Today? I don't know if I'll ever see the island of Manhattan again. I kind of doubt it, besides, it's in so many movies why bother to go there? Been there, done that. And it's horrendously expensive, only the rich and a few very poor folks inhabit the place now. Shame on me, I almost forgot...

Thank you for letting us know that most USB drives are ordinary HDD's hiding in a case, booman. I hope this means that they are normal drives. I foolishly bought a USB drive years ago thinking that I could use it to transfer data to a new computer. Wrong. The dang thing was only good for backup...

B-B-But I like to think of myself as a most sterling fellow. I suppose we all do. At least I have no weapons in my possession, happy to say that I rid myself of them many decades ago. I'm also happy to say that I learned long ago not to look for trouble. If you are foolish enough to seek it out...

Rocket Raccoon now inhabits the pantheon of science-fiction heroes. How can you not like the character? Groot unfolds in a very cool role. I have the BluRay, must have watched it four times, your "I guess they struck the right note between the imaginative and the stupid" is a very good...

It would make for much faster disk access if you installed that hard drive in your box, connected to the motherboard port along with the other sparkling new goodies! Oops, I failed to notice that it was a USB drive and not an internal drive. Sorry, my mistake. Please ignore the first sentence...

I barely remember a whisper of Mr Peepers. I do remember that Wally Cox was a very likable actor. Beaten up by thugs? I recall being bullied in various elementary schools, punches to the face did not hurt the way they do as an adult. I turned the tables on some of them by carefully thought out...

Personally speaking, the good Captain offered lessons galore that shocked the crap out of me. I mean, who knew that the world could be so twisted? This suburban white boy had no idea that anyone, artists included could be that outrageously perverted. Come to remember it, I had a Black shrink in...

I remember that you always charged ahead long before I picked up the clue phone, Dan. I'm certain that you and other Members of that long ago active web site always showered sugar plums of knowledge upon us that piqued my curiosity, and made me want a more capable machine. Of course I wanted to...

You were years ahead of me, Daniel! I knew that DOS existed but I started with Win 3.1. I'm told that Win3 was bad in comparison. Watched a Twilight Zone episode from 1964 last night. The depiction of a mainframe was fairly accurate for the time, afaik. The trouble was that this big computer...

After Cpt "Urine" gums attacked Cpt Fatima's ship some of the crew from both ships discovered that "hetero" wasn't all that bad. In those days of old, as they truly are now, outrageous revelations that some people's ideas of "middle of the road" humor didn't match what was acceptable in Peoria...

Thank you ThunderRd, putting posts in the right place really matters!

Sheesh, that chart of supposedly equivalent doses of dangerous substances makes me shiver. I am so glad that I'm not in pain and especially pain great enough to demand narcotics. Ah, Robert Crumb. I was living just north of San Francisco when the days of the hippie started out. Loved his comics...

Must I be ignorant of so much? Never heard of "Viz magazine" from Britain, and I was lucky enough to live there for two years, very long ago. Much Cockney can't be deciphered by Yanks, had not a clue about "two and eight." That $160.00 license must be renewed--Ka-Ching! yearly? WTF, over? Oh...

I'm not cursed with hemorrhoids, thank you God! I understand that they're very annoying at the least and a real agony at their worst. I'm sorry if any of our Members have to live with this. Shazam, Dan~! In a state where "recreational pot" is perfectly legal, you needed to go to the trouble and...

What a fortunate chap you are not! Initial Ramsay Hunt syndrome, followed by decades of postherpethic neuralgia. Good God Daniel~, you really are a living laboratory of Zoster Hell. Starring you! Sheeit, reading the encyclopedia of HORROR that you kindly provided I must confess that I seriously...

Waiting 24 hours for help in an emergency. Best health care anywhere, go USA! Maybe you are quibbling about your supply of pills? Don't think you should, as I said before that's a HUGE pile of Dilaudid. Most prescriptions for that powerful synthetic narcotic consist of 3, THREE pills. I know...

"Good Times" was a tv series that sort of told it like it was to be Black and poor in America. 1974 to 1979 iirc. My best pal really loved it but I found it to be a bit too realistic to enjoy. Norway is particularly blessed in many ways. Sometimes It's said that every citizen is a millionaire...

Dan~, referencing your paraphrased question from your post #14, "tell me if most OD's are caused the fear of of the rush not being big enough to take you away from your fears," is it depends. People taking pain relievers because of real physical pain are totally different from junkies. And...

Sure that's not Norge? Or Norway in English. Fine country and people, they can afford to be more neutral than their rapidly leaning hard right neighbor to the east. No person, place or thing is above the capabilities of Snoopmasters Intl., Inc. Say no more, say no more. Things change as you...

Great wealth and great humans are mutually exclusive. Bill Gates was never a nice guy, as time goes goes by and he becomes richer the worse he gets. TTBMK, his "foundation" does only a very tiny amount of philanthropy. Compared to his fortune his foundation does no charitable work worth...
