Sometimes, less is more. He has good manners and dignity. Celebrating that would’ve seemed like rubbing people’s faces in it and coarse — and in an indirect way, taken away from power of the moment? Just a guess.

It's the post-apocalypse. What can you make for us?
Marka Ragnos replied to Marka Ragnos's topic in Off Topic
It probably wouldn't be necessary, but I know how to make stone blades and projectile points (learned in archaeology classes in uni). But I imagine that after the apocalypse, there would still be plenty of kitchen knives lying about? -
I know. I saw it coming, and tried so hard to Kenneth-proof it, but it's hopeless with you shameless lot .

The earth is a wreck. War, famine, plague, etc. have ravaged humanity and ended civilisation as we know it. There's no electricity, the water system is gone, and there may be bandits stalking the land. You have managed to band together with a small group of hardy fellow, desperate survivors. Besides being another mouth to feed, how will you make yourself useful to the group? What's something useful and important you think that you could create or build or collaborate with others to make for your group of survivors, something that might help you all?

Love this list. I can strongly recommend riding a horse. It's one of those animal interactions where you realise that our oldest sense of humanity is partly defined by the tame animals in our lives. You don't need to ride a horse to experience it, but I think the warmth and beauty of a horse and their (frequent) tenderness are all worth experiencing at least once as a rider.

Sorry, just being silly == but you KNOW I'm going to need to bingewatch Sherlock now ...

Never seen a single episode of any or these, or eaten a gray apple, or listened to more than 10 seconds of Arcade Fire.

The missus made an amazing clafoutis for desserts -- off the charts scrumptious -- served with lavender and honey ice cream.

Made white gazpacho as a starter for a little al fresco dinner in our garden with friends last night ... very easy and delicious. It was pushing 30+ outside, so it was nice to have a cool starter.

Very excited to see in the news that ship engineers have worked to invent a new cargo ship that uses environment-friendly WIND POWER for propulsion. Amazing idea.

Away looks like a white shirt washed with the denims.

At this point, it may be a moot point. He's not had enough good form either to make him attractive for the transfer market OR to dispel doubts about his future at Villa. Again, we're all going to have to "hurry up and wait."

There are certain obvious giveaways about the era of the production, but there's also something deeply otherworldly and fresh about this track. Glenda Collins sounds like she's imploring listeners, begging them -- and the slippery quality of the message, putting a religious law into a secular situation -- love that.

RIP … beautiful song

Could be. Understand the doubt, 100% A sustained run of positive form would change my perception, and we may end up, as fans, having to "hurry up and wait" to see if that happens. I don't think any fan could be fairly asked to rid themselves of all doubts, that's for sure.

Last week I asked, "Where is Leon Bailey?" Maybe we just need to keep asking that. Am I the kind of supporter who thought it was time to sell him last week, and now feel like we need to cherish him? I fully embrace my hypocrisy, and if the goals for Villa keep coming, I'll walk around with a smashed tomato on my head, too.

It's hard to argue that he has a very clear role in terms of plans right now. I admire his skill, as I do any elite player and I appreciate his service to the club, but he often seems to be a bit of a vestige these days. You can see the somewhat diminished talent, but where does he fit exactly? I don't see it.

That’s great. Love hearing this.

Ahhhhh. Feels like a shoulder massage. I can relax for a few days now …

Oh, I have to say, that’s just … the best. It’s a brilliant song by two brilliant artists. The lyrics are more concrete and precise than ten years’ worth of many other songwriter’s works.

I want to see the graphic novel set in that universe: “Name your favorite song ever, or your family parishes!”

Chop chop! Lets all gawp at Newcastle (again)
Marka Ragnos replied to Jimzk5's topic in Other Football
That has to be said, too -- it ALL has to be said. It doesn't diminish the point I'm echoing, or remove the need to be reminded of it ... continually. "I bought a guitar from China, so I guess it's OK to pretend Newcastle aren't ethically compromised ..." Not much of an argument. -
It's not impossible to answer, not at all. It's just unsatisfying to answer because it feels like I'm somehow losing all my second-place songs by declaring a first-place song lol. And, as others have said, it changes, too, almost daily. But what doesn't? All said, this has been my most enduring favourite for almost 30 years:

This was like my personal anthem for a few years ... loved it so much. I got to interview Jarvis for an American magazine that was into British stuff back in the 1990s. Very fun and easy to talk to (I remember he was listening to John Barry in the background), but I think I'd find him insufferable these days, but I'm kind of annoying, too, so ...
