Hey everyone, this is Zack, Scott's son, writing you all under my father's account. My dad passed away suddenly Friday afternoon. Believe it was heart related. I know he was an active member here, so I wanted to let you know. My apologies if this is in the wrong section, but I know he had some...
I may spring for this as I love their music and watched their show faithfully back in the day. :)

Last night while watching a couple of music video countdowns with my girls, I heard that there may be a collaborative effort between Ella Marija Lani Yelich-O'Connor (Lorde) and Taylor Swift. As I really like both artists and (especially) their song-writing abilities, I am so intrigued by this...
It's really amazing to me to think it was almost fifty years ago. I saw the first Ed Sullivan broadcast (I was six). Little did I know at the time what an impact this group would have on my life.

It looks like two are dead and twenty-three are injured at this point. I've run this race five times, and used to love having my mom and sister waiting for me at the finish line. It's a beautiful course, and a great tradition...

I've been working my way through the forty or so episodes I own of this series on VHS. Has anyone heard anything about the possibility of it being released in its entirety on DVD? It's such a wonderful western.
I was curious if anyone on the HTF Board engages in frequent water (i.e, no solid food at all) fasts. Some of you who know me relatively well know that I am a long-distance runner. I fast frequently, for physical and spiritual reasons. Fasting also helps me to run more efficiently and trains...
I wasn't sure where to post this. My apology if it should have been placed elsewhere.
