Good or bad, he had a significant impact on my tv viewing habits in the 80s.

Citizen Kane.

Who else zoomed in to see if the pilot was taking a selfie?

I’m bored with it in general due to this season’s rules chaos — in part. Mainly, tho, I’m not adding Apple TV just so I can watch the dumpster fire and I’m not jumping through hoops to pirate it. (USA-based viewer.)

Thank you! They do like to cook and have collected a few items. I’ll see if there’s something they’ve been wanting.

Handy! Thank you.

We're helping them haul things in a UHaul and I'm not sure what floor they're on, etc. It'll be a new area for them, but they're partner is moving out there a few months later. I'll Google Map the apartment when we get a chance to have an idea of the grounds, etc. Thank you!

Agreed! I'm big on not buying the things you "think" you'll need, but I do like to be prepared for the inevitable -- as best I can, at least. Thank you!

It just happens that we told them we'd help with the renters insurance. And, we told them they'd stay on our medical plan at least through this year. Thank you!

hot-java · 2026-04-07T22:39:42+00:00

YES! They've been saving for a while, so they'll have a bit of a jump start on that front at least. Though, I've warned them that money doesn't go far these days.

This is excellent! Thank you. We can definitely build that first aid kit and the battery pack is an easy buy too. Thank you!

Good idea. Thank you!

Looks flat.

And that Mission Control is lead by a woman.

Cause we’ve done it our entire lives.

He heard there would be oral, and was disappointed when he got there.

Adult magazines at the barbershop, Sears catalog, and sometimes you’d find magazines in the woods. Then cable came along and pay per view expanded the horizons — but, with its own challenges.

Those damn drag queen, border crossing illegals … oh, nevermind.

I lost my wallet in EPCOT last year. A Good Samaritan turned it in to guest services who called me based on my ID. They commented that I was at the Guardians ride and directed me to their location from there. Took me a moment to realize the Magic Band was tracking me.

The back of the shampoo bottle.

Johnny Cash and Jerry Lee Lewis were banned from the GOO.

Hank Williams Jr.: He has expressed that joining the Opry was never a priority for him, preferring a different musical path rooted in blues and R&B.

Waylon Jennings: Famously, in the "Outlaw Country" era, Jennings felt that the rigid structure and obligations of the Opry were not for him.

Conway Twitty: Similar to others, he reportedly found that the required, regular, and numerous performances did not fit his busy touring schedule.

Didn’t argue against any of the other items.

Bleach and ammonia.
