    Currently watching the Tulsa King. The first tv series Sylvester Stallone as done for television. 

    I've watched the first couple of episodes. I've always liked Sylvester Stallone, and I like gangster movies. Good to hear it's being shown in los.

    Back to the painting - Beer connoisseurs will surely have spotted the bottles with the red triangle in the (original) picture by Manet. it is of course Bass Pale Ale. The first trademark to be registered in 1876. A classic beer.

    ah! so he was looking for trannies then!

    As someone who objects to the use of 'sissies' shouldn't you not use the term 'trannies'.

    I don't think I have ever seen Teya dressed like that. Thinking a bit more, maybe not dressed at all?.

    Quinn has probably repurposed some classical painting by a famous artist, but I wouldn't know which one.

    I'd guess a 19th century French painter. I've only heard of Gaugin and Toulouse Letrec - I don't think I've spelt those right.  

    Or maybe Vincent Van Gogh, though he might be Dutch.

    Who was the artist that painted nudes that were rather plump?. Aha Rubens!. He wouldn't do Teya then

    I tracked it down, it is a painting of a bar at the Folies Bergeres by Edouard Manet in 1882. I was right about it being a 19th century French painter.

    I just watched the first episode. Looks good.

    Watched it all. It was ok, good photography, but a bit confusing. I might have to watch it all again when I have time, to understand it.

    Tonight all the planets in our solar system will be visible. Doesn't happen very often, about every 20 years. The dawning of the Age of Aquarius? Auspicious for Teya on her birthday?

    Love this type of stuff, will take a peep out later.  

    Did you get to see anything bb? The light pollution over London makes it difficult to see the fainter planets but I did see Venus, Saturn and Jupiter which was the biggest and brightest. I think Mars will be visible a bit later.

    Pics of Jupiter behind the Moon from my window.
