Evo said:I watched him perform when I was younger, Lightnin' Hopkins was also on the bill that night, I believe. Are you familiar with him?
turbo-1 said:One of my favorite (slightly older than me) contemporaries is Buddy Guy. He made his way to Chicago and wanted to audition with Muddy, and asked for a meal. Muddy stood him to a drink of whiskey saying that he'd be better off singing while hungry. Muddy was killer, as was his bassist Willie Dixon. Many of my local blues friends (in a and called the Blue Flames) backed up his pianist, Pinetop Perkins in his live CD "Live Top". These guys are Mainers that are main-lining Chicago blues and this CD is a killer. Highly recommended.
Barfolumu said:So, I've lurked in the homework and chemistry threads for awhile, posting occasionally, but thought I'd make a go-ahead and introduce myself, since I think I'll be sticking around now. This seemed like a good spot for it.
I got my name from the Mel Brooks movie Spaceballs. Huxley was already taken (my usual name), but this works fine by me.
IHateMayonnaise said:guess :)
Danger said:Hmmm... you love mustard?
IHateMayonnaise said:although i do not like mustard, i cannot honestly say that i hate it. but seriously, i hate mayonnaise
IHateMayonnaise said:but seriously, i hate mayonnaise
Danger said:Strangely enough, real mayonnaise is the only condiment that I can tolerate. I'm allergic to vinegar, and real mayonnaise is made with lemon juice. Same for Caesar salad dressing.
Not saying that I like mayonnaise; I'd rather have butter.
That's certainly unusual. and perhaps even cruel. I think the PF guidelines should be brought up to date with the US constitution (and the end of the middle ages). This thread will probably get moved now, but here is my proposal for a new guideline.Moonbear said:That was the canned tuna. Since you hate mayonnaise, there was no point taking it out of the can

rocketboy said:My name comes from the title of the book "rocket boys" which I thought was an excellent read. That, and I was really interested in rocketry/space/flight when I was in high school and wanted to be an astronaut... still do somewhat.
stickythighs said:Homer Hickam is the author of that novel. Before Hickam's movie October Sky hit the big screen, he lived in the same neighborhood as me (about 1/2 a mile away). It's just a plain old middle class (I wouldn't even call it uppper-middle class.) neighborhood in Huntsville, Alabama.
Math Is Hard said:I'm from Huntsville. I was born there and lived there until I was eight.
stickythighs said:What part of town did you live in? What elementary school did you attend?
stickythighs said:You don't want to know.
Math Is Hard said:I don't remember the part of town, but I think the schools I went to were called Ridgecrest Elementary and Weatherly Elementary.
I remember I used to go to Big Spring park to feed the ducks. Hunstville was great. I was very sad when we had to move away to Florence.
