17 Gentlemen, pray silence for the President of the Royal Society for Putting Things on Top of Other Things.

I thank you, gentlemen. The year has been a good one for the Society (hear, hear). This year our members have put more things on top of other things than ever before. But, I should warn you, this is no time for complacency. No, there are still many things, and I cannot emphasize this too strongly, not on top of other things. I myself, on my way here this evening, saw a thing that was not on top of another thing in any way. (shame!) Shame indeed but we must not allw ourselves to become too despondent.

32 The Spindletop oil discovery on January 10, 1901, marked the beginning of the modern petroleum industry in the United States, producing between 75,000 to 100,000 barrels of oil per day. This event transformed Beaumont, Texas, into a booming oil town and led to the establishment of major oil companies like Gulf Oil and Texaco.

I like the art of the era celebrating industry. science, and labor. Whatever the intentions of the artists, the Deco-influenced WPA art works for me. Diego Rivera was a commie jerk, sure, but I still like, for example, his "Man, Controller of the Universe." I like the Deco stuff on Hoover Dam, and the WPA art we had in my HS.

One of my earliest, fondest, awestruck, and inspirational memories as a young boy is of my uncle -- a disabled iron worker (bad back injury that turned him into a self-medicating alcoholic) in the late 60s -- driving me around the beautiful red-brick buildings in downtown Butte, MT, pointing out to me all of the various structures he worked on and helped build during his career.

That memory always come flooding back whenever I go back to visit my family there in the birthplace of my parents ...

104 I have a large Art Deco panel right next to me here, made in 1941. 8'X9' fresco plaster, enamel and gold and silver leaf on an oak panel. Rescued it from a building from demolition across the street from Madison Square Garden in 1984. The artist, Louis Ross, did extensive murals for the '39 World's Fair and was a protege of Hildreth Meiere, a woman who helped bring Art Deco to the US. She studied in Paris around 1920. They did a goodly amount of work on Rockefeller Center decoration both inside and out.

I did that, once, when I was in college and our school played in and won the NCAA Frozen Four tournament. Very claustrophobic it was.

139 For those who've never been -- but eventually get -- to Santa Catalina Island (off the coasts of L.A. and Long Beach), they have a wonderful old Art Deco theater called the "Catalina Casino" -- in Avalon, built in 1929 by chewing gum magnate William Wrigley Jr. Despite its name, it's not a gambling facility; the term "casino" refers to an Italian gathering place for social events.

The structure stands 12 stories tall and houses two primary attractions: the Avalon Theatre on the lower level, which was the first theater designed specifically for sound films ("talkies"), and the Wrigley Ballroom on the top level, featuring the world’s largest circular dance floor with a 50-foot ceiling and panoramic views of Avalon Bay.

It served as a hub for Big Band music in the 30s and 40s, hosting legends like Glenn Miller and Harry James, and includes: a restored 1928 pipe organ; original hardwood floors; and a wrap-around Ocean Promenade.

"Larry, the Lewd Lozowick Lama"

[An interwebz search of "Lozowick" revealed a hitherto unknown and interesting connection to our current city of residence:

Louis' son, Lee (1943–2010), was the founder and spiritual teacher of the Hohm Community in Prescott, Arizona, and studied under the auspices of Sri Yogi Ramsuratkumar of Tiruvannamalai, India (1918-2001), Enlightenment heir of the great Indian sage Swami Ramdas (1884-1963).]

Stephen Tyler actually has very strong vocals, that he pushed to the absolute max, hence his recent vocal cord injury. To scream in range like he does and immediately return without being pitchy takes talent. If you hear his vocals in isolation, there is not much that gets engineered, which is amazing with this genre. He does not have the range Axel Rose did (does? He has been hard on his voice, too), but he has pipes under all that flair.

256 Editorial: The death of Jason Arday must prompt deep reflection

The rise and fall of that poseur, and everyone associated with his rise and fall indicates a complete lack of ability to reflect, let alone deeply reflect.

Interesting comments this morning when the prosecution and defense were arguing what to do about this juror. Supposedly the jury foreman's note acknowledged that this holdout juror has expressed doubt but still won't "apply the law".

This doesn't bode well for finding her guilty as charged.

does he know that for a fact or is he just saying things to affect public opinion before a potential mistrial? I believe that he's also said that 11 want to acquit but there's no way he should know that and, if he does, then it should already be a mistrial.

301 Apparently we now have a second group of retarded zoomers getting rescued by SAR in the last month after asking AI for a packing list and route planning for a hike. This time on Mt. Shasta.

To be fair these are the same type of retard that would hike carrying a claw hammer for their tent stakes 30 years ago. Or who argued with me 10 years ago about paper maps (which "aren't real maps, they are just a picture of a map"). It's just that now they're convinced they know what they are doing because omnipotent tiny man in their phone told them what to do.

I also keep seeing these dumbasses use AI to "plan" remote 4x4 excursions around here, with predicable results.

335 Driving to Dr appointment, heard on the radio the judge in the Lindsay Clancy trial is now being called out by women's groups for not allowing medical records to be included in a trial that concerned a Black woman (somewhat similar circumstances, murder? IDK).

There's even more public clamoring about this damn case.

You knew it would happen.

Garland or Dench (huh, didn't know she spelled it "Judi" -- where's Cary Grant when you need him)?

340 In the NFL, the offensive line makes or breaks you.

-can't move the ball- you're fucked
-can't protect the qb- you're fucked
-can't control the clock- yep, fucked

Heard in an NFL preseason game, Aikman and Buck were in the booth and a personal foul penalty was called on a defender for tackling the QB who became a runner for "landing on him with his body weight."

Aikman said something like "I hope the officials are working the kinks out as well because you CANNOT make that call......You just can't."


The NFL sucks and won't be getting better anytime soon.

341 Dallas has got a shit load of Art Deco buildings. And since the city owns them they are never going away.

In a contest between Art Deco and Brutalism, I would cry to have Art Deco buildings.
They both dehumanize, but at least Art Deco has some skill and is sort of attractive and inspirational.
Brutalism is just a boot on the face for ever.

342 Many years ago, I was involved in a civil trial in which I felt the defendant, Toyota, should clearly be found not liable. After the jury was out a good long while, they sent a note out about how to calculate punitive damages. Seeing the writing on the wall, Toyota quickly settled. When informed their services were no longer required, the jury was pissed. They said they weren't going to award punitive damages, they just wondered how that worked.

The one building is on the east side of I35, is abandoned and has been for years, and will stand for the rest of time because it's full of asbestos and is too expensive to have abated so it can be demolished.


My thought is, wait for one of the spring storms to come through, wait for the wind to be just right, then blow the bitch up.

Asbestos abatement is simply spraying it with water when removing to keep dust particles from flying.

Heavy rains should take care of most of that.
