When you got up this morning, you thought, “Gosh, I’d sure love to hear a song by the Monkees.”
What? You didn’t?
Oh well.
This was from the TV show. The recording of the song that was released on the Headquarters album is actually a much better performance.
Now, it’s your turn. What do you want to talk about? Got something you’d like to share? It’s Thursday Night Open Thread and your turn to shine.
Who wants to start?
I say this with a great amount of sadness but, in order to have an open thead, you kind of have to have people stopping by. Recently, IMAO has become a “stop by every week or so just I can 1-star everything Frank writes”. This site is a sad shadow of what it used to be.
Just about the only thing sadder is “Joel’s Gulch” which is mostly the day to day jounal of a desert hermit pretending to live off-grid while he shamelessly depends on handouts from everybody across the country to get by.
I am deeply offended by your comment.
IMAO is way sadder than Joel’s Gulch
You’re here. We do it for you.
. . . wrote the person who stopped by.
Jimmy would add, “in order to 1-star everything Frank writes every week or so, he’d have to write more.”
Eaglewingz does stop by every med or so, but gets ignored.
Anyway, Fusion GPS got paid to create fake claims against Trump, and now (we discover) against Project Veritas, so – – – they’re taking a cue from Mueller and going against little ol’ fish IMAO? Grants, or opportunities, must be evaporating!
Yeah! And youse libertarians truly are the scum of the earth.
Carpenter Bacon to Les!
The Monkeys…almost as bad as Herman’s Hermits, but I digress. How about some instant karma that I found over at the Peoples Cube…

It’s spelled Monkees. Philistine.
Speaking of “Shameless Depends”, I’ve been watching Thug Notes and stumbled across one for Brahm Stoker’s Dracula. I wanted to show it to my two kids in marching band who’s theme this year is Dracula.
You should really come to tomorrow night’s football game to see the band at halftime, it’s a really good show. Anyway, although I’m sure my kids have seen and heard worse, it still wasn’t appropriate for a dad to show his kids. Even though all the bad words are bleeped.

I read the book “Dracula”. I found it to be anti-climatic.
The Monkees are fine, but I do find the moral relativity in “Shades of Gray” morally offensive.
I don’t care what anyone says, I enjoy hanging out here… bacon for me! (Cool that you can bacon your own comments)
I always thought the song was about the struggles with adulthood. Used to be someone (parents) telling us what’s what. We rebelled, and now have to deal with those hard decisions.
Just my take.
