Goodheart
(5,345 posts)It's just stale... especially "Desperado" and "Hotel California".

Coventina
(27,195 posts)I can't think of a single song of theirs that I find tolerable.
I do love onions, though!

I'm not saying Android is perfect but I prefer it. Not as pricey, does what I need.
Ron Obvious
(6,261 posts)It's not the price; it's the way Apple treat their customers as morons who can't tie their own shoes by keeping them in their walled garden. It's extraordinarily annoying to those of us who know what they're doing. It feels like talking to HAL from 2001 to me:
"I'm sorry Ron. I'm afraid I can't let you do that."
Grrrrrr.....
It's very disturbing that Android and Microsoft have started following this path also.
taxi
(1,896 posts)Everyone but me has toenails that are easy to reach
Dave in VA
(2,040 posts)go to a podiatrist! We can reach our feet, but it is WOUNDERFUL to have someone else take care of this for us. We are both diabetic and it is covered by Medicare. Check and see if you might be eligible?
taxi
(1,896 posts)I will check into it. Someone once said dropping something on your foot will make you forget the small aches and pains. Now I'm up to my neck in large rocks.
Cracklin Charlie
(12,904 posts)Its really reasonably priced, in my opinion. I think he pays $35 per appointment.
Im starting to have trouble seeing all the way to my toes, not to mention reaching them.
3catwoman3
(24,055 posts)...help, and too close for my distance correction to make a difference.
I discovered pedicures way too late in life. If I could afford one every day, I would sign up immediately.
Binkie The Clown

Marthe48

I got Best of the BeeGees, vol. 2 and had never heard most of the songs. They had a lot of hits in Europe.
lastlib
(23,311 posts)Big ones. Can't stand anything they did from "Jive Talking" on.
lastlib
(23,311 posts)NOBODY likes that screecher! He and John Madden ought to be teamed up--and shoved into the first spaceship to Venus.
Upthevibe
(8,075 posts)I agree. They had a few decent songs but when they went disco - THEY WERE HORRIBLE! But then I just detest disco - I don't even consider it music....
Goodheart
(5,345 posts)For Whom the Bell Tolls
Alone
Wedding Day
Islands in the Stream
You Win Again
Those aren't disco tunes, and they're terrific.
Also, after Jive Talking they wrote many Billboard material for other singers and groups.
Marthe48
(17,042 posts)I have 3 of their cds and listen to them every once in awhile. I like the songs from the 1960s better. I'll go along with the other items, but I actually started to like polkas a little.
Dark n Stormy Knight
(9,771 posts)In fact, most television shows. And, imo, no show with commercials is worth watching unless recorded so the ads can be blazed through.
catbyte
(34,472 posts)Match Game '77 was on that was quite fun. Betty White looked awesome, lol, but she still does.
Dark n Stormy Knight

TexasBushwhacker
(20,220 posts)when their spouses seem pretty acceptable. I mean in the English Patient, she cheats on Colin Firth with Ralph Fiennes? That's swoon worthy? I found the relationship between the nurse and the Indian bomb specialist far more interesting.
I felt the same way about Bridges of Madison County. She wants to leave her loving husband, the father of her daughter, for a photographer that's just passing through town? Oh please ....
