Talk:Brownwood, Texas

message: Today an IP added Ed Clements to the notable people, as an actor and radio personality. Another IP almost immediately reverted the addition. Usually we throw out "notable people" additions that don't have an article, but meanwhile I looked him up online and it's possible he's notable, so I added a reference and edit conflicted. Here's the line after that addition:

For some reason, Ed Clements was created as a redirect to Fred Clement. So I leave this here for consideration. Yngvadottir (talk) 17:40, 26 June 2016 (UTC)

message: ’’’Hello, anyone.  It should be apparent to those watching, I do not know much about what I’m doing, but a GLARING problem has happened, & I hope someone much more knowledgeable than I am is able to correct this. Today is Thomas McClary’s birthday. October 6, Mr. McClary is / was the lead guitarist & song-writter for the The Commodores at the time they recorded “Easy”.  MANY consider Mr. McClary’s lead guitar solo on “Easy” to be ‘’’one of the greatest solo of all time’’’.  It is cool, & I like it a whole lot, regardless Mr. McClary IS NOT listed among Eustis, Florida’s leading residents.  That’s just wrong!  It’s all in the in-disputable information resource of the universe, Wikipedia.  Check-it-out.  The Comodores, Thomas McClary & this page on Eustis Fl.

text: It amazes me how badly Dicklyon is grasping at straws to try to make his case believable.  Both the capital/lowercase versions gained a lot of usage around the mid-2000s, likely due to increased media coverage of the day by national media.  However, it is very consistently capitalized, as shown by the capital version consistently having about 80% of the hits for at least the better part of the last decade available.

message: I took out this sentence: "Shakespeare was a contemporary of Marlowe, but given that his historical play was set in the 15th century, the use of Marlowe's lyrics was anachronistic, if effective." Given that the adaptation in question features electric trains, hypodermic needles, and tanks, it seems rather odd to me to note the anachronism of a 16th-century poem.

thread_title:  Why is the poem here? 

message: "As a courtier and as a poet, Raleigh was a more realistic man and artist than Christopher Marlow; thus, the Nymph's dismissive reply to the shepherd's talk of ideal love in the country." 
Claiming subjective personal characteristics like "Raleigh was a more realistic man than Marlowe" just on the evidence of the poem is terrible scholarship (citation needed? did you know the guys??), and I think it completely mis-reads a main theme of the poem. Marlowe is being a bit satirical -- the idealized pastoral simplicity of "valleys and fields," "roses and posies" at the beginning gets undercut by the luxurious materialism of "gold," "coral," and "amber." Obviously no humble shepherd could afford these. At the time, they would have been expensive materials imported from far away, which suddenly involves the worlds of commerce and international trade. He's making a little cynical comment on the classic love poem by showing worldly materialism disrupting the pastoral "ideal." Taking the poem completely at face value is doing a disservice to Marlowe, who was nothing if not witty and deliberate. 140.180.240.234 (talk) 20:02, 3 May 2024 (UTC)

 St. Joseph's upsets Dragons in GLFC Championship 24-23
  
St. Joseph's (8-3) beat the 12th-ranked Tiffin University Dragons (10-1) with a classic fourth-quarter comeback to win the first GLFC Championship 24-23 in a thrilling football game. Tiffin, which finishes with a school record 10 victories and only one defeat, led 23-10 in the third quarter and stopped three second half Pumas drives with interceptions before the Pumas finally took the lead on a touchdown pass by Anthony Lindsey followed by the extra point with 1:20 left in the game. Tiffin followed with a late drive of their own, getting down to the Pumas 25 yard line before Deqwan Young made his second interception of the day, giving the Pumas the victory. Tiffin led 20-10 at the half, with Tom Fritsch and Dyshaun Edwards hauling in touchdown passes from Matt Root, while Troy Brookins also had a 90 yard kickoff return for another touchdown. The Pumas' Dan Paulsen, however, stole the show with 237 yards receiving on 14 receptions (both school records), with 10 of his catches leading to first downs. While Tiffin shut down the Pumas rushing game (-7 yards), St. Joseph's got the job done through the air (376 yards on 35 of 64 passing). St. Joseph's defense also stepped up, allowing only three points to Tiffin after halftime. St. Joseph's 8 victories is a new school record.
