Lizbot (host) 5:32:19 PM
Hi Dennis!!!
Lizbot (host) 5:33:24 PM
@Dennis - That is probably preferable to Okay Boomer, which is a phrase I am NOT fond of, for the record! I just couldn't resist for this happy-go-lucky boom box! Also, George is the one who gave me the idea, so blame him, Read!
Lizbot (host) 5:33:37 PM
@Christine - Baggu makes everything tastes better!
Lizbot (host) 5:34:02 PM
@Guelo - Nice! Spread out the PRB love!
Readie 5:34:12 PM
Some Boomers really are OKAY, btw

Oh man, this era of Decemberists is really throwing me back in a good way.
Mary Jones 5:51:45 PM
@Liz I really do need to pick up the remasters singles. All my Beatles stuff is worn vinyl and cada from the 90s
Mary Jones 5:52:01 PM
Cada=CDs
Lizbot (host) 5:52:14 PM
@Mary - yeah, I hadn't listened to that one in a very long time! Early 2000s memories!

Lizbot (host) 5:53:53 PM
@Chrsitina - I was not so sure I wanted to spring for the remasters but then that recent collection is really crisp
Readie 5:54:30 PM
My Beatles records are vintage vinyl from the sixties, dear friends...
Readie 5:56:14 PM

Mary Jones 5:57:09 PM
Yep, tonight’s set is killer
Lizbot (host) 5:57:20 PM
@Readie - haha, tell them to trim their lawn some other time! I have a buncha my parents' records, but my mom's Beatles records are beat to hell and my dad's are pristine because he doesn't play his!
Lizbot (host) 5:57:24 PM
Thanks, Mary!
Lizbot (host) 5:57:28 PM

I seem to recall them from last year....
Lizbot (host) 6:41:47 PM
@Randy - All will work well. Actually, since this year's sticker is round, I feel like it would look particularly good on a laptop or guitar!
Readie 6:41:48 PM
I just remembered one...Wondrous Stories from Yes!
DonatingSupportingMember 6:41:49 PM
Haha, good form not to airhorn all over Lizbot I suppose. Those Tap Bells sound intriguing....
Lizbot (host) 6:41:56 PM
@Readie - Already on it!
Readie 6:42:07 PM
LOL!
Readie 6:42:11 PM
LOVE
Lizbot (host) 6:42:43 PM
@DSM - haha, yeah. I reserve the tap-bells for celebrating reaching the goal, but I promise they are easy on the ears, unlike airhorn!
Readie 6:43:25 PM
RESPECT the AIRHORN!
DonatingSupportingMember 6:43:42 PM
Never heard Jack Bruce before, I likey.
Readie 6:43:43 PM

I have not seen wandavision but… I am imprinted with the horror of an “infinity gauntlet” crossover comic in which Thanos reached into Vision and ripped his circuitry out
George Korein 6:52:47 PM
Not so intangible after all
Brian "D" for Donor! 6:53:11 PM
Ok... essplain nation: Readie accidentally typed "pedge" dot com. I joked that I tried to "pedge"... Alternate universe was joke too. Keep them thinkin figgerin out hats on follks haha
Ossy Hyouka 6:54:05 PM
I too haven't seen Wandavision, but yeah, something like that did happen in Infinity War, Thanos tearing out the Mind Stone from Vision.
Brian "D" for Donor! 7:01:52 PM
