So excited, today I went to Half Priced Books and found Don's [I]Building the Perfect Beast[I], Glenn's No Fun Aloud and the Miami Vice Soundtrack on vinyl. Also found Fleetwood Mac's Mirage. Can't wait to listen to them when I open the record player Santa got me this year.
Now that's a productive trip! ;)
This reminded me of Glenn:

I was playing the new Peggle game on XBox One, and
right before the text bubble popped up, I was like ohh are those eagles? cos they were moving up and down like birds flying...even though they didn't even really look specifically like eagles
then the word bubble popped up, and I was like AHahahaha! YES!
the guy on the left of the screen was supposed to be like the Dude from Big Lebowski I guess haha
Yep, that's the reference, too funny!Quote:

Cool Kingston! I love that!
It's weird how sometimes the world synchronizes around you like that. I had a similar experience years ago, but not Eagles-related. I was driving to work one morning listening to Tool's Lateralus and just as the title track came on a car changed lanes in front of me and the license plate read LUCKY93, which isn't a Tool reference exactly, but close enough. ;)Quote:

Cool, Hotel California!! I want to see that movie.
So I was just finishing up ROB LOWE'S autobiography - wouldn't say I'm a huge fan, but my brother and sister-in-law read it and said it was entertaining and it was, I sort of couldn't put it down. I def. recommend it. especially if you were a teen in the '80s. Anyway, he was talking about The West Wing (forgot he starred in that!), and he said his favorite episode was "Someone's Going to Emergency, Someone's Going to Jail" from the second season. They changed Somebody to Someone, but it sure reminded me of Don! Aaron Sorkin must be a fan.
I was watching an episode of the old sitcom WKRP in Cincinnati last night. There was a huge poster of Randy on a door.
Okay MC and SG - Those are both very cool stories! :thumbsup:
Sweet!! :thumbsup:Quote:

Yep, bf - I do the same kind of thing all the time.
I was watching our local news a few nights ago, and a local sportscaster took a page out of right out of Chris Berman's book - he was showing the highlights of the Saints/Eagles game and said that the Eagles were going to have a 'heartache tonight' because they were 'already gone'. Of course, I loved it, and thought that I'll be tuning in to that station for all of my local sports news from now on. :grin:
oh man..love that! I would've squealed with delight hahaQuote:

Love them both! We were watching a documentary last night featuring a woman married to an Irishman. She was originally from Detroit. Hubby looked a me and said 'that's where Mother is half a word....? Right.'
AWESOME!Quote:

I was watching Dogfight (1991 movie starring River Phoenix and Lili Taylor) and there's a scene where she's listening to a Joan Baez record. Silver Dagger is playing, and all of a sudden I was like Whoa..wait a minute...that was a verse from Come All Ye Fair and Tender Ladies!
I did some research...I was unaware of the history of that song..and all of these little connections...love it!
They even mention the Eagles singing it before Take It Easy on the wiki page: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Silver_Dagger_(song)

Joan Baez is such an angelic singer! Thanks TH
she IS...I love herQuote:

Every time I heard She's A Way on the radio, I think of Don singing that song at the Kennedy Center Honors.
Last night I was watching Island Hunters on HGTV and the realtor met a couple at a Sunset Grille on Marathon Island in the Florida keys! :cool:
Watching my Pens take on the Florida Panthers, which of course always makes me think of the Eagles, since they sponsored their training camp a few years back.
I was lying in my bed and thinking of a stupid Finnish song for some reason and it has a weird frase "HC weather" in the lyrics, made me think of Hotel California, though I have no idea , what it means in the songs context:eyebrow:
I have a student named Dalton, and every time I look at his name on the roll or on an assignment, the first line of the song comes into my head!
oh boy..same thing would happen to me!Quote:
