Simon and Garfunkel
« on: June 30, 2004, 08:14:14 PM »
Just came back from their concert in Salt Lake City.  Very fun and way awesome to get to see them live.  It was weird, though.  The average age of the audience was probably 50, but there were enough younger people there to make it a fun concert.  Especially the encores.  

My dad said their famous for how much they fight, but during the entire concert, they mentioned how they're tired of fighting and are the best of friends now.  

One funny line was when Paul Simon got up and said, "I'd like to play an oldie now . . . Oh wait.  All our songs are old."  A very fun concert, even with the older generation there.   ;D

I saw them here in Detroit with my ex-girlfriend. They were really good.

If I may ask, why were you going to a concert with your ex-girlfriend?

She was his girlfriend at the time.  Now they are broken up.  Hence, he saw it with his girlfriend, who is no longer his girlfriend, in otherwords, he saw it with his ex girlfriend...

No, she was his girlfriend at the time, so he saw it with his girlfriend. She wasn't his ex-girlfriend when he saw it. It's kinda like the colour Grue.

Grue would be "Green before 1/1/2020, and blue afterwards."

The colour Grue is defined as "Green before 1/1/2020, and blue afterwards." That means a Grue object will appear to be Green before that date, and Blue after that date. People will argue that no, the object is green, then it becoems Blue. But since the definition of Grue involves it becoming Blue, then it was in fcat Grue the whole time - you just couldn't prove it until you observed the object after the date mentioned.
