It's hard to believe he'd be 65 now. I just can't wrap my brain around that.

I grew up listening to Queen. It was tradition that we would BLAST it while cleaning house. I mean BLAST IT! And then I would dance around the living room in some old white sheer nightgown robe thing with balloon sleeves (my Mom's old lingere or something guess - ha ha. It was like a fairy princess dress.)

I remember the house vibrating with We Will Rock You.

I LOVE the google doodle. That might be their best one yet.

This is awesome... (And for some reason I had a flash of Kevy Baby doing the same thing.

)

Now I have a mental image of Kevy in a pink sweater and leather skirt. Thanks a lot!

I haven't listed to Fat Bottom Girls in years. I need to put that on a new CD for the car.

Not to be a pill, but the Google banners that are simply links to films (Chaplin was the other one) are, imo, lazy.

I think the most elaborate and successful one to date was the Jules Verne, which was an interactive version of the banner. But a link to a film? So what? No creativity in that, though the films themselves may be cute. (And, as I see it, it just so happens that the Chaplin film was a thousand times better than the Mercury film.)

You're entitled to your "as you see it," but the Chaplin film didn't make me cry.

innerSpaceman · 09-14-2011, 09:54 AM

But did that have anything to do with you being alive during Freddy Mercury's career and not yet alive during Chaplin's?

Regardless. The Google banner could link to a print of Star Wars, and I would still yawn. Ooooh, it's a link. WOW Google, Amazing!!!

September 24, 2011 - Today's interactive for the birthday of Jim Henson is one of the banners I'ma talkin' 'bout ... and applaud.

There's no sound, right? I was a bit disappointed at that but it's nice anyway.
