It bothers me a little that a lot of my favorite songs are by creeps. Then again who knows for sure?

“Kodachrome” is one swinging song.

WHAT a surprise!!!

I once worked with a sound guy who had worked on a Paul Simon tour... He didn’t have a good word to say about the guy either.

...but it was out so long ago, it was known as a "bitchin' song"...

I love the songs by Simon and Garfunkle. I guess I don’t want to hear their dirty laundry. Just sing...........that’s all., \

I have a Nikon camera, but it is a DSLR.

They took my Kodachrome away.

They quit making Kodachrome a few years ago. Now it looks like there may not be any film cameras or films before long.

Ektachrome was better.

I read the article this morning, and though I feel you’re basically telling the truth, I also feel you’re stretching it a bit. JMO.

Garfunkel ends the interview with a throwaway line: I think I might have created a monster.

How many times have people used this phrase and meant it hyperbolicly?

Also, it is the interviewer that suggests that Simon has a Napoleon complex and Garfunkel kinda sorta agrees with that as a possibility.

Does anyone know how to write honest headlines anymore?

Ektachrome was faster and less red-biased than Kodachrome. I think it outlasted Kodachrome for a few years, and then the digital axe fell.

A few years ago, I bought two cameras I have wanted for a while. I got two like new N90S bodies for under a hundred dollars each.

Now I sort of regret buying them.

No, Art Garfunkel did not call him that. The reporter did, and Garfunkel said, “maybe”.

Not likely. The radio stations used to block out the word "crap:"

When I think back on all the ---- I learned in high school, it's a wonder I can think at all!"
