    Been To Any Good Gigs Lately?

    Last gig I saw was Monaco Blues Band, in Stockholm. They played OK but way too loud. That was in 1983

    Once Upon a Time in the West (1968), directed by Sergio Leone. I like this film very much. I watched it 4 times in a row. Bronson was superb

    Teemu Selänne's mum has died tragically at the young age of 81. Sad news!

    I don't understand the old knight who had been kept alive for seven hundred years by the power of the Grail. What had he been doing all those years – alone – without going mad?

    Don't forget Indiana Jones and the Temple of Doom in which Indy reaches "the innermost cave" or the central crisis of his adventure, where he must undergo "the ordeal" where he overcomes the main obstacle or enemy, etc. Having found bliss and enlightenment in the other world, Indy doesn't want to return to the ordinary world to bestow the boon onto his fellow man. But Shorty breaks free and burns Indy with a torch, shocking him out of the trance. Next there is the Magic Flight and so on. George Lucas and Steven Spielberg have found the Formula which makes money fast.

    The Dead of 2018

    In 1976 he thought he'll win but Viren (of Finland) was faster. I think he never got over that. I watched that finale with my brother (RIP)

    Helen Reddy

    According to her biography she believes that Elvis was Tutankhamen reincarnated. For example, both married 14 year-old girls; both lived in Memphis; both toured the USA extensively (??); both died young and both experienced devout worship after their death. She explaines that the Jordanaires provided background vocals for Elvis and the Jordan River runs along the border between Jordan, the Palestinian West Bank, Israel and southwestern Syria, which isn't far from Egypt.

    Predictions not death anyone else feeling psychic

    I could be genetically psychic. A long time ago my granddad (a Christian) told my dad that he believes in dowsing (also known as divining or water witching) to find water wells. They did a test and walked around a field. My dad held my granddaddy's wrists to make sure any cheating is impossible. Suddenly the rod really bent until it broke.

    This "joke" (?) happens in the Batcave. Batman suffers from clinical depression. He feels that their crime fighting is meaningless and doomed to fail. Everyone dies. Batman wants to suicide by Batmobile exhaust fumes. Robin decides to use the Batcomputer which prints out the only possible cure. Robin reads it and shouts aloud: "That's it! Baton! Holy Anal Swirl Vibrating Insertable Police Baton!" OK I can't tell jokes - but I tried

    A Joke

    God walks into a bar. Everyone asks God, "My God, I love my family but we all are living in poverty and now are dying of cancer and sudden heart attacks, what's the meaning of life?" God farts, spits and says: "A double bourbon as usual please!"
