dale, You celebrate what you want, we're celebrating War on Christmas here. Irwin's got the orange color scheme so he's probably got Halloween going. To each his own.

Irwin, what did you think about “Inside Llewyn Davis?”
Avatar Swag For Life Member 3:27pm
Irwin:

@Jake: Liked it a whole lot, would see it again. Great film about a total loser. Dug the cats & John Goodman. Oscar Isaac is a terrific musical talent.
  3:29pm
JakeGould:

Yes! Exactly my thoughts. I thought the whole circular “Groundhog’s Day” plot of this is this guy’s life & it’s not changing was brilliant.

Google don't know squat about The Puppies USA, but it does know Irwin played them before (and someone made a similar ungoogleable comment!).

Irwin, more info please! Do I need to update the Trifecta list?

So Ken didn’t like it because there was nobody in the film to care about? Hmmm… So what about “Taxi Driver” or “Raging Bull” or anyone in most any Scorsese film. Whatever. I liked it.
  3:52pm
JakeGould:

Meaning, who cares about any of the characters in many films. Especially Scorsese. But the lack of a core plot could be a deterrent to most.

Google-fu?! More like Computer-fu. Kenzo can confirm I am the Inspector Clouseau of computers.

Ken, Moderate is relative -- for Joe Frank moderate is still going to be 2-3 sigmas out.

Hmm, I used Jack Kornfield in my show today (wfmu.org...), and I'm now wondering if I was long-ago introduced to him by Joe Frank. Ironic?

- I wonder if Existentialism wasn't actually influenced by Buddhism & Eastern ideas infiltrating the Modern West - altho' many would tend to posit them as opposites.

@Dale: I edited out the solo. It's not bad, just not necessary in such a great song. Love the Rachmaninoff-parody coda.
