I just read it online a few minutes ago and had to play "The Girl Can't
Help It" on YouTube.

I saw him in an outdoor concert maybe 10 years ago.
 
I was also lucky enough to see the rare 1969 concert movie "Keep on Rockin' (Toronto Pop)" in the late 1970s. (It was directed by D.A. Pennebaker. Jerry Lee Lewis also performs!) In the very good 1994 book "Hollywood Rock" by Marshall Crenshaw, the movie is listed under "Sweet Toronto."
 
L.R. had six other entries in that book. One was the 1957 "Mister Rock and Roll." (It's a fictional story, starring Alan Freed.) There are 12 performers, but the only other ones whose names I recognized were the Moonglows, Lionel Hampton, Frankie Lymon and the Teenagers, LaVern Baker, and Chuck Berry. One song was "Barcelona Rock."
 
From Michael Shore's 1987 "Music Video: A Consumer's Guide," about the 1985 documentary "Rock and Roll: The Early Days":
 
"...one point the tape stresses is the way white, establishment middle America virulently decried rock 'n' roll on one hand, and on the other did all it could to co-opt black R&B hits with appallingly innocuous cover versions by sanctioned Caucasian artists. I mean, you haven't been really sickened until you've seen Pat Boone, his tie loosened to signal 'naughtiness,' desecrating 'Tutti-Frutti' with his namby-pamby uptight reading."

I misremembered. Actually what it

Richard or his bandmates"

Yep, that is the recipe for the sausage balls and I don't know why he

Because he has an axe to grind, and that makes him careless with truth.

It is one store I have not had to line up to get into.. when they could
let people in. On Thursday I took my wife's car out to give it a run. I
made a meat run to a place about 20 miles from here. It was raining when
I came out and I found out that the driver side w/s wiper was shot. The
blade was peeling apart. I wondered where I could go for a replacement
without having to order by phone and wait a couple hours to pick it up.
The I remembered there was a small auto parts store beside a tack shop
in town that was not far out of my way. I went up to the door. Someone
came to look after me, brought me the new blade, and it was way cheaper
than I had expected.

The only thing your sporadic "hard work" bought you was poverty.
Where's your puritan work ethic right now and for the last 3 years?

Solder is applied to the work piece, NOT the tip of the iron.

Let me guess, Easter or Mother's Day? Yes, you do look like a mischievous

Why don't you like red lipstick?? Personally, I wear it quite frequently.

My dad was very good at reading people, I hope to be as good as he was. The most important part of reading people is knowing what tricks manipulative persons use so you can avoid them. Well, that's my opinion anyway.
 
I know what you're talking about in regards to Mr. Biden. That's an unfortunate result of the structure of his eyelids. At least he doesn't have sleepy pot eyes. Then everybody would think he's a screw up and only suitable for stand up comedy.

It is probably a military thing although I was never in the military. On
this rock, canned meat was also the meat that people had back in the
plantation days - that and fresh fish, poi, and rice.
 
It's a good thing we live on this rock because we can get Spam in most
places. Also things like Portuguese sausage and kim chee fried rice. Stuff
like that is not commonly served on the mainland - except, maybe in Las
Vegas. Weird, eh?

We can get Spam at the grocery store and then do whatever we like with it.
It's in the class of things (like steak) that I don't order at restaurants
because it can be cooked at home just fine.

I could probably find linguica around here someplace, but it would likely
be the Portuguese original and not the Hawaii-modified stuff. I'll stick
with smoked kielbasa or mettwurst. I've eaten all kinds of sausage but
I come back to those two again and again like old friends.
 
Still working up my courage to try kimchee fried rice. I'm not a huge
fried rice fan to begin with. Last time we got Korean carryout, I bummed
some kimchee from my husband, since my lunch inexplicably didn't come with
kimchee.

With restaurants closed for dine-in service, they're providing cold
side dishes and wursts of various kinds, with instructions for
reheating.
 
We got mettwurst, spatzen, and sour potato salad. If I recall correctly,
I made tossed salad to go along with the meal.
 
We also got carrot cake--which isn't German, but they make a very nice
one.

Nice! If I want stuff like that I have to make it -as much as I can:) I
do make spaetzle though. She gave me a fancy cutter :))
 
My daughter and family live in Germany. I don't go over there any more
so I miss it. She will have to try and bring me some nice stuff next time
she visits:)

$13-$20? $8 is the going price around here for prev frozen atlantic
farmed. Red is pretty cheap now, too.

It's fine left out for a few days. It was aged at room temp for 3
weeks. I purposely leave store-made kimchi out for a few days to
ripen.

Limburger is best right after it's expiration date. If you see some
dates 5.5 months out, pass on it. It's still way too young.

John I am not sure if you are aware of this but when you ferment
something there is a good bit of out gassing. These gasses are high in
sulphur so they smell very much like farts. So in the case of
fermenting do not put your nose in it.

Just for future reference, warm kimchi will NOT go bad. The purpose of
keeping it refrigerated is so that the probiotics will not produce
gasses causing smells or problems if left unopened for long periods of
time.
It is so easy to make kimchi. I make like 4 large jars every few
months or as needed. I always keep some available. I have had kimchi
that sat on my shelf for weeks, then put it in the fridge and ran out
of room moved it back to the shelf then back to the fridge. Then I ate
some and it tasted exactly as it should have. If I were you I would
not ever buy the store bought crap because it is most likely injected
with all kinds of chemicals. Kimchi is wonderful when you make it. All
you need is a big bowl, water, salt, and napa cabbage. You can add
various other herbs like ginger and green onions but plain kimchi is
wonderful.
