No.
I ordered something from Amazon UK yesterday; it was dispatched 23 hours later. I'll let you know how long it takes to get here. I ordered something else yesterday - from Amazon Canada. Dispatched 25 hours later. I've always been satisfied with Amazon. Quick and reliable.
He was very fit - don't remember him ever getting injured. Seemed to play virtually every game. Reliable, but unspectacular. I seem to remember him, though, always taking the corners from the right and having great difficulty lifting the ball over the first defender - used to drive me up the wall!
No, he isn't.
Check out, for example, Bob Dylan, Neil Young, Van Morrison, Paul Simon, Joni Mitchell, Ray Davies, Leonard Cohen, Randy Newman, Richard Thompson - and then get back to me.
He was a very accomplished musician. When audio technology became available for films, he started composing synchronized soundtracks for all of his own features - beginning with City Lights in 1931. And in the late 50s he re-scored his own soundtracks for all of his early silent films.
Three questions (one of which you answer for us); seven assertions (well, one of which you seem unsure of). Lots of ambivalence. What exactly is the point?
Well, maybe some of you are familiar with Jonathan Richman's song "Pablo Picasso" - covered in the mid-70s by John Cale. A lovely little ditty that went like this:
"Well some people try to pick up girls
And get called a**holes;
This never happened to Pablo Picasso;
He could walk down your street
And girls could not resist his stare and
So Pablo Picasso was never called an a**hole."
Just change Pablo Picasso to Pablo Osvaldo. Brilliant. Of course, you'd have to be familiar with the original to get the tune. Worth checking out, eh?
So, what do you think? It has that certain je ne sais quois.
