  1. Did you het an answer...........? Here's my $.02 worth. If its on the shelf, it goes bang, buy it when you can.
  2. His stand-up on the Scots inventing golf is the best. The videos of him interacting with Koko the gorilla are very touching. And when they told her Robin had died she was visibly upset.
  3. So a brief trip turns into 9 months. How much food and water is stored on the Space Station? And inquiring minds want to know. How much waste can be stored and what do they do with it? Dump it in space?
  4. Yes. State income tax, highest gas tax, highest property tax, highest sales tax and so on.
  5. Wilder/Hackman.....I hadn't finished my coffee yet.
  6. I read that when he cast Gene Wilder as the blind hermit he was concerned Wilder had never done anything comedic. But the scenes with him and the monster are some of the best. When the monster runs out and Wilder says, 'stop I was going to make us Cappuccinos'. That was ad libbed. Brooks kept it as it was funny and it closed the hermits complete lack of knowing who he was hosting. Blazing Saddles, Young Frankenstein, the Producers, and High anxiety. All worth repeated viewing.
  7. A nice in your face Boeing!
  8. Where ever the President is staying the they pay for rooms for the secret service, support staff etc.
  9. Once again proving that if the Fed's stay out of the way things get done.
  10. Locally here in Reno. The Truckee river starts at Lake Tahoe. Heads "east" and its up discharging in Lake Pyramid. VBut the lake level never rises? Where's the water go. Underground aquifer?
  11. The movie Flags of our Fathers does a pretty good job telling the insanity of the battle. And then what happened after it.
  12. I thought this was going to be about the Oldsmobile 88.
  13. secretaries are = administrative assistants or administrative managers for top secretaries.Do not use the "S" word on them.
  14. The wise guy answer I like, 'none, I had some but lost them in a boating accident'!
  15. You can sneak them in if you distract them with fruit and firewood. They'll go nuts for that stuff.
  16. A friend once told me how he'd react to the confirmation the west coast was going to be hit with a nuclear device. He said he'd go in the garage, get a can of spray paint, paint an X on his chest and lay down in his driveway. I, we, can't do anything about this so why bother getting all rilled up?
  17. I flew for work for 30+ years. Mostly Southwest. But when the Santa Ana winds hit So. Calif. landing in Ontario was always fun. Up and down and rocking the wings. sticking the one side landing gear then flipping the plane straight. Good times.
  18. As a weekend classic car mechanic I am now reluctant to tell someone I am working on my Tranny!
  19. It's TV, so there's that.
  20. I sum up super speedways like this. Watch the start and the first 15 laps. Turn the sound off. Do something else. Come back at 25 laps to finish when the race actual happens. The race isn't won by the best driver, fastest car, or best team. Its won by getting through the big one. As Byron did. And as usual they need an extended race to finish because the cautions ran them past 200 laps.
  21. I won't watch anything that has some sort of ball and pro's. NASCAR and NHRA. While they're pro drivers they put their lives in the line whenever they stomp on the go pedal.
  22. Christmas of 63. My brother gave me a 22 Remington single shot bolt action. I still have it. I taught each of my 3 daughters to shoot with it.
  23. He's given $$$$$$$$millions over the years to children's hospitals. He's cut his salary so they could hire the other actors they wanted, He's given $$$$$$$$ to support staff on movies.
  24. Maybe the wrong place but, all you Schofield guys; I want to sell my Uberti 7" Schoefields in 44-40. They have had the internals re-worked to allow your finger to touch the trigger without locking up. Any ideas on an asking price for these? Thanks Ike
  25. Ya'll's mindset is pouring a cup of coffee. 90% of the people in line aren't getting a cup of coffee. Thats called an Americano. So, espresso, lattte. Mocachino, added flavors, double shots, teas. etc. Also the big thing is convenience. Who here has a real latte or espresso machine at home? Regular coffee made on an espresso machine is far better than "brewed" coffee that sits in a pot. Its fresh and lava hot. Their brewed coffees have multiple flavors you can ask for. So you don't have 4 bags of beans sitting at home going stale. Its not abut being part of the in crowd. Its getting coffee and food you can't get at home without a lot of hassle and expense. Me, chai tea latte with a shot of espresso!
