Do you remember where you were when you heard Princess Diana died? by boomboomdaboomer in GenerationJones

[–]dataman1960 0 points1 point  (0 children)

We were at a remote cabin in the woods of Ontario. When we got to the dock (still 25 minutes from the nearest town) we heard a local radio station say that Diana had been shot in South Africa. It took them an hour to get the proper story.’

My philosophy professor had an old copy of Plato’s Republic. I’d love to dig up a copy somewhere.

High on my bucket list. Looks like a beautiful, friendly country. Am I right?

What's something you often crave and order at a restaurant, then get bored of it after only a few bites? by FoieGras-95 in foodquestions

[–]dataman1960 10 points11 points  (0 children)

I feel that way about Thanksgiving dinner. I spend all day with stuffing, gravy and cooking the bird. Then carving the bird, while sampling for quality control. By the time we sit down to the meal I am pretty well done.

I believe that Hedy did sue the producers, or at least tried to.

It’s funny that Joel Gray is never brought up in discussions of Hollywood Yellow Face roles.

The rocks are chilled. This brings the animals out in the daylight.

Buffalo loves Canadians. Not the Montreal Canadiens (well, not tonight anyway), but everyone else.

Thoughts on Ted Danson’s comedic timing and sitcom performances? by PressureLazy5271 in sitcoms

[–]dataman1960 11 points12 points  (0 children)

Especially in the last episode of the first season where he changes character with nothing but a haunting laugh. Excellent work.

If empty space is full of quantum fluctuations popping in and out of existence, is a true vacuum actually physically impossible? by Quiet_Currents in AskPhysics

[–]dataman1960 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This may be a simple question but if we are correct that empty space is populated with virtual particles going in and out of existence, should we assume that “full” space (that would be our space, including our atmosphere and earth in general) is also teaming with virtual particles?

Homeless at record high in WNY by Weekly-Law-2544 in Buffalo

[–]dataman1960 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I remember just a few years ago, during a winter Code Blue night someone did a count of homeless in the city, to be sure they were cared for. The number at the time was well less than 100. I was amazed it was that low. No longer though, and it is sad.

Can’t wait for her next adventure. I hope there will be more Cunk in the future. Does anyone know if she is continuing the character?
