    Dali 40s Tie...."Sonic Web"....How To Research?

    ...as for having his hands in so many projects... I recently found at the Goodwill a Jackie Gleason orchestra LP 'Lonesome Echo' with the cover designed by Dali. I think it was made in 1955. What a collaboration...Gleason and Dali. On the back is a photo of the pair shaking hands.

    thinking of a person who never saw you...

    In the film Citizen Kane the retired Mr. Bernstein told a reporter: 'A fellow will remember a lot of things you wouldn't think he'd remember. You take me. One day, back in 1896, I was crossing over to Jersey on the ferry, and as we pulled out, there was another ferry pulling in, and on it there...

    I don't think the ties were based on any of his paintings.

    Dali 40s Tie...."Sonic Web"....How To Research?

    One thing I can tell you is that 1940s Dali ties are highly sought after. Dali was quite the salesman and promoter (as well as the world's best surrealist artist). He wanted his name everywhere and make lots of money at the same time. Sorry I don't have much detailed info on this tie only that...

    What Is The Strangest Thing You've Ever Seen?

    Yeah...a praying mantis. I was trying to take a photo of one when he took off and landed in a garden spider's web (my fault). That spider sure pounced on it at lightning speed. Pretty gross, isn't it? [/IMG]

    The Regular Customer, The Usual Order

    This past Friday a first happened to me. I meet a regular group of people for happy hour down at a local Spanish restaurant/bar. I always have a nut brown ale. When the bartender came up I told her I'll have a....she finished my sentence with 'a nut brown.' That was kind of cool.

    That middle one is pretty interesting. I see oil derreks at the top leading down to a refinery then storage tanks and finally to a gas station. It tells a story.

    "300" - Merged Thread

    I like films based on real events (poorly made or not) that generate my interest enough to do more research on that event. I guess 300 was one of those films. I'm trying to think of any Bogart films that did that to me....nope.

    "300" - Merged Thread

    I was enjoying the history lesson. It helped me understand the film a little better. It's made me want to go see it again.

    What city? Last week it was around 70, but today there's about six inches of snow on the ground...and it's still falling.
