A line from the movie "Iron Sky" was ..."Black to the Moon"....a bit of a tenuous connection...but I'm going with it.

@tmccarthy....Lovin' the Space/Moon music and photos. Wow 50 years ago....a damn shame it all ended.

I'm sorry Jim, but if I hear that song (Petula Clark — Downtown) one more time I am going to throw up along with this one ...

Just something about too many times on my radio

re tmccarthy, headset, loud, if you have a Realtek sound chip install the audio manager (all free), go to loudspeaker/soundeffect, set equalizer to "stark". You won't believe the difference.
If you have a Turtle beach sound card, there are even better settings.. ymmv.

Mission to the Moon, "GO", by Public Service Broadcasting (yes we had it before, starts at 60 sec into video):

Tony Madigan was a real gent.

...and Madigan probably never had to face the indignities Ali faced; upon returning from the Olympics, Ali, fresh from bringing home Olympic Gold for the US, tried to buy lunch at a diner in the South and was booted out because the diner was for "Whites Only"; seems like even bringing home glory to the country of one's birth can not overcome the idiocy of blind bigotry; no one knows the names of those bigot bastards, but the whole world knows the name Ali...





When Ali passed away the forums had a thread where I posted my experiences seeing Ali and his acts of kindness and humanity, firsthand; in the time after, when I have browsed through YT, in the comments sections of many of the Ali related videos I have read others who have recounted countless personal observations of The Champ's reaching out and helping people, one on one, away from the spotlight and the cameras, and it is pleasing to know what I observed were not just one-offs or rare occurrences, but, rather, just a glimpse of the real heart of the man...

Thanks, but I'll pass.

We're talking about a guy who took a dump in his pants to avoid the Draft, treated the rest of the band like a complete Dick, and leased a 13 year old girl to be his "pillow inspector". And, I'm being nice about it.

Sometimes your resume carries a lot more weight than you intended.

I didn't know that

Discerning is learning judging is trudging
