Hi Warren, and Ian and others breathlessly reading our
down memorylane of B&W TV shows and also a few movies to boot...
HEY...I see you have a new address now, again somewhere in OZ
at VK6ZRT BBS ... Congrads there mate.

Doesn't that sound like most households, even today, and with
the new TVs out and entertainment centers and part TV and
computer.... one is glued in front, as one moment you
are watching and next a video call on skype.
Our rule was simple...whoever was there first, owned the TV
and we all had to watch along unless you were a kid..then
there was a armed revolution and you were swepted away
and the channel changed...to mmm...lets see....oooh so
many.

Well I was wondering...???? You took my ..That was Hollywood
answer, and then some..hahahahahaha....
As for the WX...agreed. I had some oil dropped off, and
they look after us ok...next comes the wood, and some more
old dead branchs trimmed off the trees, so ....you are
hinting WINTER is NEXT! Oh good-grief Batman...it means
our thermo-layered-Bat uniforms????

Aah my meds cause this.... YES... Cuz only a Vet can
understand what another Vet has been through, thus with
their experience comes wisdom never sought out by our
glorious lawyers turned politician leaders who seem to
be "experts" or have "experts" ...but then thats another
6k of what these "experts" really are, and are not.
Gotta run here... more meds, and things, to get rid of
this Flu bug.
