    Terms Which Have Disappeared

    Much like Gilligan's Island, where the island was obviously in an alternate dimension. Where the Howell's and ginger had three years of clothes and the rest of the crew only had what was on their backs. Or, the professor could make a radio out of coconut's, but could not fix the boat, after all...

    Terms Which Have Disappeared

    Like being employed by a "think tank!"

    So trivial, yet it really ticks you off.

    Well, it is Tar Jay after all! ;)

    Or as they said here in the states, "life begins at 50!" I am sure Steve McQueen would not agree!

    Terms Which Have Disappeared

    There is a lot of arguments to where Hooterville was? The opening scenes were filmed north of Los Angeles, back when there was still farms there. Of course, the Cannonball is actually Sierra #5 which is in California. As for the accents, they are all over the place! Arnolds is the only one I can...

    What was the last TV show you watched?

    This Old House Hour. I did get some ideas for lighting my deck someday!

    Your Most Disturbing Realizations

    Tennant was only alive for a couple of years before I watched my first and only Dr. Who back in the 70s. Ironically, he is the one, I actually watched on Disney a while back, I thought he was good, but I am not a DWAS!

    So trivial, yet it really ticks you off.

    It's not ethical for me, it's the fact that at Target, there are no crowds inside and plenty of parking outside!:D

    DEATHS ; Notable Passings; The Thread to Pay Last Respects

    I just did a check, and there are only two people still alive that were born in the year 1900. Hard to believe!

    Disco: The last dying gasp of the Golden Era?

    We sure shared Rock & Roll in the late 50s on.

    DEATHS ; Notable Passings; The Thread to Pay Last Respects

    Technically you are right, but go back in time and tell that to the billions of people who celebrated the beginning of the 21st century during the infamous Y2K.:D

    What was the last TV show you watched?

    NAZI Mega Weapons: Blitzkrieg. You can see why Hitler lost the war, he could only think in terms of short wars. France may have been his big down fall, he lost more tanks and airplanes then they could afford. When they attacked Russia, they had to make up the numbers with captured...

    DEATHS ; Notable Passings; The Thread to Pay Last Respects

    Susannah Mushatt Jones passed away at the age of 116. She was the oldest person alive. On a funny note, her favorite food was bacon, which she snacked on all through the day, so go out and buy a pound today! This leaves Emma Morano from Italy, as the only known person that is still living who...

    Spitfire and the speed of sound

    I see the Spitfire and the Bf109 as one in the same, great airplanes when they came out in the 30s, defensive aircraft, but, of less use by the end of the war. The Germans waited for the Spitfires escorting bombers to turn back for lack of fuel, then had their field day! There is a reason that...

    Show us your Militaria

    Love the old Ballantine books! I still have the few I bought back then. Hard to believe the reason I did not buy more was, I did not have a spare $1.00!

    Friday the 13th

    Friday the 13th has always been my good luck day, and the ace of spades my good luck card! I can only remember one bad thing ever happening on Friday the 13th, my water heater went out on that day. Not all that bad, I finished my shower before the water got cold, the guys had my new water heater...

    What's for Dinner?

    A friend of mine pointed out that I owed him a steak! So off to a very expensive restaurant. I had a New York Strip, no need for teeth, it melted in the mouth. When it was time to pay, my friend was a good sport and said, "you did only say you were buying me a steak," so he paid for the rest.
