The vast majority at the time considered it a dark satellite. Nothing since that time has changed.
I remain doubtful. This guy is grasping at straws.
This guy is grasping at grants.............................
Good capture of one of the few moments that changed movie history.
I have never been able to change history. I do, however, change the future from time to time..................B^)
Dang it,I wish u were wrong but I fear u r correct. It means such bs projects will continue.
I once had a neighbor that was some kind of research scientist at a university.
I asked him what he ‘researched’.
He said, “Ways of getting grants to continue my research, mostly.”...................
Billy Joel is one of my favs!......................
I worked at such a place when I was in college. Those people are brilliant.
Yes, how they keep that money flowing never ceases to amaze me.................but considering the IQ of your local Congress-critter it should come as no surprise...........
I used to dislike his music until I watched ‘The Boy’s recently on Amazon.
Perhaps the dude
abides.
Hey, congresscritters have enough emotional iq to get elected. That’s sumthin. It’s rare.
“The Boys”
I really hate autocorrect.
Really.
No, really.
Really, really.
And even more than that. >
” The Boys “
I’ve liked his music ever since “Piano Man”...............
It’s nine o’clock on a Saturday
Regular crowd shuffles in
There’s an old man sittin’ next to me
Makin’ love to his tonic and gin
He says: “Son can you play me a memory?”
I’m not really sure how it goes
But it’s sad and it’s sweet and I knew it complete
When I wore a younger man’s clothes
La-la-la de-de da
La-la de-de da da-da
Sing us a song you’re the piano man
Sing us a song tonight
Well we’re all in the mood for a melody
And you’ve got us feelin’ alright
Now John at the bar is a friend of mine
He gets me my drinks for free
And he’s quick with a joke or to light up your smoke
But there’s someplace that he’d rather be
He says Bill I believe this is killing me
As a smile ran away from his face
Well I’m sure that I could be a movie star
If I could get out of this place
Oh, la-la-la de-de da
La-la de-de da da-da
Now Paul is a real estate novelist
Who never had time for a wife
And he’s talkin’ with Davy who’s still in the navy
And probably will be for life
And the waitress is practicing politics
As the businessmen slowly get stoned
Yes they’re sharing a drink they call loneliness
But it’s better than drinkin’ alone
Sing us the song you’re the piano man
Sing us a song tonight
Well we’re all in the mood for a melody
And you’ve got us feelin’ alright
It’s a pretty good crowd for a saturday
And the manager gives me a smile
‘Cause he knows that it’s me they’ve been comin’ to see
To forget about life for a while
And the piano it sounds like a carnival
And the microphone smells like a beer
And they sit at the bar and put bread in my jar
And say man what are you doin’ here?
Oh, la-la-la de-de da
La-la de-de da da-da
Sing us the song you’re the piano man
Sing us a song tonight
Well we’re all in the mood for a melody
And you’ve got us feelin’ alright

Piano Man lyrics © Joelsongs\\
The dude could write. I dunno if that means he abided, but props to him 4
the writing.
Once I used to believe
I was such a great romancer
‘til I came home to a woman
I did not recognize
When I pressed her for a reason
She refused to even answer
It was then I felt the stranger
Kick me right between the eyes
Yes, I am a lyrics freak.
I love his lyrics.....................
