The problem would be that I don't think enough people would want to shoot like that being most people are concerned with speed.
You’d be right on the first part of your statement, and you’d be wrong on the second part.

Unless your demise is imminent, I’d worry about this later when it becomes a problem. Enjoy your time with him now. A solution may present itself when you least expect it. Besides, you might live longer than you think. 😊

I was in 5th grade, but home sick that day. It was on every TV channel with few commercials. Hard to believe 62 years have gone by.

Both my boys are productive members of society and have never needed a dime from me or the government after leaving home. They have great high-tech jobs that I don’t fully understand. Both are happily married to awesome women and I’m blessed with two wonderful grandchildren.
It’s fun notice from time to time that some of their old man has rubbed off on them. My oldest doesn’t have the facial features of my dad, but he’s built like him and moves the same way. Funny how DNA works.
I am extremely proud of them. 😊

Not trying to grab Penny Loafers....But how many learned to count money back, the old fashion way?? Or when you bought a candy bar and the cost was two bits...Back when my daughter's swim club hosted a swim meet...I worked the snack bar...A younger girl swimmer came to buy something and I told the cost was 2 bits...She looked at me and I could see she had no idea what I said....Then told her 25 cents....Without the electronics I think out kids would be lost...Maybe lost in a walk in closet...

Two bits is an anachronism. I wouldn’t expect anyone under the age of 60 to know what that means.

Not only count the money back .
But put all the heads on the money the same direction and from largest bill to the smallest bill .
And if they dont .
I stand there and do it myself before I will step away .

I like it for the pretty pictures.
I missed your rant. Could you Message it to me, please? I like rants.
I deleted it 10 minutes after I wrote it. Not worth reconstructing.

EDIT: I wrote a grumpy rant about YouTube and its copy and paste documentaries, then thought better of it. Please accept my apologies.

Just PBS terminates my interest.
I used to like the content, but those days are getting further and further away.

I remember when that aired. When was that, 1978?
As God is my witness, that still makes me laugh out loud every time I see it.😊

Kewl!! Too spendy for me, but it’s less than I would have expected. Revology Mustangs are $350k and up and I’d much rather have one of these for an expensive toy.

Take for instance Lucille Ball's famous bit at the candy factory. It's normally used as an example of hilarious. I think that the whole premise is stupid.
Flame Suit on.

If Depp is starring in it it's sure to be a stinker.
And let's not forget "Lethal Weapon".
If “Lethal Weapon” qualifies as a Christmas movie, so does “LA Confidential”. (An excellent film, BTW). 😊
I like Johnny Depp as an actor. He was excellent as John Dillinger in “Public Enemies”.

Christmas Carol 1951 Alister Sim version.
Excellent choice. My wife can’t stand it though, and she only tolerates George C Scott, but at least she’ll watch it with me. 🙁

Even though the stories have happy endings, I’ve never been fond of movies & shows where deceit between characters is a central element. “White Christmas” and “Christmas in Connecticut” are two such movies I won’t watch again.
On the other hand, my Christmas favorites are, in no particular order:
* Miracle on 34th Street (Maureen O’Hara)
* A Christmas Carol (G. C. Scott)
* Nat’l Lampoon Christmas Vacation
* Home Alone (the first one, not the sequels)
* The Santa Clause (the first one, not the sequels)
* A Christmas Story (the first one, not the sequel)
I know I’m supposed to like “It’s a Wonderful Life”, but so much of the movie is a downer I have a hard time sitting through to the end. (And I’ve even known Karolyn Grimes (Zu Zu) personally.)
Other favorites are a variety of MGM and Warner Bros. cartoons from the 40’s & early 50’s.

Did he get residuals? He was a big enough star by then to have commanded that.

Nah. None of The Above. Any of you guys checked out the current Boxes of Girl Scout Cookies?? Not to mention the "size" of the Girl Scout Cookies?? Today, while it may well be a good cause, Girl Scout Cookies have become a rip off. I buy 'em anyway. Even though the Girl Scouts don't actually sell 'em anymore. The "Moms" set up big tables at the Super Markets. Sometimes a Girl Scout or two will even hang out. Bah Humbug.
There may be big tables run by moms, but the biggest sales channel now is a link sent out to friends and families to buy online. All the little urchins have to do now is have mommy or daddy deliver the boxes at the office like Amazon. You even have the option to have them delivered to your door without any effort from the ahem, “scout”.

Every Fractured Fairy Tales, Peabody, and the Aesops (?) Fables ended in an incredible pun. 😁

I loved that series when it was on in the early-mid 60’s, though I wasn’t old enough to get all the jokes. Fractured Fairy Tales and Edward Everett Horton’s narration are iconic, as is the little fairy getting smashed in the book.
I have the entire series on DVD and it’s more hilarious now that I understand the subtleties and brilliant writing.
