. I can spoof music talk, but I know damn little about music. And so God made me a sousaphone player.

What’s the name of a funky 70’s (I think) song where they do a break and sing “Baltimore and O-Hi-O”?

Maybe OHIO PLAYERS O-H-I-O, FROM THEIR ANGEL LP?

371 I guess the Left has pivoted from blaming America for for starting WW2 by our economic sanctions against Japan.

Lately I have been enjoying listening to "I'm Winning", by Santana.

Do not confuse it with "I'm Clinging", by Sarana.

377 For those Railroading enthusiasts here in Ace-Universe, Shorpy.com, a long-time favorite website that is trying to digitalize 9,000,000 photos in the US Archives (I think..?) 1845-1965. They have tons of Railroad photos of all eras of good quality. And hobos too!
Good website for young people and kids to appreciate all the HARD work and beautiful stuff we used to have in this Blessed land. Imagine wearing a 3-piece suit and a nice hat everywhere and doing your job.
