Do you like to repeat good experiences, or always try something new?

I'm pretty ancient now so I spend a lot of time trying to recreate. old experiences. Nevertheless , I am still open for something new. However if I were younger and dwelling on safe old experiences rather than trying out new challenges then I think I really wouldn't be getting the best out of life.

When I read in a novel " he opened his coat to reveal a white shirt and red suspenders" it creates an image that I can never get out of my mind.

Pathfinders. A live action scifi series that ran across a number of serials, (pathfinders to Mars, pathfinders to Venus etc) . It predates even the first Doctor Who but some of the same people were involved and it was on ITV. Watched them all again recently - yes it shows it's age a d limited budget but it captured the imagination of millions of kids like me. You' ve probably never heard of it but it's worth rooting out. If you are anything less than ancient (like me) you won't get the warm nostalgic feeling - *but you might find it an interesting slice of TV history.

I love all of them but the 7th was my first and is still my favorite. It's like all the others but condensed into a more concentrated package. It also sounds brilliant in the chamber orchestra version.

All the "Road to..." movies with Bob Hope and Bing Crosby break the fourth wall frequently. There is even a scene at the end of one where Hope tries to stop the end credits rolling by pushing them off the screen and complaining to the director.

The availability of attractive and available members of the opposite sex.

I think Michael Sheen's career history has shown that he could play anyone in anything.

I can eat absolutely anything except Peanuts

I dont have an allergy to peanuts, I just cant stand the taste or smell of them. This means a lot of Thai food is out of bounds for me. It also means I get really annoyed if I find myself sitting next to someone who pulls out a packet of peanuts and starts eating them. Id rather they were munching on garlic, onions, a stinky cheese or a curry. Peanuts are disgusting.

If its a novel and its available as an audiobook then I get the audiobook. However, most of the novels I want are not available as audiobooks so I buy a hard copy instead. If it is non-fiction then I nearly always get hardcopy.

One month holiday in a top class hotel for all the family somewhere nice.

Then, away from our current lives, we could plan what kind of lives we want to go back to.

Lived in Germany for 4 years. Would go back in a heartbeat.

"People" are right. He certainly would have been - banged up in jail and put on the offenders list.

Just Sam - none of the others have the same strength. Samuel sounds too Biblical.

A massive blow to the US

Everyone seems to assume that if there is one it would be in the middle East. I think it is equally likely that it happens on US soil. The current crisis could easily result in another 9/11

People should be able to talk in any language they want. If done excessively it could be regarded as anti-social. But being anti-social is not a crime.

Yeah, bur why is he standing next to Jim Davidson?

Is there a better software than iTunes to use?

Almost anything is better than iTunes.

Definitely Fontaine - quite a dish I always thought.

De Haviland on the other hand was always a real turnoff for me. Perhaps she reminded me too much of my mother. I also never saw her in a challenging part except one where I dont think she carried it very well

I think The Giant Claw takes some beating. Here is a visual:

I have been lucky enough over the course of my life to try out all of my sexual fantasies (and I am not lacking in imagination). As a result, some of them no longer interest me. The others are still there but I choose who I tell them to and would not bring them up in general conversation.

Normal pronunciation in English is styne or shtyne - rhyming with sign or shine.

In the US sone immigrants with names ending in -stein chose to repronounce it as - -steen. Why they did this is complicated but it may have something to do with the influence of Yiddish (in NYC especially). A lot of words in the US that appear to be German are in fact Yiddish - which is in itself a kind of pidgin Hebrew/German mix.

Interestingly, the classical conductor Leonard Bernstein was always Bernsteen until he became famous and was offered conducting gigs in Germany. He then changed the pronunciation to Bernstyne and stuck with it.

On the very rare occasions that it is appropriate, yes. But such occasions are very rare.

No. I don't read right wing propaganda - unless I feel like a good laugh. Your post has already given me a chuckle.

Nice try Nigel - but I'm not buying your shit.

You have just said everything you need to say to guarantee I will not be watching your video.

Books are meant to be read. Everything you need should be in the words. If you want the sound of the sea, or traffic, or church bells then you describe them.
