It has definitely slowed down here significantly. Still helps pass the time at work though.

I suppose some of u remember a thread a little while back that there was a debate about Kevin Spacey's sexuality preferences & I don't remember nor care whom it was who stated such truth's.. I never really thought about it because I admire his acting abilities and I always thought that he was a likable guy,u know, the kind of guy if u sat down next 2 him on a bar stool u could have a reasonable conversation w/ the guy ..seems nice.....BUT now I guess we all know the truth & he admits as well as seems remorse about it ,well,he should'nt..BIG FUCKIN' DEAL...this 'aint 'nuthin new to glamourous Hollywood ..Now, I dont condone this activity,nor do I embrace it..he is who he is & he is a VERY good actor of our time,so....Fuck it, Let It Be,Let It Be,,all the accusers ,shut the the fuck up!!

Any Agrees?

Hi everyone! I'm not dead. Can't believe the GBB is still cooking. I retired at the end of 2016. Been fishing, cycling, golf, playing with the grandkids and enjoying martinis more than ever before. Glad to see some of the old gang still posting. Ciao.

Sure glad to hear that!! Also happy to hear you're enjoying retirement and the grandkids.

OMG! Look who' popping in. Nice to hear from you. Retired hu? Enjoy,

Hope you and your family are all well MC. Gosh, it's been years. Nice to see an old friend check in.

Not dead either, but who knows:

Priscilla Presley is 72. Madonne!

Happy days to all who are not dead!

Curious do you need to be constantly playing with the grand kids to be happy? My wife does I don’t need that. Just put me in the same room with them and I am happy. They can play with their friends and I happy. My wife needs to interact them to be happy. I don’t need that from them.

MC, glad to hear you are doing well and enjoying life.

Kirk Douglas turned 101 yesterday! Wow!! God bless him.

TIS

dont be so fast to say god bless him. There has been a story out for over 40 yrs that he raped Natalie Wood when she was an actress trying to make it big. The star of the movie Chaplin was a friend of hers and he told a lot of people about it.

A ne'er-do-well's friend grabbed me while Fairytale of New York was playing and I shoved him. I feel like I was lucky to escape in one piece; I only noticed his friend after I shoved him away. Thank God for small mercies and bouncers.

I'm pretty young, compared to Douglas at least, the only thing I've seen him in is a Tales from the Crypt episode with his deceased son Eric. It's very good, and the circumstances of Eric's death make it pretty poignant.

The episode is called "Yellow".

Seek it out.

Another bombing in Manhattan in Port authoritie building on 8 Ave. caught the mook ISIS sympathizer. Lives in Brooklyn, East 45 Street on Ave N. He is from Bengaldesh. The pipe bomb he build went off while he was wearing it.

He should have set if off in Gracie Mansion. He build it where he works. But no one knew about it.

I do not understand how living in a country with its democracy established over 200 years ago, and now, for the first time in history, suddenly we have one of our former presidents set up a group called "Organizing for Action" (OFA).

OFA is 30,000+ strong and working to disrupt everything that our current president’s administration is trying to do. This organization goes against our Democracy, and it is an operation that will destroy our way of governing. It goes against our Constitution, our laws, and the processes established over 200 years ago. If it is allowed to proceed then we will be living in chaos very much like third world countries are run. What good is it to have an established government if it is not going to be respected and allowed to follow our laws?

If you had an army some 30,000 strong and a court system stacked over the decades with judges who would allow you to break the laws, how much damage could you do to a country? We are about to find out in America!

Our ex-president said he was going to stay involved through community organizing and speak out on the issues and that appears to be one post-administration promise he intends to keep. He has moved many of his administration's top dogs over to Organizing for Action.

OFA is behind the strategic and tactical implementation of the resistance to the Trump Administration that we are seeing across America, and politically active courts are providing the leverage for this revolution.

OFA is dedicated to organizing communities for "progressive" change. Its issues are gun control, socialist healthcare, abortion, sexual equality, climate change, and of course, immigration reform.

OFA members were propped up by the ex-president's message from the shadows: "Organizing is the building block of everything great we have accomplished Organizers around the country are fighting for change in their communities and OFA is one of the groups on the front lines. Commit to this work in 2017 and beyond.”

