  1. That was one of the best performances I have ever seen/heard anywhere of any song and it was on TV. I wish I could have seen that live. I watch it on youtube all the time. It's amazing!!! I would love to know if it is available somewhere on CD or vinyl (pipe dream). I think I have that whole program on the uverse dvr, from Palladia (now MTVlive). It should be available, but I have not found it online. The song, at least, is on Amazon https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00B59OY48/175-9704382-5008339?ie=UTF8&*Version*=1&*entries*=0
  2. [EDIT--the more I think about this, the "solution" below doesn't make sense if the receiver displays "DD", unless DD can be 2-channel digital. My Pioneer receiver has all kinds of modes it displays, some being its version of sonic holography. I do remember solving that exact problem, though. Will have to explore receiver setup tomorrow. But it still might be worth a look at the Dish box setup.] A lot of times TV dialog is mainly in the center channel. Commercials are often stereo. I have had that same problem, where it wants to only output to the mains. Seems like it happened when we switched from Charter to Uverse, had to set the Uverse box. Options: Audio/Language: Digital: Surround (i.e. not Stereo). But I don't recall the receiver saying it was in surround mode. Had a similar problem when we bought a Visio TV (old Sony CRT finally shot craps). As shipped from the factory there was no sound at all, was ready to take it back until I started messing w/ settings. Had to set the TV up to think it had a sound bar, although it only had internal speakers.
  3. Welcome, lady! Perhaps you can help some of us to be gentlemen.
  4. This is going to take a while to get through. I'm very interested in why Johnny can't read. From my experience with both public and private education (as a consumer, funder, and volunteer), public school performance standards are set far too low, and apt students are encouraged to be mediocre. Based on the first chapter of this work, I fear that some worthwhile ideas may be drowned in a rant. I don't understand the apparently out-of-hand rejection of scientific principles, nor the idea that teacher measurement and accountability are not valuable. Perhaps my misconceptions will become evident as the argument unfolds.
  5. Hey, that first Head East album went gold. I thought it was more widely known--definitely a local favorite, first big concert I attended. Rod got it; he's up.
  6. Whining? You think that's whining? Next song, clue 1 would have been "oh say can". Or perhaps "True North strong". Go for it.
  7. Oh, come on, save my life--I'm going down for the last time! 3. "break any glass"
  8. present tense! 2 "even a chance"
  9. ok, much easier one (I hope!) 1 "save my life"
  10. 1 "with the queen" 2 "I'm under par" 3 "thinks I'm obscene" (lyrics changed over the years; on Chameleon it's Linda Lovelace)
  11. Bump #3 "thinks I'm obscene" If no-one else, I bet zumbini knows this.
  12. I pull out that LP periodically. Lot of good stuff, including a version of Angel of the Morning. Clue number 2: "I'm under par"
  13. All righty then. #1: "with the queen"
  14. Take a load off, Balok! The Band: The Weight "Crazy Chester followed me, and he caught me in the fog."
