&lt;blockquote&gt;&lt;p&gt;
Actually, my namesake is Group Captain Lionel Mandrake from Dr. Strangelove, but I don’t think anybody gets that.  I guess I should have used a capital ‘M.’  I felt it was appropriate since I have been trying to keep people from blowing up the world since 2003.  Like Mandrake, thus far, I have failed.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Also, I R a gurl.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/blockquote&gt;
&lt;p&gt;That is one of my all time favorite movies. Everything about it is brilliant, but Peter Sellers is simply on fire in that movie. Plus, Slim Pickens is awesome throughout.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/blockquote&gt;

                19              &lt;/em&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;blockquote&gt;&lt;p&gt;Hey Donita&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;I see you are from Chicago!` Dang, Rickie Lee, Spanky McFarlane. . .Warren Zevon!!!
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/blockquote&gt;
&lt;p&gt;**&lt;br /&gt;
Speaking of Warren Zevon and Prince, ever hear the “Hindu Love Gods”?  Best version of Raspberry Beret I know — even if Peter Buck and Mike Mills were sloshed when they recorded it.  Zevon had pretty well sobered out by that point (1987).&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;#comment-488231&quot;&gt;&lt;em&gt;HotFlash @&lt;br /&gt;
                57              &lt;/em&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;blockquote&gt;&lt;p&gt;Beatles, Sept 6/64, Olympia Stadium, Detroit&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/blockquote&gt;
&lt;p&gt;**&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Hotflash,&lt;br /&gt;
Were I not speechless, I might muster a feeble “I’m NOT WORTHY, I’m NOT WORTHY”&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;#comment-488336&quot;&gt;&lt;em&gt;Redshift @&lt;br /&gt;
                152              &lt;/em&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;blockquote&gt;&lt;p&gt;It wasn’t my first concert, but the first date for Ms. Redshift and me was a Who concert, Capital Center in 1979.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/blockquote&gt;
&lt;p&gt;**&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Redshift,&lt;br /&gt;
My first “Date concert” was at the Capital Centre that same year, ‘79 and it was the Doobie Brothers.  I turned 16 and had my first “driver’s-license-Date-concert” the following year at the Capital Centre as well.  I remember that concert particularly well since, among other reasons, earlier that week in Ohio the Who played to a general admission audience and several people were killed/crushed in the stampede to get seats.  I guess that would have been the tail end of the same Who tour you saw?  &lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;In any case Fleetwood Mac was sold-out general admission as well, and the Capital Centre opened its doors - opened EVERY door - earlier than announced and concert etiquette was at an all time high.  The Capital Centre announced after that show it would no longer sell general admission seats (except floor seats) for concerts.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Have a good weekend everyone.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;em&gt;slainte,&lt;/em&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
