The seventies get a bad rap. When people talk about the decade, they focus on all the embarrassing stuff like Pet Rocks, Watergate, shag carpeting, and disco music. Sure, there was a lot about the 70s that was cringe-worthy. But it also had some of the most colorful, over the top slang of the 20th century. And if you don’t believe us, well baby, you can just keep on truckin. Put on your best polyester suit, crank up the Bee Gees on your 8-track player, and revisit some of the best worst slang of the Me Decade. On the other...

Buffy rebuffed! Instagram users are lashing out at a “thinspiration” post Sarah Michelle Gellar shared ahead of Thanksgiving. The 41-year-old uploaded the inciting Instagram on Sunday, November 18, posting photos of herself from Maxim’s December 2007 issue.

"Careless Philosopher" (1787), a poem by Henry Livingston, Jr., the author of "Night Before Christmas." Music from Henry Livingston’s Music Manuscript – "Hither Dear Husband" from "The Beggar's Opera." People always ask why Henry didn't announce himself as the author when the poem was anonymously published. I always thought of this poem as Henry's answer. This is the first of a set of Henry's poetry, read by the actor who played Henry in the "Trial Before Christmas."

What's the one thing you always wish you had around the festive period? You've already got a case of the finest ales, had a drone last year that you became really bored with, really quick and an unlimited supply of pigs in blankets are a given. So, there's only one thing left and that's to light up your beard with Christmas lights, right?! If you've been blessed with a good chin of facial hair (unlike myself, thankfully) this is surely going to be top of the list. Firebox is selling beard fairy lights that flash (added bonus) meaning they're definitely...

Great song from the 1990s. Enjoy.

Iconic movie, amazing video.

Can someone name this tune? It's the modernistic sounding classical piece that used to be... (not sure if it still is...) played as Hannity's intro theme. NOT the Martina Mcbride C&W song, or whatever it is that in turn took the place of it. I'm referring to the orchestral piece, with chorus. The chorus is sung in some language other than English. It's a familiar piece but I have no idea what it is or whom the composer is. I describe it as modernistic but I'm an amateur... It starts pianissimo, builds to fortissimo and resolution, at least that seems...

Streaming from my site. If anyone has problems with the streaming, please let me know. Announcing two Star Trek videos simultaneously yesterday was the first time I've seen stress on the site. Warning: Criminal Minds is a violent show. The video is about the comfort they give one another to deal with that violence.

Our tune today is , Hard Hearted You and Chickrn Hearted Me, recorded in 1950 by Zeb Turner. THE WESTERNER https://thewesterner.blogspot.com/

A Fish and Game commissioner in Idaho who came under fire for circulating images of he and his wife posing with dead animals during a hunt in Africa resigned on Monday, saying he had made "poor judgments." In a letter to Idaho Gov. C.L. "Butch" Otter, the commissioner, Blake Fischer, said those judgments "resulted in sharing photos of a hunt in which I did not display an appropriate level of sportsmanship and respect for the animals I harvested." While claiming the photos were out of character, Fischer apologized and said he hoped the photos would "not harm the integrity and...

Must watch this Video. It's a very creative and funny political ad ! This was posted on Twitter by the real Larry the Cable Guy.

Gregg and Rusk county reps on a regional transportation board aren’t happy with the lack of progress, reporting and marketing for Toll 49 on which traffic and revenues have slowed.Northeast Texas Regional Mobility Authority directors hope a new on-ramp that opened Tuesday plus the addition of 6 more miles that open Nov. 1 — two months ahead of schedule — can resurrect sluggish toll revenue.Board member Dave Spurrier raised questions, however, about why more hasn’t been done to attract new drivers, especially from Interstate 20.“I’d just like to see an aggressive marketing plan,” Spurrier, who represents Gregg County, said soon...

Miniature horses may be allowed, but squirrels? Not so fast. A wheelchair-bound woman in Orlando was thrown off a Frontier Airlines flight for refusing to part with her so-called “emotional support” squirrel. Frontier Airlines Flight 1612, bound for Cleveland, was set to depart Tuesday night when a “situation” developed onboard. A passenger had indicated that an emotional support pet would accompany her when booking her reservation, but never indicated what type of animal that would be. Turns out it was a squirrel. Squirrels, according to Frontier’s guidelines on emotional support animals, are not permitted onboard: We do not accept unusual...

Hair salon manager Amy Wesselink says her life has been full of “non-stop, endless, ” harassment since former employee Jordan Hunt was recently identified in a viral video as a man who allegedly kicked an anti-abortion demonstrator in Toronto. Wesselink, the manager of Noble Studio 101, said the Parkdale hair salon and its staff have been getting “hundreds” of threatening calls, e-mails, Instagram messages and texts since Hunt was fired last Wednesday. “I’m frustrated because we’ve been getting a lot of backlash as the former work place of Jordan,” said Wesselink, who is married with four kids, ages one to...
