    OK, you don't hear about hordes of people fleeing to socialist countries they way hordes come to capitalist countries.  

    That people are able to point out by name the handful of fools that "flee" to communist/socialist countries shows how rare it is.

    Don't forget "Hanoi" Jane Fonda. Okay, she didn't go, but she DID say that if you understood communism that you'd pray to be communist. Of course that was when she was making movies. When she made her fortune selling those workout tapes, she quit complaining about capitalism.

    There used to be a TV show, called Leverage. Five people - Parker, the thief, Elliot, the guy that beat people up, Sophie, the con artist, Hardison, the skinny black guy computer wiz, and Nate, the Mastermind. Nate comes up with the plans.

     

    In one episode, what they were trying was not working so Hardison said something about, "Time to switch to plan B".

     

    And Nate tells him that they are way past plan B - they are on plan F.

     

    Hardison says, "Plan F?!? How many damn plans you got? Do you have a plan M?"

     

    Nate replied, "Yes. In plan M, Hardison dies."

     

    Three or four times during the rest of the run of the show Elliot asked if it was time to change to plan M.

    Always liked that show. They did a sequel show to it, having Sophie replace Nate as the planner, and bringing in Noah Wyle as a reformed Corporate Lawyer, and most of the time having Hardison's female cousin replace him to round out the team. Only did 2 seasons though.

    This is the copy I have seen.  Just cause it happened before photoshop doesn't mean it's not shopped

    The top pic is the original. It's an ad for Warn Auto Locking hubs from the early '70s.

    So did she get some sort of promotion? Kirk wears gold 

    Not sure. Gold is Command Color, and she WAS supposed to be about 4th in the Chain of Command. 

    I think, just because that's what they did back then, they probably just handed her a gold uniform to wear.

    Yes and no. For about ten years or so before that it was Global Warming causing them. 

    I'm pretty sure that in the 1970s it was the onset of the new Ice Age. Before THAT, nobody knows.

    Chrissy never did much for me. Then she wanted more money and they wouldn't pay her so she kind of went on strike and they fired her, and brought in her cousin Cindy.

    Cindy was much cuter, and I believe she was also funnier, but she wasn't there for long. Then they got Terry, who was a nurse.

    Either one of them was an improvement over Chrissy.

     

    The dumb girl bit never appealed to me either. I've always preferred a strong woman.

    OK, Thanks! Never watched that show.

     

    PF

    It was a fun show. The premise was a guy living with 2 girls, though he was not in a relationship with either one of them. The twist was that the old couple that owned to place wouldn't let him live with them except that they thought he was gay.

    Chrissy who? Obviously there is something I don't know!

     

    PF

    T.,V. show "Three's Company". Chrissy was one of the characters. Played by Suzanne Summers, later of "Thigh Masters" fame. Also starred John Ritter and Joyce DeWitt.

    This is just my opinion. I have no proof one way or the other.

     

    Cosby was charged with giving girls Quaaludes and then having sex with them.

     

    OH MY GOD!! HE DRUGGED THOSE POOR GIRLS TO HAVE SEX WITH THEM!!!

     

    In the late '70s / early '80s, Quaaludes were the drug of choice. Everybody wanted to score some ludes.

     

    And yes, quite probably, he gave girls Quaaludes and then went to bed with them.

     

    But how is that different from snorting a line of coke and then going to bed, or blowing a joint and then going to bed, or buying her four or five drinks at the singles bar and then taking her to bed?

     

    My personal opinion is that if he had not been rich and famous nothing would have happened. The girls, who could very well have been trying for a out of court settlement, wouldn't have complained. There wouldn't have been a big Nationwide trial with all kinds of media coverage.

     

    But, like I said - strictly my opinion.

    If he'd have just announced that he was running for Congress as a Democrat, he'd have been President by now.

    I really don't care what type or brand of vehicle anybody drives, so long as they buy it with their own money. What I cannot stand is when joe biden or any other idiotic moron tries to mandate by government fiat what I must buy. 

     

    PF

    I'm right there with you. Drive what you want, I'll drive what I want. Just leave me alone about it.

    meme tesla trip.jpg

    I just watched a video on Youtube from a guy who took an EV double decker bus on a cross country tour. He had factory people from the bus manufacturer and other industry types both with him and in constant contact for support. 

    It took him about 3 times as long to make the trip, cost MORE than if the bus was diesel powered, and no end of headaches trying to charge the thing to do it. 

    EVs might work for some people, (yes, I'm talking to YOU Subdeacon Joe :rolleyes:), but I can't see owning one.
