I decided to answer with a posted question of my own.  :)  My reply to your answer below explains it all.https://answermug.com/forums/topic/120067/could-michael-stipe-have-portrayed-pennywise-the-clown-from-s

This time I came across my own question.No surprise - - I again forgot to acknowledge your answer.You're right - - Stipe would not be a good candidate for that role.

Not that I'm not a huge Stipe R.E.M. fan but Pennywise is simply not for him.Funny to me --  my question here from four-and-a-half years ago can be an answer to your question you posted yesterday about double takes. Ha.Maybe I will answer your question.

Okay, you're right. Nothing's going to happen to me.

I've always enjoyed perusing all the categories on the site.To me, many questions are timeless.  :)

Hopper is, hands down, my favorite artist. Here are some paintings that, to me, 'resemble' your photo.  :)

A quote from Archie Bunker - - "Like the Good Book says, 'Patience is a virgin.' "

I find the second photo artfully beautiful in a wonderfully Edward Hopper way.

I liked your song by the first ten seconds  :)Had never heard it before. Thanks.

Over two years later and I only now saw your reply to me, woops.But we both know we're together on this one!  :)

If scaling is like 'scraping' with a fine-pointed 'pricker' to take off 'whatever' off every surface of every tooth --  it'd be that.  :)The random possibility of a sudden, nervy pain at any time can be a bit uneasy for me.

And I realize I don't know anything for a fact about his thoughts.)  

I came across your question almost two years later and I smiled and laughed again.So very fun!:)

In addition to my answer, I am always grateful to those who serve/d militarily. Thank you.

Yes.My parents and family were very loving, and accepting, of me -- I had always been the son/sibling they loved. And that never changed after I figured 'me' out.

And that never changed after I figured 'me' out. I'm blessed.EDITL Edited to add - - as I grew up, I always knew my attraction was to guys, I just never knew there was really a word for it. No 'decision' was ever involved. That's what I meant by figuring it out by my teens.  

Bear with me :)I've said it before on site, and not to boast, but now, as very much an adult, I admit that I am proud that as a six-years-old/seven-years--old young boy, I correctly grasped the true meaning of Bobbie Gentry's song "Ode to Billie Joe."

In recent years, I had read that Gentry said that large amounts of people over decades have believed there is/are hidden meaning/s (of widely ranging kinds) to the song.But young little WelbyQuentin had it correct at six.And WelbyQuentin still loves the song and would, if forced to choose, choose this song as "The Best Song I've Yet to Hear" - - poetically, lyrically, musically - - perfect.  less

And Gordon Lightfoot is flawless to me.

I would not stare at her.I was just noticing her beauty and beautiful smile in the photo.

Not so good on his part. The article I read seemed to maybe suggest  and he and Gwen still sort of are cordial with each other. Maybe.I just really liked the music the two of them made together in No Doubt and Rossdale's solo stuff.Gwen And Blake do seem happy together. That's cool.  less

Your question, and everyone's input - - all very enlightening. Thanks.I'll give myself time to think about it all. Hadn't thought of it all in detail.
 

Yes, I agree with you about name calling. And, yet, President Trump publicly name-calls seemingly every day. I have a problem with a President choosing such childish behavior.EDIT: I left out the word "you," ha. Woops. :)

You're welcome.  :)

:)  Ha!There is simply no denying her beauty, regardless if that's where it all stops for me: Just noticing. Ha.:)

Thanks, Randy D!:)

Read books.

I don't know if they are or aren't. I just like the leaves. (When they bloom they're like coral bells)

Beautiful.

Two years after my answer to question:Rest in Peace, Jill Sobule.Thank you for your music. 

Several including:One of the World Trade Center buildingsEmpire State building  (can't remember if that were the very top)

Alfred Hitchcock's black and white "Psycho" . . . hmmm . . .  ;)

"The Real World"   A so-called 'reality' show. To the best of my knowledge, in the real world, a camera does not record my every move non-stop.

He's amazing in his talent to me.

Very cool.  :)

Yes.

Ha!

I can't remember either. :)I enjoy that show. I watched it a lot as a child.
