  1. I can no longer follow what the official title of Dinosaur species are. Therefor, since you attribute your name to being a Dino, I've created a new species category called "Madonnasurus."
  2. That really looks cut and past and as a result, not in your own words and belief. Maybe it was the massive font that often occurs during cut and paste. We often like to choose other people's words to emphasize our own, yet when doing so, indicate sources as well as make sure to modify the effects of cutting and pasting. We also use "quotations" to emphasize outside resources.
  3. To play music you often sit in a chair. To play musical chairs you stand. I'm so confused.
  4. Contrary to some perceptions, there are so many other places in the world where vaccination isn't any farther ahead. In fact, for example, Germany is open to using Sputnik V if it's approved in Europe (yet to happen). They aren't farther ahead. One kind of creepy factor in this is I've seen people on social media changing their signatures to show "Received both doses of vaccine." as if it's a status symbol. https://www.thelocal.de/20210326/germany-says-ready-to-use-russias-sputnik-v-vaccine-if-approved-by-ema/
  5. Had Sputnik, became Zombie - Going to Indy Had Sputnik, became Zombie - Not going to Indy
  6. I know someone who is a nurse who told me he's not getting the vaccine. The only thing I could think of was "You are a nurse and you should know better." I didn't say anything, just that I was eager to get it.
  7. I'm reading the news every day and am becoming more immune to any concerns. I figured with all the people who have had it vs. some of the issues, I have more probability of being okay. I just want to get this over with.
  8. I'm sorry you had to experience that, but now that you are on the other side it must feel more reassuring to have had both shots. I can't wait to get mine. I just wish the second dose was sooner than the current procedure.
  9. I thought the mother was cool and quite patient. I've known a few mothers who after being scared like that would have grabbed the trombone and run it over with the minivan.
  10. Is that related to the reported mild flu-like symptoms that sometimes show up after the second dose? I know a couple of people who didn't have any symptoms after the second dose. I'm not scheduled yet for my first shot. It looks like that could happen within the next week or two, but here they are delaying the second dosage so that more people are able to get at least one shot. I will probably be given the Astrazenica vaccine.
  11. Consider yourself very fortunate to have not had to experience that platform for discussion. DCP is like My Little Pony in comparison.
  12. Jim, you got only Mac and Cheese - did it at least have hot dogs mixed in with some side ketchup?
  13. When I was growing up, first lead players were exalted - they got the finest wine, and the finest grapes and cheese when they weren't playing.
  14. They are not banned yet. You don't need to worry, you will be working hard in your participant corps in the first leaders chair extraordinaire otherwise known to band people.
  15. I usually don't read the comments as well but went back after you noted one. It explained a few things I had only assumed after watching the show. One thing noted watching this again was just how difficult that drill was and what incredible progress Phantom made from the beginning of the season through to the final performance.
  16. Looking at recaps, guard ranking and how it's presented is all over the place. Some scores out of 2 (see above), some 10, some out of 100 - and when it's supposed to be out of 100, some guards are over 100 by a lot. Sometimes the recaps could use the help of a Universal Translator... It's not easy to define how exactly the rankings contributed to the score or if they were assigned a score just to determine rank. From what I can see, guard became part of the visual average in 2000 (you see their contribution to the average broken down as separate contribution in the visual caption).
  17. I checked the recaps on Fromthepressbox.com It looks like the 2 points for guard were part of the recaps for '78 and '79.
  18. Over 10 years later and the show still makes me verklempt.... I so appreciate her reaction. Somehow she thought Phantom was in 4th that year, yet I appreciate that she saw the effort required to create that show, and sense the passion from the performers. Courtney will forever be associated with allowing us to enjoy what we love from a different perspective during the most difficult time of many of our lives. My goodness that accent is so amazing!
  19. I have always liked Betty Crocker muffin mix.
  20. The delicious Bran muffins you baked and sent to me.
