Captain Ron

[breakjaw]

Does anyone ever feel while they are posting like Captain Ron is sorta sitting back like The Watcher and chuckling at our comings and goings and feuds and whatnot?I mean,seriously,the guy was at Woodstock.That is kinda fucking amazing...

[bmack86]

Colorado Ron's seen it all. He also seems like a kickass guy. And a (former?) hippie who would be fun to talk to.

[breakjaw]

I agree,he seems really cool.It's just incredible sometimes while we discuss Bjork or Arcade Fire or such,that he saw Hendrix at Woodstock or The Who or Bowie in '72 or whatever.

Ron may have other qualifications, but simply being at woodstock does seem like it should make anyone else less qualified to talk about music.

My dad was at woodstock and he don't know shit.

Cr**** deserves major respect. He still goes to shows and is always open to new music. I <3 cr.

if I see ron at Coachella -- and he shouldn't be that hard to spot -- I'm gonna buy him a beer and chat a bit.

[jackstraw94086]

[J~$$$]

I bet ron could fuck your dad up. cut him deep.

[luckyface]

You guys are teases. I thought this was a thread to discuss my favorite movie of all time.

[jackstraw94086]

I bet ron could fuck your dad up. cut him deep.

actually I'd lay heavy odds he couldn't but it would be great to see ron defeat those odds.

When should we set this up for?

[breakjaw]

who? my dad or ron?

both
(without being personal,as I don't know your father)
Age and wisdom suck but at least you know about stuff that young people assume you don't.

[J~$$$]

Oh its on. Ron will be there. Name it son, your daddy better be ready to dance cuz cr**** is bringing it.....your pops,.. is gonna get served.

[SojuGorae]

Beat me to it.

Anyway, I really like the critic's quote on that poster. All it says is, "FUNNY!"

Can't get anymore clear and concise than that. And Martin Short looks like one of the children.

[luckyface]

?

There she is. Now that is an Oscar-worthy flick.

Obviously, they only had MS Paint back in the days they made this poster. No Photoshop.

[J~$$$]

Hey.....can we please keep it dedicated to cr****?

my dad's a mechanic from the bronx, he's down to just age at this point even if he ever was wise.

He didn't have much taste in music either. I grabbed his old Hendrix vinyl, but he didn't have shit else.

[breakjaw]

If he had Hendrix on vinyl,he had some taste.(some dads had Mitch Miller)

[blakely]

captain ron? please enlighten a newbie..........

[jackstraw94086]

It's code for LSD.

[woogie846]

At first I thought one of the handles on the wheel was Kurt Russell's penis. That freaked me out for a minute.

[blakely]

[codytwo]

It is his penis, even if it isn't.

[jackstraw94086]

your fucking with me arent you???

no. Jack might be, but I'm not.

what is being asterisked here?

my dad had some jazz (dixieland) and folk. Not Guthrie or Seeger or Dylan folk but rather Kingston Trio folk a la A Mighty Wind. He did like Johnny Cash though. also 60s pop like the 5th Dimension and the Mamas and the Papas. then later he got into Neil Diamond and at that point I quit paying attention to what he had.

Its going to sound like I'm making this up, but I always assumed all my dad listened to was Jim Croce and CCR, which isn't bad. But then one day, he was in my brother's car with me and my brother, and we were listening to Steely Dan and singing the words in a faux-Fagen warble, and he knew all of the words to every song. Apparently Katy Lied is his favorite album, next to Chronicle.

[codytwo]

And don't you fucking dis the Kingston Trio.

[TomAz]

Dissed.
