  1. I remember a ufo thread. Probably just the one. I'm always surprised more people haven't first hand experience with them though. seems no one there has
  2. Yes, just assume they're real, then it's easier to do the research. Also, listen to eyewitnesses. Just use your ability to recognize sincerity (some can, some can't) and you'll realize there are an overwelming number of sightings and encounters. Above Top Secret written in the 90's, is a good place to start.
  3. people get hung up on if they're real or not. It's just like the fake climate change debate, fabricated to waste time and stop people from following truth
  4. Great movie, great music and great ending (the long walk down the boulevard).
  5. Enrique Granados recorded this piano roll in 1913. He made few recordings, the last ones (again piano rolls) in NY in 1916. He was to sail to Europe (Spain?) afterward but just missed his reservation. The only alternative was to go to Britian first and connect from there. He didn't get that far. A German U-boat torpedoed the ship and he drowned after diving into the water to rescue his wife. I like dance number 10 but the recording is "through the air."
  6. I work with some of those older filipinos. they are unanimous in sayihg that we have it exactly upside-down and that the elder Marcos was the best president they ever had. The conviction with which they said it made me think I'd better do some research.
  7. b) They appear in the Book of Enoch as the Watchers -- a great read I completely agree with your A. Evil is the relative absence of Good.
  8. A) The contest between good and evil was the contribution of the Zoroastrians to what would become Christianity. In reality good always triumphs -- eventually -- just not on the nursery worlds of time such as ours. This is where we are left without coercion to make our own choices. b) Jesus did not come to meddle in our affairs so much as to give us a new revelation of the nature of God. c) Save us from death ... d) ...so that we can move on to the next world -- the afterlife. e) It's like walking through a door, no "dead" time in between, at least not from a subjective perspective. And yes, we will be on one of the "mansion worlds" which marks the real beginning of our journey -- pilgrimage -- to grow in spirit until we can stand in the presence of God. f) His purpose was to further reveal God the Father through his acts and words, which could be called teaching -- and healing for that matter. The doctrine of Jesus being the sacrificed in order to clear humanity of sin is the invention of Paul. Jesus didn't have to die to complete his bestowal mission, it just worked out that way. Of course he could have prevented it but he chose to live and die as a man so that men can relate to him as one like them, tested in all things. God is Infinite but the time/space universe is not, and we are most definitely finite at this stage. We can't possibly understand our ulitimate purpsose but we know at least we can participate in the evolution of the God of experience through, again, our choosing to do God's wil -- this is the gift of being born so low; we can each do our part to bring the Infinite into existence. We don't instantly become a spiritual being when we die. In fact, we are exactly the same as far as our spiritual status goes. We've just made it over the first hurdle. And by the way, Jebus was an earlier name for Jerusalem. And the people who migrated from there that held on to certain religious beliefs were called Jebusites. (for another poster)
  9. Yes i was remembering that, but i think it would be too controversial now to give, say, Miller the C wouldn't it?
  10. So do they add another A or give someone a temporary C? i know, just an A, if anything, but who would it be?
  11. https://www.newyorker.com/magazine/2019/04/08/the-day-the-dinosaurs-died
  12. Norm, Bob and Gilbert gone within a calendar year. Time to watch Norm's podcasts with those two yet again. Oh, and the other Bob -- Einstein. They were all part of my favorite comedic niche.
  13. Now I'm calling him Pud. I don't want to but it just sticks in my head. Thanks for nothing. Is Pudko better or worse?
  14. I'm sure both teams are looking at the three-games-in-a-week as a rematch of their bubble series. Do we win only if we sweep?
  15. How about inverting the standard goalie taunt? Go up a minor third (like the beginning of O Canada) instead of the usual down? demKO demKO demKO. Could be uplifting. Would make me laugh anyway -- in a good way.
  16. Just realized who he reminds me of. Errol Flynn ended his career in Vancouver, hope JT does too
  17. I still think we should have kept Irbe. On the other hand I was sitting behind him that fateful night he was ventilated for 11 goals... you know, when Bertuzzi killed Moore.
  18. that's what i was wondering. I haven't heard any talk about it all this time
  19. Hard to know beforehand at what rate the Sedins would decline. But that reminds me, where are they? Are they completely out now?
  20. Yes I notice that too, always the right levels for the intensity of the play, which is better to me than mere narration
