It's like sitting through the 9th to hear the Ode to Joy.

Copying Beethoven.
Ha’át’íísh baa naniná?
Azee’ Å,a’ish nanídį́į́h?
Táadoo ánít’iní.
What are you doing?
Are you taking any medications?
Don't do that.

The 1st and 2d movements of the 9th are spectacular.  I've often thought that Beethoven had to go take a shit and left the writing of the 3d movement to a fairly untalented student.
The Christian church, in its attitude toward science, shows the mind of a more or less enlightened man of the Thirteenth Century. It no longer believes that the earth is flat, but it is still convinced that prayer can cure after medicine fails.

In a survey more people knew what a "Mrs. Kravitz" was than where it came from.

Watched  my first Lone Ranger shows on the radio.  And it was in full color.
The pictures on radio are *always* better.

Still love The Incident At Owl Creek.  One of the best, if not the best Twilight Zone.

I like the one with Burgess Meredith as the last man on Earth, finding the library then breaking his glasses. Very poignant.

I liked that one as well--but upon further reflection I find I really feel sorry for the character.

He was smug, didn't give a damn about every other person on Earth being killed. Comeuppance executed.
