I don't think you know this guy, but what a loss for the industry.
I've loved his work in the X-Files days, and now on Supernatural. I didn't even know he was sick so it was a complete shock yesterday when I found out he had passed away.
I didn't realize there was an X-Files connection.
The boys at Supernatural loved him. If you watch this video, it starts at about 5:50 minutes in, they're all gushing about him
(the rest of the video is cute too, the whole crew is so funny :lol![]()

No way no how...and I'm not even allergic.

Hey y'all! Back later to catch up, but wanted to post this while it was fresh in my mind. I got this link in my email a bit ago, and since our (American) Superbowl is right around the corner (this weekend!!), I thought I'd post some 'past highlights' from the part of it that's often more anticipated than the football itself.

Love the guy with the lint rollervlivantje:
I was busy last night.
I like this slightly better than the version I posted before.Another "headless" video.

I also recorded another song but I need to change one part in my vocals 'cause it's very weird....it seems like some consonants just "disappeared".
Probably because of the hiss filter.
So I need to re-do that but I hope to post another song in the very near future.

Love the "Headless Acoustic Series". Beautiful job with the song!

My man Gerrard!! I haven't googled lately to see how his legal troubles are progressing (dip sh*t : ) But he is still kicking the ball around nicely.
This song is not bad:
Not bad, but I think the video is more interesting than the song, if that makes any sense.
Svenn:
I know that they recorded 212 songs because a couple of years ago a Norwegian radio station played one song every day and at the same time gave the history and background for the song.
And they were going to repeat it on podcasts...but the powers that hold the Beatles purse strings would not allow it. (at least that's what I read )

Just found this link: http://magazine.jamsbio.com/2009/01/05/playing-the-beatles-backwards-the-ultimate-countdown Someone made a countdown of Beatles songs. All 185 of them.
From 185 to 1 in order of how much the person compiling the list likes them. Each song comes with its youtube vid, it's kind of awesome!
The Beatles only had 185 songs? I thought there were much more... Anyway, now I can see what songs I do not know, And if I do not know some songs, I'll defenitely WILL know 'em!
You're right, The Beatles did more than 185 songs. They recorded 212 songs (212 songs in the official Beatles catalogue) , but there are original songs only on the list. THANKS FOR THE LINK, EVIE.
And is there a website with the full Beatles catalogue? I mean, not the songs. But the titles and albums on wich they are. Because, I think I haven't got all their songs, but I want to. I've got 202 if I'm right. Only 10 more to go!
This site has all the songs with info about each one.

Art's moustache is so wrong.

I couldn't agree more...that look just didn't work for him.
The coloured shirts are also very interesting.
One of the nice things about the 60's...no matter what you wore...it was probably okay.
I've spent a bunch of time strolling down memory lane today. I was given "The Smothers Brothers Comedy Hour: Best of the third season" on dvds. Typical of the Brothers they have released the last season first. They include some of the censored stuff and it's interesting to see how tame it is by today's standards. CBS took out a whole song that Harry Belafonte sang with video of the '68 democratic convention riots running in the background. On Dec 8, 1968 the finale song was "What Would Happen If" and posed that question regarding many subjects...one of the lines was 'What would happen if there was racial equal opportunity?" and the skit had a Black president! The show was just 40 years ahead of it's time!
Jim Morrison singing "Touch Me" and "Wild Child"...dang, I'd forgotten how handsome he was
I'd forgotten how talented Tom and Dick where as folk singers...even without the funny stuff...great harmonies.

Oh my god, NOT Chad Michael Murray!
: I don't know what it is with him, but I can't stand to see him play.
i think it is because of the fact that he just cannot act
i meant to see Jensen with my re-runs.
Had to google this guy since I don't recognize the name....he may be a lousy actor...but he is in good physical shape...

I stumbled upon these vids last night! There's someone making a "documentary-style" overview of Paul Simon's music, starting from 1953 and onwards. It reminds me a lot of The Beatles' Anthology series. There are three parts up already, but I think there's more to follow. It's a very nice watch. The person also uses a LOT of interviews he or she collected on VHS over the years and I haven't seen most of them before. There's a bit of Artie in there too. And I love how Paul is driving around their old neighbourhoods, pointing out Art's house and their high school and all.
Part 2 : Part 3 : And check out this too. At the end there's a happy birthday message from Paul McCartney to Paul Simon.Part 1 :
"Happy Birthday Paul". "Thank you Paul". LMAO!

Cool links!! And so continues my love/hate relationship with the Blackhole of Time

Remember when I mentioned a very famous Belgian artist called Toots Thielemans who apparently played a version of Waters Of March that Art also recorded? I found another video today that shows he had another connection to S&G! LOVE this. He plays mouth organ, of course.
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Toots_Thielemans (you might also want to read the "influence" part of this wiki article.)
Learned something new! I'd heard my dad mention Toots Thielmans but didn't know anything about him. What really strikes me is reading John Lennon and George Shearing in the same sentence...my dad was very fond of George Shearings music and it would have raised his opinion of Mr Lennon to know he used to listen to him too.

plus Donovan, Eddie Vedder, Sheryl Crowe, Paul Horn, Moby and more.... I need to check out exactly how this will 'change the world' ....seems a little too 'touchy feely' to me, but the site says there is much scientific evidence for the benefits of TM. One thing is certain, looks like it will be a helluva concert
The most savage gales for a decade killed at least 15 people in mainland Europe yesterday. In the worst incident, four children aged between nine and 12 died when a sports centre near Barcelona collapsed as fierce winds lashed parts of northern Spain and south-west France I've been looking at photos and videos....

Maybe he needs to go without me and I need to plan another vacation to, oh, let's say, the USA or so...
There is skiing in Nevada....Sean can hit the slopes and I'll meet you in Las Vegas to see "Love"
Skiing in Nevada? As in the desert Nevada?
There's skiing?? Wow, I learn something new everyday.
Nevada covers alot of territory Nevada means ?snow-covered? in Spanish, and with more than 33 feet of snow annually at some ski resorts, it delivers. Unlike other ski destinations in the West, Nevada keeps the excitement going 24 hours a day. Though I'm not sure how close the snow is to the desert around Vegas.

I'm happy that so far he's going with more 'transparency' than the previous administration.
And he frozen the payments for extra bonusses
very good thing
Yep, he's not able to walk on water, but he can take baby steps in the right direction.
vlivantje:
You have no idea, I'm already getting scared. I asked why he doesn't want to go skiing in Sweden, he's like "the mountains aren't high enough". This comes from someone who's only been skiing indoors so far.
not a skier, but I would think there would be a huge difference in the conditions between indoor skiing (which is new to me) and outside in the real world. A skiing holiday might be nice if there was a cozy lodge, a fire in the fireplace and a hot buttered rum in my hand and I could watch the people out in the cold.
