Even rock stars of that era wouldn't be drinking and flying, I would hope. Although I hope they kinda did. It's great to envision it's the same unfinished beer the whole trip.

You would hope so, but note these articles on drunk commercial pilots in the past month:

That's horrifying. I thought pre-flight drinking was still a major offence. I once met an Aeroflot pilot at a strip bar in Ulan Baatar who was drinking soda because he'd be flying two days later. If Aeroflot pilots can do it...

I have a friend who is a pilot. He is extremely careful. He won't even take an OTC cough syrup or allergy tab if he is flying the next day. Not everyone is so vigilant. Spending a lifetime in hospitals, I could tell you some stories about healthcare providers that would shake you, too.

Thanks/no thanks on those too.

KK is a better songwriter than he is a singer, no doubt. But then again, you don't have to have golden pipes to be a succesful singer. Johnny Cash had a rough style. So did Tom Petty, Joe Cocker, Bonnie Raitt, Bonnie Tyler, Rod Stewart, Joplin, and many others.

I haven't watched Bohemian Rhapsody (yet). My friend Im with most of the time was born in Thailand and is still learning most of the music I like. For the past two weeks its nothing but Queen music in the car. Shes said to me "Why didn't you tell me about Queen before"? I do know the movie is not factual.

This embarrassing hackery from PNN-beloved VDH NAILS IT!!!!

The whole premise is that the 'deep state' decided to destroy Donald Trump in 2016 or even earlier and was so committed to this that they leaked absolutely nothing about the FBI investigating until after the election had taken place.

Rosenstein's committed countless crimes including treason, LMAO. He's also STILL Deputy AG.

Enjoy that Alex Jones world you live in.

The problem with Kristofferson is he can hardly play the guitar, either.

[AlabamAlum]

Yeah, he used to make fun of his own playing.

[Dr. Strangelove]

I've been attempting to ignore the Kristofferson conversation up to this point, but has anyone mentioned his groundbreaking work in the film Convoy, directed by a coked-out-of-his-mind Sam Peckinpah? Alongside an overly tan Ali McGraw, Ernest Borgnine, and Rocky's brother-in-law?
