    In response to which I pointed out Arnie in happy mode, to which RB made the comment which you quote*.

    (And, in rejoinder to which, I deleted the comment "and don't call me Shirley".)

      Looks like I picked the wrong week to quit drinking.

      Sounds and sweet airs, that give delight and hurt not.
      Sometimes a thousand twangling instruments
      Will hum about mine ears, and sometime voices..."

          Airplane! The movie with highlights of Lloyd Bridges' "I picked the wrong week. . ." for cigarettes, drinking, amphetemines, glue. Pure classic.

              Stockhausen's portrayal of a Woman's madness absolutely compelling on H&N last night. Gather his mother was killed by the Nazis for that reason.

              Hear and Now going from stength to strength!
