No, I didn't know that. An Obama fundraiser. So I took the dog up there and we both watched Bruce. Thunder Road.   zimmythegeek in reply to ghostwriter45: My dog howled when Bruce played harmonica, to the amusement of the crowd. zimmythegeek in reply to chowomanishere: I never thought I'd see Billy Idol and John Oates on the same stage, let alone being so good together.

A sensitive person is never a cruel person. Sentimental Rousseau, who could weep over a progressive idea, distributed his many natural children through various poorhouses and workhouses and never gave a hoot for them. A sentimental old maid may pamper her parrot and poison her niece. The sentimental politician may remember Mother’s Day and ruthlessly destroy a rival. Stalin loved babies. Lenin sobbed at the opera, especially at the Traviata. A whole century of authors praised the simple life of the poor, and so on. Vladimir Nabokov - "Lectures on Russian Literature"  zimmythegeek: "The Human Stain" 2003. Anthony Hopkins, Nicole Kidman, Gary Sinise. A thriller, a discussion on the roles race and class have played in American history, but most of all, a love story. They don't get any better than this.

Some Evangelical friends told me it wasn't real wine with alcohol, but I see no evidence to support this. And isn't "take this cup" metaphorical? Jesus talking to His Father in the Garden of Gethsemane, found lamb: Luke 22:20 - Likewise also the cup after supper, saying, This cup is the new testament in my blood, which is shed for you. zimmythegeek to lindacduk: In any case, I thought you might like this.
