It's not a waste of time for me, I like it. Sometimes it veers off in an interesting way, as conversations do. You can always come back to the original thought/topic.



Nah i've had enough. In particular with a certain perfectionist prick.

Who is that?

No comment.

Why don't you start downloading the Bob Dylan radio theme specials as mp3 files i been posting (before they get removed).
You'll find they're good and Bob's choice are diverse.

Your choice.

I've had the Bob Dylan theme time radio shows since 2008/9 when they were aired. I've listened to every season consisting of over 100 episodes. It was a great show, highly enjoyable, very interesting and highly recommended. Here' an example: Theme Time Radio Hour 3 - 09 Famous People.

The idea of this thread is to display a 'Quote of the Day'.

If one of them sparks off a discussion, that's great !

Not 'Off Topic' at all !

Look............................... no train in sight !

Colin it's fixable - move the posts, from the point of your quoting my Ed Asner post/quote over to the 'Talk about anything you like' thread. Then delete this one and all the posts that gone off topic. It's certainly not a good look over here.
