The ^ faux German military motorcycle is actually a British Triumph disguised with olive drab and flat black paint. There’s a chase sequence in this movie in which the German stunt riders were after him and Steve was so fast that he just ran away from them. So, they put a German soldier uniform on him and he chased himself.

USC Trojan band on Tusk. The where eludes me without researching.

I was following Mac before Buckingham/Nicks joined. Have 5-6 albums before they went huge/multi-platinum. The days of Peter Green, Christine Perfect; Bare Trees and other albums. They had an evolving sound that went back to John Mayall if I recall.

It's so that on Black Friday they can "slash" the price to $2,499 and claim it's "$500 off" in all the publicity...

Last night, when conversing from one room to another with her watching the news in the kitchen and me a Champions League replay in our family room -
Me – “hey babe, Apple’s new MacBook Pro display (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=exM1uajp--A#t=36m36s) has a liquid retina says Kate”

Wife – Not my field, but I think they currently administer Ozurdex in the inferotemporal quadrant for that and don’t forget this time to take out the trashcans tonight

Me – unsure of how much of what I said, she actually heard.
