9095. wabbit - 2/28/2015 4:50:04 PM RIP Mr. Spock 9096. arkymalarky - 2/28/2015 6:29:16 PM Told my eighth graders that yesterday and they had no idea who I was talking about. Sigh. 9097. judithathome - 2/28/2015 11:41:53 PM OMG...not even with Zachery Quinto playing the "young" Spock???? 9098. arkymalarky - 3/1/2015 2:36:08 AM No. These kids were born after 2000. My older kids would know and I figure out these will later due to what they're exposed to online, based on what I've seen over the years. They pick stuff up between Jr high and about 10th grade. 9099. arkymalarky - 3/1/2015 2:38:41 AM But it's hard to interact using references. They're fun in other ways, tho. I had a science teacher colleague who told her 7th graders she had a flea's kidneys in an empty jar she had in her room. 9100. Ms. No - 3/3/2015 2:32:13 AM Yeah, I'm getting to the point where kids only know some of my references if their parents immersed them in 70's - 90's pop culture. 9101. judithathome - 3/6/2015 9:15:31 PM Okay, this a great lesson: Love Has.... 9102. judithathome - 3/6/2015 9:37:22 PM And another: this is a great outcome from that BS that ate Twitter and the internet and cable news last week: Why Is It So Hard To See Black and Blue? 9103. Ms. No - 3/8/2015 3:06:33 AM I love that first one --- that's on the 3rd Street Promenade in Santa Monica. I got misty watching it, and that song always gets me going. If you've never hears all of it, don't let the fact that it's sort of hip-hop distract you from the lyrics. (unless you're a fan of hip-hop, in which case it won't bug you at all.) 9104. judithathome - 3/8/2015 7:54:00 PM I got misty watching it
Me, too...and no worries about the music. If it "gets" you, YOU get IT. 9105. wabbit - 3/15/2015 7:34:56 PM RIP Gene Patton
9106. wabbit - 3/15/2015 7:39:14 PM Gene Gene the Dancing Machine 9107. judithathome - 3/15/2015 8:41:53 PM Awww....at least he outlived everyone else in that clip! 9108. wabbit - 4/5/2015 8:34:48 PM Happy Easter, Happy Passover, Happy New Year to those who celebrate Theravada.
I'm watching The Bible. Reasonably well done, overwrought, but okay television, the OT's Greatest Hits. But is it a documentary? Comcast needs to add docudrama to their category listings.
I didn't know Roma Downey was married to Mark Burnett. 9109. Ms. No - 4/6/2015 3:33:55 AM I had to laugh when I saw a trailer where some critic was claiming that A.D. is "House of Cards meets Game of Thrones."
Seriously? Has this person ever seen a single episode of either of those shows? 9110. arkymalarky - 7/3/2015 3:23:37 AM Every time I see the Step Up movies I wish I had learned to dance when I was young.
Step Up series 9111. judithathome - 7/21/2015 11:02:27 PM WOW...props to AT&T for the "It Can Wait" campaign...mother in car with small child in kiddyseat in back...mom looking at her phone while driving on a bucolic street turns to look at the kid and says "Everyone loves the picture I posted of you!" and BAM...her car hits a dump truck head-on.
The ad starts in slow-motion of everyone's reaction going in reverse...
Quite....impactive!!
Close To Home 9112. judithathome - 4/21/2016 7:33:21 PM Prince dead at 57..... 9113. arkymalarky - 4/22/2016 1:23:57 AM So bummed 9114. Ms. No - 4/22/2016 6:34:43 AM A real loss. A great artist and phenomenal guitar player. He was the whole package. Nobody like him and not likely to be again. Purple Rain was the first (only) R-rated movie I ever snuck into.
