Random Thoughts XI (Eleven Pipers Piping)

[BoxsterCy]

Still time warped back to the 1970's. Started when I was watching the Ken Burns Vietnam thingy. Was thinking of asking you guys to come bring me back after you get Pants back from Demon Child but starting to think 2017 is just to ****** up to come back to.

Hanging with Clyde Clifford and spinning midnight vinyl on KAAY.

And the seasons they go round and round
And the painted ponies go up and down
We're captive on the carousel of time
We can't return we can only look behind
From where we came
And go round and round and round
In the circle game

@ImJustKCClone is not a nerd! She's a dren!

(Old Happy Days reference)

Nice job Joanie.

Let me see, President Nixon and Watergate, President Carter fired his entire cabinet, Disco Music, Katelyn Jenner was a man, polyester clothes, The Manson Family, Ted Bundy, John Wayne Gacy, Son of Sam, The Iran Hostage Crisis, Jamestown, Elvis died... you may want to come back.

Did we ever figure out what @ImJustKCClone is counting down to? Is it retirement, more time to devote to the cats?

I figured something out that a nerd would like. At 11:57pm on November 13th, the complete time stats would be:

23:57, 11/13/17. 2,3,5,7,11,13,17. That's all prime numbers. I guess I'm a time nerd.

The countdown times don't add up though and the 1.6 months thing is really throwing me off.

I SAID the numbers were approximate...I was doing it in my head!
Go with the hours (or days). THEY should come out to the same date/time.

Oh, boy. I've been reminiscing about Beaker Street and ol' Clyde for several weeks now. I can remember late nights in my bedroom listening to stuff we had never heard of in the Midwest, including this gem:

And of course, Beaker Theatre was an added bonus. Replays of Arch Oboler's "Lights Out" radio programs - some of that stuff could really creep you out. I particularly remember the episode about the old woman who could turn herself inside out. (Try and do that on TV!!!)

Hey Boxster....if you're feeling a little, retro, listen to this for a bit........

Not to pick nits, but the Manson murders were in 1969. (Of course the trial took up most of the 70s, that's true.)

It comes out to November 17th at 6:00pm. There is a basketball game at that time.

I remember when that song played on the local radio. Must've gotten some backlash from people, because after about a week it was never played again.

Edited to what it came to when I was calculating. I posted it on FB first (I think?) so that might have made the timestamp on here just a little bit off...

Well the schedule says it's either at 4 or 6, depending on if we win or lose.

Guess I'm splitting the difference then. But basketball is not what the countdown is for...

Are you going to keep using that on me for the rest of my life?

True, but here's another alternative.

Jeremiah 11:17 states that Israel was burning incense to Baal. Maybe that's when she's planning on completing the golden calf(t).

Am I the first? Happy Birthday @wxman1 !!

You're probably the first if his birthday is in December.

Friday at 5:00 the week before Thanksgiving. That's almost got to be retirement or vacation. She was just in New Orleans so Vegas or Rio seem like the next obvious trips.
