You are right Art the site is running slow this week, I do believe Harry is looking into it with the server.
Its a bit of a bug but it does give us time to sip our drinks while submitting our thoughts. EH!

lt could have something to do with the voodoo clock running slow as well by over an hour which seems to increase a little each time ive logged on this week.
Still who cares its Friday let the weekend begin.

Strangely, when a lot of people are on, it seemsto run fine, but I've come in all by myself, and it was going slow as molasses.

Yeah it's been up and down when I visit. SOmetimes slow sometimes just fine.

You boys could be right I was in earlier by myself and it took forever to submit in forum.
Ill see how it works now on submit with 10 users here

It works went straight up


but the clock has lost 1hour.30mins instead of 1hour 21mins.
But as I said before its Friday night end of long hard week. No problem!!

sounds like the clock needs a refreshing beverage now and again too.

superbowl sunday's coming, new york and new england. . .
it got me thinkin', if homeland security arrested a guy on the new england team and accused him of not being a patriot, would it hold up in court?

and you know once i get thinkin' it's all down hill after that so, maybe we should hire a band for this place. nothin' fancy, a little three piece jazz thing. of course they'd be virtual so we wouldn't be obliged to clap or, now that i think of it, tip them.

cheers all. . .

Yes the Super Bowl is coming and thankfully I do not have to watch it. Luckily all the new cool commercials will immediately be on line and I can watch them at my leisure. The most interesting thing about the Super Bowl is that is shows how short our collective memory as a nation is. Every year rumors about everyone flushing their toilets at half time and heart attacks from bad food surface. Same old tired myths but it always creates a buzz. Ah well, look at our president and I guess it makes a little more sense.

i haven't watched a superbowl in years and years and being from new york, it might be a sacrilige to not watch this one. but hey, if i go to hell for it, at least i'll be with all my friends.

I've seen every one since the first one when I was a kid. Now, how many of them that I remember, is a different story. Various substances were involved at the time. Even non-football fans are going to want to watch this one, just for the historical value of the Patriots perfect season. My team got thrown out last week - the Packers.

yes indeed, the games were always easier (and it always seemed like a pre-requisite) to watch with "substances" involved. probably, that's when i lost interest. in my right mind it's all just like a decadent circus (akin to the roman colleseum). does anyone know what the half-time show is this year?

Thankfully, not Prince! This year, it should be pretty good. Tom Petty.

The first Superbowl took roughly 2 hours of television time. And ticket prices averaged $12.50. You can't even get a beer for that , now.

now that's cool, petty';s always been right with me. (i'll catch it later on youtube)

and speaking of youtube, i uploaded a 6 minute TV commercial i'm hoping to run for the gallery on local TV. . .

almost 10 here, time to get on with the day. catch ya'll later. . . .

Yeah I'll catch the good stuff from the game on the internet later. I am more of a basketball fan. I tried to watch football. I just kept falling asleep. Not my cup of tea. I like UFC, basketball, and soccer. That's about the limit of my sports viewing.

Art checked out your video. Good stuff!
Roddy is my fave male singer.

What is it they say about great minds think alike I used that song to open a private viewing of my solo exhibition in Cheltenham, Gloucestershire.
Only I had the artist sing it live and unveil the painting called "Sea of Poppies" while singing "Sailing"

I have video footage I'll try and edit it,to upload online somehow; if I can work out how to do it!!

I think I'll register for You tube now

Thanks for sharing you have inspired me.I really do appreciate it.
Cheers! I'll get the next round in whats your tipple?

Good deal Art. What video editing software did you use? Keep up the good work!

I'm not as keen on basketball, soccer and other sports, because we didn't have teams back in N.O.

heh, if you know anything about Orlando, I can;t really say we have a basketball team either... but I still have fun watching those losers! I only watch soccer around World Cup time. Mixed Martial Arts is the thing I love watching the most. I trained at some of it for a while and I really find in interesting and entertaining to wtach.

With the primaries going on here in the States, I was thinking the other day that the perception in the UK or anywhere else for that matter might be very different than we have over here. I know who has my vote. I was just wondering i anyone even notices this stuff before the elections and if they do who do you guys think is a good candidate??
Cheers.

Here, have a SuperBowl joke. Less than an hour to go.

A man has 50-yard-line tickets for the Super Bowl.
As he sits down, another man comes down and asks
if anyone is sitting in the seat next to him.
"No", he said, "the seat is empty".

"This is incredible", said the man. "Who in his
right mind would have a seat like this for the Super Bowl,
the biggest sporting event in the world, and not use it ?"
Somberly, the man says, "Well... the seat actually belongs to
me. My wife was supposed to come here with me, but she passed
away. This is the first Super Bowl we have not been to together
since we got married in 1967."

"Oh I'm sorry to hear that. That's terrible. But couldn't you find
someone else - a friend or relative, or even a neighbor - to take the seat?"

The man shakes his head, "No. They're all at the
funeral."