OFA's website says it obtained its "digital" assets from the ex-president's re-election effort and that he inspired the movement. In short, it is the shadow government organization aimed at resisting and tearing down the Constitutional Republic we know as AMERICA.

Paul Sperry, writing for the New York Post, says, “The OFA will fight President Donald Trump at every turn of his presidency and the ex-president will command them from a bunker less than two miles from the White House.”

Sperry writes that, “The ex-president is setting up a shadow government to sabotage the Trump administration through a network of non-profits led by OFA, which is growing its war chest (more than $40 million) and has some 250 offices nationwide. The OFA IRS filings, according to Sperry, indicate that the OFA has 32,525 (and growing) volunteers nationwide. The ex-president and his wife will oversee the operation from their home/ office in Washington DC.

Think about how this works.. For example: Trump issues an immigration executive order; the OFA signals for protests and statements from pro-immigrant groups; the ACLU lawyers file lawsuits in jurisdictions where activist judges obstruct the laws; volunteers are called to protest at airports and Congressional town hall meetings; the leftist media springs to action in support of these activities; the twitter sphere lights up with social media; and violence follows. All of this happens from the ex-president's signal that he is heartened by the protests.

If Barack Obama did not do enough to destroy this country in the 8 years he was in office, it appears his future plans are to destroy the foundation on which this country has operated on for the last 241 years.

If this does not scare you, then we are in worse trouble than you know.

So, do your part. You have read it, so at least pass this on so others will know what we are up against. We are losing our country and we are so compliant. We are becoming a "PERFECT TARGET" for our enemy!

One year today without cigarettes..

Congratulations DeNiro. In June it'll be 11 years for me. I am so glad I quit. Yet, I admit, even today, I pass someone smoking a cigarette it STILL smells good. Why that is I don't know. I'm never tempted to smoke one again but the smell is still appealing. I tell my kids that and they don't get how that can be. I mean, to them it's cigarette smoke smelling good??Yuk!! Anyway, keep it up. You got this far, it only gets easiert.




TIS

Keep job my friend keep it that way !

Both of my parents smoked as did all of my five brothers and sisters. My dad quit once the Surgeon General's report was published. My sister has a respiratory condition (can't remember the condition) yet continues to smoke. Madonne! Several of my kids smoke although my wife and I never did. Go figure. I just don't understand it.

Thanks Guys. The craving of needing a cigarette is gone but your right TIS they smell great. haha

I can't imagine ever smoking again.

Congrats D

At times like this, the Internet gets it right!

I wonder how many of these women basically had consensual sex in exchange for favours with the man and regretted it.

Being pressured into having sex is not rape for fuck sake.

Lucie Evans met him in a club, and then was allegedly forced to give him head in his office.

How did she get from the club to the office? Did he kidnap her? Why did she go to his office? For a little quid pro quo?

People usually hook up in clubs, no?

The more details I hear about accusations from e.g. Paz De La Huerta and Rose McGowan, it sounds like they had sex with him and regretted it. De La Huerta met up with Weinstein again after the first alleged rape. Why?!

I don't like saying all this because the man is a creep, but you can't conflate pressuring with rape.

Right on

I also think that's an intelligent way of looking @ the situation. More power 2u Moe!

Almost forgot to give this forum a thumbs up for all the years I've been a member. I should of done this last year but was busy and distracted with life. This month will be my 6th anniversary as a member LoL.

Our chick, Susan Sarandon, said these women knew full well what they were getting themselves into with Weinstein.

If a producer, regardless of gender, invited me up to their hotel room, I would be asking serious questions about it.

If a producer, regardless of gender, opened their hotel room door in their bathrobe, I would turn around and leave.

In what other profession do business meetings take place in hotel rooms?

I'm sorry, but if I was on the jury, I would be very much on the fence regarding the charges levelled against Weinstein.

Being a pervert isn't a crime.

I have more to say re: Weinstein, but for now, I just have to say that I got my ass grabbed by a girl in a pub tonight while I was walking to the bar, and it actually felt nice, but, at the same time I would never even contemplate doing that to a woman.

Double standards!
