Her anorexia is something that I've never been able to understand, but I've never had to deal with mental problems. She died at 33.

Mama Cass Elliot was also 33 when she choked
on a ham sandwich.

Since I don't know how to immbed

Was she close to you, Rockchuck?

Opposite end of the spectrum -
Mama Cass Elliot was also 33 when she choked
on a ham sandwich.

She had perfect pitch which is very rare. Her death was a loss to us and the beautiful music she sang.

Karen Carpenter had the most beautiful voice. I think she is tops in my book.

I've heard that while she had the voice, Richard was the musician and did the writing and productions.

There's your first deliberate lie of the day.

Or do you just lie because you can't help yourself?

Ham sandwich is an urban myth and not my lie.
You continue to be dumb cop even after you
Left the job..

You stated it as fact, and not urban myth....
..

You talk like I ought to be ashamed of being in law enforcement..

Simply relaying urban myth is not stating it as 'fact'




You are an embarrassment to LE.

Sad old Rockape is still chasing his phantom
'Rob Jordan'..

A "decorated'' cop chasing people around on a forum with unsubstantiated accusations..

You know, the lumbering lard ass that says he has found Jesus, but still struggles with eating disorders and obesity ,
side-effected by his statin cholesterol drugs, and opiodes for his backpain or bum knees,
..could also be suffering from crippling gout and nursing a serious ingrown toenail he is too afraid to see a doc about,
so he perseveres with it like a real trooper but also like a cripple, tenderly hobbling into church, finding it hard to simply
sit or stand, or concentrate well on anything- be it his surroundings or church service to his God.

CF types are also partial to their hard liquor, so apart from the drowsiness , dizziness, difficulty sleeping, headches, nausea ,
tiredness, mood swings etc, caused by their meds, they may also be adversely effected from last nights drinks.

If those compounding issues are not enough, then theres the underlying emotionally inept aspect, Some cannot even keep
their cool in CF keyboard battles, getting all flustered-emotional, erratic, irrational, and losing the plot.

bUt hey don't worry....cause they will try and have you believe they will keep their head screwed-on when someone is emptying
a 12 guage in their direction...cause they have attained a Skillset from punching static cardboard badguys that have never
shot back, have been reading Ayoob for 25 yrs and watching John Boy Correia Utube tutorials on active self protection.

They like to believe that from all that (and a bit of prayer help from Jesus)... they are piping schitt hot physically and mentally prepped,
poised and ready to proficiently engage any active shooter at any moments notice /or split-second the starters gun is fired.

course if it gets too hot in the kitchen, they can take opportune cover with their sidearm behind the pews with all the innocents
still huddled in their seats that they are supposed to be protecting and re-emerge to rush forward , ..when the dust is already
beginning to settle.

That was a coverup story. She died of heart failure after a short life of gross obesity, drug use, repeated crash diets, and lack of exercise. The drugs were probably the major cause of the heart failure but the autopsy didn't find any in her system at death.

Ham sandwich is an urban myth and not my lie. You continue to have that dumb cop mind that makes your life so hard and miserable.

I should have posted a bit more earlier - I was fascinated by the quality of their recordings. Not just the excellent recording techniques, but the musicality.

At the time, I was neck deep in various kinds of musical performance, writing and listening. Classics and orchestral/choral music from four centuries; jazz of more than one type; chamber music for wind instruments, Broadway show stuff and concert band music. Pop and rock of the time were hardly on mind.

Yet, once I carefully listened to one of their early recordings I was drawn in. Their excellent arrangements (most, I think, by Richard), Karen's fabulous vocal sound, her drum playing and his keyboard work., the beautiful phrasing, the precise balancing of musical components, the taste shown in their choices. Just great all-around stuff - the output to which any serious musician should aspire in his/her genre.

I think that maybe they were recording at A&M studio at the time - and Herb Alpert had big influence there - although I know nothing of any relationship between him and them.

Music is a huge universe for me. Those two left an indelible mark.

First LP I ever bought was the 'Ticket to Ride' album. She was my dream girl. RIP Karen.

Leave it to the 'fire to have a pissin match start on a Carpenter's thread.

Awesome.

Not sure the sweetest voiced angel from Heaven could sing better than Karen Carpenter.

Leave it to the 'fire to have a pissin match start on a Carpenter's thread. Awesome.
