Things That Rightfully or Not Bug Me
Very nice picture. I just googled him and definitely remember him via an older picture I saw on the web. He died in 2005.
Myron Floren's music will never die! Lutherans gone wild!

Mmmm.
Actually, Clark, I did think of you while watching the Grammys and wondered what you'd have to say about the Foo Fighters.

Not my cup of chai...
What exactly is it about Dave Grohl that has elevated him to icon status in recent years other than the years he spent on stage staring at Kurt Cocaine's scrawny ass?
I don't get it.

See? Catherine gets it.

I wouldn't know a Foo Fighter if it bit me in the a**...
My wife brought home an Adele CD last night.
She hates the Who and I married her anyway.

He's not an icon. He's a famous musician, yes, because he has toured and released albums steadily since the band's inception, putting out solid, hooky, radio-ready arena rock. He wouldn't be a famous musician, a celebrity, or an icon if he hadn't put in the work and put out those songs. Sure, Nirvana got his foot in the door in terms of a record deal for the Foo Fighters, but he hasn't been lazing around milking the Nirvana teat.
Again, I say this as a non-interested party.
What's picking me now is I don't know how to put a picture in my post, like everyone else... Can anybody help me?sniff, sniff...
And what about Sir Paul's Grammy performance? Bugged?

Someone has explained that somewhere here....Scout is a good person to ask, I believe it was explained to her. Scout?

Ok, I found this in another group and it seems like a good explanation, plus filled with lots of lovely photos of apples.

Oh, cool! Thanks, Lobstergirl, I'll see if I can make it work.... you da best! ♥
Okay, I was this cat when the Rubik's Cube first came out... I haven't picked one up since...
Feels good, doesn't it, Glenda? Hayes in the Mystery, Crime, and Thriller group gives the best instructions on posting pictures, personal photos, etc.
Scout wrote: "Feels good, doesn't it, Glenda? Hayes in the Mystery, Crime, and Thriller group gives the best instructions on posting pictures, personal photos, etc."It really does, Scout, lol. I feel like some kind of techie person... Thanks for the tip, I really am a goof at tech...
Now I'll be driving everyone crazy with random pictures. I'll end up starting my own " glenda's pointless and never-ending pics" ;o)
Lg pointed you to the directions, and Hayes gets the teaching credit. Looking forward to more pics from you, Glenda.

That rabbit looks way happier than I did this morning when I walked into Publix and found that they'd rearranged the store. It bugs me when they do that. I can only imagine how older folks who have a little dementia going on feel about it.
It bugs me when people make assholic (new word) comments because they're grumpy, and I know they are stupid statements but I still end up feeling like shit.I want to be impervious to people's venom.

I feel better, starting a new word trend :)

It's a bit of an oxymoron, isn't it, Catherine? The term "common courtesy"... It's really not so common anymore... ***sigh***
Mod
Oh, and if you're walking two or three abreast, you need to narrow it down to single file if someone is coming in the other direction. Common courtesy. Learn it.
With all our technology I sometimes think a lot of people are just drawing in on themselves, becoming a universe of one.
All of those toilet paper ads with the bears bug the hell out of me. Starting with the slogan, "enjoy the go!" and proceeding through the strange ways that they seem to think people (or bears?) use toilet paper.
Mod
I also don't understand why they think that there's a huge problem in society with people (or bears) somehow walking around with little pieces of toilet paper stuck to their butts. I had no idea this was an issue. Was the baby bear trying to shave his butt?
Those commercials are pretty dumb. I'm also bugged by the commercials on the news channels about uric acid and gout. Has there been a sudden surge in cases of gout in the U.S.? Why is every third commercial on MSNBC or CNN about gout?
I think a lot of commercials on news channels are aimed at people who are perceived to be home all day with disability or illness. Diabetes testing strips, catheter supplies, etc.Speaking of which, another peeve of mine is that requirement that advertised meds rattle off their entire list of potential side effects. All of those commercials go "Do you have X problem? Fixyuzium can help! It may kill you, so see if your doctor thinks Fixyuzium is right for you. Also, while it may cure your flatulence, your nose is likely to fall off your face. But hey! That's a small price to pay to avoid the shame of silent farting."
I dislike pharmaceutical commercials, in general. They're just not entertaining enough.
So many seizure med side effects are devastating. Confusion, exhaustion, loose teeth, gums that grow uncontrollably, extreme toxicity. All for something that potentially controls the problem but doesn't fix it.
Nothing would please me more than to see Flo from the Progressive Insurance commercials torn apart by hyenas or Nile crocs.
Clark, reality TV could be so much more interesting if they let people like you do the programming.

Most of them are actually sitting on the beach, in their side-by-side Cialis bathtubs. Waiting to get hard. By the way, how do you have sex if you're in separate bathtubs? Shouldn't they be in one large tub?
I hate the KFC commercial where the over controlling husband comes in to accuse the clerk of hitting on his wife because he sold her chicken and fries for $14.99. It's so wrong on many levels - from the jealous controlling husband to the idea that a low price is a way to hit on women.
Somehow this is supposed to make me want to buy KFC?

Reminds me of the I Love Lucy shows where Lucy and Desi sleep in separate beds.
Those Charmin bears sponsored Poop-apalooza - extra nice portable bathrooms - at our Harborfest.
The title of this thread often bugs me. And the griping about assholic comments.

Clark wrote: "Nothing would please me more than to see Flo from the Progressive Insurance commercials torn apart by hyenas or Nile crocs."Mr. Angela shares your sentiments, Clark. Of course, he acts like such a jack-ass when the commercials come on, sadly thinking his antics are humorous, that I want to kick his ass before the commercial is over.
Personally, I loathe the new freecreditreport.com commercials. Tell me.......what the hell was wrong with the original 'band'?
I agree that the bears with the toilet paper hoarding asses are getting tedious.
There are two commercials that make me hit the mute button or change channels pronto. I can't stand very loud commercials. One is a local NYC car service commercial. The guy screams, and I do mean screams, TAXI ! as the camera pans in on his wide open mouth.
The second is a dog food or dog bone commercial. I don't stick around long enough to find out. The dog runs around screaming, BACON !

Laugh if you must, but Myron Floren played the accordion with enough horsepower to change the weather. Can you imagine that sucker plugged into a Marshall stack? Wunnerful, wunnerful...
