1:09pm SeanG:

THINK LINK

1:13pm P-90:

"Fools Paradise". Your go-to source for tasty"Pipeline" rip-offs.

1:14pm Melissa Jean:

good afternoon!

1:17pm fred:

Good afternoon Rex and fellow fools

1:18pm purpleknif:

Rex is on and all's well!

1:20pm P-90:

Oh this makes me salivate for a crawfish po' boy.

1:31pm Sem Chumbo:

Hiya, Rex, and lesser fools elsewhere in Paradise.

1:34pm SeanG:

Pass the Biscuits!

1:35pm Sem Chumbo:

That's a helluva bass Mel's playing there.

1:39pm Mark Dillman:

"Whirlybirds". Now that was an awesome show. Crime fighting helicopters. I swear, they pulled generic cops and robbers and western scripts out of the file cabinet and scratched out "police car" or "horse" and scribbled in "helicopter". Good ol' Chuck & P. T. Awaiting the DVD box set.

1:42pm Sem Chumbo:

@fred: got your ears on?

1:43pm ?:

hey baby

1:44pm Ken From Hyde Park:

Does Mel Welles look a little like John Hodgman, or is it just me?

1:46pm ?:

lol this is the best there is lol

🌮

1:49pm Artie Haywire:

It's good to have a Rock and Roll gal.

1:52pm kyle a.:

Agreed, @KenFromHydePark - John Hodgman with maybe a dash of rotund, latter day Acker Bilk.

1:53pm kyle a.:

Lets learn some more about this Rex cult. My membership is nearly up in my current secret society.

2:02pm fred:

@Sem: now, yes. I had to dispatch some laundry and ironing, but that's done

2:03pm Ken From Hyde Park:

Did Dave The Spazz play Bobby Mitchell on his sax program the other day?

2:09pm coelacanth:

aloha,Rex, and wrecked.

2:11pm Sem Chumbo:

@fred:please check my personal statement.

2:12pm Reeshard:

I already belong to a BBQ secret cult, am hoping there aren't conflicts of interest with joining the Rex cult…Meanwhile, this year's big Doo-Dah Parade in Pasadena today...

2:12pm Sem Chumbo:

Hiya, coel. Good to see ya.

2:13pm Monstruo:

Me bad boy ---me steal cookie

2:17pm Monstruo:

HEY...that beat captain kangaroo !

2:23pm fred:

@Sem: Many, many thanks. Really, I'm so grateful. There are so many books out there, and as an English language reader in a French speaking country, trial and error gets real expensive. Thanks again

2:24pm coelacanth:

Heyhey Sem C!

...oh no,you can see me?

2:24pm Toddophonic:

Chris Cerf..in the immortal words of the Go Go Gophers: oogum boogum you um genius!

2:26pm Sem Chumbo:

OK, fred!

2:28pm Sem Chumbo:

Had a look at the Abbey Bookstore site, lucky you! Maybe like P-90, you can read a chapter of a great read during each visit, and save your dough for shows:-P

2:30pm Fuzzy:

"They play nothing but rotten junk on that program" --

Fred Gwynne? Elliott Gould?

2:31pm kyle a.:

Fred Gwynne!

2:31pm Sem Chumbo:

Lawrence Welk.

2:32pm Fuzzy:

@kyle: That was my first guess -- thanks!

2:35pm fred:

@Sem: This bookshop is dear to me, I only use Amazon to get the details on a book then order through it, even though it's way more expensive. Unless the owner refuses to order it, he can do that, I love it. If you saw the pics, what may not be obvious is that there is coffee and tea hidden between these piles of books. Best place in the city!

2:42pm coelacanth:

Sem i just looked at your book list. We may have very different taste in writers,or maybe i have much catching up to do. I do like Cormac McCarthy -a lot; but to the same degree disliked "the road". Most of these authors i've never heard of at all!
I'd like to read "moby dick" but i may not live long enough; especially if i must read "the old testament" first!

2:51pm fred:

@coelacanth: I had given Sem a list of authors I like and dislike, so this list was biased. Though Faulkner's presence is a hint I should give him yet another try

2:57pm coelacanth:

hi fred....so it excludes your"likes",so not to be redundant?

2:59pm coelacanth:

Thank you Rex!
