Chef Ken,
if you are familiar with "A Clockwork Orange", you recall part of Alex' rehabilitaion was to watch videos of the "ultra-violence" with his eyes propped open; it didn't work for him either.
Dang, we're aging ourselves when we acknowledge "A Clockwork Orange" references...one of the all-time best movies ever. Does anyone remember the Electric Kool Aid Acid Trip?...and The Merry Pranksters? It's funny....now we're goin' crusisin'!
Do I remember?
I was a working musician in San Francisco during "the summer of love"; talk about dating oneself! (of course I was real young then!) I got to see all that stuff first-hand. And you're right--
now we're cruising!
I think actually it's been a long and winding road;
I'm just glad I, like Neo, took the red pill instead of the blue; the rabbit hole has looked pretty good--go ask Alice.
goin'crusin',congratulations on post #100, Experienced Cruiser!
I look forward to your next milestone (500); you are a real asset to the community. In fact I think you, Chef Ken and I should put an act together and take it to sea. And I think Dave might be glad to get rid of us for a while.
